  • Examining Defensive Distancing Behavior in Close Relationships
    Examining defensive distancing behavior in close relationships: The role of self-esteem and emotion regulation Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Monica E. Lindgren, B.A. Psychology Graduate Program The Ohio State University 2012 Thesis Committee: Professor Janice K. Kiecolt-Glaser, Ph.D., Advisor Professor Julian Thayer, Ph.D. Professor Jennifer Cheavens, Ph.D. i Copyrighted by Monica E. Lindgren 2012 ii Abstract The risk regulation model proposes that people with low self-esteem (LSE), but not those with high self-esteem (HSE), react to potential threats to belonging by defensively distancing from their relationships. The present study hypothesized that self-focused rumination following threats to belonging, by forcing people with LSE to spend time considering their self-worth, would enhance this defensive distancing behavior. Participants were asked to recall self-relevant feedback they had received from someone they considered very close, and then completed a rumination or distraction task. Contrary to expectations, LSEs who were instructed to distract from threats to belonging reported more negative behavioral intentions towards their close other than those who were instructed to ruminate. However, in comparison to distraction, there was a trend for rumination to amplify LSEs’ negative affect following the recalled threats to belonging. Results are discussed in terms of their implications for risk regulation theory and for possible future directions. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Janice Kiecolt-Glaser, for all her support, feedback, and guidance over the past few years.

  • Individual Differences in Social Distancing and Mask-Wearing in the Pandemic of COVID-19
    1 Individual Differences in Social Distancing and Mask-Wearing in the Pandemic of COVID-19: The Role of Need for Cognition, Self-control, and Risk Attitude Ping Xu Wenzhou University Jiuqing Cheng University of Northern Iowa Version 3 Uploaded on Jan 30, 2021 Accepted by Personality and Individual Differences https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2021.110706 Correspondence: Jiuqing Cheng, [email protected] 2 Abstract In the United States, while the number of COVID-19 cases continue to increase, the practice of social distancing and mask-wearing have been controversial and even politicized. The present study examined the role of psychological traits in social distancing compliance and mask- wearing behavior and attitude. A sample of 233 U.S. adult residents were recruited from Amazon Mechanical Turk. Participants completed scales of social distancing compliance, mask-wearing behavior and attitude, need for cognition, self-control, risk attitude, and political ideology. Epidemiological information (seven-day positive rate and the number of cases per 100,000) was obtained based on the state participants resided in. As a result, epidemiological information did not correlate with protective behaviors. Political ideology, on the other hand, was a significant factor, with a more liberal tendency being associated with greater engagement in social distancing compliance and mask-wearing behavior an attitude. Importantly, those who were more risk averse, or had a higher level of self-control or need for cognition practiced more social distancing and mask-wearing, after controlling for demographics, epidemiological information, and political ideology. For mask-wearing behavior, political ideology interacted with both need for cognition and self-control.

  • Effects of Self-Distancing on Aggressive Affect, Cognition, and Behavior
    Flies on the wall are less aggressive: Effects of self-distancing on aggressive affect, cognition, and behavior. THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dominik Mischkowski Graduate Program in Psychology The Ohio State University 2012 Master's Examination Committee: Jennifer K. Crocker (Advisor) Brad J. Bushman William A. Cunningham Copyrighted by Dominik Mischkowski 2012 Abstract People tend to ruminate after being provoked, which is like using gasoline to put out a fire — it feeds the flame by keeping aggressive thoughts and angry feelings active. Previous research has shown that reflecting over past provocations from a self-distanced perspective reduces aggressive thoughts and angry feelings. However, it is unclear whether self-distancing ―in the heat of the moment‖ — immediately after provocation — has similar effects. In addition, no research has tested whether self-distancing reduces aggressive behavior. Two experiments addressed these issues. In Experiment 1, provoked participants who self-distanced had fewer aggressive thoughts and feelings than did provoked participants who self-immersed or were in a control group. Experiment 2 showed that provoked participants who self-distanced were less aggressive than were provoked participants who self-immersed or were in a control group. These findings demonstrate that self-distancing reduces aggression, even in the heat of the moment. ii Acknowledgments First of all, I want to thank Prof. Jennifer Crocker, Prof. Ethan Kross, Prof. Brad Bushman, and Prof. Wil Cunningham their constant advice and support. Without their mentorship and supervision, this thesis would not have been realized.

