Abstract Psychological flexibility plays a crucial role in how young adults adapt to their evolving cognitive and emotional landscapes. Our study investigated core aspect of psychological adults: adaptive variability maladaptive rigidity the capacity for behavior change. We examined interplay these elements with cognitive-affective processes within dynamic network, uncovering manifestation everyday life. Through an Ecological Momentary Assessment design, we collected intensive longitudinal...

Love is shaped by cultural context. The Cultural Consensus Theory (CCT) framework can be used to explore shared beliefs within cultures. Immigrants are a growing subculture the United States that may have diverse views on love. This study investigated of everyday love among 230 U.S. adults who had immigrated from 78 countries; participants were aged 19–72 years (M = 37.82, SD 11.38). We aimed (1) assess whether immigrants come consensus what means in daily life, (2) details immigrants’ while...

Over the past decade, open science movement has transformed research landscape, though its impact largely been confined to developed countries. Recently, researchers from developing countries have called for a redesign of better align with their unique contexts. However, raising awareness alone is insufficient—practical actions are required drive meaningful and inclusive change. In this work, we analyze opportunities offered by explore macro- micro-level barriers in face when engaging these...

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted emerging adult first-year college students’ daily lives and well-being. Adaptive emotion regulation (ER) is crucial for this developmental transition phase during challenging times. We assessed 1,796 ecological momentary assessments from 76 students (aged 18–20, 71% female, 46% white) the Spring 2020 campus lockdowns. Multilevel model results revealed that specific Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) based ER behaviors were associated with greater then...

Social connection is a key ingredient for healthy aging; however, the specific experiencesof daily living that make most older adults feel loved have not been studiedsystematically. To fill this gap, we surveyed representative sample (N=408) of USadults over 65 years age. They were asked to judge 61 everyday life experiencesfor their potential generate loving feelings. We applied Cultural Consensus Theoryto uncover shared agreement on expressions love among andtested whether there was...

Love is a quintessential aspect of the human experience. Investigating literature on love in psychological science messy and convoluted. A comprehensive overview field its future trajectories needed to gain insight into how research has progressed over time what needs be addressed. Previous reviews tend have limited scope or contain subjective inferences about state construct love, resulting fragmented insights lack scientific view love. To address this limitation, we used bibliometric...

Abstract We introduce a theoretical framework for conceptualizing Psychological Well‐Being (PWB) as process that unfolds over short and longer time‐scales. argue this can be especially useful studying the change mechanisms in PWB within context of mobile Health (mHealth) interventions. Four lines research are considered to inform scientific exploration mHealth First, we explore key dynamic characteristics functioning. Second, discuss intervention response learning (i.e., meaningful...

Well-being has been the focus of investigation in psychological sciences recent years, yet cross-sectional and group-level methods fall short capturing dynamics person-level well-being experiences daily life. This is particularly important for young adults who are a developmental phase which they experience unique fluctuations their In present study we used ecological momentary assessments from two samples first-year college students (Sample 1, N = 103, 2,535; Sample 2, 76, 1,796) dynamic...
