Participants were 1086 grades 9–11 students (respective N s = 380, 369, 337) from 3 coeducational middle-class schools in me…

The role of goal structures and peer climate in trajectories of social achievement goals during high school
Students' social goals--reasons for engaging in interpersonal relationships with peers--are consequential for students' interactions with their peers at school and for their well-being. Despite the salience of peer relationships during adolescence, research on social goals is generally lacking compared with academic goals, and it is unknown how these social goals develop over time, especially among high school students. The aim of the study was t…
There's No Place Like Home? The Contributions of Work and Nonwork Creativity Support to Employees' Creative Performance.
We examined relations between creative performance and the extent to which employees received support for creativity from both work (supervisors/coworkers) and non-work (family/friends) sources. We also examined whether (1) employees' mood states mediated the support-creativity relations and (2) creative personality characteristics moderated these relations. Results demonstrated that work and nonwork support made significant, independent contribu…
