Abstract:
The aim of the current study was to investigate the roles of meta-mood experience on the mood congruency effect in recognizing emotions from neutral facial expressions. For this aim, three scales were translated and adapted to Turkish, namely Brief Mood Introspection Scale (BMIS), State Meta-Mood Scale (SMMS), and Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS). The reliability and validity analyses came out to be satisfactory. For the main analyses, an experimental study was conducted. The experimental design consisted of the administration of the Brief Symptom Inventory, Pre- induction Brief Mood Introspection

Abstract:
Previous research on mere ownership effect has shown that merely possessing an object results in enhanced evaluation of that object (Beggan, 1992), when compared with unowned (Belk, 1988; Dittmar, 1992; Prelinger, 1959) or others-owned object (Nesselroade et al., 1999). Since people see their possessions as an extension of their self-identities (Belk, 1988), it is suggested that making self-enhancing judgments about possessions would satisfy owners' desires to maintain positive self-image. Extending the traditional mere ownership effect, this thesis examined whether people perceive having endo

Abstract:
Smells are being included as key components of product offerings in an ever increasing number of product categories. However, this practice is guided only by intuitive beliefs that the addition of smells might lead to richer brand identities, help brand preference etc. This is because olfaction research in marketing is in its infancy while studies in branding have focused on strategies to extend a brand's existing equity rather than on issues relating to the initial formation of brand knowledge structures.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the role of the self-concept on ethical consumption behaviour within the Thai consumer context. Religiosity has an influence on a person’s self and morality as Thai people place high importance on religious values. Ten consumers are studied through in-depth, phenomenological interviews, focusing on ethical consumption experiences and meanings. The self-concept is viewed as an experiencer and a moral entity that is dynamic and contextual between internal and external values.

Sustainability has become an important topic in many parts of society. However, companies struggle to translate it into their processes.

Abstract:
Weight loss attempts and weight loss maintenance are often unsuccessful in part due to dieters’ vulnerability to palatable food cues. Exposure to diet-congruent cues has thus been proposed as a goal priming strategy to counteract this vulnerability. Diet-congruent cues increase the salience of diet thoughts and reduce subsequent snack intake in restrained eaters. However, little is known about the impact of diet-congruent cue exposure on food intake in those actively dieting. Given that dieters hold goals to lose weight, diet-congruent cues might be particularly salient to dieters and cue diet

Individuals have an increasing number of work-related role-identities (RIDs). Identity theory (IDT) helps explain how the psychological importance (i.e., centrality) of one’s RIDs—arranged in a relatively stable, cognitive schema—and perceived social cues from one’s leader interact to shape role-related behaviors and work-related attitudes. Despite the theory’s emphasis on dyadic interaction, the extant literature has focused primarily on only one side of the interaction at a time, either from the leader’s perspective (e.g., getting followers to identify more strongly with a team RID) or more

Abstract:
abstract: Individuals are attracted to occupational environments that align with their interests and personality characteristics (Holland, 1985, 1997). When an individual's attributes (i.e., needs, abilities, values and/or interests) align with the occupational environment's characteristics an individual is more satisfied. Past research suggests this relation is modest at best, hovering between .20 and .30 (Meyer et al., 2001, c.f. Wilkins & Tracey, 2014), with slightly higher estimates (ranging from .24 to .35) depending on how the variables of person and environment were measured (Kristof-Br

Abstract:
The goal of this dissertation was to examine how people pursue their personal goals in the context of an intimate relationship. Two studies were conducted; a daily diary study of dating partners’ joint activities and a longitudinal study of newly dating couples. In the daily diary study, people reported on their daily joint activities with their dating partners regarding whether their goals were met and how they were feeling during the given activity. The results showed that when people’s goals were met in an activity, their partners were able to accurately perceive that their goals were being

Abstract:
This study uses cross-sectional survey data gathered from supervisor-employee dyads to examine the role of employee-initiated information seeking behaviour in the development of dyad members' beliefs. Specifically, employees' use of inquiries directed at their supervisors is contrasted with their use of monitoring the workplace environment in the development of beliefs regarding employment obligations that represent the psychological contract. Whether agreement between dyad members concerning the psychological contract is the result of greater use of the information-seeking strategies is the m

Abstract:
This thesis explores the relationship between a pastor’s personal ministry identity and the church role expectations that he encounters in the local church within which he ministers and takes place in the context of the discipline of “Building up the local church”. It is the hypothesis of this thesis that many Baptist pastors within the Baptist Union of Southern Africa are compromising the integrity of their own personal ministry identities in an attempt to meet the church role expectations of their local churches. The study considers firstly the nature development of personal identity in gene

Abstract:
Coordination in software development, especially in global software development, is important because a team cannot perform well unless its team members communicate and maintain awareness of each other's activities. In order to improve socio-technical coordination, which is coordination among team members who work on interdependent technical entities, it must be conceptualized and measured. One measurement of coordination is socio-technical congruence, which calculates the alignment between technical relationships and social relationships. The problem is that there are a large number o
