Notre recherche porte sur la participation d’individus âgés fragilisés à un essai clinique destiné à prévenir les syndromes démentiels dégénératifs. 812 personnes âgées, dont 527 ayant accepté de participer à une étude destinée à prévenir la maladie d’Alzheimer et 285 ayant refusé de participer à ce même essai ont rempli un questionnaire comprenant des renseignements sociodémographiques et des échelles évaluant les variables psychologiques suivantes : le soutien social perçu, le lieu de contrôle de la santé, la facette anxiété du Névrosisme, la menace perçue de la maladie d’Alzheimer, les motifs d’acceptation et de refus de participer un une étude destinée à prévenir la maladie d’Alzheimer. Les résultats mettent en évidence que le niveau d’étude, l’âge, la menace perçue de la maladie d’Alzheimer, le contrôle interne et le contrôle externe «personnages puissants» participent à distinguer les « acceptants » et les « refusants ». Les «acceptants» ont un niveau d’étude plus élevé et sont plus jeunes que les «refusants». Les « acceptants » se sentent davantage menacés par la maladie d’Alzheimer et ont plus tendance à présenter un contrôle de la santé de type interne ou externe «personnages puissants» que les «refusants». Trois facteurs motivationnels d’acceptation de participer ont été mis en évidence : le facteur I «Bénéfices perçus», le facteur II «Influence sociale» et le facteur III «Orientation sur soi». Trois facteurs motivationnels de refus de participer ont émergé : le facteur I «Manque d’intérêt», le facteur II «Raisons médicales» et le facteur III «Contraintes perçues». La présente étude contribue à une meilleure compréhension des caractéristiques psychologiques des individus âgés acceptant ou refusant de participer à une étude préventive conduite dans le domaine de la maladie d’Alzheimer, ce qui pourrait notamment aider à la mise en place d’actions améliorant la participation des personnes âgées.

Our research deals with frail elderly persons participation in a dementia preventive study. 812 elderly persons: 527 which accepted and 285 which refused participation in an Alzheimer disease preventive program, completed a questionnaire which evaluated sociodemographic variables and psychological variables: social support, health locus of control, anxiety facet of Neuroticism, perceived threat about Alzheimer disease, motives to accept or to refuse to take part in an Alzheimer disease preventive study. Results show that level of education, age, threat about Alzheimer disease, internal control and external «powerful others» control, contribute to discriminate «acceptors» and «refusers». Persons who accepted participation have a higher level of education and are younger than people in the refusing-to-participate group. Persons who accepted to take part in the study showed an internal control, a «powerful others» control, and felt more threatened by Alzheimer disease than people in the refusing-to-participate group. Motivational factors to accept to take part in a dementia preventive study are: factor I «Perceived…

▼ This study explored several predictors of posttraumatic growth (PTG) in a sample of 169 breast, prostate and colorectal cancer survivors. The first aim was to determine the influence of Anxiety, Depression and Perceived Threat (defined as the combination of Life Outlook Threat, i.e., the degree a cancer diagnosis challenged a survivor's assumptive world, and Physical Threat, i.e., threat to mortality and physical well-being) in the prediction of Positive and Negative Cognitive Processing. The second aim was to examine the effect of Anxiety, Depression, Perceived Threat, and Positive and Negative Cognitive Processing in the predication of PTG. Cancer survivors who were treated at one of the Denver Division clinics of the Rocky Mountain Cancer Center participated in the study. Since little empirical research has been conducted utilizing the variable of cognitive processing in the psychological literature, the study sought to investigate how Anxiety, Depression, and Perceived Threat were related to Positive and Negative Cognitive Processing. Hierarchical regression analyses were used to explore four primary hypotheses. The results of the study revealed several important findings. Physical Threat, Depression, and Permanent After-Effects of Cancer Treatment significantly predicted Positive Cognitive Processing, with lower levels of Physical Threat and Depression and no After-Effects of Treatment predicting higher Positive Cognitive Processing. Life Outlook Threat, Positive Cognitive Processing, and Type of Cancer Treatment Received also significantly predicted PTG. The findings indicated that greater life outlook threat and positive cognitive processing as well as receiving more than one form of cancer treatment predicted greater growth. None of the variables reached significance in predicting Negative Cognitive Processing and Negative Cognitive Processing failed to significantly predict PTG. While perceived threat and cognitive processing have a strong theoretical basis in the emergence of growth, the constructs have received little empirical attention. This is the first study that has assessed how being diagnosed with cancer challenges, rather than alters, a survivor's assumptive world. The results of the study provide evidence that increases in life outlook threat and positive cognitive processing are related to PTG. Advisors/Committee Members: Cynthia McRae, Ph.D..

