Evolutionary Function and Therapeutic Implications of Reactions to Success and Failure
We examine the impact of winning/success and defeat/failure, on individual and family functioning. Defeat, at both the individual and family level, triggers an array of psychological and physiological reactions that, while adaptive on the one hand, may trigger or perpetuate problems. We explore these mechanisms along with broader evolutionary forces operating on the family. A number of therapeutic interventions are offered, designed to deactivate…
Building mental toughness
We evaluated a curriculum that focused on bolstering grit and locus of control in seventh grade students at a school in upstate New York. The intervention included lessons aimed at building a growth mindset and determination, along with writing projects and collaborative work. A pre−post design was utilized such that surveys measuring grit and locus of control were administered at the beginning of the school year and at the end of the school year…

In the present study, we employed an evolutionary approach to understand environmental attitudes. Specifically, we examined the role of status striving and hypercompetitiveness as they related to overconsumption and climate change attitudes. A mixed student/community sample (Mean age = 33.6) completed measures relat…
Perfectionism, Type D personality, and illness-related coping styles in cardiac rehabilitation patients
This study investigated the associations among trait perfectionism, perfectionistic self-presentation, Type D personality, and illness-specific coping styles in 100 cardiac rehabilitation patients. Participants completed the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale, the Perfectionistic Self-Presentation Scale, the Type D Scale-14, and the Coping with Health Injuries and Problems Scale. Correlational analyses established that emotional preoccupation c…