  • Motivations for Social Distancing and App Use As Complementary Measures to Combat the COVID-19 Pandemic: Quantitative Survey Study
    JOURNAL OF MEDICAL INTERNET RESEARCH Kaspar Original Paper Motivations for Social Distancing and App Use as Complementary Measures to Combat the COVID-19 Pandemic: Quantitative Survey Study Kai Kaspar, Prof Dr Dr Department of Psychology, University of Cologne, Cologne, Germany Corresponding Author: Kai Kaspar, Prof Dr Dr Department of Psychology University of Cologne Richard-Strauss-Str. 2 Cologne, 50931 Germany Phone: 49 221 470 2347 Email: [email protected] Abstract Background: The current COVID-19 pandemic is showing negative effects on human health as well as on social and economic life. It is a critical and challenging task to revive public life while minimizing the risk of infection. Reducing interactions between people by social distancing is an effective and prevalent measure to reduce the risk of infection and spread of the virus within a community. Current developments in several countries show that this measure can be technologically accompanied by mobile apps; meanwhile, privacy concerns are being intensively discussed. Objective: The aim of this study was to examine central cognitive variables that may constitute people's motivations for social distancing, using an app, and providing health-related data requested by two apps that differ in their direct utility for the individual user. The results may increase our understanding of people's concerns and convictions, which can then be specifically addressed by public-oriented communication strategies and appropriate political decisions. Methods: This study refers to the protection motivation theory, which is adaptable to both health-related and technology-related motivations. The concept of social trust was added. The quantitative survey included answers from 406 German-speaking participants who provided assessments of data security issues, trust components, and the processes of threat and coping appraisal related to the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection by social distancing.

  • Applying Construal Level Theory to Communication Strategies for Participatory Sustainable Development
    Applying Construal Level Theory to Communication Strategies for Participatory Sustainable Development D.H. Strongheart Florence Obison Fabio Bordoni School of Engineering Blekinge Institute of Technology Karlskrona, Sweden Thesis submitted for completion of Master of Strategic Leadership towards Sustainability, Blekinge Institute of Technology, Karlskrona, Sweden. Abstract: To the vast majority of people, the terms “sustainability” and “sustainable development” are unfamiliar, and, when they are recognized, there is still a great deal of interpretability as to their significance. Since no consensus exists regarding these terms, communication efforts to promote action and awareness among citizens must invariably “frame” the issue of sustainable development in one way or another. By and large, most communication strategies promote small private-sphere actions relevant to patterns of consumption. While these small actions are helpful, participatory, collective, public-sphere activism towards sustainability is much more potent and desirable. In attempting to engage this type of participatory action, communicators must understand the psychological barriers that are likely to confront their efforts. Communication professionals recognize that one such barrier, that of perceived, or, psychological distance, from issues of non-sustainability is especially pernicious. This paper attempts to apply Construal Level Theory (CLT), which provides “an account of how psychological distance influences individuals’ thoughts and behavior” (Trope et al. 2007) to the design of communication strategies for participatory sustainable development. After providing a thorough review of CLT, the authors examine the many ways that the theory can contribute to the design of communication strategies for participatory sustainable development. Keywords: Construal Level Theory, psychological distance, high construal mindset, framing, participatory sustainable development.

Empathic Control through Coordinated Interaction of Amygdala, Theory of Mind and Extended Pain Matrix Brain Regions Abstract Brain regions in the “pain matrix”, can be activated by observing or reading about others in physical pain. In previous research, we found that reading stories about others' emotional suffering, by contrast, recruits a different group of brain regions mostly associated with thinking about others' minds. In the current study, we examined the neural circuits responsible for deliberately regulating empathic responses to others' pain and suffering. In Study 1, a sample of college-aged participants (n = 18) read stories about physically painful and emotionally distressing events during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), while either actively empathizing with the main character or trying to remain objective.

HJCP Construal Level Theory and Consumer Behavior Construal Level Theory and Consumer Behavior Nira Liberman Tel Aviv University Yaacov Trope New York University Cheryl Wakslak New York University The three commentaries on our paper “Construal Levels and Psychological Distance: Effects on Representation, Prediction, Evaluation, and Behavior” offer insightful theoretical extensions and practical applications of construal level theory (CLT). We were inspired and challenged by the commentaries to elaborate on a number of issues, although our elaboration more often raises questions and speculations than provides definite answers. Owing to space limitations, however, we could discuss only some of the issues raised in the commentaries. The first set of issues concerns our theoretical framework, namely, similarities and differ- ences among distance dimensions, the question of additional distances, the nature of the interaction among distances, and the relationship between psychological distance and con- struct of stimulus information sampling. The second set of issues concerns applications of CLT to consumer choice, namely, how to make better decisions, the nature of regret, and how people construct and process choice sets.

SOCIAL DISTANCING AND MENTAL HEALTH 2 Abstract Purpose: Reducing the spread of infectious disease during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic prompted recommendations for individuals to limit physical contact with others and engage in social distancing. Less is known about why youth are engaging in social distancing and how these motivations are connected with their engagement, mental health, and social health. Using a large sample of adolescents from across the United States, this study examined adolescents’ motivations for social distancing, their engagement in social distancing, and their mental and social health. Methods: Data were collected March 29th and 30th 2020, two-weeks after COVID-19 was declared a national emergency in the United States. The sample consisted of 683 adolescents recruited using social media. A series of multiple linear regressions examined unique associations among adolescents’ motivations to engage in social distancing, social distancing behaviors, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, burdensomeness, and belongingness.
