▼ A large amount of evidence from psychology and economics shows that individuals' behaviors systematically deviate from the standard economic theory which assumes full consciousness. In order to study the limitations in consciousness, I investigate human cognition and consciousness theoretically and experimentally in the four chapters of this thesis. In the first chapter, building on the works of Carrillo and Mariotti (2000) and Benabou and Tirole (2002), I formulate an intra-person, multiple-self model of how motivated memory including amnesia and delusion may relate to the individual's degree of present bias. I posit the notion of (non-)conscious choice in which the individual habituates into being forgetful or delusional to enhance the motivation for one's future selves. In equilibrium, the model endogenizes the individual's state of motivated memory and particularly delusion resulting from a high level of present bias. In chapter two, I extend Benabou and Tirole (2002)'s model by incorporating the possibility of interaction between players on cooperation to study the relation between memory bias, self-confidence and social behavior. In the third chapter, I design a controlled incentivized experiment using the Ravens IQ test to test the theory introduced in the first chapter. I find overall support for its implications except for the significant incidence of positive confabulation. This leads me to extend my basic model to capture this possibility as an equilibrium outcome. In the last chapter, I conduct experiment to study different measures of cognitive ability, compare the culture and gender difference in cognition, and test the relations between cognitive ability and some other decision making traits, like time preference, risk preference, etc.

▼ This study examines the role of emotional awareness in the retirement transition. Retirement is viewed as one of the transitions in later life and has psychological consequences. It is an objective development and social-psychological transformation that is related to physical and psychological well-being. Research has shown that emotional awareness can have an impact on the retirement transition. A correlational research survey design was used for this study to determine and establish the role of emotional awareness, preparation and emotional responses in the retirement transition. Using a five-point Likert Scale, respondents were asked to score their responses to twenty-eight items. The questionnaire was distributed to retirees on the data bases of two financial companies that manage retirement funds. The SurveyMonkey application was used to distribute the survey to one financial company’s data base, and email was used for the other. Statistics such as means, relationships between factors, Cronbach’s Alpha, Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation and descriptive statistics were used to analyse the data. The findings of this study demonstrate inconclusive evidence of emotional awareness in retirement. In addition to this, there were no significant findings regarding preparation for retirement or emotional response to retirement which indicates a neutral attitude to preparation and retirement, on average. There is a need for further future studies that include a more balanced sample representation of men and women, a comparative study based on different cultures to determine if differences exist in the experience of emotions in the retirement transition, and a field study in retirement homes and villages to corroborate the findings of this study.

▼ This exploratory-descriptive study, using multiple case studies, investigated the self-esteem, coping and psychology of infertility of a sample of individuals who have received infertility treatment at a privately managed health care unit. Infertility is a complex condition associated with the inability to conceive a child, frequently manifesting itself as a result of various biological factors. A literature review indicated that being on Artificial Reproductive Technology (ART) treatment significantly increases the stress in an individual. In an attempt to gain insight into the way patients undergoing infertility treatment find the strength to complete their treatment cycles, and to endure and overcome the pressures associated therewith, in order to continue their lives – in spite of a negative treatment/pregnancy result, the researcher found it necessary to investigate the self-esteem, coping and the psychology of patients undergoing infertility treatment. An exploratory descriptive research design was used and the participants were chosen by means of a non-probability purposive sampling procedure. The participants were given a package of questionnaires to complete under the supervision of the group facilitator and researcher, prior to, as well as after the intervention. The assessment consisted of a biographical questionnaire and two standardised paper and pencil measures. The participants’ self-esteem was explored using James Battle’s (1981) Culture-Free Self-Esteem Inventory; while the coping resources were explored using Hammer and Marting’s (1988) Coping Resource Inventory (CRI). Although these data were not analysable, due to the small sample size, it was utilised in a qualitative manner to support the findings from the qualitative data. The data were also gathered from the participants via a
psychological intervention programme in the format of three focus group sessions. All the qualitative results were analysed, according to Tesch’s model of content analysis. The general finding was that the period of infertility treatment is experienced as both difficult and challenging by individuals, and that there is immense healing in the sharing of one’s narrative with other infertility patients. It also surfaced that selfesteem,
especially one’s feelings of worth, is most affected by a diagnosis of infertility, as well as by going through the roller coaster of the emotions associated with the treatment and monthly cycle of infertility. It was evident from the narratives told by the participants that every domain of one’s self-esteem is affected by a diagnosis of infertility, and that the biggest challenge in maintaining a positive selfesteem seemed to be in finding a balance between one’s real self and one’s ideal self. Furthermore, this study found that the challenge related to coping for the participants in this study was to present a coherent life narrative to the ‘world’, despite intense feelings of being misunderstood by others, and being faced with the discourse of infertility, as part of one’s life script.…

