  • Time Perspective, Personality, and Life Satisfaction Among Anorexia Nervosa Patients
    A dark past, a restrained present, and an apocalyptic future: time perspective, personality, and life satisfaction among anorexia nervosa patients Danilo Garcia1,2,3,4, Alexandre Granjard1, Suzanna Lundblad5 and Trevor Archer2,3 1 Blekinge Centre of Competence, Blekinge County Council, Karlskrona, Sweden 2 Department of Psychology, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden 3 Network for Empowerment and Well-Being, Sweden 4 Department of Psychology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden 5 Psychiatry Affective, Anorexia & Bulimia Clinic for Adults, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Gothenburg, Sweden ABSTRACT Background. Despite reporting low levels of well-being, anorexia nervosa patients express temperament traits (e.g., extraversion and persistence) necessary for high levels of life satisfaction. Nevertheless, among individuals without eating disorders, a balanced organization of the flow of time, influences life satisfaction beyond temperamental dispositions. A balanced time perspective is defined as: high past positive, low past negative, high present hedonistic, low present fatalistic, and high future. We investigated differences in time perspective dimensions, personality traits, and life satisfaction between anorexia nervosa patients and matched controls. We also investigated if the personality traits and the outlook on time associated to positive levels of life satisfaction among controls also predicted anorexia patients' life satisfaction. Additionally, we investigated if time perspective dimensions predicted life satisfaction beyond personality traits among both patients and controls. Method. A total of 88 anorexia nervosa patients from a clinic in the West of Sweden and Submitted 23 January 2017 Accepted 22 August 2017 111 gender-age matched controls from a university in the West of Sweden participated Published 14 September 2017 in the Study.

    MODULE 2 SWEDEN ELECTION 2002 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Swedish data set for CSES module 2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The election was held on September 15, 2002. Local and regional elections were held at the same time. The Swedish election study is separated into two samples, one pre election sample and one post election sample. The CSES module 2 is included in the post election part of the study. The CSES Module 2 data set include 1 060 respondents. Due to Swedish data laws the respondents in the Swedish election study 2002 were asked if they agreed to that their answers would be a part of international data set accessible on the Internet. Among the respondents there were 6 percent (70 respondents) which disagreed to this. The table below show the proportion of respondents that agreed and did not agreed in different social and political groups. For example the results shows that women, elderly, persons living outside large towns or cities and low educated people were somewhat more negative to that their answers would be accessible on the Internet. agree data on disagree data Internet on Internet sum percent n gender male 95 5 100 574 female 92 8 100 556 age 18-22 97 3 100 238 23-60 94 6 100 660 61-85 90 10 100 232 rural/urban rural area 91 9 100 189 small village 92 8 100 238 suburb to large town or city 93 7 100 235 large town or city 96 4 100 467 education low 89 11 100 205 middle 95 5 100 560 high 97 3 100 358 political interest

Most European countries imposed harsh physical distancing measures to save lives, and an economic downturn then ensued. As the countries of Europe and North America were cau- tiously trying to open up their economies in May 2020, there were questions about the short-term and long-term impact of the coro- navirus pandemic, the most important being whether the spread of the virus would intensify after the summer. With the number of Covid-19 cases rapidly increasing in September and October and with no vaccine available yet, governments in Europe began to impose stricter regulations to slow the spread of the virus.

The Institute carries out research and develop- ment covering the whole field of working life, on commission from The Ministry of Industry, Employ- ment and Communications. Research is multi- disciplinary and arises from problems and trends in working life. Communication and information are important aspects of our work. For more informa- tion, visit our website www.niwl.se Work Life in Transition is a scientific series published by the National Institute for Working Life. Within the series dissertations, anthologies and original research are published. Contributions on work organisation and labour market issues are particularly welcome. They can be based on research on the development of institutions and organisations in work life but also focus on the situation of different groups or individuals in work life. A multitude of subjects and different perspectives are thus possible. The authors are usually affiliated with the social, behavioural and humanistic sciences, but can also be found among other researchers engaged in research which supports work life development. The series is intended for both researchers and others interested in gaining a deeper understanding of work life issues. Manuscripts should be addressed to the Editor and will be subjected to a traditional review proce- dure.