▼ This study examined the roles cohesion, coping, and perceived threat have in buffering the effect of war-zone stress on mental health symptoms. Specifically, six factors were tested as potential moderators of the relationship between combat-related stressors and posttraumatic stress symptomatology (PTSS), including horizontal (peer) cohesion, vertical (NCO) cohesion, vertical (officer) cohesion, problem-focused coping, emotion-focused coping, and perceived threat. In addition, direct effects and curvilinear interaction effects were examined. This study was a secondary analysis of Mental Health Advisory Team (MHAT) VI data collected by military researchers as part of an ongoing effort to assess soldiers' behavioral health. This study analyzed data from a total of 1,824 male and female U.S. Army soldiers from 15 active-duty brigades who anonymously completed the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) Deployment Well-Being Survey during their deployment to Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). PTSS, combat-related stressors, horizontal (peer) cohesion, vertical (NCO) cohesion, vertical (officer) cohesion, problem-focused coping, emotion-focused coping, and perceived threat were measured. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used to identify both risk factors and protective factors for PTSS. The analysis revealed three risk factors and four protective factors. During a war-zone deployment, higher levels of combat-related stressors, problem-focused coping, and perceived threat (i.e., risk factors) were independently associated with greater report of PTSS. Higher levels of horizontal (peer) cohesion, vertical (NCO) cohesion, vertical (officer) cohesion, and emotion-focused coping (i.e., protective factors) were independently associated with decreased levels of PTSS. Hierarchical moderated multiple regression analysis indicated that vertical (NCO) cohesion, vertical (officer) cohesion, and emotion-focused coping buffered the effect of combat-related stressors on PTSS; soldiers higher in vertical (NCO) cohesion, vertical (officer) cohesion, and emotion-focused coping showed weaker relationships between combat-related stressors and PTSS. No support for curvilinear interaction effects were found, suggesting that for this population of soldiers deployed to Iraq, the moderating effect of vertical cohesion and emotion-focused coping on the relationship between combat-related stressors and PTSS is linear in nature.

▼ As a growing body of research has focused on the individual, social, and environmental factors that facilitate life after spinal cord injury (SCI), particular emphasis has been placed on health conditions that are modifiable and preventable. Subsequent injuries are a serious health problem for individuals with SCI. They are a direct threat to further morbidity and mortality, and are both a cause and consequence other secondary health conditions. As a first step toward understanding this public health problem, the purpose of this dissertation research was to describe the patterns, burdens, and prevention of subsequent injury among individuals with SCI. In three distinct, but related studies, this dissertation examined the characteristics of hospitalizations due to an injury among individuals with paraplegia, and compared the differences in length of stay (LOS) and hospital costs of injury hospitalizations between individuals with quadriplegia versus paraplegia. In addition, it explored the experience of subsequent injury among individuals with SCI who return to work and examined perceptions of threat and efficacy in preventing subsequent injury using the Extended Parallel Process Model. Using discharge level weighting available in the Nationwide Inpatient Sample, Study 1 calculated national estimates of injury hospitalizations for individuals with paraplegia by patient, hospital, and injury characteristics. Most injury hospitalizations occurred among males, to individuals 35-49 years, and were due to falls, poisonings, or motor vehicle traffic. With the same dataset, Study 2 used logistic regression to estimate the effect of patient characteristics on odds of hospitalized patients with quadriplegia versus paraplegia, and linear regression to estimate predicted differences in hospital costs for individuals with quadriplegia compared to paraplegia. Fewer injury hospitalizations but longer hospital stays, and higher hospital costs per discharge were found for individuals with quadriplegia compared to individuals with paraplegia. Males, younger age, and the uninsured were significant predictors of higher hospital costs. Finally, Study 3 used in-depth interviews to qualitatively explore the perceptions on subsequent injury among individuals with SCI who return to work, and found individuals with SCI who return to work recognized the importance of preventing subsequent injury, and were taking actions to prevent subsequent injury in their daily life and in the workplace. The significance of this research is that it is the first description of injury hospitalizations for all causes of injury by specific type of SCI, and the associated medical outcomes of LOS and direct medical costs. Prevention of subsequent injury should be a priority. The perceptions of individuals with SCI about the severity of and their susceptibility to injury and the efficacy of individual and environmental actions to prevent subsequent injury described in this research should be used to inform the development of… Advisors/Committee Members: Yang, Jingzhen (supervisor).