▼ The concept of "flow" as it relates to performance was
first introduced and described in the 1970's by Mihaly
Csikszentmihalyi. When experiencing flow during a particular task,
an individual is focused on and consumed with the task the
individual is currently involved in. In sport and physical
activity, flow has been related to increased enjoyment and
performance. Previous research on flow in physical activity has
primarily focused on elite level athletes. However, it is expected
that flow can be experienced by anyone during almost any activity.
The purpose of this research is to observe flow in recreationally
active individuals and attempt to identify potential personal
predictors of flow such as age and gender. The results of this
study will provide insight into factors that influence flow as well
as inform future research in the field. The results demonstrated
that the recreational participants (n=144) experienced a
significantly greater level of flow than the population means
provided for the Flow State Scale (FSS-2), t (143) = 12.79, p =
.000 this is an exciting finding; showing that recreationally
active individuals are a viable sample for conducting future
research on flow. Ages of participants (18-61) was not observed to
be an insignificant predictor to experiencing flow p < .05.
There was however, a significant difference in flow as a function
of gender, f (1,142) = 1.65, p < .05. When looking at the gender
effects of flow it was observed that not all of the 9 dimensions
were significant: Concentration, Loss of Self Consciousness, Time
Transformation, and the Autotelic Experience dimensions each had
insignificant differences between gender and flow, male
participants had significantly greater level of global flow, and in
the other five dimensions: Challenge-Skill Balance,
Action-Awareness Merging, Clear Goals, Unambiguous Feedback, Sense
of Control. The results of this study may be used to design future
testing methods in flow research, designed to isolate the
experience of the unique dimensions of flow. Additionally these
findings can inform program designs looking into researching flow,
in that flow can be observed significantly in recreationally active
adults of almost any age after an acute rigorous group activity.
Future research could aim to reproduce these findings at different
recreational group events, or even in the lab setting, and further
observe the effects of the nine dimensions of flow.; Age, Flow,

▼ Background: Cognitive problems such as forgetfulness, concentration difficulty, and inattention are commonly reported among women in or around the menopause transition. However, objective neurocognitive data do not consistently corroborate subjective cognitive complaints, nor do they effectively distinguish women in different reproductive stages. Further assessments must be conducted to determine the specific cognitive changes occurring around the menopause transition in comparison to other reproductive stages (e.g., late postmenopause). Furthermore, non-pharmacological methods for addressing reported cognitive difficulties should be explored. Aims: The primary study aim (Aim 1) was to evaluate cross-sectional differences in subjective and objective cognitive function among women in perimenopause (irregular menstruation to 1 year after the final menstrual period), early postmenopause (1-5 years after the final menstrual period) and late menopause (> 5 years after the final menstrual period). The secondary aim (Aim 2) was to compare changes in cognitive function and physical activity among women who completed a six-month physical activity intervention. Hypotheses: It was hypothesized that women in perimenopause would score lower on tests of attention and working memory than women in postmenopause. It was also hypothesized that increases in physical activity would be significantly associated with improvements on attention and working memory tasks. Procedure: Forty-five women age 40 to 63 (mean age = 53.6 years) were recruited for a six-month, group-based intervention designed to help midlife women increase sustained aerobic activity. Neurocognitive and physical activity assessments occurred at baseline and 6 months. Participants were given weekly exercise prescriptions, gradually working toward 250 minutes of MVPA per week. Measures: The following neurocognitive domains were evaluated using clinician-administered tests: Global cognition (MoCA) and intelligence (WTAR), attention and working memory (Letter N-Back computer test; Digit Span), verbal learning and memory (Selective Reminding Test), verbal fluency (COWA), and executive function (Trails A and B). Physical activity was quantified by seven-day ActiGraph GT3X accelerometer readings. Statistical Analyses: Regression and ANOVA tests were performed (using the GLM procedure in SPSS), in addition to Pearson’s r correlations. Results: At baseline, women in early postmenopause showed significantly worse verbal memory performance than women in perimenopause or late postmenopause (p < .05), controlling for age, mood, and sleep quality. At six months, women in early postmenopause showed significantly greater improvement in verbal memory than women in perimenopause (p = .048). Reproductive stage also significantly predicted changes in verbal fluency after controlling for covariates. Self-reported improvement in concentration was also significantly associated with improved verbal fluency scores at 6 months (p = .004). While physical activity was not significantly associated…

Motivation and emotion dysregulation associated with pathological exercise among individuals with eating disorder psychopathology.

▼ Pathological exercise, or exercise that is pursued in a rigid, compulsive, or extreme fashion, is omnipresent in eating disorder psychopathology. Despite this, minimal guidance exists in current treatment manuals for shaping pathological exercise behavior, which has led clinicians to prescribe total abstinence until treatment concludes. The purpose of this study was to better characterize pathological exercise using two relevant descriptive constructs – emotion regulation and motivation – to increase the specificity with which both pathological and healthy exercise is described, to ultimately inform treatment interventions. The present study aimed to identify types of motivation associated with exercise in a sample of college women (n=200) and a sample of adult women in the community with eating disorder psychopathology (n=211). Latent profile analysis was used to characterize homogenous groups of individuals based on exercise motivation. These profiles were then compared on levels of eating and general psychopathology and emotion regulation difficulties. Three profiles emerged describing a sedentary, athlete, and eating disordered group in the first sample, and five profiles describing a sedentary, athlete, AN-like, weight loss, and healthy group were identified in the second sample. In both samples, the athlete group exhibited intrinsic motivation for exercise and scored significantly lower than the other groups on levels of general psychopathology, while the eating disordered groups displayed identified and extrinsic motivation for exercise and scored significantly higher than the other groups on body dissatisfaction and cognitive restraint. Findings indicate that motivation style may be a salient factor in defining pathological exercise and may also therefore be a clinically useful treatment target. Future studies should investigate the dynamic nature of motivation longitudinal throughout the course of illness.

