  • Daily Stressor Appraisals and Subjective Age Predict Daily Affective Ratings

    Open AccessLyndsey Graham, Erica L O’brien et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2025Referências: 6

    Objectives Stressor appraisals are a transaction between the environment and the individual, such that individuals may appraise a situation as stressful when the problem is greater than the resources available to address it. Stressors appraised as threatening to the way one feels about themselves, their plans for the future, or their own physical health and safety are known to increase negative affect. Appraisal theory frames our predictions rega…

  • Between-Person and Daily Within-Person Variation Patterns in Measures of Views of Aging

    Open AccessErica L O’brien, Joshua M Smyth et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2023Citada por: 1Referências: 4

    Analyses suggest relative stability in daily measures of VOA over a 1-week period. Further study of measures (and age groups) showing greater within-person variability (evidenced by lower ratios of between-person to within-person variation) can increase understanding about constructs with greater sensitivity to fluctuating contexts. It can also inform future work linking VOA to other phenomenon in daily life

  • Cognitive Interference in the Context of Daily Stressors, Daily Awareness of Age-Related Change, and General Aging Attitudes

    Open AccessErica L O’brien, Genesis E Torres et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2020Citada por: 2Referências: 11

    Both individual differences and fluctuating daily perceptions of aging appear to be important for older adults' cognitive interference. Consistent with other work, positive ATOA protected against daily stressor effects. Further elucidating these relationships can increase understanding of and facilitate efforts to improve (daily) cognitive experiences in older adults

  • Managing expectations

    Open AccessErica L O’brien, Neika SharifianARTICLEJournal of Social and Personal…2020Citada por: 6Referências: 57

    The degree to which social support (SS) moderates the effects of stress on self-perceptions of aging may depend on individual differences in general aging attitudes. We examined how stress, different types of SS, and general expectations regarding aging (ERA) affect awareness of age-related changes (AARCs). The sample included 137 adults (21-76 years; 56.2% women) who took an online survey on Amazon's Mechanical Turk. Regression analyses showed d…
