  • The early bird catches the worm, but falls exhausted from the branch at dusk

    Open AccessChristopher Gehrig, Philipp Y HerzbergARTICLECurrent Psychology2025

    The tendency to postpone tasks until the very last minute, whether in an academic setting, at school, or at the workplace, is a many common phenomenon experienced by individuals. This behavior, known as procrastination, has been extensively researched. While a significant number of people prefer to tackle tasks immediately rather than delaying them, there is limited research on the opposite behavior, often referred to as “precrastination.” This s…

  • Cross-cultural validation and standardization of the Impostor-Profile 30

    Open AccessFabio Ibrahim, Elena Druică et al.ARTICLECurrent Psychology2025

    The impostor phenomenon describes a maladaptive personality style marked by persistent self-doubt and fear of being exposed as a fraud despite evident success. Despite its global relevance, the construct’s cross-cultural measurement invariance has not yet been empirically established. This study assessed the measurement invariance of the Impostor-Profile 30 across six European countries ( N = 2472; 60.0% female; M age = 31.34, SD = 13.36), and st…

  • Assessing the desire for aesthetics

    Open AccessBjarn-Ove Tetzlaff, Selina M Weiler et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2024

    OBJECTIVES: Individuals vary in their levels of Desire for Aesthetics, ranging from superficial interest to profound immersion. However, there is currently a lack of measurement tools available to assess Desire for Aesthetics across various domains within German-speaking populations. Addressing this gap, the present study aimed to develop the Desire for Aesthetics Scale in German (DFAS-G) and evaluate its psychometric properties to comprehensivel…

  • An experimental study of the non-self-serving attributional bias within the impostor phenomenon and its relation to the fixed mindset

    Open AccessFabio Ibrahim, Dana Göddertz et al.ARTICLECurrent Psychology2023

    The Impostor Phenomenon describes people characterized by a non-self-serving attributional bias towards success. In this experimental between-subjects design, we conducted a bogus intelligence test in which each subject was assigned to a positive or negative feedback condition. Our sample consisted of N = 170 individuals (51% female). The results showed that the impostor expression moderates the influence of feedback on locus of causality and sta…

  • Predictors of sexual aggression among gay men and lesbian women

    Open AccessLea Waldis, Philipp Y Herzberg et al.ARTICLEAggressive Behavior2023Cited by: 1References: 55

    The present study investigated whether the core constructs of Malamuth's confluence model (i.e., hostility against individuals of the same sex and sexual orientation [HASSO], impersonal sexuality [IS], and high dominance/low nurturance [HDLN]) could predict sexual aggressive behavior (SA) of gay men against other gay men and of lesbian women against other lesbian women. For both gay men ( N = 226) and lesbian women ( N = 190) regression analysis …

  • Do what matters, no matter what! Factorizing positive activities during Covid-19 lockdown

    Open AccessPhilipp Y Herzberg, Tanja Stender et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Psychology2023References: 45

    Behavioral activation (BA) interventions systematically encourage positive and value-based activities. Engaging in them is an effective way to counteract negative affect, but it is unknown whether there are subtypes of activities that may have differential effects on mood. This study investigated the factorial structure of 99 potentially rewarding activities used in an online BA intervention during the COVID-19 lockdown. About 3624 German-speakin…

  • User-Defined Relationships

    Open AccessLynne Marie Stöven, Philipp Y HerzbergARTICLESocial Media + Society2023Cited by: 1References: 46

    The rise of social network sites (SNSs) provided users with new ways to initiate and maintain personal relationships. Numerous functions (e.g., messaging, sharing, and reacting on content) allow for social interaction customized to distinct relationship needs and behaviors. This study investigated the associations of attachment style with distinct SNS usage patterns. Furthermore, the relationships of SNS (1) motives, (2) activities, and (3) outco…

  • The facets of an impostor – development and validation of the impostor-profile (IPP31) for measuring impostor phenomenon

    Open AccessFabio Ibrahim, Johann-Christoph Münscher et al.ARTICLECurrent Psychology2022