▼ The American Cancer Society (2013) has estimated that there were 230,480 new cases of breast cancer in the United States (U.S.) and 39,520 deaths from breast cancer in 2011. Breast cancer is second leading cancer etiology behind skin cancer for American women and is the second cause of cancer mortality. Uncertainty, stress, and perceived threat may impair a personÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s coping with cancer while a positive appraisal may enhance coping skills. As an inner resource, daily spiritual experiences may affect appraisal and coping choices. Lazarus and FolkmanÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s (1984) framework on stress, appraisal and coping explicates the processes of stress and uncertainty while MeleisÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ Transitions Theory (2010) focuses on the dynamic changes that occur with illness. The purposes of this study are: 1) to examine the relationships between uncertainty, stress, daily spiritual experiences, perceived threat, and positive appraisal in women with breast cancer persons with cancer, and, 2) ascertain if women with breast cancer perceive a transition within their own daily spiritual experiences while coping with breast cancer. A multi- method design including a descriptive cross sectional design and qualitative inquiry was utilized to examine the relationships between the major variables under study and to explore perceptions of a transition of daily spiritual experiences. This study was conducted mainly online via encrypted web hosting by SnapÃ‚Â® Surveys and also via telephone interviews. Descriptive and correlational statistics as well as qualitative analysis were used to answer the research questions. Measures of stress including stress from uncertainty and overall stress were significantly correlated (r (95) = 0.76, p < 0.001). Data from this study supported a significant low to moderate inverse relationship between daily spiritual experiences and uncertainty. Direct relationships were found between uncertainty, stress from uncertainty, overall uncertainty, overall stress, and perceived threat. Spiritual experiences were present in a majority of the participants and 68.2 % percent reported that their spiritual experiences had changed. This study added to nursingÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s understanding of the relationships between uncertainty, perceived threat, stress, positive appraisal, and daily spiritual experiences during a womanÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s transitions through the breast cancer illness.

▼ The objective of this thesis was to examine the significance of meaning in a sample of veterans who were deployed during various war and peacekeeping operations. A cognitive perspective was chosen to explore how veterans make sense of their war zone experiences and find personal significance in these events by collecting data by questionnaires complemented by in-depth interviews. Questionnaire findings of a sample of 1.561 veterans who participated in various war and peacekeeping operations showed that the majority of veterans evaluated their military deployment experiences as positive long after their service despite exposure to war zone stressors. A positive perception of military deployment experiences was most beneficial for mental health and quality of life over the long term. Furthermore, distrust in others and the world was strongly associated with perceived threat, intrusive and avoidant thoughts and with lower quality of life in our model. Creating meaning in terms of a positive world view is an important mission after military deployment to achieve mental adaptation and healthy functioning. Qualitative findings showed that veterans without posttraumatic stress reactions appraised their peacekeeping experiences in Cambodia as meaningful. Deployment represented a different reality in which military performance and comradeship gave clear sense and direction. The professional skills and life experience they gained created new opportunities in their future career and personal life. Their stories reflected a greater sense of personal strength, mastery, feelings of fulfilment and appreciation for their effort when looking back on their accomplishments compared to veterans with posttraumatic stress reactions. The latter felt more life threat during deployment and were less able to keep their emotional distance. Moreover, for them the different realities were difficult to put in perspective, such as facing the worthlessness of human life in Cambodia and seeing the injustice between worlds. The reality in Cambodia left a lasting impression in their minds and shattered basic assumptions. Questionnaire findings showed that the construct of resilience was well defined through self esteem, personal control and optimism, and showed to be strongly associated with positive meaning after military deployment. As most veterans adapted well after military deployment experiences and only a minority actually developed posttraumatic stress disorder, veterans with resilient pathways after deployment are an important avenue for future research and must serve as a standard in clinical practice. The concept of meaning demonstrated to be an important perspective in examining adaptive mechanisms and psychological change after threatening experiences. Findings of this research should generate awareness of the positive consequences of military deployment for veterans in the general public. Veterans benefit from social recognition after returning home from deployment that facilitates mental adaptation and social reintegration. Prevention… Advisors/Committee Members: Kleber, R.J..

