Public Policy Implications from Research on Well-Being in Daily Life
Individual well-being often plays a role in shaping public policy, yet much of the evidence that informs decisions and policy is based on cross-sectional and experimental research that fails to account for the dynamic nature of well-being. Research that utilizes Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) and daily diary methods highlights how within-person variation in well-being can yield insights distinct from between-person analyses and laboratory-…
Evangelical Christians score higher than non-evangelicals on public, but not on private, commitments to morality
Are distinctly elevated, external, public commitments and displays of morality accompanied by distinctly elevated internal, private commitments to morality? A nationally representative U.S. dataset was used to help answer this question. Evangelical Christians (N = 411) scored higher than non-evangelicals (N = 942) on a measure of commitment to external, public displays of morality. However, the group differences in scores on a measure of internal…
Unlocking the bitter potential of nostalgia
Nostalgia is a sentimental longing for the past that is experienced across people from various cultures and across the lifespan. Though nostalgia has typically been conceptualized as a mixed emotion, prior research has primarily focused on positive effects. We hypothesized that nostalgia can additionally have certain negative effects. In particular, nostalgia shares certain features with envy, a negative emotion defined as a resentful longing for…
Authenticity, meaning in life, and life satisfaction
OBJECTIVE: The present study sought to examine: (1) how the components of authenticity (i.e., authentic living, self-alienation, accepting external influence) relate to one another at between- and within-person levels of analysis; (2) how the authenticity facets relate to meaning in life (i.e., purpose, comprehension, mattering) and life satisfaction at these levels of analysis; and (3) whether these relationships persist when controlling for aff…
Dimensionality, Item Response Theory, Effect Size Attenuation, and Test Bias Analyses of the Self-Importance of Moral Identity Scale (Simis)
The extent to which morality and being a moral person are important to one’s identity is most commonly assessed using Aquino and Reed’s (2002 Aquino, K., & Reed, A. II. (2002). The self-importance of moral identity. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 83, 1423–1440.[Crossref], [PubMed], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) Self-Importance of Moral Identity Scale (SIMIS). This study provided detailed psychometric examinations of the st…
