Boundary Work Tactics and Their Effects on Information and Communication Technology Use After Hours and Recovery
(2023-10-16)
With an increasing use of work-related technologies after hours and mobile working, boundaries between work and personal life domains blur more and more, impairing recovery. Qualitative studies have shown that individuals use various boundary work tactics to actively manage their work–nonwork boundaries. However, it remains largely unknown how the use of such tactics contributes to recovery. This research differentiates types of availability-related boundary work tactics and organizes them according to their underlying ...

Sexuelle Inaktivität und sexuelle Unzufriedenheit bei Paaren in der mittleren Lebensphase nach im Mittel 31 Jahren Beziehungsdauer
(2024-04-30)
Theoretischer Hintergrund. Sexuelle Aktivität und Erleben verändern sich über die Lebensspanne. Unabhängig vom Alter ist ein reduziertes bzw. fehlendes sexuelles Verlangen die am häufigsten berichtete sexuelle Problematik. Es fehlen Studien an Paaren in langjährigen stabilen Partnerschaften. Fragestellung. Ziel war, die sexuelle Inaktivität und Unzufriedenheit von Paaren in der mittleren Lebensphase zu untersuchen. Methode. Es wurden Daten des 18-Jahres Follow-Ups der Längsschnittstudie „Zukunft Familie“ verwendet. ...

The impact of testosterone-lowering medication on recidivism in individuals convicted of sexual offenses
(2024-06-05)
Introduction: Treatment of individuals who have committed sexual offences with Testosterone-Lowering Medication (TLM) is a comparatively intrusive kind of intervention, which regularly takes place in coercive contexts. Thus, the question of efficacy, but also the question of who should be treated, when and for how long, are of great importance. Methods: Recidivism rates of TLM-treated high-risk individuals (þTLM; n¼54) were compared with high-risk individuals treated with psychotherapy only in the same forensic ...

Effectiveness and context dependency of social norm interventions: five field experiments on nudging pro-environmental and pro-social behavior
(2024-06-26)
Social norm interventions hold the potential to change people’s behavior. Five field experiments (N = 1,163) examined the effects of a simple and easily realizable social norm nudge based on the social media format “Be like Bill.” The nudge consisted of a stick figure named Toni that communicated descriptive and injunctive norms regarding pro-environmental or pro-social behaviors. Nudge conditions were compared to no-intervention control conditions. Experiment 1 (N = 179) focused on paper towel consumption in a women’s ...

Wer kann, der coacht: Ein Instrument zur Messung interpersoneller Coach-Fähigkeiten
(2021-06-01)
Es wird ein aus der Psychotherapieforschung stammendes, an Coaching adaptiertes Ratingmanual zur Messung interpersoneller Fähigkeiten vorgestellt. Es wurden Ratings für 18 Audioaufnahmen von dyadischen Coachingsitzungen von neun Coaches-in-Weiterbildung erstellt, die zu Beginn der Weiterbildung und ein Jahr später durchgeführt wurden. Das interpersonelle Verhalten und die Entwicklung der Kompetenzen von zwei Coaches-in-Weiterbildung werden exemplarisch dargestellt. Die Autorinnen ziehen das Fazit, dass sich das ...

Learning with a double-edged sword? beneficial and detrimental effects of learning tests—taking a first look at linkages among tests, later learning outcomes, stress perceptions, and intelligence
(2021-08-31)
It has often been shown that tests as intentionally hindered and difficult learning tasks increase long-term learning compared to easier tasks. Previous work additionally indicated that higher intelligence might serve as a prerequisite for such beneficial effects of tests. Nevertheless, despite their long-term learning effects, tests were also found to be evaluated as more negative and to lead to more stress and anxiety compared to easier control tasks. Stress and anxiety, in turn, often yield detrimental effects on ...

Validation of cognitive load during inquiry-based learning with multimedia scaffolds using subjective measurement and eye movements
(2021-08-31)
Subject-method barriers and cognitive load (CL) of students have a particular importance in the complex learning process of scientific inquiry. In this work, we investigate the valid measurement of CL as well as different scaffolds to reduce it during experimentation. Specifically, we examine the validity of a subjective measurement instrument to assess CL [in extraneous cognitive load (ECL), intrinsic cognitive load, and germane cognitive load (GCL)] during the use of multimedia scaffolds in the planning phase of ...

Flexible Adaptation of Leader Behavior
(2021-06-01)
Based on the model of ambidextrous leadership, we investigated the impact of flexible adaptation of leader behavior, that is, opening and closing leader behaviors, on innovative performance in a laboratory experiment. Leader behaviors were manipulated with confederates attending to one participant showing either no leadership, a sequential, or a flexible application of opening and closing leader behaviors. We hypothesized that flexible adaptation leads to better innovation performance. N = 93 participants took part ...

Depression, Race-Based Bias, and Judgements of Veracity
(2023-07-26)
The depressive realism hypothesis suggests that depressed individuals have a more realistic perception than nondepressed. Most studies depict the effects of depressive realism on self-perceptions. However, some lie detection studies suggest the effects of depressive realism on the perception of others. Our study investigated the hypothesis that individuals with subclinical depression levels (dysphoric) show a heightened accuracy in lie detection and a lower truth bias. Furthermore, we expected these effects to be ...

The Road to Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions: How Common Practices in Scale Construction Hurt Validity
(2022-09-29)
Sound scale construction is pivotal to the measurement of psychological constructs. Common item sampling procedures emphasize aspects of reliability to the disadvantage of aspects of validity, which are less tangible. We use a health knowledge test as an example to demonstrate how item sampling strategies that focus on either factor saturation or construct coverage influence scale composition and demonstrate how to find a trade-off between these two opposing needs. More specifically, we compile three 75-item health ...
