State interest and situation perception in the museum
Students’ interests are important for allocating attentional resources and knowledge acquisition, making the increase of interest a major instructional goal. However, the psychological experiences underlying actual state interest in learning situations are less understood. Addressing this gap, our goal was to examine how students’ state investigative interest and their subjective perceptions of a learning situation unfolded and interrelated throu…
Trajectories of students’ momentary interest in evolution during a museum guided tour
A person’s stable and momentary interest have a positive influence on learning. For understanding global challenges related to e.g. biodiversity loss, interest in and knowledge about evolution is of great importance. Museums can make an important contribution to learning about evolution in terms of interest. So far, there is a lack of studies on how exactly museum visits affect students’ interest. Against this background, the present study invest…
The predictive validity of vocational interests for life outcomes across adulthood
(e.g., civic engagement, cultural participation) outcomes assessed 11 years later. Across adulthood (ages 25-67 at interest assessment), interests significantly contributed to all 12 outcomes, demonstrating that interests are predictive of life outcomes after adolescence and young adulthood. Age-moderation analyses using local structural equation modeling and age-group-specific analyses indicated that many interest-outcome links remained stable t…
Beyond age and generations
Age, cohort, and period effects are three ways to explain personality trait change over time. While past research mostly focused on age differences, showing relatively consistent patterns, evidence for cohort differences is more mixed, and period differences have hardly been examined. However, age, period, and cohort are exactly collinear (age = period-cohort), such that estimates are likely confounded and always hinge on so-called identification…
Why does the trait-state relation in vocational interests differ from that in personality? Exploring interest variability in daily life
Disentangling stable and malleable components—A latent state-trait analysis of vocational interests
Individual differences in contingencies between situation characteristics and personality states
Contingencies between situational variables and psychological states have been proposed as key individual difference variables by many theoretical approaches to personality. Despite their relevance, the basic properties, nomological correlates, and factor structure of individual differences in contingencies have not been examined so far. We address these fundamental questions in five studies with overall N = 952 participants and N = 32,052 unique…
