Off to the Polls and Then Down the Ballot: Are Union Members Less Likely to Roll-Off
Unions are successful at mobilizing voter turnout, but does this success translate to voting down-ballot? Raising this question brings together two disparate strains of research on ballot-roll off and union voter mobilization. Using data from the Cooperative Election Study (2012, 2016, and 2020), we find that union voters are more likely to vote in down ballot U.S. House, Senate, and gubernatorial elections. Though members of union households are…
Focusing Narrowly on Model Fit in Factor Analysis Can Mask Construct Heterogeneity and Model Misspecification: Applied Demonstrations across Sample and Assessment Types
This study builds upon research indicating that focusing narrowly on model fit when evaluating factor analytic models can lead to problematic inferences regarding the nature of item sets, as well as how models should be applied to inform measure development and validation. To advance research in this area, we present concrete examples relevant to researchers in clinical, personality, and related subfields highlighting two specific scenarios when …
The daily association between affect and alcohol use: A meta-analysis of individual participant data
Influential psychological theories hypothesize that people consume alcohol in response to the experience of both negative and positive emotions. Despite two decades of daily diary and ecological momentary assessment research, it remains unclear whether people consume more alcohol on days they experience higher negative and positive affect in everyday life. In this preregistered meta-analysis, we synthesized the evidence for these daily associatio…
Linking Daily-Life Interpersonal Stressors and Health Problems Via Affective Reactivity in Borderline Personality and Depressive Disorders
OBJECTIVE: Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is associated with unstable interpersonal relationships, affective instability, and physical health problems. In individuals with BPD, intense affective reactions to interpersonal stressors may contribute to the increased prevalence of health problems. METHODS: BPD (n = 81) and depressed participants (DD; n = 50) completed six daily ambulatory assessment prompts for 28 days. At each prompt, partici…
The role of mortality awareness in hero identification
Three studies examine hypotheses derived from terror management theory to investigate the relationship between mortality concerns and hero identification. Study 1 found reminders of death, followed by a distraction task and a self-prime, led to greater inclusion of heroes in the self. Study 2 found that writing about a personal hero, but not other’s heroes or acquaintances, led to lower death-thought accessibility after being reminded of mortalit…
The role of mortality awareness in heroic enactment
Personality Disorders
In this chapter we discuss the diagnosis, etiology, and pathology of personality disorders. We begin with a general discussion of the definition, clinical importance, and assessment of personality disorders. We then discuss each of the 10 DSM-IV personality disorders (i.e., paranoid, schizoid, schizotypal, antisocial, borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, avoidant, dependent, and obsessive-compulsive), considering in particular their description,…