▼ Cancer patient's initial appraisal of the disease (i.e., as a threat, harm, or challenge), as well as their level of hope, has been linked to patients' coping strategies (i.e. approach or avoidance coping). However, it is unclear whether the well-established relationship between primary appraisals and coping in moderated by cancer patients' levels of hope. To determine if hope moderated this realationship, colorectal cancer patients (N=122) completed measures of appraisals and hope following their diagnosis and a measure of coping six-months later. Results indicated that patients appraised cancer as more of a challenge than a threat reported high levels of baseline hope. both challenge appraisals and baseline higher hope predicted approach coming six months later, however, hope did not moderate the relationship between appraisals and coping. This study highlights may of the conceptual, design, and psychometric problems present when measuring appraisals, hope, and coping among cancer patients.

▼ Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major health burden, accounting for 12% of total healthcare expenditures worldwide. Recent forecasts estimate that 1 in 10 people will suffer from the condition by 2040. These figures are of great concern, particularly when T2DM has the potential to be well-controlled. By adhering to self-management behaviour, i.e. by making appropriate lifestyle changes, people with T2DM can delay and often prevent the onset of disease-related complications. However, in practice, many patients remain poorly controlled and the most effective method to motivate sustained adherence to self-management is unclear. Among recent motivation strategies, those informed by behavioural economics have raised growing interest in many different areas. The core principle of behavioural economics is to identify specific errors in the way people make decisions (i.e. specific deviations from standard economic rationality) and target these to steer people's choices towards a given (recommended) direction. Following this approach, I aim to develop an innovative behavioural economic-informed intervention for people with T2DM with the objective of motivating sustained adherence to self-management in this population. The first part of the Thesis was concerned with investigating the factors known to have an influence on patients' decision to adhere to self-management. Firstly, I systematically reviewed all studies exploring the risk perceptions for diabetes-related complications in T2DM populations. I found that patients tend to largely underestimate their risks, especially those for cardiovascular complications, and express an optimistic bias (i.e. they tend to feel less at risk than their peers). Given the positive association between risk perceptions and adherence to self-management, these findings suggested the need for more effective risk communication addressed to this population. As a result, I further explored the decision-making processes of people with T2DM to identify relevant behavioural economic material. I measured the risk attitudes under prospect theory of 120 individuals, half of whom were diagnosed with T2DM. Focusing on a hypothetical trade-off between health outcomes and self-management, I found that patients express strong risk and loss aversion. This suggested that non-adherence to self-management may not be explained by a particular risk-seeking behaviour in this population. Consequently, this confirmed the need for better risk communication. In the second part of the Thesis, I developed an innovative risk communication tool entitled PERCODIA. Informed by the behavioural economic findings of the first part, PERCODIA is aimed to better deliver personalised risk information to people with T2DM. I first reviewed the risk communication literature to identify the best ways of taking advantage of these behavioural economic findings. Both the content and the format of the tool were selected for this purpose. I then designed and conducted a pilot randomised control trial (RCT) to assess the feasibility of…

▼ This thesis addressed two issues within the performance anxiety literature. The first half of this thesis examined the use of holistic process goals relative to part process goals. The second half of the thesis examined issues associated with the measurement of performance anxiety. The aims of the thesis were to: (a) establish further support for the efficacy of holistic process goals over part process goals, (b) investigate athletes' cognitive anxiety responses to a stressful event, and (c) develop and test a measure of performance anxiety. The thesis comprised of four empirical studies that utilised a range of quantitative and qualitative methodological approaches. Study 1 examined holistic process goals and part process goals in learning, retention and transfer test, whilst study 2 examined both process goals for skilled but anxious athletes. Study 2 also included two psychophysiological measures. The findings of study 1 and 2 provide support for the efficacy of holistic process goals, but provided no evidence that part process goal impaired performance. As such, the measurement of performance anxiety was highlighted as a potentially limiting factor in experimental designs. Therefore, the second half of the thesis focused on addressing this issue. Specifically, study 3 used qualitative interviews to explore the cognitive dimension of the athletes' performance anxiety response. The study revealed that the cognitive dimension contained worry, private self-focus and public self-focus components. Subsequently, study 4 presents a re-examination of Cheng, Hardy, and Markland's (2009) model of performance anxiety using a hierarchical structure of three second order dimensions and six first order subcomponents. The results of partial least squares structural analysis supported a fully differentiated hierarchical model of performance anxiety. Therefore, the results of this thesis provide further support for the efficacy of holistic process goals and a re-conceptualization of performance anxiety.

