This study investigated the reactions of undergraduate students to a high-fidelity behavioral simulation assessment for teamwork skills and explored some of the factors behind those reactions. 168 undergraduate students completed a …
Elevated Familial Cardiovascular Burden Among Adolescents With Familial Bipolar Disorder
Background: Bipolar disorder (BD) is one of the most heritable medical conditions, and certain phenotypic characteristics are especially familial in BD. BD is also strongly associated with elevated and premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. Thus, far, little is known regarding the familiality of cardiovascular risk in BD. We therefore examined the extent of CVD-related conditions among relatives of: adolescents with BD wi…
Normal Cerebral Oxygen Consumption Despite Elevated Cerebral Blood Flow in Adolescents With Bipolar Disorder: Putative Neuroimaging Evidence of Anomalous Energy Metabolism
Background: Regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) is reportedly altered in both adolescents and adults with bipolar disorder (BD). Whether these CBF differences are part of an overall imbalance in cerebral energy homeostasis remains unknown. Therefore, we examined global cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen consumption (CMRO 2 ) as a physiological index of brain metabolism in adolescents with and without BD. Methods: One hundred and fifteen adolescents…

Proactive Coping, Positive Affect, and Well-Being: Testing for Mediation Using Path Analysis
Traditionally, psychological research has focused on negative states, their determinants, and consequences. Theoretical conceptions of coping focus on strategies used to diminish distress. This approach is derived from the perspective that coping is mainly reactive, a strategy used once stress has been experienced. In contrast, proactive coping involves goal setting, having efficacious beliefs, and is associated with resources for self-improvemen…
Time affluence, material affluence and well‐being among Turkish managers
Purpose Based on US college student and adult samples, Kasser and Sheldon suggested that time affluence (TA) may be a more significant predictor of subjective well‐being than material affluence (MA). This paper aims to replicate and extend their findings to an employed sample from another country and culture. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 877 men and women managers and professionals working in the manufacturing sector in Tu…
Work Motivations, Satisfactions, and Health Among Managers: Passion Versus Addiction
Individuals in managerial and professional jobs are now working longer hours for a variety of reasons.

Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 286 managerial a…