    The Impostor Phenomenon (IP) is a characteristic, which is composed of cognitions of inauthenticity, in conjunction with fear of failure, as well as fear of being exposed as a fraud. The IP was first described by Clance (1985), who also developed an accompanying questionnaire. However, this questionnaire left room for optimization (item content, pysychometric properties, and the representing IP as a multidimensional construct). Therefore, we deve…

  • The validation of the English Impostor-Profile 30 and the exploratory formulation of the learned helplessness model of the impostor phenomenon

    Open AccessFabio Ibrahim, Johann-Christoph Münscher et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2022

    The learned helplessness model of the Impostor Phenomenon is an exploratory approach to explain the Impostor Phenomenon by linking the constructs of growth mindset, learned helplessness, grit, thought-action fusion, and defensive pessimism. In this study, we (a) confirmatorily tested the factor structure of the English IPP30, (b) examined the instrument's nomological validity, and (c) exploratorily formulated a path model to explain the effects o…

  • Males benefit twice—The influence of equity on affective and physical attraction in couples

    Open AccessJanine Quittschalle, Philipp Y HerzbergARTICLEPersonal Relationships2017References: 16

    We examined whether relationship satisfaction mediates the association between perceptions of equity in central areas of a relationship (feelings and attractiveness) and the experience of sexuality in a sample of 93 couples. Results reveal that greater levels of an individual's own relationship satisfaction significantly predict greater levels of an individual's affective and physical sexual attraction. Furthermore, findings also provide some sup…

  • On the role of dominance and nurturance in the confluence model

    Open AccessStefan J Troche, Philipp Y Herzberg et al.ARTICLEAggressive Behavior2017Cited by: 2References: 40

    Malamuth's (1998) confluence model holds that the combination of hostile masculinity, impersonal sexuality, and the constellation of high dominance and low nurturance plays a crucial role in explaining men's sexual aggression against women. Most studies on the confluence model concentrate on hostile masculinity and impersonal sexuality rather than dominance and nurturance. Using a person-centered approach, we investigated whether sexual aggressiv…

  • First-time parenthood under socially disadvantaged conditions

    Susan Sierau, Tanja Jungmann et al.ARTICLEJournal of Family Studies2013References: 5

    Systemic models assume that quality of interparental and parent–child relationships are related to adult attachment representations in internal working models. Previous studies have confirmed this, but failed to consider interpersonal mechanisms such as relationship satisfaction as latent variables. Further, these relations in socially disadvantaged first-time parents are understudied The present study sheds more light on that area by investigati…

  • Validation and Standardization of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Screener (GAD-7) in the General Population

    Bernd Löwe, Oliver Decker et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2008References: 40

    BACKGROUND: The 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) is a practical self-report anxiety questionnaire that proved valid in primary care. However, the GAD-7 was not yet validated in the general population and thus far, normative data are not available. OBJECTIVES: To investigate reliability, construct validity, and factorial validity of the GAD-7 in the general population and to generate normative data. RESEARCH DESIGN: Nationally rep…

  • Separating optimism and pessimism

    Philipp Y Herzberg, Lynne Marie Stöven et al.ARTICLEPsychological Assessment2006

    The internal structure of the revised Life Orientation Test (LOT-R, German version; M. F. Scheier, C. S. Carver, & M. W. Bridges, 1994) was analyzed in a sample of 46,133 participants who ranged in age from 18 years to 103 years. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that dispositional optimism, as measured by the LOT-R, is bidimensional, consisting of an Optimism and a Pessimism factor. Consistent with previous results, there were small to moderat…

There was no model misspecification. The most important results were that with 2 and 3 categories the rejection rate…

  • Eine revidierte Fassung der deutschsprachigen Skala zum Selbstwertgefühl von Rosenberg

    Für die deutschsprachige Fassung der Rosenberg-Skala zum Selbstwertgefühl von Ferring und Filipp (1996) wird eine Teilrevision vorgeschlagen. Ein Item der bisherigen Skalenversion stellte sich in eigenen Analysen als psychometrisch unzulänglich heraus und weist eine mangelnde inhaltliche Validität auf. Dadurch ist möglicherweise die Vergleichbarkeit mit der Originalversion und mit Adaptationen der Rosenberg-Skala in anderen Sprachen nicht gewährl…
