Conspiracy as a Defense
This study examined whether individual differences in defensive functioning help explain why people endorse conspiracy beliefs. A community sample of 516 adults completed measures of conspiracist ideation, contemporary conspiracy beliefs (CCB), and defense styles. Results showed that higher endorsement of conspiracy beliefs was associated with a more immature style, whereas the mature style showed no association, and the neurotic style yielded sm…

Suicide on Italian Instagram
Instagram is the social network with the largest number of adolescent users in Italy; it is also the social network with the largest number of suicide‐related posts. Suicide is the third leading cause of death in Italy in the 15–19 age group.

Hikikomori Risk Inventory (HRI-24)
BACKGROUND: Hikikomori, a clinical condition widely studied in Japan, is receiving increasing attention in Western Countries. AIMS: This study aimed to create a new instrument for evaluating the risk of Hikikomori in both Eastern and Western countries. METHODS: = 392), we analyzed the psychometric properties of the Hikikomori Risk Inventory (HRI-24). RESULTS: We found support, in both the Italian and Japanese samples, for the good and stable fact…
Studyholism and Study Engagement in Adolescence
Studyholism (or obsession toward study) is a new potential clinical condition that, in contrast with Study Engagement, is associated with negative outcomes. However, previous studies showed that both Studyholism and Study Engagement predict social impairment due to study. Therefore, we analyzed the role of social anxiety and interpretation bias as predictors of Studyholism and Study Engagement in 541 adolescents ( M age = 16.30 ± 1.59; 66% girls)…
Heavy Study Investment
Defense mechanisms are unconscious processes that protect a person from excessive anxiety. They are part of everyday functioning, and mature defenses are associated with positive outcomes. However, the excessive use of defenses or the use of immature defenses is associated with psychopathology. The present study aims to analyze the defense mechanisms that characterize two types of heavy study investment: Studyholism and Study Engagement. We perfo…
How Stable, Really? Traditional and Nonlinear Dynamics Approaches to Studying Temporal Fluctuations in Personality and Affect
A pair of quantitative case studies is presented to demonstrate how different approaches to quantifying temporal variability in ratings of traits and affect can provide rich information for personality researchers. Data are presented and analyzed from two college students who completed an Ecological Momentary Assessment protocol sampling ratings of affect and traits up to 24 times daily for one week. Both classical and nonlinear data analytic tec…
Subjective Response Measurement to Prosthesis or Device Use
Many subjects with somatic pathologies or traumas in their recent anamnesis tend to experience symptoms and changes to their daily life parameters after technically successful treatment. Hence, this study aims to validate an investigation tool inspired by the prosthetic-bionic paradigm-namely, the PBP-Q-which allows for the evaluation of variation in questions relating to identity, psychosociality, and psychopathology in relation to the use of a …
At the core of cyberaggression
In this study, prototypicality of the aggressor was tested as a group‐level factor predicting social media users’ active participation in cyberaggression. Participants were exposed to a fictitious conversation, in which either a prototypical versus non‐prototypical user posted an aggressive comment as a reply to a provocative comment. In line with self‐categorization theory, we hypothesized that bystander participants would post an aggressive com…
Work-Family Conflict Scale
In literature, there are many instruments for measuring the work-family conflict (W-F-C). The Work-Family Conflict Scale (WFCS) is one of the most used tools. This study aimed to evaluate its psychometric properties on a sample of 684 Italian workers (42.1% males, 57.9% females, mean age = 45.51 ± 10.91). We also evaluated if there were some demographic differences in the W-F-C, with relation to gender, the presence of children, and the kind of j…

Is Graphology Useful in Assessing Major Depression
This study aimed to develop a handwriting analysis protocol for assessing severe major depressive disorder, in order to evaluate whether graphological analysis could be considered an objective tool and hence if it could be useful for clinicians in their early diagnosis. We modified and improved the methodology described by Lorusso et al. by proposing different graphic indexes based both on the literature and on the observation of a preliminary sa…
