Chatbots and human-human relationships
The rise of generative AI into society via chatbots potentially heralds both positive and negative consequences for human-human relationships. This Voices article highlights four main potential downstream negative consequences that merit further empirical investigation. First, we consider whether conversational systems infused with a large language model (LLM) might often lead to reduced human-human socialization, such as by providing relational …
Dominance and prestige in romantic relationships
Dominance and prestige reflect different forms of power and can affect relationship outcomes. Whereas dominance is a conflict-oriented way of dealing with people and grabbing status, prestige is derived from respect and esteem that is granted by others due to superior skills and knowledge. In this research, we tested three partially competing perspectives on potential associations of dominance and prestige with relationship quality (RQ). Sociobio…
Authentic/hubristic pride controversies as a window on broader emotion measurement issues
Replies to Tracy, et al. (see record 2023-63008-002) on the current authors' comments (see record 2023-63008-001) to Tracy, et al.'s original article (see record 2007-02840-009). In our conceptual and empirical review of the Authentic Pride (AP) and Hubristic Pride (HP) scales, we concluded that they do not validly assess a two-facet model of the emotion of pride. For instance, we concluded that the HP scale is not a measure of pride at all and s…
The Authentic and Hubristic Pride scales do not validly assess the two-facet model of pride
The Authentic and Hubristic Pride scales (see record 2007-02840-009) have been used in hundreds of studies aiming to investigate the popular 2-facet model of pride (Tracy & Robins, 2004, 2007), and they continue to be the primary assessment tools used for that purpose. In 2014, in this journal, Holbrook et al. (2014a, 2014b) raised concerns about the validity of these scales' scores, such as arguing that the Hubristic Pride scale did not measure …
Why We Should Reject the Restrictive Isomorphic Matching Definition of Empathy
A growing cadre of influential scholars has converged on a circumscribed definition of empathy as restricted only to feeling the same emotion that one perceives another is feeling. We argue that this restrictive isomorphic matching (RIM) definition is deeply problematic because (1) it deviates dramatically from traditional conceptualizations of empathy and unmoors the construct from generations of scientific research and clinical practice; (2) in…
Authors Reply
The three commentaries on “Why We Should Reject the Restrictive Isomorphic Matching (RIM) Definition of Empathy” mostly concurred with our critique of that widely adopted definition of empathy. Yet, commenters also raised important questions relating to the clarity and operationalizability of our recommended alternative: returning to a classical conceptualization of empathy as a dynamic, functionally oriented, multi-faceted unfolding process. To …
Feeling Powerful” versus “Desiring Power”
C. S. Peirce’s Forgotten but Enduring Relevance to Psychological Science
Charles Sanders Peirce (1839-1914) was one of the most polymathically brilliant scientific thinkers in American history. He was also arguably the first American experimental psychologist, strongly influencing some of the nation’s earliest modern psychology pioneers. Yet partly because of the lasting effects of personal scandals and powerful enemies, he has been almost entirely forgotten by the broader field of psychology. This article aims to bri…
The Griffith empathy measure needs to be revised with attention to item coding direction
The Griffith empathy measure (GEM; Dadds et al., 2008, Child Psychiatry and Human Development, 39, 111) needs to be revisited through further factor analytic and interpretational work. Studies using it in the manner proposed by Dadds et al., to make strong claims distinguishing between cognitive and affective empathy in children, are likely to be inaccurate or misleading (e.g., Georgiou, Kimonis, & Fanti, 2018, European Journal of Developmental P…
Sexual Assault in Ethiopian Contexts
This study presents data from a large sample of clinic-evaluated sexual assault survivors ( N = 1,667) in Ethiopia between 2009 and 2015, one of the largest such samples ever analyzed in an African country. Statistical analyses revealed a disproportionate number of minors presenting to the clinics, an extremely high prevalence of special kidnapping cases, significant differences in access and assault characteristics between survivors from within …
The Griffith Empathy Measure Does Not Validly Distinguish between Cognitive and Affective Empathy in Children
ObjectiveTo evaluate the construct validity of the Griffith Empathy Measure (GEM), specifically the validity of its separate “cognitive” and “affective” empathy scales. If these scales do distinguishably measure these separable constructs, then this would greatly complicate many past findings using the unidimensional Bryant Empathy Index, which is the original source of the scale items. If these scales are not valid as distinguishable measures of…
