Self-critical perfectionism and daily affect
This study of university students (64 men and 99 women) examined both dispositional and situational influences of self-critical (SC) perfectionism on stress and coping, which explain its association with high negative affect and low positive affect. Participants completed questionnaires at the end of the day for 7 consecutive days. Structural equation modeling indicated that the relation between SC perfectionism and daily affect could be explaine…
Psychological distress and the frequency of perfectionistic thinking
Self-Criticism and Dependency in Relation to Anger
In a sample of 233 university students, Self-critical and Dependent personality styles were each associated with indices of anger
Components of Perfectionism and Procrastination in College Students
The present research examined the relations between individual differences in perfectionism and procrastinatory behavior in college students. A sample of 131 students (56 males, 75 females) completed measures of self-oriented, other-oriented, and socially prescribed perfectionism, as well as measures of academic procrastination and general procrastination. Subjects also completed ratings of factors related to procrastination (i.e., fear of failur…
Depression and Causal Attributions for Unexpected Stressful Events
Although there is general evidence of an association between attribution and depression, research examining causal attributions for life events has provided little consistent evidence for the attributional model of depression. The present study tested whether the controllability and expectedness of the event moderate the association between attribution dimensions and depression. A sample of 242 students completed measures of depression and rated …
Test anxiety and the contents of consciousness
Depression and components of attributional complexity
Influence of Social-Desirability Responding on the Sarason Test Anxiety Scale
The relationship between the concepts of social desirability and test anxiety as assessed by Sarason's Test Anxiety Scale was examined. Sarason's scale and the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale were administered to 137 women and 62 men under nonanonymous evaluative conditions. Although high social-desirability respondents reported lower levels of test anxiety, the correlation was significant for women only. It was concluded that the Test A…
Affect Intensity and Self-Consciousness in College Students
The present study examined the correlations of scores on the Affect Intensity Measure and the Self-consciousness Scale. Positive correlations between dispositional levels of affect intensity, private self-consciousness, and public self-consciousness were obtained for 81 undergraduate women but not for the 46 men. The results are interpreted as further evidence of the validity of the Affect Intensity Measure
Affect intensity and the appraisal of emotion
Relationship of the Locus of Control Construct to the Self-Control of Heart Rate
The present study tested the hypothesis that internal as compared with external locus of control Ss would show reliably greater self-control of heart rate (HR) slowing, as well as speeding, when given a longer period of training than was used in previous studies. Thirty-eight male volunteer Ss (19 internals and 19 externals) were instructed to control HR and received continuous visual feedback of cardiac rate during three series of trials, follow…
Within-Subject Control Designs and Voluntary Bidirectional Control of Cardiac Rate
The purpose of this study was to compare two methods of analyzing the effects of exteroceptive feedback training on the voluntary bidirectional control of human cardiac rate with the use of a within-subject control design. In this design heart rate (HR) during an experimental period (increase or decrease) is compared with that recorded during some other control period, generally a baseline "rest" period. Ten male undergraduates were instructed to…
