In meiner Dissertationsschrift unterschied ich zwischen expliziten und impliziten Repräsentationen der eigenen Persönlichkeit und konzeptualisierte diese als Teile des reflektiven bzw. impulsiven Systems (Strack & Deutsch, in press). Am Beispiel der Persönlichkeitseigenschaften Schüchternheit, Ängstlichkeit und Ärgerlichkeit erfasste ich implizite Repräsentationen des Persönlichkeits-Selbstkonzeptes mit Hilfe von Impliziten Assoziations Tests (IATs, Greenwald, McGhee & Schwartz, 1998) und den neuen Impliziten Assoziations Prozeduren (IAPs) als indirekte Messverfahren.

Abstract:

Growing interest in the sphere of student academic engagement can be explained by practical reasons. Engagement in school affects such aspects as academic conduct, achievement, and emotions experienced in school. Antecedents of student engagement may rise from school and classroom environment. Thus, ensuring availability of opportunities for engagement in classroom is likely to result in increased learning. Engagement is an extremely complicated phenomenon embracing students’ emotional, cognitive, and behavioral characteristics. Engagement has a lot in common, but is different from such conce

Abstract:

An MDS (MultiDimenaional Scaling) model of personality assessment is presented as an alternative method of personality assessment designed to incorporate recently discovered cognitive principles relating to how people mentally organize categories (Roach, 1978), including personality trait categories (Broughton, 1984). The MDS model is shown to generalize from a tool for evaluating the self concept and the semantics of interpersonal categories (Partridge, 1984) to one that taps the full gamut of personality assessment in the interpersonal domain as defined by Wiggins (1979). In this paradigm, s

Abstract:

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a serious psychiatric disorder characterised by turbulent interpersonal relationships, impaired self image, impulsivity, and a recurrent pattern of unstable affect which is usually evident by early adulthood. It has a community prevalence rate of two per cent, and approximately nine per cent of people diagnosed with BPD commit suicide. This suggests that BPD has one of the highest lethality rates of all psychiatric disorders. The course of the disorder shows a steady improvement over the course of early adulthood with the majority of cases remitting by

This thesis focuses on the development of an operational and theoretically eclectic concept of psychological well-being. A comprehensive research strategy was employed to examine various personality factors thought to be components of psychological health (i.e., the basis of the proposed concept).

Abstract:

Emotional intelligence (EI) has been reliably associated with better mental health (Martins, Ramalho, & Morin, 2010) however the nature of this relationship in adolescence remains largely unexplored. The small body of existing adolescent research is disproportionately focussed upon the ‘trait’ versus ‘ability’ EI perspective and the association with mood (versus behavioural) disorders in the form of simple, descriptive relationships that reveal little about the processes underpinning such adaptive outcomes. This research redresses this imbalance and advances the field by examining how (whether

From this investigation, a total of four character designs have been developed - two"good" and two "evil" - within two different game titles of different graphical styles: One that is more cartoony/stylized and one that is more realistic.

This stream of research has vigorously explored the relations between the fit (i.e., "self-brand image congruity" or "self-congruity") and various behavioral outcomes. Nonetheless, this research str
