Perceiving Fact-Checks as Biased but Nevertheless Persuaded? Effects of Fact-Checking News Delivered by Partisan Media (Study 2)
No full textResearch Questions and Hypothesis
(Persuasive effect)
Hypothesis 1 (H1): As a result of exposure to fact-checking news, prior attitude (or belief) on the issue would be changed toward the direction suggested by the fact-checking news.
Hypothesis 2 (H2): The effect of fact-checking news would be consistent regardless of whether the content of the news is counter-attitudinal or pro-attitudinal.
Hypothesis 3 (H3): The effect of the fact-checking news would be consistent regardless of the political slant of the news media.
(Perceived bias)
Hypothesis 4a (H4a): The perceived bias on fact-checking news would be varied by the content of the fact-checking news.
Hypothesis 4b (H4b): The perceived bias on fact-checking news would vary by the perceived political slant of partisan media.
Hypothesis 5a (H5a): Attitude-consistent fact-checking news content would be perceived as less biased, while counter-attitudinal content would be perceived to be more biased.
Hypothesis 5b (H5b): Fact-checking news by in-group source would be perceived to be less biased, while fact-checking news by out-group source would be perceived to be more biased.
Hypothesis 6 (H6): The intensity of bias perception on fact-checking news would be increased as the ideological strength of an individual increases

The effect of relatedness need satisfaction and mediated immediacy on applicant reactions to video interviews (Evaluator ID study)
No full text• To what extent does relatedness satisfaction within AVIs affect applicant reactions, performance, and anxiety?
• If applicants are made aware of specifically who will be evaluating their AVI, to what extent will this affect applicants’ performance, anxiety, and applicant reactions?
Asynchronous Video Interviews (AVIs) are a relatively new assessment and selection technology, allowing organisations to evaluate large numbers of applicants more efficiently and at lower cost than face to face (F2F) interviews. AVI use has increased substantially in the recent year, brought on by the current COVID-19 recession which has seen unemployment rates rise rapidly in a short period of time, combined with social distancing measures. While AVIs offer tangible benefits to both organisations and applicants, technology-mediated interviews are not necessarily equivalent to their F2F counterparts in terms of applicant reactions (job applicants’ attitudes towards the hiring process and organisation), and how applicants’ interview performances are evaluated.
In this experiment, I will be manipulating the ‘intro’ and ‘outro’ videos during the AVI in a 2x2 factorial between-subjects experimental design. The conditions will be ‘relatedness support’ (high vs neutral) vs “mediated immediacy’ (high vs low). Relatedness support will be manipulated through the inclusion (high) or omission (neutral) of warm, inclusive communication. Mediated immediacy will be manipulated through the video’s presenter identifying themselves as either the applicant’s specific AVI evaluator (high mediated immediacy), or as a generic store team member (low mediated immediacy)
Nostalgia dan Dukungan Sosial
No full textPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan bukti empiris mengenai hubungan antara nostalgia dan dukungan emosional pada pengguna media sosial yang melihat posting kebersamaan dengan orang lain di media sosial. Penelitian menggunakan metode kuantitatif korelasional. Alat ukur yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini, yaitu State Functions of Nostalgia Scale oleh Hepper, et al yang diadaptasi oleh Abraham, et al dan 2-Way Social Support Scale (2-WSSC) hanya pada dimensi memberi dan menerima yang dikonstruk oleh Shakespeare-Finch, J. & Obst, P. L. dan telah diadaptasi oleh peneliti dalam bahasa Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara nostalgia dan dukungan emosional (r=0.500, p < 0.001). Penelitian ini memiliki implikasi berupa seseorang dengan pengalaman nostalgia di media sosial dan memiliki hubungan yang tetap dengan seseorang dalam kenangan nostalgia melalui media sosial memberikan dukungan sosial yang positif terutama pada dukungan emosional
Identifying needs and goals of women receiving midwifery care (MiCa)
No full textNon-interventional qualitative study to identify women’s needs when receiving care from midwives throughout the whole span of midwifery care. The study has been approved by the Local Psychological Ethics Commission at the Center for Psychosocial Medicine, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (date: 08/08/2021
Finding Middle Ground: Nuanced Perceptions Towards Others (Study 2 Pre-registration)
No full textThe purpose of this research study is to collect data and learn more about Nuanced Perceptions of Valence of Others, which is the readiness to view other people as being a mix of good and bad qualities. This is not the same as seeing others as entirely good or entirely bad, which is a defense mechanism known as "splitting". Nuance is an element of Faith in Humanity which has been discussed from a theoretical orientation, but a good measure of elements of Faith in Humanity has not been developed yet (Tweed et al., 2021). This study will be a next step in developing a questionnaire to assess one subcomponent of Faith in Humanity, readiness to have nuanced judgments of others
YARH-3 Impact Study
No full textThe YARH-3 summative evaluation will be the first rigorous impact evaluation of Colorado’s Pathways comprehensive service model. The impact study will use a cluster quasi-experimental design to assess the outcomes of youth and young adults in Hubs offering Pathways (intervention condition) and Hubs offering Chafee services as usual (comparison Hubs). Pathways case managers (known as Navigators) will use coaching strategies to develop a working alliance with the youth or young adult by listening to them, asking powerful questions, approaching them with curiosity instead of judgment, encouraging them, helping them set achievable goals, and respectfully holding them accountable. The impact study will examine outcomes at three timepoints – 6-, 12-, and 24-months after enrollment – to see the short- and long- term effects of Pathways. The impact study will collect outcomes in five areas: (1) housing, (2) education, (3) employment, (4) permanent connections, and (5) health and well-being
Emotion Attribution and Embodied Emotion Expertise
No full textIt has been theorized that dance has served an evolutionary function in humans as a means of communication, social signaling, and interaction (Fink et al., 2021; Sachs & Schonberg, 1937). Although previous research is limited, some findings suggest experience with dance or other motor expertise may augment one’s emotion perception and attribution abilities (Bonny et al., 2017; Calvo-Merino, 2005; Calvo-Merino et al., 2009; Christensen et al., 2016). In this study we will test the hypothesis that experience with dance may be associated with emotion attribution ability in adults. Prior research in this field has not tested emotion attribution ability using multiple channels of emotion expression (i.e., facially and bodily cued emotion), and has not tested a wide variety of dance style experience in its participants. This proposal remedies issues with the previous research by including multiple measures that use dynamic facial and bodily transmitted emotions. A dance group will be compared to a control group on performance based emotion attribution using three different video stimuli sets: the Warburg Dance Movement Library (Christensen et al., 2019), the Mime Faces (Ershadi et al., 2018), and the McNorm Library (Smith & Cross, 2021). The Warburg Dance Movement Library presents full body video clips of dancers expressing positive, neutral, and negative emotion valences. The Mime Faces presents dynamic facial video clips of discrete basic emotional states, complex emotional states, mental states, physical states, and actions. The McNorm Library presents point light displays of full body dance expressions of basic emotional states. This will be the first study to empirically examine potential relations between dance experience and various facets of emotion perception and attribution based on channels of expressions (i.g., face versus body, emotion valence versus discrete emotions, emotional states versus mental states). Responding to the low convergence across emotion attribution measures (Weidman et al., 2017), this will also be the first study to examine emotion attribution ability convergence across measures that rely on different emotion expression channels and if dissociations between measures are dependent on experience
