  • The Brief Lexington Attachment to Pets Scale

    Open Access•Sofya Nartova-Bochaver, С И Резниченко et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Psychology•2025

    Pet attachment is a phenomenon widely studied in various cultures, but little attention has been devoted to whether it varies across cultures. This topic requires a valid invariant instrument to measure pet attachment. Thus, the aim of this study was cross-cultural examination of the Lexington Attachment to Pets Scale (LAPS). A total of 906 respondents from India, Italy, Poland, and Russia took part in the study. The initial version of LAPS has 2…

  • Sources of HIV information and women’s HIV knowledge in Southwest Sumba Indonesia

    Open Access•Angela Kurniadi, Judith A Levy et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2025

    The study's results suggest that more extensive in-depth HIV education is greatly needed to help prevent transmission among women living in small and outlying islands in Indonesia. Wider promotion of HIV information through the media and more intensively through local healthcare providers appears a promising and likely effective means to reach these women

  • Laps Sa

    Open Access•Natalia Albuquerque, Sylvia Corte et al.•ARTICLE•Psychological Reports•2025

    Human biological and cultural evolution is tied to the relationships established with other animals. Attachment is one of the mechanisms established between dogs/cats and humans and allows the generation of affective bonds and close proximity. Many instruments have been used to study attachment of people to their dogs/cats, such as the Lexington Attachment to Pets Scale (LAPS). Our aim was adapting LAPS for South American populations (Brazil, Arg…

  • Economic stressors, alcohol use, and health-related quality of life in middle-aged adults

    Open Access•Kristin L Moilanen, J A Richman et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Applied Developmental…•2025•Referências: 111

    1359 adults ages 40-61 (65.0% women). High economic stress was associated with poor physical and mental HRQoL, and high community disadvantage was linked to poor physical HRQoL only. High alcohol use predicted high physical and mental HRQoL, and low misuse predicted high mental HRQoL only. There was no evidence of mediation, and gender, age, and race moderated a subset of model paths. The discussion considers future directions for research and im…

  • Profiles of economic and non-economic chronic stressors at midlife

    Open Access•Kristin L Moilanen, Kathleen M Rospenda et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Applied Developmental…•2025•Referências: 80

    1541 adults ages 40-61 years (35.5 % male, 48.7 % white) responded to questionnaires. Latent profile analyses revealed five stressor profiles, specifically Low Stressors (46.3 % of the sample), Mixed Stressors (22.7 %), High Sicktime Stressors (14.7 %), High Unemployment Stressors (8.5 %), and High Stressors (7.9 %). Respectively, the Low and High Stressor profiles were the most and least advantaged in terms of demographic risk factors, social su…

    Open Access•Timothy P Johnson, H Silber et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science Quarterly•2024•Citada por: 1•Referências: 23

    Objective: Anecdotal evidence suggests that the term “pollster” has, in recent years, become stigmatized in the United States. We explore this and a subsequent question as to whether negative perceptions of pollsters affect people's perceived trustworthiness of survey findings. Methods: Survey experiments were administered to national probability‐based samples after the 2016 and 2020 elections. Results: In each study, pollsters obtained significa…

  • Effects of chronic workplace harassment on mental health and alcohol misuse

    Open Access•Kathleen M Rospenda, J A Richman et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2023

    Background Research on the impacts of exposure to workplace harassment (WH) is largely cross-sectional, and existing prospective studies generally are between two and five years of follow-up, with the longest US study being 10 years. However, the effects of exposure to WH may persist longer, particularly if exposure has been chronic. This study fills this gap by examining effects of prior exposure to chronic sexual and generalized WH on psycholog…

  • Survey participation as a function of democratic engagement, trust in institutions, and perceptions of surveys

    Open Access•H Silber, Patricia Moy et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science Quarterly•2022•Citada por: 4•Referências: 54

    Objective With response rates of large‐scale surveys having decreased significantly over the years and rebounds seeming unlikely, many studies now examine how response rates vary with methodological design and incentives. This investigation delves into how individual‐level factors shape survey participation. Specifically, we examine the influence of individuals’ democratic engagement and their trust in institutions on intent to participate in sur…

  • Individual-Level Cultural Factors and Use of Survey Response Styles Among Latino Survey Respondents

    Open Access•R E Davis, Sung-Hee Lee et al.•ARTICLE•Hispanic Journal of Behavioral…•2022•Referências: 54

    Acquiescent (ARS) and extreme response styles (ERS) can have detrimental effects on survey data and, for unknown reasons, are more frequently used by Latino than non-Latino white respondents. This exploratory study examined the influence of culture on these response styles by investigating their associations with individual-level cultural factors and ARS and ERS among 1,296 Mexican American, Puerto Rican, and Cuban American telephone survey respo…

  • Covid-19 and the academy

    Open Access•Timothy P Johnson, Megan Feeney et al.•ARTICLE•Humanities and Social Sciences…•2021

