Familiarity increases subjective positive affect even in non-affective and non-evaluative contextsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 40 - Trang 638-645 - 2016
Teresa Garcia-Marques, Marília Prada, Diane M. Mackie
Previous research shows that the experience of familiarity involves the experience of positive affect. In two experiments we clarify and extend this research by showing that the experience of familiarity involves the experience of positive affect even when the nature of the experimental task is non-affective and non-evaluative and even when participants are actively performing other cognitive oper...... hiện toàn bộ
Values, expectations, and the prediction of social action: An expectancy-valence analysisSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 217-244 - 1982
N. T. Feather, James W. Newton
Two studies were conducted to test hypotheses about the relationship of values to action within the context of expectancy-valence theory. In these studies, university students who had previously completed the Rokeach Value Survey answered questionnaires that related to social movement organizations and that contained attitude items, expectancy items, and measures of willingness to assist these org...... hiện toàn bộ
Social motives, attributions and expectations as predictors of the decision to participate in a speed-dating eventSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 43 - Trang 610-624 - 2019
Jana Nikitin, Xianmin Gong, Simone Schoch, Alexandra M. Freund
Two studies investigated the role of dispositional social approach and avoidance motives (i.e., what people generally desire and fear in social relationships) for the decision to participate in a speed-dating event. In a sample of N = 205 college students (Study 1), approach motives were positively and avoidance motives negatively associated with the decision to participate in a speed-dating event...... hiện toàn bộ
A frustration effect with adult humans?Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 117-127 - 1979
Jeral R. Williams, Stanley C. Geison
In two investigations, the relationship of delays in response opportunity to response latencies was examined. On the basis of a generalized drive approach it was expected that the longer the delays, the greater the frustration, and that consequently the response latencies would be reduced. It was further hypothesized that the frustration effect would be enhanced for Internal locus of control subje...... hiện toàn bộ
Perceptions of similarity between striving tasks and the generality of task preferencesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 181-192 - 1977
Daniel Solomon
Ninth graders rated their degree of liking for each of 12 striving tasks and, on another occasion, rated their perceptions of the similarity between each pair of tasks. Analyses of variance revealed strong PersonX Task interactions, suggesting the possibility of individual differences in task preference generality. A derived measure of task preference generality-specificity related significantly t...... hiện toàn bộ
Directional discrepancy between implicit and explicit power motives is related to well-being among managersSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 35 - Trang 317-327 - 2011
Miguel Kazén, Julius Kuhl
This study investigates explicit –implicit motive discrepancies and their effect on well-being. Participants were 382 executive managers (107 females and 275 males). Female managers had higher explicit affiliation scores than males, whereas male managers had marginally significant higher explicit power scores than females. Males and females did not differ in their implicit motives. We expected a d...... hiện toàn bộ
Social anxiety, emotion, and helping behaviorSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 225-233 - 1977
Robert W. McPeek, Robert B. Cialdini
The present study tested the hypothesis that while moderately socially anxious persons would demonstrate enhanced helping activity following the perpetration or observation of harm, low socially anxious individuals would not. This hypothesis was supported, suggesting that harm-produced helping is emotionally mediated. A self-report MACL measure of mood states, however, failed to reveal consistent ...... hiện toàn bộ
