The Price of Materialism
Materialism, characterized by an excessive focus on material possessions, harms individuals’ well-being. Beyond personal downsides, this research uncovers a novel interpersonal consequence: people exhibit reduced empathy toward materialistic individuals. In Studies 1a–1c (n = 875), materialistic individuals received less empathy. Study 2 (n = 396) showed that target materialism led to lower expected reciprocity, which was linked to reduced empath…
Relationship between mindfulness and positive affect of Chinese older adults
We examined the mediating role of optimism in the relationship between mindfulness and positive affect with a sample of 277 Chinese people aged between 51 and 65 years who completed the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale, the Life Orientation Test-Revised, and the Positive Affect subscale of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule. Pearson correlation analysis results showed a significant positive relationship between mindfulness, optimism, and …

Results showed that mindfulness was negatively correlated with perceived stress and suicidal ideation, whereas pe…
Explicit self-esteem, loneliness, and pathological Internet use among Chinese adolescents
We explored the mediating role of loneliness in the relationship between explicit self-esteem and pathological Internet use in a sample of 624 Chinese adolescents. The participants were administered a series of measures, including the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, UCLA Loneliness Scale (Version 3), and Young Internet Addiction Test. The results suggested that greater pathological Internet use was associated with lower explicit self-esteem and grea…

The results indicated that adolescent girls had lower …