    Much of the available evidence regarding COVID-19 effects on the scientific community in the U.S. is anecdotal and non-representative. We report findings from a based survey of university-based biologists, biochemists, and civil and environmental engineers regarding negative and positive COVID-19 impacts, respondent contributions to addressing the pandemic, and their opinions regarding COVID-19 research policies. The most common negative impact w…

  • The influence of financial practice in developing mathematical probability

    Open Access•Timothy P Johnson, Thomas Cary Johnson et al.•ARTICLE•Synthese•2021•Referências: 75

    The purpose of this paper is to discuss the role of financial practice in the development of mathematics as applied in human judgement. The basis of the paper is in historical research from the 1990s that argues that the monetisation of western commerce, which abstracted value into quantified price, was synthesised with scholastic analysis resulting in a “mathematical mechanistic world picture” that led to the widespread use of mathematics in sci…

  • The Influence of Item Characteristics on Acquiescence among Latino Survey Respondents

    Open Access•Rachel E Davis, Sung-Hee Lee et al.•ARTICLE•CAM•2020•Citada por: 1•Referências: 41

    Acquiescence is often defined as the systematic selection of agreeable ("strongly agree") or affirmative ("yes") responses to survey items, regardless of item content or directionality. This definition implies that acquiescence is immune to item characteristics; however, the influence of item characteristics on acquiescence remains largely unexplored. We examined the influence of eight item characteristics on acquiescence in a telephone survey of…

  • Measuring the Elusive Construct of Personalismo Among Mexican American, Puerto Rican, and Cuban American Adults

    Open Access•Rachel E Davis, Sung-Hee Lee et al.•ARTICLE•Hispanic Journal of Behavioral…•2019•Citada por: 4•Referências: 16

    Personalismo may have a broad influence on the well-being of U.S. Latinos by shaping social networks and, in turn, access to information and resources. However, research on personalismo is currently constrained by the lack of a psychometrically sound measure of this cultural construct. This research used a mixed-methods approach to develop a personalismo scale across three studies: a cognitive interviewing study with Mexican American adults ( n =…

  • Why Do Latino Survey Respondents Acquiesce? Respondent and Interviewer Characteristics as Determinants of Cultural Patterns of Acquiescence Among Latino Survey Respondents

    Open Access•Rachel E Davis, Timothy P Johnson et al.•ARTICLE•Cross-Cultural Research•2018•Citada por: 4•Referências: 62

    Research indicates that Latino survey respondents are more likely to acquiesce than non-Latino European Americans (EAs), thereby decreasing the potential for measurement invariance across cultural groups. To better understand what drives this culturally patterned response style, we examined the influence of respondent and interviewer characteristics on acquiescence. Data were obtained from a telephone survey of 400 Mexican American, Puerto Rican,…

  • Effects of Rosa’s Law on Intellectual-Disability Reporting

    Open Access•Marina Stavrakantonaki, Timothy P Johnson•ARTICLE•Public Opinion Quarterly•2018•Referências: 9

    This study examines the effects of legislatively mandated changes in terminology for National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) questions on proxy and self-reports of an important condition. Specifically, we examine changes from the use of the term “mental retardation” to “intellectual disability” that were mandated by what is now known as “Rosa’s Law,” an act signed by President Obama in October 2010. Our analyses focus on changes in national preva…

    Survey research is a common tool for assessing public opinions, perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors for analyses in many social science disciplines. Yet there is little knowledge regarding how specific elements of survey research methodology are applied in practice in public administration. This article examines five mainstream public administration journals over an eight‐year period regarding current methodological practice, organized around t…

  • The Impact of Question and Respondent Characteristics on Comprehension and Mapping Difficulties

    Allyson Holbrook, Y I Cho et al.•ARTICLE•Public Opinion Quarterly•2006•Citada por: 34•Referências: 8

    Behavior coding is one technique researchers use to detect problems in survey questions, but it has been primarily explored as a practical tool rather than a source of insight into the theoretical understanding of the cognitive processes by which respondents answer survey questions. The latter is the focus of the current investigation. Using data from a large study in which face-to-face interviews were taped and extensive behavior coding was done…

  • What is the relation between cultural orientation and socially desirable responding

    Ashok K Lalwani, Sharon Shavitt et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Personality and Social…•2006•Citada por: 34•Referências: 62

    Research suggests that collectivists are more likely to engage in deception and socially desirable responding to maintain good relationships with others. In contrast, individualists are portrayed as candid and sincere because individualism encourages people to "be yourself." The authors propose that people with both types of cultural orientations or backgrounds engage in desirable responding, albeit in distinct ways. In Study 1, respondents from …

  • Response Heaping in Interviewer-Administered Surveys

    Allyson L Holbrook, Smriti Anand et al.•ARTICLE•Public Opinion Quarterly•2014•Citada por: 12•Referências: 5

    Response heaping (also referred to as rounding or digit preference) occurs when respondents show a preference for rounded numbers (often those divisible by five or 10). Conventional wisdom is that this is the result of taking cognitive shortcuts to make question answering easier, and as such, that it may be a form of survey satisficing. In four studies, we test this conventional wisdom for the first time by exploring whether response heaping occu…

