Initial Evidence for a Brief Measure of Buddhist Coping in the United States
Although the field of spiritual coping has greatly expanded in recent years, there is no short scale of Buddhist coping as there is for the Abrahamic religions. The goal of the present study is to create the Brief BCOPE, a 15-item scale of Buddhist coping based on a study of 860 Buddhist participants across the United States. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses provide preliminary evidence of the construct validity of the Brief BCOPE, an…
Validation of a Buddhist Coping Measure Among Primarily Non-Asian Buddhists in the United States
Researchers have developed scales to measure religious coping among Christians, Jews, Muslims, and Hindus. However, there is no quantitative measure of religious coping for Buddhists. The present study describes the development and initial validation of a scale of Buddhist coping (BCOPE). Eight hundred sixty participants in the United States completed the BCOPE along with demographic information and scales of adjustment to stress. Construct valid…
A Needs-Based Perspective on Cultural Differences in Identity Formation
This article proposes a needs-based perspective toward understanding cultural differences in the self-identification of strengths and weaknesses. The authors argue that individuals have basic psychological needs for relatedness and autonomy; and that, because collectivistic and individualistic cultures tend to prioritize one need over the other, identities incorporate an awareness of the unmet need. The study's 210 Eastern (Chinese and Japanese) …
Effect of Self-awareness on Negative Affect Among Individuals with Discrepant Low Self-esteem
Past research suggests that individuals with discrepant low self-esteem (low explicit and high implicit self-esteem) may hold themselves against higher standards and judge themselves more critically when they fall short of those standards (Zeigler-Hill & Terry, 2007 Zeigler-Hill, V. and Terry, C. 2007. Perfectionism and explicit self-esteem: The moderating role of implicit self-esteem. Self and Identity, 6: 137–153. [Taylor & Francis Online], [We…
The Psychology of Strengths and Weaknesses
We examined the extent to which individuals from East Asia and North America exhibit self-enhancing and self-critical tendencies when appraising their personal strengths and weaknesses, to test whether a self-critical motivation may replace a self-enhancing motivation among Easterners. Four hundred four university students from Hong Kong, Japan, Canada, and the United States were surveyed concerning their beliefs about ten self-nominated positive…
Spiritual Coping in American Buddhists
Researchers in the United States have examined spiritual coping in Christians, Jews, Hindus, and Muslims, but rarely Buddhists. Using qualitative methodology, the present study represents an initial investigation into Buddhist forms of coping. Twenty-four Buddhists from across the United States were interviewed by phone, examining how their spirituality is used to cope with stress. Thematic analyses revealed six forms of Buddhist coping—right und…
Pulling yourself together
An inkblot for attitudes
Misattributions people make about their own affective reactions can be used to measure attitudes implicitly. Combining the logic of projective tests with advances in priming research, the affect misattribution procedure (AMP) was sensitive to normatively favorable and unfavorable evaluations (Experiments 1-4), and the misattribution effect was strong at both fast and slow presentation rates (Experiments 3 and 4). Providing further evidence of val…
The Chameleon Effect as Social Glue
Self-Monitoring Without Awareness
This research sought to extend the current conceptualization of self-monitoring by examining whether self-monitoring motives and behaviors can operate outside of conscious awareness. Two studies examined nonconscious mimicry among high and low self-monitors in situations varying in affiliative cues. Participants interacted with a confederate who shook her foot (Study 1) or touched her face (Study 2). In both studies, high self-monitors were more …