▼ This study examines spontaneous irony in elicited conversations between dyads assigned to three groups: left-hemisphere-damaged (LHD), right-hemisphere-damaged (RHD), and non-hemisphere-damaged (NHD). The conversational partners in all three groups were non-hemisphere-damaged. Subjects were also administered a battery of neuropsychological tests designed to assess functions hypothesized to underlie the successful communication of irony and sarcasm (i.e., recognition of auditory patterns and facial displays conveying emotions, speed of processing, and comprehension of nonliteral language). Spontaneous irony involves a set of utterances in conversation that is not meant to be interpreted literally and can include such devices as irony, sarcasm, punning, and hyperbole. The communication of spontaneous irony in normal speakers is accomplished through a quick, tight coordination of behavioural and/or prosodic features. For a variety of reasons this coordination may break down when one of the speakers has brain damage. This study found that the rate of production of irony was significantly less in the two clinical groups as compared to the control group with no significant difference between the LHD and RHD groups. There was no significant difference amongst the groups in terms of success of communication; all three had a success rate of approximately 90 per cent. Individual profiles were examined to determine whether any patterns emerged in the test results, however, no pattern unique to the clinical subjects with the lowest rates of irony emerged. When the conversations were examined in more detail, it was found that the NHD partners in the clinical groups produced a significantly lower rate of irony than the NHD partners in the control group. The rate was also significantly lower than the rate of irony of the clinical subjects. These results suggest that the NHD partners adjust their content when their partners have had brain damage. Part of this adjustment may be due to the accommodation, described in previous literature, that occurs in interactions between disabled and nondisabled individuals. However, further exploration suggests that in addition to this overall accommodation there may be an adjustment that is dependent on whether the partner has had left or right hemisphere damage. Features present in the LHD group were pauses and paraphasias leading to disruptions in turntaking. These were not present in the RHD group which consisted of fluent speakers with no disruptions in turntaking. However, a reduction in discourse-oriented facial displays and prosodic features and a tendency toward tangential speech may act to change the quality of conversations in the RHD group. These
aspects would have to be studied objectively in a future study to determine whether they were upheld.

▼ Mindfulness has been the most robustly examined contemplative practice, with empirical studies on the topic exponentially increasing. Despite the popularity of mindfulness, other types of contemplation have remained unstudied. The current study examined a specific contemplative practice originating from the Catholic Jesuit tradition, the Ignatian examen, and its impact on self-transcendent positive emotions, eudaimonic motivation, and the moderating role of autonomous interpersonal style on these effects. It additionally examined a specific self-transcendent positive emotion, elevation, and its relation to interpersonal relationship goals. Prior to the current study, there have been no known empirical studies on the impact of practicing the Ignatian examen. The study found that daily elevation was associated with more compassionate interpersonal goals, in the context of completing the Ignatian examen. It also found mixed results for how practicing the examen influences how much people experience and value self-transcendent positive emotions. There were not significant results related to change in eudaimonic motivation or autonomy as a moderator, but there were interesting main effects of autonomy, indicating that those who valued autonomy more experienced STPE less often. This study highlights the utility of studying the Ignatian examen, and contemplative practices outside of mindfulness more generally, as they can influence domains of human experience. The exploratory analyses suggest that there are many directions for future research that may be fruitful, particularly related to autonomous interpersonal style.

▼ It was hypothesized that people who like rock music will be more enthusiastic in their mood responses
to all types of music than people who like classical music. The mood responses of the rock group will be greater (in group percentage) than the mood responses of an equally numbered classical group. The subjects included 115 students enrolled in introductory psychology classes, fulfilling a course requirement at California State University, Sacramento, during the fall semester of 1975. There were 63 female and 52 male subjects, with an age range of 16 to 55 years, and a mean age of 21 years. A 34-minute presentation of 6 musical selections, 3-classical and 3 rock pieces, was used. The
music was played on a Rek-O-Kui turntable, a Fisher Receiver, and an ADC speaker. The 3 classical pieces were played first, followed by the 3 rock pieces. These selections were chosen to represent a cross
section of musical types. All songs were played in their entirety. A 3-minute interval of silence followed each recording to give the subjects time to record their response to the music.

