An Exploratory Study of the Effects of Frequency and Duration of Messaging on Impression Development in Computer-Mediated Communication
This experimental study indicates that computer-mediated communication (CMC) is a viable mode of social-emotion-oriented communication. In this study, the effects of frequency and duration of messaging on impression development in CMC were investigated. Undergraduate participants were randomly assigned to each of the four experimental groups. For a period of 2 weeks, participants monitored discussion lists that differed in relation to the frequen…
Concurrent Validity and Test-Retest Reliability of the Information Processing Styles
To investigate concurrent validity and test-retest reliability of the Information Processing Styles, 62 students majoring in social sciences evaluated the accuracy of the checklist in describing their dominant types. Each student had a friend who read the descriptions of the dominant type(s) of the student and rated their perceived accuracy of that categorization. Analyses indicated the inventory is reliable and valid
Attitudes of registered nurses toward euthanasia
We sought to identify variables that contribute to euthanasia attitude and behavior, including demographics, death fears, experience with death, attitudes toward patient autonomy, and level of moral development. Subjects were 137 registered nurses from the southeastern United States representing 13 clinical nursing areas. Principal components analysis identified four factors that together explained 62.9% of total variance. These factors were beli…
Mmpi Correlates of College Women Who Reported Experiencing Child/Adult Sexual Contact with Father, Stepfather, or with other Persons
MMPI responses were obtained from three groups of college women (n = 171): those reporting child/adult sexual contact with father/stepfather, with other persons, and a control group reporting no such experience. A comparison of group mean MMPI validity and clinical scales showed the father/stepfather group to have several subscales elevated to clinically significant levels. None of the subscales for the other two groups were so elevated
Contributions to the History of Psychology
This article presents information about Dr. George A. Kelly's work in attitude measurement while he was at Fort Hays Kansas State College (1931–1943). The use of bipolar scales to measure the attitudes and the progress of clients supports Kelly's Dichotomy Corollary, in addition to providing external validity for the use of the Semantic Differential
Selected MMPI Items That Identified College Women Who Reported Early Sexual Abuse
This study examined whether MMPI items could be used to discriminate between 41 college women who reported having experienced sexual abuse as children and 73 who did not report childhood sexual abuse. A set of 63 items were identified which correctly classified 84% of the subjects
Therapeutic Conditions and Physician—Patient Interactions
Types of Alcoholics and their Relationship to Traffic Violations
Groups of alcoholics, categorized by their responses to the 16-PF questionnaire, had differing histories of traffic violations
Conditioned Reinforcement Based on Shock Termination
RPM Correlates of Attitudes toward Delinquency
The co-operative and submissive roles of the RPM were related to “unfavorable” attitudes of 24 staff persons toward delinquency both before and after contact with delinquents. After contact with delinquents, the permissive role was related to “favorable” attitudes toward delinquency. Such findings indicate that the RPM might be successfully used in the screening of prospective employees who are to work with delinquents