▼ Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a chronic disorder with a high burden of suffering for affected individuals, their caregivers, families, and communities. An increased emphasis on early AD detection may benefit affected individuals and their caregivers, especially where disparities already exist in health care and outcomes, but may also unnecessarily heighten perceived AD threat among healthy older adults. Relatively few studies have examined predictors of perceived AD threat and help-seeking behavior among a large and diverse sample that is broadly representative of the U.S. adult population. Informed by health behavior theory, my dissertation 1) identifies factors that influence formal help-seeking for memory complaints through a systematic review of the literature, 2) examines psychosocial and cognitive predictors of perceived AD threat, an understudied construct related to help-seeking, among a nationally representative sample of U.S. adults from the Health and Retirement Study, and 3) explores demographic, health care access, and health status predictors of help-seeking among older adults with memory complaints using Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data. Findings from the systematic review suggest that individual, interpersonal, and structural/policy level factors each play a key role in help-seeking. Multivariate analyses of perceived AD threat revealed that perceived threat was significantly higher for respondents aged 50-64 and 65-74 than for those over 75. Higher perceived threat was also associated with a family history of AD (compared to no experience), stronger beliefs that stress or genetics are important AD risk factors, more depressive symptoms, poorer self-rated memory, and lower cognitive function. Respondents with lower education levels were significantly less likely to seek help. Those who reported more memory-related functional difficulty, more frequent days of poor mental health, and having a primary care provider, were more likely to seek help. These findings highlight the need for education and community outreach to raise awareness about early dementia symptoms, provide specific factors that health care providers should consider in clinical encounters, and highlight the need for careful initial cognitive screening of individuals with memory complaints. These findings also provide insight about the help-seeking process, and a starting point for interventions aimed at increasing timely AD diagnosis and treatment.

Dans cette thèse, nous étudions le lien entre la distance culturelle perçue entre les immigrés et le groupe majoritaire français d’une part et les préjugés d’autre part, en examinant le point de vue des Français. Plusieurs facteurs peuvent influencer ce lien : l’adhésion au multiculturalisme par rapport à d’autres modèles d’intégration, la perception de ce modèle comme étant une menace à l’identité nationale ou encore la présentation du multiculturalisme en des termes abstraits (renvoyant à ses objectifs) ou concrets (renvoyant à sa mise en place dans un contexte national). Les résultats montrent que chez les Français qui adhèrent au multiculturalisme, la perception de distance culturelle corrèle plus faiblement avec les préjugés que chez les Français qui adhèrent à l’assimilation. En examinant davantage les attitudes intergroupes chez les Français qui adhèrent au multiculturalisme, nous avons montré que la perception de ce modèle comme étant menaçant pour l’identité nationale peut aussi influencer l’impact de la distance culturelle sur les préjugés : chez les Français qui perçoivent le multiculturalisme comme menaçant, la distance culturelle implique plus de préjugés que chez les Français qui le perçoivent comme moins menaçant. Une source de menace pour le multiculturalisme serait le degré d’abstraction de sa présentation, avec une menace plus importante lorsque l’on fait référence à la politique concrète mise en place dans un pays plutôt qu’au modèle idéal, abstrait. En effet, dans une étude comparative entre la France et les Pays-Bas, nous avons montré que le lien entre la distance culturelle et les préjugés à l’égard des immigrés est plus important lorsque le multiculturalisme est défini en termes concrets que lorsqu’il est défini en termes abstraits

