Further Applications of Social Cognition to Göbekli Tepe
Göbekli Tepe is an archaeological site that has challenged much prior thought on human history with respect to our Neolithic revolution from animistic, egalitarian, hunter-gatherers to settled, socially stratified, and religious peoples. In the present paper we review the structures and possible purposes of Göbekli Tepe, summarize past considerations of the connection between psychological concepts and matters found thereat, and then introduce so…
The Clery Act and Student Behavior
The present study examined the utilization of Clery Act information by college students. Results from 107 students indicated that awareness of the Clery Act and knowledge of crime log information was lacking. Using an experimental design, study participants demonstrated potential benefits from exposure to information about campus crimes. This suggests that to further improve student safety, administrators may find it beneficial to focus on initia…
An intellectual history of psychology
Robert Sternberg and Wade Pickren have recently published (Sternberg & Pickren, 2019) the Cambridge Handbook of the Intellectual History of Psychology. It includes 30 contributors, 19 chapters, and
The Vices and Virtues of Consensual Non-Monogamy
The purpose of the present study was to examine associations between heterosexual consensually non-monogamous (CNM) and monogamous relationships and variables relating to relationship functioning and individual well-being. Participants (N = 555) were solicited online and asked to rate a number of items regarding their type of relationship, satisfaction, commitment, trust, conflict resolution style, and well-being. As compared to participants in m…
The “space” of history
Replies to comments by I. Gravier (see record 2020-68859-002), R. A. Blackwell and M. J. Rossano (see record 2020-68859-003), and D. L. Smail (see record 2020-68859-004) on the article by Henley (see record 2020-68859-001). That each of the commentators acknowledged the significance of the Neolithic for psychology was welcome, as were their alternative views on how such prehistoric events potentially fit with our discipline's history. As new scho…
On prehistoric psychology
The Neolithic Revolution has been heralded as the most significant sociocognitive change in human history, yet it is all but ignored by psychology. This gives rise to a reconsideration of the question "Where should the history of psychology begin?" Using the Neolithic archaeological site of Göbekli Tepe as a concrete case study, the advent of writing, organized religion, and our transition from being egalitarian bands of hunter-gatherers to socia…

Acculturation in relation to the acquisition of a second language
Learners who begin to acquire a second language (L2) in a naturalistic environment after puberty are thought to be constrained by biological age factors and to have greater difficulty obtaining native-like L2. However, the extant literature suggests that L2 acquisition may be positively affected by post-maturational factors, such as acculturation. This exploratory study examined the relationship between acculturation and L2 acquisition on Chinese…
The Relationship Between First Names and Teacher Expectations for Achievement Motivation
This study examines perceptions of achievement motivation as influenced by first name and student ethnicity. One hundred thirty elementary school teachers were given a vignette of a fifth-grade student and instructed to judge the behavior and characteristics of the student. Results showed that there was a significant main effect for an ethnic first name. Overall, significantly lower achievement scores were given by raters whose descriptions used …
Personality Characteristics of Martial Artists
This study used the MMPI-2 to explore the personalities of yellow-belt and black-belt martial artists. A total of 40 participants completed the MMPI-2 and a demographic questionnaire. Black-belt females tended to be less defensive than were other martial artists, but also displayed more paranoia and more anger than average. Females of both ranks reported a higher degree of anxiety and health concerns than did males in the study, and black-belt fe…
Some Thoughts on the Relationship Between Behaviorism, Comparative Psychology, and Ethology
Although there has been considerable literature produced on the relationship between behaviorism, comparative psychology, and ethology; there has not been a considerable consensus of opinion. Our position, more historically situated than many, argues that the crucial distinction remains simply: “Why does each discipline use animals as subjects?” Drawing on actual position statements by definitional figures, we believe that answers to this probati…
The Phenomenology of Everyday Life
The Phenomenology of Everyday Life presents results from a rigorous qualitative approach to the psychological study of everyday human activities and experiences. This book does not replace scientific observation with humanistic analysis, but provides an additional perspective on significant human questions. The qualitative approach this book employs is grounded in the philosophical traditions of existentialism and phenomenology, which use dialogu…
Is Psychology Really `the Study of Behavior
In this paper, we examine the concept `behavior' within the context of the development of American psychology. After explicating the term's meaning within ordinary usage, we argue that `behavior' is a theoretical construct within behavior analysis, and that its privileged status in psychology outside behavior analysis is really just a residuum from the days of the hegemony of behaviorism. The claim `psychology is the study of behavior' falters wi…

Finding Meaning in Random Analogies
In the following study, we reexamine the significance of the fact that subjects can solve randomly generated analogies. This phenomenon has long been demonstrable and has usually been viewed as evidence for the tremendous flexibility inherent in language. Such demonstrations have been used to question the idea that any type of psychologically interesting structure can be recovered from the study of language. In this article, the results of four r…
Language, Thought and Behavior
In recent years professor Shanon has provided a host of thought-provoking articles on various matters of "mind" (Shanon, 1988, 1989, 1990a, 1990b, 1990c). One, appearing in this journal (Shanon, 1990b), concerned what could be learned from the "knot in the handkerchief.quot; Shanon extends an invitation within that article for others to think with him about the relationship among language, thought, and behavior, and I would like to take the oppor…

The Phenomenology of Intimacy
Intimacy is a topic of importance with respect to many aspects of relationship theory and a variety of academic disciplines. A consideration of the literature reveals much research but little consensus on even such basic issues as a definition of intimacy. Given that, a phenomenological study was done to determine what ordinary people meant by, and experienced as, intimacy. Results of that study revealed seven major components to intimate experie…
Gender and Causal Attributions for Mastery, Personal, and Interpersonal Events
In two studies, achievement was conceptualized as consisting of affiliative as well as mastery events. Participants wrote about a recent achievement, provided causal attributions, and assessed the degree to which that achievement involved mastery, personal, and interpersonal themes in the first study. A second study randomly assigned participants a theme and asked them to assess the involvement of traditional correlates of achievement. Results in…