▼ The present investigation sought to address the paucity of longitudinal retirement adjustment research in relation to the social resources of retirees, and how change in these resources may affect the degree of retirement adjustment quality they experience. This study was a secondary analysis with an observational, repeated measures design conducted on the 2006 and 2014 data waves of the Health, Work, and Retirement (HWR) study (Alpass et al., 2007). From a resource-based dynamic perspective, retirement adjustment can be viewed as a longitudinal process which fluctuates as a function of given resources and changes in such resources (Wang, Henkens, & van Solinge, 2011). Guided by this theoretical framework, the primary focus of this investigation was to examine if change in perceived social support would mediate the relationships between job-related conditions (i.e., job satisfaction and job stress) and post-retirement psychological wellbeing across the period of 2006 – 2014. The sample (n = 435) was drawn from the HWR study’s 2006 nationally representative sub-sample of the general New Zealand older adult population. Participants were male and female New Zealanders, aged between 55 – 70 years in 2006, and were of New Zealand European, Māori, Asian, or other ethnicity. Participants were in paid employment at the time of the 2006 data wave, and had entered retirement at the time of the 2014 data wave. Cross-sectional analyses of the 2006 wave were also undertaken to determine whether the theorised relationships between the principal constructs were supported at the cusp of the retirement transition before participants retired. These analyses indicated the relationship between job satisfaction and psychological wellbeing appeared to operate indirectly via perceived social support, as did the relationship between job stress and psychological wellbeing. However, longitudinal mediation analyses did not support the resource-based dynamic model of retirement adjustment. Recommendations for measuring adjustment outcomes and resources at multiple assessment points, measure selection and construct domain sampling, improving capacity for causal inference, and using alternative data analytic strategies are made for future research adopting a resource-based dynamic perspective.

▼ The CIP Model of Leadership has received increased attention within the past decade. Research in this area has examined how leaders develop mental models, frame messages, communicate goals, and utilize political tactics to form relationships with followers and impact society in a meaningful way. However, discussion of how CIP leader types use emotions and influence tactics to influence followers and affect society is notably absent in the literature. To fill this gap, the current effort focuses on how charismatic, ideological, and pragmatic leaders differ in their use of emotional displays and influence tactics while maintaining similar levels of communication effectiveness, follower satisfaction, and leadership effectiveness. Results suggest that the emotional displays and influence tactics that leader use successfully discriminate between CIP leader types and create distinct leader styles. Implications of these findings are also discussed.

▼ This dissertation concerns the formation and the consequences of people’s beliefs and preferences. Empirically and experimentally, I focus on individuals’ beliefs and ideologies through mechanisms such as group dynamics, education, and educational content. In Chapter 2, I conduct a laboratory experiment in which subjects play a variant of a public goods game without free-riding incentives. With no private information, the prospect of investment in the experiment involves self-evaluation of uncertain personal and group types, which depend on performance on a pretest. I compare subjects’ individual investment decisions with their decisions when in groups. Timing and structure of communication are the two dimensions of controlled treatments. The results suggest that individuals tend to invest more often and that they increase their subjective beliefs of being a “high” type when in groups, especially when group decisions are made prior to individual decisions. Chapter 3 estimates the causal effect of education on religiosity in the United States using NLSY97. Fixed effects and instrumental variable method are used as identification strategies. Although cross-sectional ordinary least squares estimation shows a positive correlation between religious outcomes and educational attainment, both fixed effect models and IV estimation show statistically significant negative effects of education, even when cognitive test score is controlled. This suggests that conventional OLS omits factors that push both education and religiosity. In Chapter 4, I employ a regression discontinuity design and make use of a quasi-experimental approach by looking at the 1997 junior high school curriculum reform, “Knowing Taiwan,” to examine the impacts of the increased focus on Taiwan in the textbooks on a variety of civic engagement and national identity in favor of Taiwan. Data is from the Taiwan Social Change Survey. I find a significant positive effect of the new curriculum on national identity. However, most measures of civic participation of the treatment group do not exhibit jumps because of the textbook reform.

▼ Intolerance of uncertainty is a far-reaching – yet not widely examined – construct with both clinical (e.g., PTSD) and nonclinical (e.g., political intolerance) associations. Much of the existing research has demonstrated methods that increase intolerance of uncertainty, but far fewer methods that have been able to increase its opposite, tolerance of uncertainty, which would likely have beneficial effects. The current study attempted to address this lack by implementing a brief intervention designed to increase tolerance of uncertainty. The intervention consisted of reading a short parable and subsequently reflecting on an instance in one’s life that was uncertain at the time but ultimately turned out well. The experimental condition (n = 50) was compared to an active control condition (n = 50). Results demonstrated the opposite of the primary hypothesis: the intervention significantly increased intolerance of uncertainty (vs. increased tolerance of uncertainty), and also marginally significantly increased political intolerance. Results confirmed a secondary hypothesis, that those higher in mindfulness were higher in tolerance of uncertainty. These findings suggest unexpected factors that might contribute to intolerance of uncertainty, as well as potential directions for future research. The study indicates that investigations of longer-term interventions, especially those that include training in mindfulness, might be particularly warranted.

▼ Verbal fluency tasks are used extensively in clinical settings because of their sensitivity to a wide variety of disorders, including cognitive decline and dementia, and their usefulness in differential diagnoses. However, the effects of bilingualism on neuropsychological assessment, and verbal fluency in particular, are currently not completely understood. There is an increasing need to examine bilingualisms role in assessing verbal fluency due to the rapidly growing Hispanic population within the United States. This study investigated the performance of bilingual Hispanics in phonemic fluency compared to monolingual European-Americans using the Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT). Both the standard letters of 'F', 'A', and 'S' and alternative letters were tested in an attempt to find letters that would be linguistically and culturally fair for both monolinguals and bilinguals. Various
aspects of bilingualism, such as language dominance and age of acquisition of a second language, as well as acculturative factors, were examined to determine their influences on phonemic fluency. Results revealed that both language dominance and age of acquisition heavily influence phonemic fluency performance for Hispanic bilinguals. Bilingual students who were English dominant or balanced bilingual scored on par with the monolingual students. Also, bilingual students who learned their second language by the age of six performed better than those who learned their second language later. The acculturative factors of social affiliation and ethnic identification affected performance as well. Early age of acquisition bilingual participants who were better acculturated to mainstream society scored higher in phonemic fluency than those who were not as well acculturated. These results pinpoint the clinical importance of obtaining a full linguistic background of a bilingual client in order to interpret verbal fluency performance accurately so that the client may be properly diagnosed and treated.