In this thesis, we have studied – on the one hand – the way how perceived cultural distance between the immigrants and the French majority group is linked to prejudice by examining French people’s point of view. Several factors can influence this link: the endorsement to multiculturalism compared to other integration models, the perception of this model as a threat to national identity or the presentation of multiculturalism in abstract terms (i.e. its objectives) or concrete (i.e. its implementation in a national context). The results have shown that among the French who endorse multiculturalism, the perception of cultural distance weakly correlates with prejudice whereas it correlates more among the French who endorse assimilation’s integration model. By focusing on French people who prefer multiculturalism, we showed that the perception of this model as a threat to national identity can also influence the impact of cultural distance on prejudice. Among the French who perceive multiculturalism as threatening, cultural distance involves more prejudice than among those who perceive it as less threatening. A source of threat to multiculturalism could reside in the way it is presented – its degree of abstraction – with more threat when we refer to concrete policy…

▼ Gender remains a key predictor of vocational choice. The present thesis aimed to investigate three social psychological barriers to nontraditional career choice. Study Ӏ showed that threats to gender identity may lead to more gender-typical occupational preferences among adolescents. The results suggested a unique effect of gender identity threat, as a control threat did not have the same effect. Moreover, individual differences in gender identity concerns predicted gender-typed preferences. Study ӀӀ proposed an effect of gender-typical educational choice as a consequence of social needs. Because people tend to have predominantly same-gender friends, those who adjust their choice of education to be with their friends are likely to acquire a more gender-typical education and, consequently, occupation. The findings suggest that adolescents are more likely to adjust their educational choice in line with same-gender friends. Furthermore, perceived education compromise in line with friends was related to having selected a more gender typical field of study. Study ӀӀӀ revealed that people’s perceptions of gender discrimination in hiring are guided by discrimination prototypes of the typical discrimination victim, rather than same-gender bias. Both men and women tend to interpret an ambiguous outcome on the labor market as discrimination if the applicant is female. Furthermore, observing a woman being declined job interviews in male-typed occupations led to work-seeking discouragement, and this effect was mediated by attributions to discrimination. Discrimination attributions in prototypical cases were found to be exaggerated compared to the prevalence of actual gender discrimination in hiring. To conclude, the present thesis suggests that gender identity threat, friendship priorities, and perceived discrimination may prevent individuals from exploring their full range of career opportunities. First, gender identity threat may affect adolescents so that they do not even form aspirations for gender atypical occupations. Second, even if there is some interest in nontraditional occupations, the need to preserve close relationships will push people away from domains where they have no friends (usually domains where their gender is in minority). Finally, when young men and women are about to enter the labor market, exaggerated perceptions of the prevalence of discrimination can become an obstacle to their motivation to pursue certain careers.

▼ Previous psychological research has demonstrated the benefits of visiting natural environments, especially coastal areas. However, research within Marine Biology has shown that such visits can harm natural habitats. Consequently, this thesis uses an integrative approach to examine both the risks to the environment and benefits to the human visitors in the context of rocky shores (intertidal areas where solid rock predominates). This was investigated using seven studies that involved a range of methods. Perception-based surveys (Studies 1 & 2) explored the perceived impacts on the visitor, and the potential impacts these visits can have on the rocky shore. Study 3 then examined the impacts on visitors’ well-being & marine awareness directly using a before-after survey on current visitors to two rocky shores. The most prominent habitat threat (leaving rubbish) was then examined in greater detail. Studies 4 and 5 examined the effects of marine litter on individuals’ well-being using two laboratory experimental designs; comparing individuals’ quantitative (Study 4) and qualitative (Study 5) responses to natural and littered shores. The final two studies then focused on an activity that reduces marine litter: Study 6 adopted a pre-post design to examine the benefits of engaging in beach cleans for current volunteers, whilst Study 7 used an experimental design comparing beach cleans with two other coastal activities on a more naïve sample. Overall, these studies provide evidence that experiencing rocky shores are beneficial for well-being and marine awareness. Counteracting such benefits, litter left behind after recreational visits were found to be detrimental to individuals’ well-being. As one potential solution to this issue, beach cleans were found to have the same, and additional beneficial effects on the individual as other coastal activities. Thus, activities which have a relatively positive impact on the environment can also have similar if not additional benefits to the visitor. This programme of research shows the importance of taking a holistic, integrative approach that takes into account both the risks to the environment and benefits to the individual resulting from recreational visits to natural environments.

