Predicting Psychological Distress and Flourishing During the Covid-19 Pandemic in Brazil
This study investigated positive and negative predictors of depression, anxiety, stress, and flourishing among Brazilian adults during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The sample consisted of 665 adults (77% women), aged between 18 and 79 years (M= 36.70; SD = 13.12), who completed a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Brief-COPE Inventory, the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale, the PERMA Profiler, the Acceptance and Action Questionnai…
Do left-wingers discriminate? A cross-country study on the links between political orientation, values, moral foundations, and the Covid-19 passport
To increase Covid-19 vaccine uptake and protect vulnerable people, many countries have introduced a Covid-19 passport in 2021, allowing vaccinated individuals to access indoor facilities more freely and travel to foreign countries. However, the passport has had unintended consequences as it discriminates against those who do not want to get vaccinated for medical, religious, or political reasons, or those who do not have access to vaccines. The p…
Are my parents psychopaths? How Mental health and self-esteem is impacted by perceived dark traits in parents
Relationships between parents and their descendants are necessary for healthy socio-emotional development. For a better understanding of these relationships, past studies found that personality traits significantly impact parenting constructs, such as attachment patterns, parental care, and relationship satisfaction, suggesting that the psychological aspects of parents can affect their descendants. In our research (N = 250), we asked participants…
A cross‐country assessment of conspiracy beliefs, trust in institutions, and attitudes towards the Covid‐19 vaccination
Conspiracy beliefs have spread during the Covid‐19 pandemic. It is important to understand them because of their potential to undermine trust in societal institutions and willingness to get vaccined. In the present research ( N = 538), we assessed the links between conspiracy beliefs, trust in institutions (e.g., government, WHO), and attitudes towards the Covid‐19 vaccination across the USA, Brazil and the UK. A moderated mediation analysis reve…

Brief Resilience Scale: Ampliando suas evidências psicométricas em contexto brasileiro
Resilience describes the individual's ability to adapt positively to adversities and stressors in life. Considering the importance of the construct for people's physical and mental health, its proper assessment is a primary concern among researchers. In the present study (N = 591), we gathered additional evidence for the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS). More specifically, replicating the validity evidence based on the internal structure, corroborati…
Validation of the Attitude Scale to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Old Age in a Colombian Sample
The Attitude Scale to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Old Age (EAFV-LGBT) evaluates attitudes towards LGBT older adults. The main goal of this research was to adapt and examine the psychometric properties in a Spanish-speaking sample. The sample consisted of 521 Colombian adults (36.3% men and 63.7% women) with a mean age equal to 27.39 ( SD = 9.27). Participants completed a Socio-Demographic and Sexual History Questionnaire, the Hispanic …

Indirect effects of preference for intense music on mental health through positive and negative affect
Previous studies explored the relations between preference for intense music (i.e., alternative, heavy metal, punk, and rock) and mental health. However, the results so far are inconclusive and do not assess if a preference for intense music directly or indirectly predicts mental health. To address this issue, the present research assessed the mediational role of positive and negative affect on the relation between preference for intense music an…
A Short Version of the Big Five Inventory (BFI-20): Evidence on Construct Validity
Several measures were developed in the past decades to measure personality, focusing on the Big Five Factor Model (BFFM; Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism). Despite the relevance of their findings in different countries, a shared limitation of such measures is their length, demanding time from researchers and participants, which might cause boredom or fatigue, biasing the final results. This research aimed …
Psychometric properties of the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS) in Brazil
We aimed to adapt the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (CAS) in Brazil, using a range of statistical techniques (e.g., factor analysis, item response theory). Two studies were conducted ( N total = 512). The unidimensional structure presented a good model fit and reliability, significant convergent validity, and all items presenting very high discrimination levels, adequately assessing medium and high anxiety levels. We also gathered evidence on cutoff …
A multi-country test of brief reappraisal interventions on emotions during the Covid-19 pandemic
Essa eu vou postar: Explorando as relações entre narcisismo, uso do Instagram e a moderação da autoestima
O narcisismo envolve características como exibicionismo, grandiosidade e necessidade constante de ser admirado. Tais características apontam o papel fundamental que este traço de personalidade pode ter para explicar o uso do Instagram. Esta rede social parece ser um cenário propício para que os narcisistas possam se autopromover e manterem seu autoconceito grandioso e irrealístico, buscando feedback positivo por meio de curtidas, visualizações e …
Psychometric Evidence of the 7-Item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire in Brazil
Psychometric Evidence of the Short Almost Perfect Scale (Saps) in Brazil
Perfectionism can be understood as a personality trait that establishes excessively high standards for the performance of individuals and ostensibly critical self-evaluations. It is associated with a range of variables, such as anxiety, suicidal tendencies, depression, and low satisfaction with life. The Short Almost Perfect Scale (SAPS) overcame some limitations of previous measures (e.g., ambiguity, nonnecessary factors). In the present researc…
The Perception of Family, City, and Country Values Is Often Biased
People often make inferences about the values of other people in their families, cities, and countries, but there are reasons to expect systematic biases in these inferences. Across four studies ( N = 1,763), we examined people's perceptions of the values of their families, fellow citizens of the cities in which they live, and compatriots across three nations (Brazil, Germany, the United Kingdom). Our results show that people systematically mispe…
Escala de Disposição para Perdoar: Estrutura, consistência interna e invariância fatorial
Este artigo teve como objetivo adaptar para o contexto brasileiro a Escala de Disposição para Perdoar, conhecendo evidências de validade (fatorial e convergente) e precisão (consistência interna, homogeneidade e confiabilidade composta). Nesse sentido, realizaram-se dois estudos. No estudo 1, participaram 220 estudantes universitários de uma instituição privada de João Pessoa, Paraíba, com idade média de 24 anos (81,7% do sexo feminino), que resp…
