Abstract:

This thesis contributes to the conceptualisation of consumer competence in the context of pursuing a sustainable consumption lifestyle. It overcomes the limitations of decision-making perspectives, which conceive sustainable consumption as a problem solving exercise based on possessing the relevant information. Drawing on the findings from an investigation into the nature of the competence mobilised by consumers who are committed to the sustainability agenda, a more comprehensive formulation of the concept of competence is advanced. More specifically, competence, as a result of the study, is f

Abstract:

Women remain noticeably underrepresented in science despite remarkable gains in other fields, and in this dissertation, I posit that biased assessments of competence are a mechanism for fewer women pursuing - and succeeding in - science. Drawing from status characteristic theory, I expect that women will be assessed - and assess themselves - as less competent in science than men, which will in turn affect important career decisions and outcomes. In Chapter 2, I test whether similar women and men differ in their self-assessments of their scientific competence using an experimental design. As

Abstract:

Psychological flexibility (PF), the core process of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT; a third-wave cognitive-behavioral therapy), is the ability to stay focused on the present moment and intentionally engage in value-driven behavior despite experiencing difficult thoughts or feelings. This multifaceted construct includes components that target processes occurring both internally (e.g., cognitive processes) and behaviorally (e.g., value-consistent actions). Psychological flexibility has been applied to studies of adjustment in non-clinical samples and may be beneficial for college student

Role taking ability has been examined in many ways including developmental studies with normal subjects and studies which demonstrated role taking deficits in a variety of special populations. Recent data suggest that individuals with autism also show such deficits when compared to nonautistic mentally retarded subjects and normal subjects matched for mental age. These deficits in role taking ability have been proposed as one of the cognitive bases for the social interaction difficulties which are present in all autistic persons.

The higher occurrence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and sub-threshold autistic traits in males, relative to females, has been consistently documented in the literature (e.g., Fombonne 2003, 2005). In addition to potential biogenetic mechanisms, there is some evidence suggesting that differences in the behavioral manifestation of ASD symptoms and co-occurring psychopathology may play a role in the differential prevalence of ASD in males and females (e.g., Holtmann, Bolte, and Poustka, 2007; Lai et al., 2011; Solomon, Miller, Taylor, Hinshaw, and Carter, 2012).

Preschool-aged children spend a large proportion of their waking hours in early childhood education and care services.

Emotional competence is critical therefore for children’s well-being, navigation of social contexts, school readiness, and long-term academic success. It is und

Abstract:

This thesis is an exploration and analysis of what audiences may be learning about medical professionalism from the fictional television (TV) medical drama House MD. Fictional TV medical dramas are an important form of medical narrative in that they are usually created by writers with no medical training. As such, they carry a higher risk of portraying the practice of medicine inaccurately. A review of the scholarly literature reveals that there is a precedent for fictional TV medical dramas to affect viewers' perception of the practice of medicine and health behaviours, and viewers' understan

Many second language (L2) learners find L2 pronunciation difficult and experience perception and production problems leading to accented speech. There exists a great inter-learner variation in L2 phonological acquisition even among learners who have been exposed to the L2 since childhood. Such individual differences have been the focus of much second language acquisition (SLA) research. Relatively little attention has been paid to the role of learners' cognitive ability in the acquisition of L2 perceptual phonological competence.

Abstract:

No<br>Findings from surveys of qualified social work practitioners and students indicate a need for social work education and practice to focus attention both on the importance of religious and spiritual beliefs in the lives of many service users and on the potential usefulness of religious and spiritual interventions. In this British study, undertaken in 2003 and 2004, students were less likely than their qualified colleagues to consider religious or spiritually sensitive interventions as appropriate. Attitudes varied little between those students who held religious beliefs and those wh

Abstract:

Sales management research has concentrated on examining the antecedents and consequences of salespeople’s performance. Many of the existing studies have focused on assessing the direct relationship between antecedents and the consequences of salespeople’s performance. Suggestions from sales scholars (Walker, Jr., Churchill, Jr., and Ford 1977; Bagozzi 1978) of the indirect relationships antecedents and consequences of salespeople’s performance have received little attention (Challagala and Shervani 1996; Joshi and Randall 2001). In general, this research is aimed at examining empirically the d

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to offer a small contribution to the developing field of studying table-top role-playing games as a social activity by examining the practices in which players engage in order to display and develop their competence and identity as “role-playing gamers” in a particular social setting. The theoretical and analytical framework of nexus analysis (e.g. Scollon & Scollon, 2004; Jones & Norris, 2005) was chosen for its ability to engage complex social activities through the mapping of the historical trajectories of the participants’ accumulations of personal experie

Abstract:

Traditionally, John Stuart Mill has been described as a transitional thinker who fails to fully understand the values he espouses. Critics contend that he cannot simultaneously espouse both utility maximization and the protection of individual choice-making as a non-trumpable value. Like his moral philosophy, Mill’s political thought is also rejected for interspersing, seemingly at random, elements of utilitarianism with concerns about respecting individual choice-making. More recent attempts to bring Mill’s commitment to utilitarianism into line with his respect for individual choice-making a