▼ The objective of this thesis was to examine the significance of meaning in a sample of veterans who were deployed during various war and peacekeeping operations. A cognitive perspective was chosen to explore how veterans make sense of their war zone experiences and find personal significance in these events by collecting data by questionnaires complemented by in-depth interviews. Questionnaire findings of a sample of 1.561 veterans who participated in various war and peacekeeping operations showed that the majority of veterans evaluated their military deployment experiences as positive long after their service despite exposure to war zone stressors. A positive perception of military deployment experiences was most beneficial for mental health and quality of life over the long term. Furthermore, distrust in others and the world was strongly associated with perceived threat, intrusive and avoidant thoughts and with lower quality of life in our model. Creating meaning in terms of a positive world view is an important mission after military deployment to achieve mental adaptation and healthy functioning. Qualitative findings showed that veterans without posttraumatic stress reactions appraised their peacekeeping experiences in Cambodia as meaningful. Deployment represented a different reality in which military performance and comradeship gave clear sense and direction. The professional skills and life experience they gained created new opportunities in their future career and personal life. Their stories reflected a greater sense of personal strength, mastery, feelings of fulfilment and appreciation for their effort when looking back on their accomplishments compared to veterans with posttraumatic stress reactions. The latter felt more life threat during deployment and were less able to keep their emotional distance. Moreover, for them the different realities were difficult to put in perspective, such as facing the worthlessness of human life in Cambodia and seeing the injustice between worlds. The reality in Cambodia left a lasting impression in their minds and shattered basic assumptions. Questionnaire findings showed that the construct of resilience was well defined through self esteem, personal control and optimism, and showed to be strongly associated with positive meaning after military deployment. As most veterans adapted well after military deployment experiences and only a minority actually developed posttraumatic stress disorder, veterans with resilient pathways after deployment are an important avenue for future research and must serve as a standard in clinical practice. The concept of meaning demonstrated to be an important perspective in examining adaptive mechanisms and psychological change after threatening experiences. Findings of this research should generate awareness of the positive consequences of military deployment for veterans in the general public. Veterans benefit from social recognition after returning home from deployment that facilitates mental adaptation and social reintegration. Prevention… Advisors/Committee Members: Kleber, R.J..

▼ The study aimed to fill critical gaps in the literature on aggression toward sexual minorities (1) by examining a specifically prejudice-based model, intergroup threat theory (ITT), to explain aggression toward sexual minorities, and (2) by determining the extent to which alcohol facilitates prejudice-based mechanisms of aggression toward sexual minorities. Participants comprised a final sample of 161 heterosexual, undergraduate men of ages ranging from 18 to 30. Participants completed measures of perceived threat based on the ITT model (i.e., realistic threat, symbolic threat), antecedents to these threats (i.e., AIDS-related stigma, religiosity, adherence to traditional male gender role norm of antifemininity), and frequency of both alcohol-related and non-alcohol-related aggression toward sexual minorities. Structural equation modeling was used to identify indirect effects, to statistically test contrasts between these indirect effects, and to employ multigroup models in moderated-mediation analyses. Perceived threats of ITT were expected to mediate positive associations between (1) antecedents of perceived threat and (2) frequency of alcohol-related and non-alcohol-related aggression toward sexual minorities. Although the final sample was relatively small, this study found that, overall, indirect effects were mediated by symbolic threat more so than realistic threat. Additionally, indirect effects via symbolic threat on alcohol-related aggression were significant, but indirect effects on non-alcohol-related aggression were generally not significant. These results supported the view that perceived threats, particularly symbolic threat, of ITT, combined with the risk-enhancing role of alcohol, facilitates prejudice-based aggression in response to sexual minorities. Additional analyses showed that group differences based on (1) racial membership and (2) whether participants endorsed being religious were potential moderators. Moderated-mediation analyses showed that racial membership did not moderate indirect effects. However, among participants who reported being religious, realistic threat mediated associations between antecedents to threat rather than symbolic threat. Conversely, realistic threat was not a significant mediator among reportedly non-religious participants; however, symbolic threat was. Taken together, results showed that the type of perceived threat in response to a marginalized group, alcohol consumption, and social-group membership of perpetrators are critical when designing interventions to reduce prejudice-based aggression. Strengths, limitations, and other implications of the study were discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Dominic J. Parrott, Christopher C. Henrich, John L. Peterson, Monica H. Swahn.

