‘Abuse of Power Comes as no Surprise’? Sensemaking Around Power‐Abusive Behaviour in Creative Higher Education—A Qualitative Analysis
Power asymmetries shape structures, culture and experiences within higher education, yet remain underexamined in creative disciplines. This study explores how abuse of power is perceived by stakeholders in creative higher education in Germany and Austria—students, equality officers, lecturers and senior professionals—through 16 in‐depth interviews. Using reflexive thematic analysis within a critical realist framework, we identify three core theme…
A Dyadic Score Analysis of How Romantic Partners' Self‐Control Relates to Personal and Relational Well‐Being in Daily Life
Self‐control determines well‐being in individuals, but also plays an important role in close relationships. However, only few studies investigated self‐control in dyads before. Therefore, from a dyadic perspective, our study aims at better understanding how average levels and differences in two relationship partners' self‐control are related to their personal and relational well‐being in daily life. We evaluate three competing accounts, positing …
What makes an intervention dyadic? Introducing the Dyadic meta-framework to Describe Your focAl Dyadic Intervention Components
Background Engaging in health behaviors often occurs within a social context. This recognition has led to a notable growth in intervention approaches designed explicitly to involve a “close other,” often referred to as dyadic interventions. Yet, there has been surprisingly little discussion of what makes an intervention dyadic. Methods To address this gap, we developed the DYADIC meta-framework (Describe Your focAl Dyadic Intervention Components)…
Compendium of dyadic behavior change techniques v2.0: Results from a Delphi study
BACKGROUND: Dyadic interventions involving a close other (eg, romantic partner) have gained increased awareness and shown initial promise, but a shared language and systematic approach to describing their intervention content (ie, dyadic behavior change techniques [DBCTs]) is lacking. PURPOSE: This study aimed to further develop a comprehensive and expert-validated Compendium of DBCTs focused on health behavior change in romantic couples to suppo…
Intersectional analysis of social disparities in type 2 diabetes risk among adults in Germany: Results from a nationwide population-based survey
Type 2 diabetes risk differed between intersectional strata and can to some extent be explained at strata level. The role of intersectional effects was minor and needs to be further investigated. Findings suggest a need for specific preventive measures targeted at large groups with increased diabetes risk, such as men and persons with low educational level
LGBTQIA+ Adolescents’ Perceptions of Gender Tailoring and Portrayal in a Virtual-Reality-Based Alcohol-Prevention Tool: A Qualitative Interview Study and Thematic Analysis
Gender-sensitive interventions in alcohol-prevention that target adolescents often lead to binary tailoring for girls and boys. However, increased societal and legal recognition of sexual and gender minorities as well as research with this age group demand a broader understanding of gender. Therefore, the present study addresses the question of how interventions should be further developed to include sexual and gender diversity by exploring LGBTQ…
Fluctuations in children’s self-regulation and parent-child interaction in everyday life: An ambulatory assessment study
Self-regulation has mostly been studied as an intrapersonal trait which fluctuates across time and impacts everyday behavior related to individual goal pursuit and achievement. Although it is plausible that self-regulation affects not only individuals but also their social network, there is less research on how self-regulation levels and fluctuations are linked to social processes in daily life, such as interactions between children and their par…
The Role of Individual and Dyadic Planning in Couples’ Daily Goal Pursuits
Planning promotes progress toward goal achievement in a wide range of domains. To date, planning has mostly been studied as an individual process. In couples, however, the partner is likely to play an important role in planning. This study tested the effects of individual and dyadic planning on goal progress and goal-related actions. Two samples of couples ( N = 76 and N = 87) completed daily diaries over a period of 28 and 21 days. The results i…
Differentiating Sex and Gender Among Older Men and Women
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to paradigmatically show the development of a gender score that can be used as either an adjustment or a matching variable to separate the effects of gender versus biological sex in a sample of older adults. METHODS: Our sample comprised 1100 participants from the Berlin Aging Study II (52% women, mean [standard deviation] age = 75.6 [3.8] years). The gender score included a multitude of gender-related variables and wa…

A scaled mixed-methods approach to contextualizing health-related measures
A major goal of stigma and health research is to elucidate the link between patients’ lived experiences of stigma and measurable aspects of health (e.g., quality of life and health outcomes). However, “lived experience” and “measurable health outcomes” are often at methodological odds, with the former typically characterized qualitatively and the latter typically characterized using quantified measures. One way to bridge this methodological gap i…
Coping concordance in couples
Romantic partners' daily coping behavior can be viewed as a context for one's own coping. These three studies found that individuals were more likely to cope actively, seek support, or use alcohol, food, and drugs as means of coping when they perceived their partners doing so on a given occasion (Study 1, a cross‐sectional study) and when their partners reported using these strategies (Studies 2 and 3, longitudinal couples studies). These effects…
Identity Concealment and Chronic Illness: A Strategic Choice
The research presented here investigates potential psychological and health consequences of concealing a chronic illness. Data were collected from 2,500 individuals living with multiple sclerosis (MS), as part of an ongoing longitudinal research project. Questions on identity concealment and psychosocial reserve (a broad measure of well‐being) were embedded in a semi‐annual national survey. Responses were linked to each participant's concurrent r…
Action control in dyads: A randomized controlled trial to promote physical activity in everyday life
Interventions facilitating action control via text messages seem to be an effective tool for increasing adherence to physical activity guidelines in everyday life. The comparable effects for the dyadic and individual intervention suggest that automated text messages may be just as effective as personalized messages from the romantic partner. Further investigation is needed to examine the usefulness of a dyadic conceptualizing of action control. (…

Close Relationships and Health in Daily Life: A Review and Empirical Data on Intimacy and Somatic Symptoms
OBJECTIVE: To review research on close relationships and health in daily life, with a focus on physiological functioning and somatic symptoms, and to present data on the within-person effects of physical intimacy on somatic symptoms in committed couples' daily life. The empirical study tested whether prior change in physical intimacy predicted subsequent change in symptoms, over and above their concurrent association. In addition, the study teste…
A Practical Map Labeling Algorithm Utilizing Morphological Image Processing and Force-directed Methods
Automatic placement of text corresponding to graphical objects is an important issue in several applications such as geographical information systems (GIS), cartography, and graph drawing. We focus on realistic data and present a hybrid algorithm for labeling both line and point features. The first step of the method works on the discretized map and uses tools from morphological image processing. It leads to an initial placement of all labels in …
