How growing up without siblings affects the adult brain and behaviour in the CHIMGEN cohort
Neural specialization with generalizable representations underlies children’s cognitive development of attention
From childhood to adulthood, the human brain develops highly specialized yet interacting neural modules that give rise to nuanced attention and other cognitive functions. Each module can specialize over development to support specific functions, yet also coexist in multiple neurobiological modes to support distinct processes. Advances in cognitive neuroscience have conceptualized human attention as a set of cognitive processes anchored in highly …

The Effects of Job Insecurity on Employees' Financial Well-Being and Work Satisfaction Among Chinese Pink-Collar Workers
This article examines the effects of job insecurity on employees' financial well-being and work satisfaction. Based on a literature review on financial well-being, we proposed that financial well-being consists of two categories: personal financial well-being and family financial well-being. We developed a theoretical model that links job insecurity to employees' personal and family financial well-being, and then to employees' work satisfaction. …
Maslow and the Motivation Hierarchy
For each of the 5 needs in Maslow’s motivational hierarchy (physiological, safety-security, belongingness, esteem, and self-actualization), operational definitions were developed from Maslow’s theory of motivation. New measures were created based on the operational definitions (1) to assess the satisfaction of each need, (2) to assess their expected correlations (a) with each of the other needs and (b) with four social and personality measures (i…
Making sense by making sentient
People commonly anthropomorphize nonhuman agents, imbuing everything from computers to pets to gods with humanlike capacities and mental experiences. Although widely observed, the determinants of anthropomorphism are poorly understood and rarely investigated. We propose that people anthropomorphize, in part, to satisfy effectance motivation-the basic and chronic motivation to attain mastery of one's environment. Five studies demonstrated that inc…
