Amazon's Mechanical Turk
Tập 6 Số 1 - Trang 3-5 - 2011
Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is a relatively new website that contains the
major elements required to conduct research: an integrated participant
compensation system; a large participant pool; and a streamlined process of
study design, participant recruitment, and data collection. In this article, we
describe and evaluate the potential contributions of MTurk to psychology and
other social scie...
Loneliness and Social Isolation as Risk Factors for Mortality
Tập 10 Số 2 - Trang 227-237 - 2015
Actual and perceived social isolation are both associated with increased risk
for early mortality. In this meta-analytic review, our objective is to establish
the overall and relative magnitude of social isolation and loneliness and to
examine possible moderators. We conducted a literature search of studies
(January 1980 to February 2014) using MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Social Work
Abstracts, and...
Rethinking Rumination
Tập 3 Số 5 - Trang 400-424 - 2008
The response styles theory ( Nolen-Hoeksema, 1991 ) was proposed to explain the
insidious relationship between rumination and depression. We review the aspects
of the response styles theory that have been well-supported, including evidence
that rumination exacerbates depression, enhances negative thinking, impairs
problem solving, interferes with instrumental behavior, and erodes social
support. N...
Dual-Process Theories of Higher Cognition
Tập 8 Số 3 - Trang 223-241 - 2013
Dual-process and dual-system theories in both cognitive and social psychology
have been subjected to a number of recently published criticisms. However, they
have been attacked as a category, incorrectly assuming there is a generic
version that applies to all. We identify and respond to 5 main lines of argument
made by such critics. We agree that some of these arguments have force against
some of ...
Toward a Psychology of Human Agency
Tập 1 Số 2 - Trang 164-180 - 2006
This article presents an agentic theory of human development, adaptation, and
change. The evolutionary emergence of advanced symbolizing capacity enabled
humans to transcend the dictates of their immediate environment and made them
unique in their power to shape their life circumstances and the courses their
lives take. In this conception, people are contributors to their life
circumstances, not j...
Thiền chánh niệm tác động như thế nào? Đề xuất cơ chế hoạt động từ góc độ khái niệm và thần kinh học Dịch bởi AI
Tập 6 Số 6 - Trang 537-559 - 2011
Việc rèn luyện chánh niệm, tức là sự nhận thức không phán xét về những trải
nghiệm trong giây phút hiện tại, mang lại những tác động tích cực đến sức khỏe
và cải thiện các triệu chứng liên quan đến tâm thần và căng thẳng. Do đó, thiền
chánh niệm ngày càng được đưa vào các can thiệp tâm lý trị liệu. Mặc dù số lượng
công trình nghiên cứu trong lĩnh vực này đã tăng vọt trong hai thập kỷ qua,
nhưng vẫ...
The Power of Personality: The Comparative Validity of Personality Traits, Socioeconomic Status, and Cognitive Ability for Predicting Important Life Outcomes
Tập 2 Số 4 - Trang 313-345 - 2007
The ability of personality traits to predict important life outcomes has
traditionally been questioned because of the putative small effects of
personality. In this article, we compare the predictive validity of personality
traits with that of socioeconomic status (SES) and cognitive ability to test the
relative contribution of personality traits to predictions of three critical
outcomes: mortalit...
Are Emotions Natural Kinds?
Tập 1 Số 1 - Trang 28-58 - 2006
Laypeople and scientists alike believe that they know anger, or sadness, or
fear, when they see it. These emotions and a few others are presumed to have
specific causal mechanisms in the brain and properties that are observable (on
the face, in the voice, in the body, or in experience)—that is, they are assumed
to be natural kinds. If a given emotion is a natural kind and can be identified
objecti...
Self-Determination Theory Applied to Health Contexts
Tập 7 Số 4 - Trang 325-340 - 2012
Behavior change is more effective and lasting when patients are autonomously
motivated. To examine this idea, we identified 184 independent data sets from
studies that utilized self-determination theory (SDT; Deci & Ryan, 2000) in
health care and health promotion contexts. A meta-analysis evaluated relations
between the SDT-based constructs of practitioner support for patient autonomy
and patients...
A Review of Facebook Research in the Social Sciences
Tập 7 Số 3 - Trang 203-220 - 2012
With over 800 million active users, Facebook is changing the way hundreds of
millions of people relate to one another and share information. A rapidly
growing body of research has accompanied the meteoric rise of Facebook as social
scientists assess the impact of Facebook on social life. In addition,
researchers have recognized the utility of Facebook as a novel tool to observe
behavior in a natur...
