Putting time in perspective: A valid, reliable individual-differences metric
Who's Smoking, Drinking, and Using Drugs? Time Perspective as a Predictor of Substance Use
Two studies examined whether those identified as having a more present time perspective (PTP) are more likely to report using alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. In Study 1, across 2,627 participants from 15 samples, we found that PTP, as assessed by the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, was related to more frequent self-reported alcohol, drug, and tobacco use (Substance Use scale: average r = .34, p <.001). Future time perspective (FTP) was negative…
Present time perspective as a predictor of risky driving
This research introduces a new individual difference variable, time perspective, as an important predictor of risky driving. Across three separate replications, with 2863 participants, present time perspective is significantly correlated with reported risky driving behaviors. Its effect is greater than, and independent of, the negative correlations between future time perspective and risky driving. Additionally, males are more present-oriented an…
Constructing Time After Death: The Transcendental-Future Time Perspective
This article reports on an `extraordinary' time perspective, one that partitions the future into pre- and post-death time frames. Based on data from 1235 individuals, the `transcendental-future' extends from the point of imagined death of the physical body to infinity, yet may influence present behavior. Related to numerous psychological variables, the transcendental-future is a component of, but not synonymous with, many religious beliefs. From …
Psychotherapy of older adolescents using a residential facility
An experimental method using case material is described for treating deeply disturbed older adolescents in a social work setting employing residential facilities. The treatment takes advantage of the relative fluidity in the psychic structure during adolescence. The two major phases of treatment are described and the necessity is shown for shifting the focus from social to psychological—from active intervention to therapeutic neutrality