▼ Stereotypes are oversimplified generalizations about people that are taken to be veridical. Psychologists have explored their influence on behavior, including task performance. Recently, this research has incorporated aging stereotypes (e.g., wise, frail). Regarding behavior, several stereotype theories (e.g., Steele, 1997; Levy, 2003) have explicated this belief-performance link. Empirically, scholars have induced or emphasized stereotypes and examined subsequent effects on performance, demonstrating such emphasis can threaten and lead to poorer performance by older adults. Another set of beliefs, self-efficacy (Bandura, 1997), has also been examined in relation to performance across various task domains, including cognitive aging. This work has focused on memory, given its increasing personal relevance as people age, and memory self-efficacy (MSE). As in other domains, results have shown that MSE can have a determining impact on memory performance. Further, research has consistently shown significant age differences, both in memory performance and MSE, favoring the young. Surprisingly, stereotypes and self-efficacy, although both linked to performance outcomes, have rarely been examined together. The present investigation attempted to fill this void by simultaneously examining aging stereotypes, MSE, and memory performance. Older and younger adults were exposed to aging stereotypes (positive or negative) or a control condition, asked to rate their MSE, and then performed memory tasks. Memory-related anxiety, perceived memory importance, and several other participant demographics were also captured. In analyses of variance examining the impact of stereotype condition and aging, aging showed significant effects on MSE and memory performance, with older adults obtaining lower scores. Unexpectedly, stereotype condition did not affect MSE or performance. Recall scores were comparable across negative stereotype, positive stereotype, and control conditions. Structural equation models revealed only weak relationships among these variables for younger adults. For older adults, however, MSE predicted memory performance, and anxiety exerted an indirect effect on performance by influencing MSE. For both young and old, anxiety was comparable at baseline and increased significantly during the study. This effect was stronger for older adults. Cumulatively, these results illustrate that memory has increasing personal relevance as people age, and underscore the key roles of memory-specific anxiety and self-confidence (e.g., MSE) in predicting memory performance.

▼ One out of three Americans undergoes drunk-driving crashes; 23% result in death. To deter DWIs (Driving While under Influence), MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Drivers) created VIPs (Victim Impact Panels) where victims impact offenders with gory stories, photos, and threats of punishments and loss of freedom, hoping this message will deter DWIs. It is remarkable that although the VIP message is considered a primary DWI intervention, yet no studies have investigated VIP message effects. VIP message effects, their persistence and decay, are chronicled here over the course of 12 years. This study extends an empirical investigation of VIPs, conducted by Woodall, Delaney, Rogers, and Wheeler (2007) (n = 833) during 1994-1996. At 2 years, these researchers found MADD VIP participants' recidivism rates were 30% higher than their DWI School comparison group, trending toward significance at p = .0583. This study supports those results as significant at 12 years. As an extension, it investigates whether reactance theory explains VIP message effects failure. Reactance theory research, a subset of message effects research, explains how emotional, confrontational, and threatening messages induce psychological reactance in the mind of the message receiver, who then seeks to preserve his or her sense of freedom by behaving contrarily (Brehm, 1966). Hierarchically intensifying effects of these theoretical reactance antecedents are studied here in an unusual manner, as they occur in vivo, in real life. The same intervention was observed to have different effects depending on prior conditions and demographics. The emotional high-threat, high-confrontation MADD VIP message coincided with significantly shorter time to recidivism (p = .009, d = 1.64) and significantly higher number of subsequent arrests (p < .0001, d = 1.64) among recent prior offenders, and those with no priors under age 30 (p = .01, d = 0.35). Younger offenders may be associated with more iconoclastic behavior than older offenders (Beirness & Simpson, 1997; Greenberg, 2005; NHTSA, 2008), partially explaining the under-30 age effect. This study furthers persuasive message design as a science and suggests a message-based approach to intervention analysis. There was no effect when MADD VIP was analyzed simply as an intervention. However, there were highly significant effect sizes when the same MADD VIP intervention was analyzed as a message. This study concludes by offering MADD VIP best practice recommendations.
