Strengthening connections: A randomized controlled trial examining the impact of a supervisor support intervention on loneliness and military couple relationships
Social connection has been declining across the general population (i.e., the "loneliness epidemic"), though some groups, including military personnel, are experiencing particularly high rates. This has led to calls for a multilevel national strategy, including workplaces, to build social connection (U.S. Surgeon General, 2023). To answer this call, the present study draws on the wise intervention approach (Walton, 2014), multidimensional model o…
The daily association between affect and alcohol use: A meta-analysis of individual participant data
Influential psychological theories hypothesize that people consume alcohol in response to the experience of both negative and positive emotions. Despite two decades of daily diary and ecological momentary assessment research, it remains unclear whether people consume more alcohol on days they experience higher negative and positive affect in everyday life. In this preregistered meta-analysis, we synthesized the evidence for these daily associatio…
Do Loneliness and Social Isolation Predict Mortality Because of Hazardous Drinking
Introduction: Subjective feelings of loneliness and objective social isolation have been consistently connected with ill-health and mortality, though little work has empirically examined the mechanisms explaining the adverse effects. This study examines whether alcohol consumption explains the connection of loneliness and social isolation on mortality in different age and gender groups. Methods: The sample comprised a representative 1994 Finnish …
Sometimes less is more: Directed coping with interpersonal stressors at work
Within the coping literature, researchers have long been interested in identifying ways in which individuals can improve their coping efforts, making them more effective and thereby reducing the harmful effects of stressful encounters. Although Lazarus and Folkman's transactional model has greatly advanced understanding of the coping process, there continues to be methodological and conceptual challenges that have hindered understanding of the me…
The objective versus the perceived environment: What matters for bicycling
Friends and family: A cross-cultural investigation of social support and subjective well-being among college students
Despite the growing number of cross-cultural studies focusing on well-being, little is known about social support outside of western civilization, particularly among people in Middle Eastern cultures. The current study examined the relationships between perceived social support and components of subjective well-being (i.e. positive and negative affect, satisfaction with life) among college students in Iran, Jordan, and the United States. Perceive…
A diary study of implicit self-esteem, interpersonal interactions and alcohol consumption in college students
A Daily Process Approach to Individual Differences in Stress‐Related Alcohol Use
In our research we have used a variety of daily designs (paper‐and‐pencil or Internet‐based daily diaries, experience sampling via palmtop computers) to examine how individual differences in coping styles, alcohol‐outcome expectancies, and drinking motives predict stress‐related and negative affect‐related alcohol use. Our work has furthered research in this area in two ways. First, we have examined how these risk factors are associated with with…
The how and why of disagreement among perceivers: An exploration of person models
A social relations variance partitioning of dyadic behavior
A social relations variance partitioning of dyadic behavior
The authors investigate the relative importance of actor and interaction partner as determinants of dyadic behavior. Using the social relations model (D. A. Kenny, 1994a; D. A. Kenny & L. La Voie, 1984), the authors estimate the variance attributable to each determinant plus the reciprocity of behavioral responses from 7 studies. The authors find evidence for moderate behavioral consistency in a person's behavior across interaction partners, litt…
Daily interpersonal experiences, context, and alcohol consumption: Crying in your beer and toasting good times
The authors explored a multidimensional view of drinking, whereby social and solitary drinking represent distinct behaviors associated with positive and negative experiences, respectively. Using daily diary methodology and multilevel analytic strategy, the authors examined, over 30 days, the within-person association of negative and positive experiences and alcohol consumption in different contexts and focused on interpersonal experiences. On day…
The Female Positivity Effect in the Perception of Others
Do we know how much people like one another
Metaperception is a person's perception about a second person's perception of a third person. The purpose of this article is to examine the accuracy of metaperceptions of liking. A related question concerns whether the heuristics of balance, reciprocity, and agreement are used by perceivers when forming such judgments. The authors present analyses from 5 diverse research studies that used an adaptation of the social relations model for triads (C.…