"Impulse buying is a critical and widespread phenomenon in consumer behavior and is considered a pervasive and distinctive aspect of consumers' lifestyles in the USA (Nguyen, et al., 2003).To increase their revenue, retailers make efforts to encourage consumers to make impulse purchases through point-of-purchase displays, price reduction promotions or coupons (Abratt & Goodey, 1990). A scarcity appeal, one powerful selling tactic for retailers, has not been tested as an in-store stimuli to assess whether it could increase impulsive purchasing. This study suggests that providing an in-store promotion under a scarcity condition will increase consumer's impulsive buying and uncover mechanisms that explain this purchase behavior...

▼ There is a popular lay-belief that consumers always strive to repair their negative mood. However, one can think of contrary instances where people seek out melancholic music when they feel sad, or choose to remain miserable when something frustrates them. My dissertation proposes that people vary considerably in the degree to which they need to feel better when they experience negative feelings. Specifically, my dissertation advances current understanding of why certain individuals do not engage in mood repair. It also allows us to decipher when people would form judgments and decisions in a mood-congruent versus mood-incongruent manner, thereby accounting for the lack of robustness of mood repair effects. To this end, I advance a construct called the "Need to Feel Better" (NFB), and propose four distinct facets of NFB that individuals differ on: 1) behavioral tendency to repair bad moods, 2) aversion to negative feelings, 3) pleasure derived from negative feelings, and 4) tendency to reflect on negative feelings. I also propose a scale that measures this construct and the four facets it encompasses. My dissertation shows that NFB is associated with stronger preference for common mood repair activities such as leisure shopping and exercise. It is also associated with certain demographics (e.g., age and gender), personality traits (e.g., extraversion and agreeableness), and self-regulation constructs (e.g., promotion-focus). NFB also predicts people's tendency to engage in mood repair when they experience negative moods and their attitudes towards mood lifting appeals. From a managerial standpoint, this work provides insights for the marketing of "feel-good" products (e.g., aromatherapy and vacation packages) and the use of mood repair appeals (e.g., Volkswagen's "Get Happy" Super Bowl commercial and the "Look Good Feel Better" campaign for women with cancer by the cosmetics industry).

▼ Purpose: Exercise, particularly higher intensity or competitive exercise, depends on the interaction of a template or plan. This plan determines how to go about the exercise and feedback from the body determines how the exercise bout is affecting the body. In well-trained people the interaction between template and feedback is very sophisticated, and allows exercise performance to be optimized. The 'language', which the brain apparently speaks in terms of this template and feedback, can be understood in terms of Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE). Motivational music has generally been shown to augment exercise performance. The purpose of this study is to determine if motivation music, used as a strategy to manipulate the template-feedback system, during a cycle time trial, will change performance. Methods: (N=18) mean age= 27.6 +/- 8.7 well-trained cyclists performed two randomly assigned 10km cycle time trials, either listening to self-selected motivational music or control trial. A variety of performance markers (power output, HR, blood lactate, RPE) were monitored. Results: Self-selected motivation music had no affect on HR 174.1 +/- 11.3 and 171.8 +/- 10.4, power output 222 +/- 66 and 220 +/- 65, RPE 8.4 +/- 1.5 and 8.5 +/- 1.6, blood lactate 8.2 +/- 3.6 and 8.2 +/- 3.5 or time 17.75 +/- 2.1 and 17.81 +/- 2.06 (p>.05). Conclusion: The results show no significant difference in time trial responses relative to the presence of music.

