Interrelatedness of Proactive Coping, Reactive Coping, and Learned Resourcefulness
Research has identified that coping strategies used by individuals depend on temporal locations of stressors. Dispositional attributes are also identified as predictors of coping. The current study identified commonalities of proactive coping, reactive coping, and learned resourcefulness measures. The analysis yielded three factors reflective of the coping process.Keywordsmeasurementexploratory factor analysiscopingdiversity issues NotesThe autho…
Behavior expectations in cross‐sex friendships, same‐sex friendships, and romantic relationships
In 2 studies, university students from the United States rated the importance of 43 behavior expectations about their cross‐sex friends, same‐sex friends and romantic partners. In Study 1, all 399 participants had a current romantic partner, whereas in Study 2, romantic partner status varied across the 165 participants. Participants always rated their expectations for romantic partners higher than for either type of friend, and expectations for b…
Judgments about the hypothetical behaviors of friends and romantic partners
Two studies investigated college students' ratings about hypothetical behaviors performed by a self-reported friend or romantic partner. In Study 1 participants read scenarios involving themselves and a friend, romantic partner or unfamiliar peer whose behavior resulted in either a positive or negative outcome for the participant. Ratings of the partner's behavior were equally positive for friends and romantic partners and were both significantly…
Judgment Biases and Characteristics of Friendships of Mexican American and Anglo-American Girls and Boys
Gender and ethnic patterns in ratings and assessments of four dimensions of friendship qualities were investigated (emotional attachment, support, shared activities, and conflicts) with 122 Anglo-American and Mexican American early adolescents (63 girls; mean age 10.36 years), as were links between ratings and assessments. Participants named a favorite friend, rated their perceptions of the hypothetical behaviors of that friend or an unfamiliar p…
Convergence between self and peer in the response-time processing of trait-relevant information
Research on "self-schemas" has extensively documented the effects of these hypothesized cognitive structures on the processing of self-knowledge, but it has neglected to establish whether these structures correspond to knowledge other persons possess about an individual's personality traits and whether this peer-knowledge is represented by cognitive structures similar to self-schemas. In the present study, "schematic" measures such as response ti…
Use of exemplars and abstractions in trait judgments
According to pure exemplar models, trait judgments about the self and others are accomplished by retrieving from memory trait-exemplifying behaviors and computing the similarity between the trait and the exemplars retrieved. By contrast, pure abstraction models argue that trait judgments are made by directly accessing abstract, summary knowledge of the person's traits. In a series of 4 studies, the role of behavioral exemplars and abstract trait …

Event memory
Three experiments with undergraduate subjects investigated the mental representations that people form when they recall and chronologically order their personal experiences. Subjects in each study first recalled five events that occurred to them in two general periods of their life (e.g., high school and college). Later, they saw pairs of these events and judged the order in which they occurred. It typically took less time to compare events that …
Event memory
We used comparative judgment procedures in two experiments to investigate the cognitive processes that mediate people's reconstruction of the social events they read about. Subjects in Experiment 1 read a passage describing a series of behaviors manifested by a person in three situations. Subsequently, they were given pairs of these actions and were asked to judge either which action occurred sooner or which occurred later. These judgments were (…
