The COVID-19 pandemic has increased negative emotions and decreased positive globally. Left unchecked, these emotional changes might have a wide array of adverse impacts. To reduce increase emotions, we tested the effectiveness reappraisal, an emotion regulation strategy which modifies how one thinks about situation. Participants from 87 countries/regions (N = 21,644) were randomly assigned to two brief reappraisal interventions (reconstrual or repurposing) control conditions (active...
Abstract Background The current war in Ukraine has affected the well-being of people worldwide. In order to understand how difficult situation is, specific stressors associated with need be measured. response, an inventory war-related including its short form, been developed. Methods A list potential was created, and content validity each item assessed. list, along other validated scales, administered a representative sample Slovak population (effective N = 1851). Exploratory factor...
This initiative examined systematically the extent to which a large set of archival research findings generalizes across contexts. We repeated key analyses for 29 original strategic management effects in same context (direct reproduction) as well 52 novel time periods and geographies; 45% reproductions returned results matching reports together with 55% tests different spans years 40% geographies. Some were associated multiple new tests. Reproducibility was best predictor...
Purpose The current study aimed to (1) examine the sociodemographic, clinical and psychological factors related subjective cognitive functioning (SCF); (2) analyze complex mutual interconnections between SCFs; (3) address patients' perspectives on SCF supportive care.
Although mental disorders are long considered complex dynamic systems, our understanding of the mutual interactions and temporal patterns their symptoms remains limited. In this longitudinal study, we examined structure dynamics four key health indicators—depression, anxiety, PTSD, insomnia—in a representative sample Slovak population (effective N = 3,874) over 10 waves spanning three half years. For each constructs, panel network model was estimated. The relationships between were mostly...
Terror Management Theory (TMT) proposes that when people are made aware of their own death, they more likely to endorse cultural values. TMT is a staple social psychology, being featured prominently in textbooks and the subject much research. The implications associated with significant, as its advocates claim it can partially explain conflicts, intergroup antagonisms, even war. However, considerable ambiguity regarding effect size exists, no preregistered replication death-thought...

Semantic priming has been studied for nearly 50 years across various experimental manipulations and theoretical frameworks. Although previous studies provide insight into the cognitive underpinnings of semantic representations, they have suffered from small sample sizes a lack linguistic cultural diversity. In this Registered Report, we measured size variability effect 19 languages (N = 25,163 participants analyzed) by creating largest available database values based on an adaptive sampling...

One of the key areas in scientific programs addictive behaviors is research on measurement. In present study, we focus survey measurement gaming disorder. particular, tested gambling hypotheses: whether studies disorder are potentially contaminated by behavior data and thus do not reflect actual behaviors. A systematic review materials among most cited (N=500) provided confirmatory evidence for a error literature. The majority field stemming from conceptual confusion. This problem linguistic...
Abstract Hate speech should be tackled and prosecuted based on how it is operationalized. However, the existing theoretical definitions of hate are not sufficiently fleshed out or easily operable. To overcome this inadequacy, with help interdisciplinary experts, we propose an empirical definition by providing a list 10 indicators rationale behind them (the refer to specific, observable, measurable characteristics that offer practical speech). A preliminary exploratory examination structure...

Background measurement could be assumed as a proxy indicator staffing adequacy or higher risk adverse events. Methods A cross-sectional survey design used. sample 1,429 registered nurses from 21 hospitals Slovakia recruited. Exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory analysis internal reliability were...
Numerous instruments have been developed to measure gaming-related health problems based on “internet gaming disorder” (IGD) in the third section of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Mental Disorders (5th ed.) “gaming (GD) International Classification Diseases (11th rev.). However, criteria manuals tend be operationalized numerous diverse ways, which can make screening outcomes incomparable. A content validity analysis is needed reassess relationships between diagnostic items that...
Because negative findings have less chance of getting published, available studies tend to be a biased sample. This leads an inflation effect size estimates unknown degree. To see how meta-analyses in education account for publication bias, we surveyed all published the last five years Review Educational Research and Review. The results show that usually neglect bias adjustment. In minority adjusting mostly non-principled adjustment methods were used, only rarely conclusions based on...

This study aimed (1) examine relationships of life, posttraumatic growth, resilience coping strategies in global network model, (2) find bridge indicators between other constructs, (3) test for invariance structures across several moderating variables.

Recently, research predictive validity ideal preference matching Do people positively evaluate partners who match vs. mismatch their ideals?) has become mired several problems.

Abstract Objectives There are dozens of screening instruments purporting to measure the (Internet) gaming disorder (IGD/GD). The two prominent diagnostic manuals, DSM‐5 and ICD‐11, list several additional or clinical features problems (e.g., neglect sleep, daily duties, health deterioration) that should co‐occur be caused by IGD/GD. It remains unclear how specific IGD/GD operationalizations (different scales) related these functional impairments. Methods To explore this, data on six measures...