▼ Cohesion is the most often studied group dynamics
factor in sport and exercise psychology (Brawley, Carron, &
Widmeyer, 1987; Carron, 1982; Carron, Widmeyer, & Brawley,
1985). The group dynamics research has focused on the relationship
between cohesion and performance. Relatively little is known about
how cohesion may be related to individual factors such as anxiety.
Previous studies revealed that cohesiveness provides
psychological
benefits to participants (Eys, Hardy, Carron, & Beauchamp,
2003; Prapavessis & Carron, 1996). However, there is no
research exploring the relationship between cohesion and
competitive anxiety at the recreational sport level. The purpose of
this study was to examine the relationship between multi-constructs
of cohesiveness, assessed with the Group Environment Questionnaire
(GEQ; Carron, Widmeyer, & Brawley, 1985), and multidimensions
of competitive state anxiety, assessed with the Competitive State
Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2; Martens et al., 1990) at the
recreational sport level. In addition, the contribution of cohesion
to the prediction of competitive state anxiety beyond the
contribution of competitive trait anxiety assessed by the Sport
Competition Anxiety Test (SCAT; Martens, 1977) was examined. A
hypothetical soccer competition scenario was used to measure
competitive state anxiety in the present study. The results of
Pearson's correlation analysis revealed a negative relationship
between three dimensions of cohesion (individual attraction to the
group-task; ATG-T, group integration-task; GI-T, and group
integration-social; GI-S) and subdimensions of competitive A-state
(cognitive and somatic state anxiety). The findings of stepwise and
hierarchical multiple regression analyses also demonstrated the
significant contribution of the individual attraction to the
group-task (ATG-T) in predicting competitive state anxiety. It is
suggested that recreational soccer participants with high scores on
ATG-T are likely to have low competitive state anxiety. It is also
suggested that future research examine if cohesion helps
recreational athletes stick to sports through diminished
competitive state anxiety.; Anxiety, Cohesion, Competitive anxiety,

▼ "
Psychological reactance is a motivational state caused by a perceived threat to an individual's freedom to behave as he or she chooses. In this state individuals are motivated to restore the perception of freedom. Past research on reactance has suggested that it is possible that repeatedly experiencing a reactive state may contribute to increasing trait reactance, which is the individual's general tendency to experience reactance in a given situation. Research on discrimination has suggested that experiencing discrimination may induce a reactive state, but has not empirically tested that idea. Study 1 hypothesized that there would be a positive correlation between the amount of discrimination perceived by an individual and the individual's level of trait reactance. Study 2 hypothesized that participants asked to recall a discriminatory event would experience more state reactance than those in the control condition. Study 1's hypothesis was supported by correlations between the Perceived Discrimination Scale (Dowd, Milne, &Wise, 1991), the Therapeutic Reactance Scale, the Hong
Psychological Reactance Scale (Hong, 1992) and the majority of the Hong subscales. A subjective measure of discrimination experienced due to group membership was also correlated with the same reactance scales. Study 2's hypothesis was also supported when participants asked to recall a discriminatory incident scored significantly higher on cognitive and emotional measures designed to assess state reactance. Together the findings of both studies suggest that experiencing state reactance repeatedly throughout an individual's life leads to an increase in that individual's level of trait reactance. If trait reactance is a result of discriminatory experiences then, such information could help inform the therapeutic treatment of clients likely to have experienced discrimination" – Document.

▼ Previous research on physical appearance and personnel selection suggests physical
appearance significantly affects hiring decisions. With individuals dramatically changing their physical appearance with body art, such as tattoos and body piercings, this study was designed to examine the impact body art has on personnel selection and personorganization fit. Each applicant packet included a photograph of the same Caucasian male, a fabricated personal statement, with an attached resume creating three applicant packets. Application materials were identical in nature, with the exception of the photograph. The level of body art was manipulated in the photograph (Level One: pictured without visible body art, Level Two: pictured with a moderate amount of body art, and Level Three: pictured with excessive amounts of body art). Forty-five Management Professionals with Hiring Responsibilities (ranging in age from 25 years and up) and Forty-five Supervisory Professionals without Hiring Responsibilities (ranging in age from 18 years to 25 years) were asked to evaluate an applicant packet from one of the variable levels and rate the likelihood that they would be selected for an entry-level position, as well as perceived level of attractiveness. The male with no visible
body art was viewed as the most attractive. The amount of visible body art did not appear
to influence hiring decisions. Although age of the rater was predicted to be a potential
moderator, did not moderate the effects of body art on attractiveness, person-organization fit, selection, or stereotyping.

▼ The research in this dissertation investigates the consistency of juror decision models when evaluating incriminating and exonerating evidence. Many stochastic and
psychological models indicate that an interaction between a person’s prior beliefs and their evaluation of the evidence contribute to their verdict decision. However, less is known regarding how this interaction occurs for different forms of evidence. In particular, a pervasive assumption is that jurors use the same or similar models to evaluate exonerating and incriminating evidence. The data from this dissertation indicates that this may not be the case. Participants adjust estimates of probability of guilt in a Bayesian inference problem more when case specific evidence is incriminating versus exonerating. Further, their response patterns and reported and observed measures of the type and variety of information they are using to produce probability of guilt estimates indicate that they engage in a process of mental estimation more often than they report that they do. The findings indicate that jurors may potentially use different decision models to evaluate different forms of evidence. Further, the framing of the search for culpability provides a plausible explanation for differences in the decision models that are used. Specifically, a juror’s selection criteria and perceived importance of a given piece of evidence will vary depending on its relevance to their decision task. Thus, asking jurors to estimate likelihoods of guilt may lead to their underutilization of evidence implying innocence.

When do people lie, for whom, and why? : altruistic lying in an alibi corroboration context.