  • Delaying Justice

    Open Access•Valerie J Hoekstra, Valerie Hoekstra et al.•ARTICLE•Political Research Quarterly•2003•Citada por: 7•Referências: 16

    Some of the Supreme Court’s most famous cases—from Roe v. Wade (1973) to Brown v. Board of Education (1954)—have been decided only after being held over and argued a second time. While few cases take this path, scholars have offered no systematic account for why the Court would ever take such a tack. We develop hypotheses about when reargument is most likely to occur, and test them on all formally decided cases between 1946 and 1985. More specifi…

  • A Fairly Common Ambiguity

    James G Hougland, Timothy P Johnson et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Focus•1992•Referências: 7

    Although public assessments of the performance of elected officials are often measured by job rating questions using easily understood language, answers to such questions can be difficult to interpret because of their use of generic words containing multiple meanings. The word “fair,” which is often presented as a response intended to signify mild disapproval, is particularly problematic in this regard. Because of this problem, we have used a sta…

  • Psychometric Evaluation of the Lexington Attachment to Pets Scale (Laps)

    Timothy P Johnson, Thomas F Garrity et al.•ARTICLE•Anthrozoös•1992•Citada por: 104•Referências: 26

    This paper reports on the development and psychometric evaluation of a scale for assessing emotional attachment of individuals to their pets. Previous attachment scales have suffered variously from low internal consistency and reliance on small or nonrepresentative samples for their development. Telephone interviews of a random, representative sample of 412 pet owners in Fayette County, Kentucky, were completed in September 1990; a 69.5 percent r…

    Timothy P Johnson, Jennifer Parsons et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Focus•1993•Citada por: 2•Referências: 2

    Les AA. estiment que les questionnaires de petite dimension sont des instruments d'enquete moins efficaces que les formulaires standards. Lire et completer un petit document n'offre pas l'avantage de paraitre, aux yeux des enquetes, comme une tâche plus modeste. En revanche l'utilisation de grands formulaires peut donner l'impression de participer a une recherche importante. Ceci peut inciter les individus a repondre aux questions des enqueteurs.…

  • The Computer Presentation of Musical Research

    Open Access•Timothy P Johnson, Thomas Cary Johnson et al.•ARTICLE•Music Theory Online•1995

    The traditional format for the presentation of musical research, the journal article, makes referencing musical passages less direct than ideally desired. CD-ROM technology provides a means for the presentation of written comments and analytical sketches simultaneously with a recorded performance of the corresponding music. This article describes a computer project that uses CD-ROM technology to bridge the gap between analytical or theoretical co…

    J A Richman, Kathleen M Rospenda et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Public Health•1999•Citada por: 25•Referências: 21

    OBJECTIVES: This study hypothesized that interpersonal workplace stressors involving sexual harassment and generalized workplace abuse are highly prevalent and significantly linked with mental health outcomes including symptomatic distress, the use and abuse of alcohol, and other drug use. METHODS: Employees in 4 university occupational groups (faculty, student, clerical, and service workers; n = 2492) were surveyed by means of a mailed self-repo…

  • Examining the Effectiveness of a Community‐Based Self‐Help Program to Increase Women's Readiness for Smoking Cessation

    Open Access•Lindsey Turner, Lindsey R Turner et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Community…•2001•Citada por: 1•Referências: 42

    This study investigated the effectiveness of two components of a smoking cessation intervention: a reading manual and a series of televised programs. Female smokers in the Chicago metropolitan area with a high school education or less were interviewed at 4 different times: baseline, immediate postintervention, and 6 and 12 months. We examined the effects of several baseline measures (race, age, number of cigarettes smoked, and stage of readiness …

  • Changes in Self-Efficacy and Readiness for Smoking Cessation among Women with High School or Less Education

    R B Warnecke, Osvaldo F Morera et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Health and Social…•2001•Citada por: 4

    The most common theory of smoking cessation postulates that readiness to quit begins with changes in attitudes that move the smoker toward behavioral change and eventual cessation. However, trends in smoking indicate that many who currently smoke are not ready to quit. Hence, strategies that both enhance readiness and focus on quitting are likely to be most effective. We hypothesize that an intervention addressed to motivating behavior change wil…

  • Prediction of Depressive Distress in a Community Sample of Women

    Objectives. This study compared factors known or hypothesized to influence depressive symptomatology in a community sample of lesbians and heterosexual women. Methods. Data were collected in a multisite survey of lesbians' physical and mental health. Results. Findings confirmed earlier reports suggesting that traumatic life events such as physical and sexual abuse, and individual traits and coping styles are risk factors for depressive distress. …

  • Improving the self reporting of tobacco use

    David W Cowling, Timothy P Johnson et al.•ARTICLE•Tobacco Control•2003

    The tobacco specific survey introduction is causing some smokers to deny their tobacco use. The data suggest that these smokers tend to be women that smoked occasionally. A desire by the participants to minimise their personal time costs or a growing social disapproval of tobacco use in the USA may be contributing to the creation of previously undetected survey artefacts in the measurement of tobacco related behaviours
