Stage 2 Registered Report: Impulsivity and online sports betting behavior: Untangling the causal relationship
No full textThe rapid expansion of online sports betting has raised concerns about its potential impact on individual health and public health. In order to further develop etiological models for gambling disorder (GD) in sports betting, it is essential to unravel the underlying causal processes. Recent studies have identified risky online gambling behavior as an early indicator of GD. This study focuses on impulsivity as a well-documented risk factor for GD and investigated whether increased impulsivity leads to risky online gambling behavior and subsequently contributes to GD. Impulsivity, risky gambling behavior, and GD symptoms were assessed three times at three-month intervals using a longitudinal cross-lagged panel design. We recruited a final sample of n = 427 regular sports bettors from the online gambling provider Tipico. Impulsivity and GD were assessed using a combination of online experimental tasks and questionnaires. As a measure of risky gambling behavior, Tipico provided player tracking data for allparticipants. Random intercept cross‐lagged panel models were used to test the evidence for our hypotheses. Results showed partial support for the role of impulsivity in the development of GD, particularly through facets such as impulsive choice and certain impulsive personality traits. However, the findings suggest that impulsivity does not directly predict risky betting behavior, nor does such behavior mediate the relationship between impulsivity and GD severity. These results emphasize the complexity of pathways to GD, highlighting the need to explore multifactorial models incorporating emotional, cognitive, and environmental mediators.notReviewedothe

Dataset for: The Moderating Role of Stress in the Relationship Between Attachment and Relationship Satisfaction Among Cohabiting Couples in the Philippines
No full textPrevious studies have suggested that cohabiting couples are at higher risk of insecure attachment and relationship dissatisfaction and the link between these variables point to various behavioral and relational patterns associated with insecure attachment orientations. Guided by the Diathesis Stress Process Model of Attachment, the present study contextualizes previous study findings by testing the moderating role of stress between attachment and relationship satisfaction. An online survey via online panel was conducted among 415 individuals in cohabiting relationships, aged 18-42, who were residing in the Greater Manila Area. Accounting for various statistical controls, hierarchical multiple regression and slopes analyses revealed that acute external stress moderated between attachment anxiety and relationship satisfaction, whereas chronic internal stress moderated between attachment avoidance and relationship satisfaction. Implications for clinical practice and future avenues for research are discussed.unknow
DFG-Abschlussbericht IVEKU - Immersive VR-Lernumgebungen: Effekte von Kohärenzbildung & Umgebungsdetails
No full textImmersive Virtual Reality (IVR) ermöglicht ein realistisches Erleben digitaler Welten. Während IVR als vielversprechend für Lernumgebungen gilt, in denen komplexe kognitive Fähigkeiten trainiert werden, ist unklar, ob sie auch bei der Verarbeitung verbaler Informationen in authentischen Kontexten effektiv ist. Einige Studien zeigen Lernvorteile, während andere keine Lerneffekte oder sogar eine Überforderung der Lernenden feststellen. Diese Diskrepanz weist auf eine Forschungslücke hin, insbesondere hinsichtlich der Frage, wie sich die Kohärenz bzw. Passung zwischen verbalem Lerninhalt und immersiven Umgebungsdetails auf das Lernen auswirkt. Das Projekt «IVEKU» adressierte diese Forschungslücke, indem es die Effektivität von IVR-Umgebungen für den Wissenserwerb mit besonderem Fokus auf die Kohärenz zwischen verbal repräsentierten Lerninhalten und räumlich-situativen Umgebungsdetails untersuchte. Im Mittelpunkt standen die Auswirkungen von Kohärenz und Umgebungsdetails auf die kognitive Verarbeitung (einschließlich der kognitiven Belastung), die Wahrnehmung räumlicher Präsenz, den Wissenserwerb und die Motivation der Lernenden. Darüber hinaus dienten Blickbewegungsmuster als Indikatoren für Kohärenzbildungsprozesse und das räumliche Vorstellungsvermögen der Lernenden als moderierender Faktor für die Lernwirksamkeit. Kern des Projekts war die Durchführung eines zweifaktoriellen Laborexperiments mit 77 Studierenden und ergänzenden Prozessanalysen. Als Zwischenfaktor wurden die Umgebungsdetails einer VR-Umgebung entweder als immersive 360° VR-Umgebung oder als 2D-Bild in einer neutralen „weißen“ 360° VR-Umgebung präsentiert. Innerhalb dieser Umgebung (einer virtuellen Nachbildung der Sixtinischen Kapelle) wurden Textfelder implementiert, mit deren Hilfe die Kohärenz zwischen Umgebungsdetails und Lerninhalten als Innersubjektfaktor manipuliert wurden. Alle Probanden durchliefen das kohärente als auch das inkohärente IVR-Lernszenario. In beiden Bedingungen arbeiteten sie mit textbasiertem Lernmaterial, das entweder einen starken Bezug zu den Umgebungsdetails aufwies (kohärente Bedingung: Texte bezogen sich auf die Struktur des Innenraums) oder sich auf die Interpretation eines Bildes beschränkte, für dessen Analyse die Umgebungsdetails nicht entscheidend waren. Entgegen unseren Erwartungen zeigten die Projektergebnisse, dass Lernende mit inkohärenten Lernmaterialien besser lernten. Umgebungsdetails hatten dem-nach keine ablenkende Wirkung. Die Ergebnisse stellen bestehende Theorien zum immersiven Lernen in Frage und unterstreichen die Bedeutung weiterer Forschung zur IVR-spezifischen Aufmerksamkeitsregulation.Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) allows learners to experience digital environments with a high degree of realism. While IVR is often considered promising for learning environments that require the development of complex cognitive skills, its effectiveness in supporting the processing of verbal information in authentic contexts remains uncertain. Previous research has produced mixed results, with some studies reporting learning benefits, while others have found no effects or evidence of learner overload. This inconsistency reveals a crucial research gap, particularly in understanding how the coherence between verbal content and immersive environmental details influences learning processes. The "IVEKU" project addressed this gap by investigating whether and how the congruence or coherence between verbal learning materials and spatial-situational environmental elements within an IVR setting affects cognitive processing (including cognitive load), perception of spatial presence, knowledge acquisition, and learner motivation. In addition, eye-tracking data were used as a process indicator of coherence building, and learners' visuospatial skills were examined as a moderating factor in the effectiveness of IVR-based learning. The core of the project was a two-factorial laboratory experiment with 77 students, complemented by process analyses. The environmental details of an IVR environment were presented either as an immersive 360° scene or as a 2D image in a neutral "white room" 360° VR environment. Both conditions were based on a virtual reconstruction of the Sistine Chapel into which text fields were integrated to deliver the learning content. The coherence between the learning material and the environment was manipulated within subjects: all participants experienced both a coherent scenario (with texts related to structural details of the chapel) and an incoherent scenario (with texts focused on image interpretation, unrelated to environmental details). Contrary to our hypotheses, the results showed that learners performed better with incoherent learning materials. Environmental details did not distract learners as hypothesized. These findings challenge established theories of immersive learning and highlight the need for further research on attentional regulation specific to IVR, with the ultimate goal of setting new benchmarks in immersive learning research.Gefördert durch die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) – HA 10172/1-1; Projektnummer 518077247 / Funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) – HA 10172/1-1; Project ID 518077247reviewe

Pioneering work in this field has been done, about which this article offers a detailed overview. Basic concepts (corporeality, relationship, dying, assistance) and methodological approaches (accompaniment, life balance, comfort), furthermore the possibilities and tasks of clinical pastoral care are presented with practical examples – a compact presentation of integrative thanatotherapy couselling and pastoral care for the dying.https://www.fpi-publikation.de/polyloge/09-2025-lessner-wittke-integrative-therapie-und-ihr-ansatz-in-der-sterbebegleitung/peerReviewedpublishedVersio
Die kreativen musikalischen Leistungen von KI-Systemen im Vergleich zu Musikstudierenden: Eine Replikation der Studie von Schreiber et al. (2024)
No full textAlthough the last two years have seen AI systems progress significantly when it comes to generating cultural products like literature, poems, or music, the jury is still out when it comes to determining whether the aesthetic quality of these products increases in tandem with the performance enhancements of underlying large language models (LLMs). We replicated the study by Schreiber et al. (2024) to test whether the creative performance of selected LLMs had improved over the past two years in the musical domain. In an online rating experiment based on a melody continuation paradigm, 75 melodic continuations generated by the AI systems Qwen 2 (Version 72B Instruct), Llama 3 (Version 70B Instruct), and ChatGPT (Version 4) were compared to 23 solutions composed by humans. The aesthetic quality of the sound examples was then evaluated by N = 54 listeners (music students) using four criteria (convincing, logical and meaningful, interesting, and liking). As the first main finding, human-based creative solutions outperformed all three AI systems on all four dependent variables (large effect sizes 1.11 ≤ dz ≤ 2.51), thus confirming the finding by Schreiber et al. (2024). The second main finding revealed a mean (and meaningful) discrimination sensitivity of d’ = 1.09 for AI- and human-based solutions. We conclude that merely boosting the volume of training of the AI systems does not guarantee correlating improvement in the creative musical output produced under controlled conditions.peerReviewedpublishedVersio
Unveiling the dark: Exploring the nomological consistency of the Short Dark Triad and Dirty Dozen scales
No full textWe examined the consistency of the Short Dark Triad (SD3) and the Dirty Dozen (DD) scales, which are widely used for assessing Dark Triad traits (Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy), in a community Italian sample of 504 individuals aged 18 to 89 years. The findings revealed strong convergence for Machiavellianism and psychopathy across the two scales. In contrast, narcissism demonstrated weaker convergence, with moderate correlations between the SD3 and DD scales. Nomological consistency, the degree to which different indicators of a construct share similar associations with external criteria, was assessed using four sets of criteria: psychopathy or empathy, the Five-Factor Model of personality, mental health (psychological well-being, anxiety, and depression), and social disinhibition. Both scales showed moderate consistency with empathy, the Big Five, and social disinhibition criteria but displayed inconsistency concerning mental health criteria. Psychopathy and Machiavellianism exhibited distinct patterns in relation to social disinhibition. Narcissism demonstrated the most divergence from other traits and the highest inconsistency between SD3 and DD. The SD3 appeared to focus predominantly on grandiose narcissism, whereas the DD scale likely encompasses both grandiose and vulnerable aspects of narcissism. Consequently, SD3 and DD cannot be considered fully equivalent measures of Dark Triad traits.peerReviewedpublishedVersio