▼ Three studies were conducted in order to identity factors that impact the likelihood that a witness will lie for a suspect in an alibi corroboration context. Specifically, the level of affinity between a suspect and a witness, the level of social pressure, and gender were investigated as factors impacting the likelihood that a witness would knowingly support a false alibi. During a study session purportedly intended to investigate dyadic problem-solving ability, a mock theft was staged in an adjacent office. When questioned by the experimenter, undergraduate students were provided the opportunity to either corroborate or refute a confederate’s false alibi that the latter had been in the testing room during the time of the theft, which participants knew was false. In study 1, participants who were explicitly asked to conceal the confederate’s whereabouts during the time of the theft were more likely to lie for him or her by corroborating the false alibi (61% vs. 26% of those who were not asked to lie). In study 2, there was a higher percentage of male participants who corroborated a male confederate’s false alibi (41%) compared to female participants who corroborated a female confederate’s false alibi (23%). In study 3, participants were found to be more likely to lie for a confederate when the latter was their friend (41%) than when he or she was a stranger (18%). How much a participant liked the suspect (study 1) and whether or not the suspect had previously helped the participant (study 2) did not affect the rates of false alibi corroboration. The results confirm that alibi witnesses often lie, but suggest that investigators and jurors may underestimate the frequency with which strangers and acquaintances lie for one another, and that witnesses who lie do so more often because they trust that the suspect is innocent rather than guilty.

Young children’s trust in the false testimony of ingroup versus outgroup speakers.

▼ The present research explores whether young children display different levels of trust in the testimony of speakers from their own social group (ingroups) versus another social group (outgroups). Three- and 4-year-old children watched through a window as an adult hid a toy in one of three containers. The adult then told the child that she had put the toy in a container different from the one where it was actually hidden (i.e., false testimony). At the end the child was asked to retrieve the toy. The adult was either a Caucasian, native English speaker ingroup) or an Asian English speaker with a noticeable foreign accent (outgroup). Four-year-old children were credulous to the false testimony of the ingroup speaker, despite their firsthand observations, but were skeptical and relied on their own observations when the false testimony was provided by the outgroup speaker. In contrast, 3-year-old children remained credulous to the false testimony of both speakers. These findings were discussed in relation to children’s early preferences for ingroup members and the developmental shift in skepticism displayed by 4-year-old, but not 3-year-old children. This research will make a unique contribution to our understanding of how young children selectively learn from other people and why they remain credulous to some speakers, but not to others.

▼ The objective of this research is to explore how online fashion videos affect consumers’ perception toward fashion brands. This study builds upon research in cognitive processing, attitude formation and interactive online technology. This study used optometric or gaze tracking to follow what participants focused upon when exposed to fashion videos. All participants were female, half in fashion related programs and the other half in non-fashion, non-design related programs. A semi-structured interview, visual stimuli (video), and pre-/post-questionnaire were used. The study found that participants did not fully remember videos to which they have been exposed to or content upon which they had focused. However, it is important to note that participants could recall a considerable amount of information when their eye pupils dilated during viewing. Although participants’ perceptions toward video did not show significant changes after they found out the brand name, they tended to use different words or vocabularies from the pre-questionnaire survey to describe the brand image. It is evident that the relationship between pupil dilation and memory recall is positive. As this study deals with perceptions, further investigation into participant’s memories and associations with visual attributes will provide additional considerations, particularly how associations are made and recalled by viewers over time and after exposed to a brand’s messages over a period of time.

▼ To test the assumption that individuals who share a personal relationship are more likely to corroborate one another's false alibi than are strangers, 81 undergraduate students were provided the opportunity to either corroborate or refute a confederate's alibi for a suspected theft. In a 'friendship' condition, feelings of affiliation between the participant and the confederate were experimentally induced by increasing the perceived similarity between the pair, and by having the pair interact during a collaborative task. Later during the experimental session the confederate became a suspect for a mock crime and provided a false alibi that she was with the participant during the entire session. Contrary to what we hypothesized, participants in the 'stranger' condition were as likely to corroborate the false alibi as those who underwent friendship-enhancing activities. When the confederate acted in a highly suspicious manner, however, she was much less likely to have her false alibi corroborated by participant than when the confederate's behaviour was less suspicious. The results put into question our assumptions of what makes a credible witness and emphasizes the need for further empirical research on the behaviour of alibi corroboration.

▼ Being able to directly measure if an individual is lying or not can have many advantages. The
current study set out to determine if there were differences in cognitive effort when lying and
telling the truth. Participants (N=20) were asked to create or recall 8 events from the Life Events
Inventory list. In half of the trials participants told a story, in the other half they told a story and
performed an irrelevant simple reaction time task. Disfluency in the participant’s narratives and
reaction time in the reaction time task were measured to assess how well participants performed
each task. For the reaction time task, there were significant differences between the task type
conditions, but not between the story type conditions. For the disfluency measures, there were
significant main effects of story type (truth versus lie) for all measures, but no main effects of
task type (dual versus single). There was an interaction for filled pauses which indicated more
filled pauses for the single, lie condition than any other condition. Overall, reaction times
suggested no difference in cognitive effort when lying or telling the truth, whereas disfluency
suggested there were some cognitive differences.
