In this option you will also study the topic of social responsibility: what makes people stand by instead of helping one another in an emergency; why some people are actively prosocial and assist others, sometimes at risk or expense to themselves, and how this prosocial behaviour of can be encouraged.

With longitudinal data collected from both partners in young adult dating couples, we examined how self–disclosure is associated with both individual char- acteristics (e.g., responsiveness, self–esteem) and relationship characteristics (sat- isfaction, love, commitment).

Romantic jealousy is an important phenomenon in public health, as it brings consequences for the subject, the couple and the rival, even to the point of death. This theory-based study performed a systematic review of the re- search published in major international databases and platforms, as of December, 2016. The results of 230 studies that met the inclusion criteria were classified in pursuance of the variables associated with jealousy: a) personal variables (differences in sex, sexual orientation, hormones / use of contraceptives, self-esteem, attachment style and use of alcohol); b) interpersonal variables (romantic love, satisfaction and violence); c) sociocultural variables (transcultural comparisons, features of the rival and social networks). Future studies, with sufficient statistical robustness, should achieve a clinical formulation that indicates the relevance and predictive power of each variable.

  • Altmetrics, Alternative Indicators for Web of Science Communication Journals
    Altmetrics, alternative indicators for Web of Science Communication journals Repiso, Rafael Universidad Internacional de La Rioja Castillo-Esparcia, Antonio Universidad de Málaga Torres-Salinas, Daniel Universidad de Granada Preprint version. Please cite original version: Repiso, R., Castillo-Esparcia, A. & Torres-Salinas, D. (2019). Altmetrics, alternative indicators for Web of Science Communication studies journals. Scientometrics. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-019-03070. ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to analyse the occurrence of communication journals in the so-called Altmetrics (Facebook, Mendeley, Twitter, etc.) and how these indicators relate to each other and to the citations received. To this end, we study how the articles published by the Journal Citation Reports of the Web of Science for the 5-year period 2013–2017 on the Altmetric.com platform are registered. The results show how only a few platforms have significant coverage for studying the whole and in the case of Mendeley and Twit-ter, the coverage is superior to the citations offered by Web of Science. There is a proven relationship between citations and their occurrence on social media and platforms and their intensity varies by product. In general, the journals with the highest number of citations (Journal of Computer Mediated, Journal of Communication or New Media & Society) with few exceptions (Continuum) stand out. 1 1. Introduction With the appearance of web 2.0 and social media, the communication processes of scientific journals are changing and becoming more democratic. In the past, it was the exclusive function of scientific journals to evaluate and publish papers (Repiso 2015). With this new digital scenario, the number of distribution channels has increased, and in addition, the task of dissemination has become a shared responsibility between the journal, authors and producer research centres, thus empowering these traditionally passive actors and offering possibilities for interaction and bidirectionality (Leiner and Quiring 2008).

Steffen Department of Psychology Brigham Young University Copyright © 2019 Elena Kelsey Henderson All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Cross-Group Relationship Satisfaction: A Meta-Analysis Elena Kelsey Henderson Department of Psychology, BYU Master of Science Cross-group relationships are defined by romantic relationships involving two individuals from distinct racial or ethnic groups. For this paper, the terms “interethnic” and “interracial” are used as specifiers for the umbrella terms, “intergroup” and “cross-group.” Studies examining whether cross-group romantic relationships are more or less satisfying than intergroup romantic relationships have yielded discrepant findings. Through a systematic review and meta-analysis of 27 studies, we found that there are no significant difference between cross-group and intergroup relationship satisfaction (aggregate d = .024, 95% CI [-0.076; 0.123]).
