In this article, we assess the structural equivalence of Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) across 26 samples from 24 countries ( N = 12,200). The ZTPI is proven to be a valid and reliable index individual differences in time perspective five temporal categories: Past Negative, Positive, Present Fatalistic, Hedonistic, Future. We obtained evidence for invariance 36 items (out 56) also five-factor structure 23 countries. short scales are country-level analysis, whereas recommend use...
In this study, we developed and evaluated a Swedish version of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI; & Boyd, 1999 ). The original ZTPI was extended by including Future Negative scale, psychometric properties both versions were examined in sample 419 adults aged between 18 80 years. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) provided support for five-factor solution proposed Boyd (1999 ) six-factor with scale as an independent factor. These findings extend suggest that negative feelings...
We examined cross-sectional aging patterns for subscales of the Swedish version Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory in a population-based sample older adults (60–90 years; N = 447). Alternative methods to assess time perspective balance (DBTP, involving single Future dimension; S-BTP; and DBTP-E, including addition, Negative), were compared their relations subjective well-being (SWB) examined. Significant negative age observed Past Negative with clear age-related increase Present Fatalistic,...
To investigate the relationship between mindfulness and aspects of time perspective (TP, i.e., habitual views past, present, future). We examined cross-sectional associations an established measure (FFMQ) extended version Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (Swedish ZTPI; S-ZTPI) in a sample with little experience training (n = 212). In addition, we evaluated effects two mindfulness-based interventions (a instructor course involving 29 participants mindful self-compassion program, n 40 for...
The current study investigates the relevance of positive attitudes toward Internet technologies for psychological well-being and social in old age. A sample 245 elderly people ( Mean age = 70; SD =9.1) filled Psychological Well-Being Questionnaire, Social Attitudes Toward Technologies Questionnaire (ATTQ). Favorable showed correlations with overall all its components exception acceptance. Positive two components, namely, personal growth purpose life, were also found. Two hierarchical...
Anxiety disorders are associated with impairments in several aspects of cognitive processing. In this study we investigated three such aspects, i.e., time perspective, repetitive negative thinking (worry and rumination), executive functioning, persons anxiety compared to healthy controls examined the influence past future perspective functioning on worry rumination.Thirty-six psychiatric outpatients (mean age = 30.83, SD 11.74; 30 females 6 males) 44 28.89, 9.54; 24 20 completed inventories...
Objectives: To examine the extent to which time perspective, an individual's habitual way of relating past, present, and future frames, accounts for variations in self-reported depressive symptoms among older adults. Method: Four hundred two participants (60-90 years) completed Center Epidemiological Studies Depression scale (CES-D) Swedish Zimbardo Time perspective Inventory (S-ZTPI). The influence personality as reflected by Temperament Character (TCI) negative life events (NLEs) were...
A number of patient studies suggest that impairments in frontal lobe functions are associated with disorders temporal information processing. One implication these findings is subjective experience time should be related to executive regardless etiology. In two experiments, we examined sense relation components functioning healthy children and adults. Experiment 1, between 8 12 years completed six experimental tasks tapped three functioning: inhibition, updating, mental shifting. Sense was a...
Time perspective is crucial in adolescence and youth, when individuals make important decisions related to their present future. The focus of this research was use the six-factor short version Zimbardo Perspective Inventory (S-ZTPI) scale a sample adolescents young adults, analyse its associations with decision-making, relational styles engagement. A structural equation model effects S-ZTPI on these variables computed, psychometric properties were found adequate. results underline that...
A major aim of the present study was to examine relationship between time perspective, i.e., habitual ways relating past, present, and future, sleep quality. second test a model by which expected negative deviation from balanced perspective (DBTP), measure taking temporal biases across all three frames into account, life satisfaction mediated poor To these ends, sample young adults ( N = 386) completed version Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (S-ZTPI), Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index...
This study investigated relations between general cognitive ability (g) and aspects of time perspective, i.e. habitual ways relating to the past, present, future, in a sample older adults (60–90 years, N = 438). In main focus was measure deviations from balanced perspective (DBTP), reflecting differences proposed ideal observed score profile on Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (S-ZTPI). A current g factor four markers negatively related DBTP (β −0.31), with higher estimate −0.40) for...
Prior research indicates that time perspective (TP; views of past, present and future) is related to decision making style. By contrast, no prior study considered relations between decision-making competence. We therefore investigated associations dimensions the Swedish Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (S-ZTPI) performance on Adult Decision-Making Competence (A-DMC) battery in a sample older adults (60-90 years, N = 346). A structural equation model involving four A-DMC components as...
The temperament of three groups 1- to 3-year-old children from Italy and Australia was compared using Australian Italian versions the Toddler Temperament Scale (Fullard, McDevitt, & Carey, 1984). Italians, Australians, Italo-Australians (Italian parent but living in Australia) differed on Intensity, Threshold, Approach, Persistence dimensions temperament, ways which supported stereotype sociable "emotional" type. Overall, Australians Italians were most different, with between. Developmental...

Coordinating multiple tasks requires a high degree of cognitive control, and individuals with limited executive functions often show difficulties in everyday multitasking. We tested the hypothesis that demands on control can be alleviated by internally representing temporal pattern goals deadlines as spatial relations. In two experiments, participants completed multitasking session monitoring four clocks running at different rates, along separate functioning ability. Experiment 1, individual...
Keeping track of durations multiple event attributes with different onset and offset times is a challenging task for both children adults. In this study, between 5 15 years young adults observed puppet show in which three puppets appeared on the scene during overlapping intervals 30 s to 90 s. At test, participants completed conventional time estimation timeline they reconstructed temporal pattern by drawing each puppet. For all age groups, produced more accurate duration judgments than...
