  • The Transgressor's Response to Denied Forgiveness

    Open AccessDavid J Jennings, Everett L Worthington et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychology and Theology2016

    The study of forgiveness has flourished in recent years, but little is known about how transgressors respond when their request for forgiveness is denied. Two studies examined how transgressors react to a denied request for forgiveness in romantic relationships. Across both studies, when participants were denied forgiveness or delayed in receiving a forgiving response, they exhibited differences in the degree to which they held unforgiving motiva…

  • Negative internal causal attributions of a specific offense and forgiveness

    Open AccessJoshua N Hook, Marciana J Ramos et al.ARTICLEPersonal Relationships2015Citada por: 1Referências: 5

    Causal attributions are important social‐cognitive predictors of forgiveness. This article presents the Transgression Attribution Questionnaire ( TAQ ), a measure of one's negative internal causal attributions of a specific offense. In 4 studies, scores on the TAQ showed initial evidence of estimated internal consistency, temporal stability, and construct validity. Negative internal attributions for the cause of a transgression predicted lower le…

  • Forgiveness of in-group offenders in Christian congregations

    Chelsea L Greer, Everett L Worthington et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Religion and…2014

    Religious communities, like other communities, are ripe for interpersonal offenses. We examined the degree to which group identification predicted forgiveness of an in-group offender. We examined the effects of a victim’s perception of his or her religious group identification as a state-specific personal variable on forgiveness by integrating Social Identity Theory into a model of Relational Spirituality (Davis, Hook, & Worthington, 2008) to hel…

  • Relational Humility

    Don E Davis, Sohna Musaad et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality Assessment2011

    The study of humility has progressed slowly due to measurement problems. We describe a model of relational humility that conceptualizes humility as a personality judgment. In this set of 5 studies, we developed the 16-item Relational Humility Scale (RHS) and offered initial evidence for the theoretical model. In Study 1 (N = 300), we developed the RHS and its subscales--Global Humility, Superiority, and Accurate View of Self. In Study 2, we confi…

  • Relational Spirituality and Forgiveness

    Open AccessDon E Davis, Joshua N Hook et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychology and Theology2010

    Research on spirituality and forgiveness has begun to examine the types of dynamic, spiritual experiences that can promote forgiveness. Specifically, we explore how victims may see an offender’s humility in relationship with the Sacred, and how this appraisal affects forgiveness. We also describe the development of the Spiritual Humility Scale (SHS). In Study 1 ( N = 300; F = 166, M = 134), the SHS had a single-factor structure using exploratory …

  • Interventions to Promote Forgiveness in Couple and Family Context

    Open AccessEverett L Worthington, David J Jennings et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychology and Theology2010

    Forgiveness interventions have not been adapted for children, couples, families, and also specifically with Christians. Conceptualization and theorizing have lagged empirical studies. We use a stress-and-coping conceptualization of forgiveness to provide a framework for understanding forgiveness in family context, especially with Christians. Although several evidence-based interventions to promote forgiveness have been developed, few have targete…

  • Relational Spirituality and Dealing With Transgressions

    Don E Davis, Joshua N Hook et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal for the…2010Referências: 6

    In the study of spirituality and forgiveness, researchers have begun to look at how dynamic spiritual experiences influence forgiveness. In three studies, we develop the Relational Engagement of the Sacred for a Transgression (REST) Scale, which assesses the extent to which victims actively engage a relationship with the Sacred to deal with a specific transgression. In Study 1, exploratory factor analysis was used to determine the factor structur…

  • Relational spirituality and the development of the Similarity of the Offender’s Spirituality Scale

    Don E Davis, Everett L Worthington et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Religion and…2009

    We present a model of relational spirituality and forgiveness that considers how a victim’s spirituality affects his or her experience of and response to a transgression. In 2 studies, we investigate the psychometric properties of the Similarity of the Offender’s Spirituality Scale (SOS), which assesses the extent to which the victim sees the offender as spiritually similar. Results suggest the SOS has 2 factors that assess the offender’s spiritu…
