Abstract
Distress tolerance(DT) is an important transdiagnostic construct that has been implicated in the development and maintenance of various psychological disorders. Since DT was suggested many theoretical/empirical studies about the construct have been conducted. Among them there are studies examining the process of withstanding distress and factors that have influence on DT. Several models depicting the process of withstanding distress have been suggested but these are different in the aspects of theoretical perspectives, analysis levels, and ranges of explanation. To improve our understanding about the process of withstanding distress, it is important to compare main features of these models. However there were no studies conducting theoretical review about this subject. Therefore we aimed to review those models that capturing the process of withstanding distress and examine advantages and limitations of them. Moreover we aimed to develop a new model that compensates shortcomings of prior models and suggest some future researches.
Abstract
This paper aimed to introduce the core principles of Community Psychology to the community of psychologists in South Korea. Beginning with the definitions of “community” in Korean language and “community psychology,” the concepts of such principles as individual and family wellness promotion, sense of community, respect for human diversity, social justice, citizen participation, empowerment, collaboration and community strengths, and empirical grounding, were explained. Along with the concepts, its implications in the contemporary South Korea were discussed, in terms of research and practice possibilities.
Abstract
Recent work in moral psychology is focused on questions about utilitarianism (i.e., saving more people’s lives) and deontology (i.e., disapproving of sacrificing one person for the greater good of others). This study aimed to answer two questions. First, which individual differences in emotional and cognitive processes have a critical impact on utilitarian and deontological judgments? Second, do cognitive styles facilitate a specific moral judgment? In Study 1, various moral dilemma scenarios were presented and the participants had to indicate how morally appropriate it would be for them to kill one person to save others. In addition, they completed a self-report questionnaire regarding empathic empathic concern, perspective-taking, need for cognition and moral identity. The results revealed that participants with preferences for utilitarian judgments showed lower perspective-taking than other participants. In Study 2, the findings revealed the relationship between verbalizer-visualizer cognitive styles and utilitarian judgments. The visualizer cognitive styles showed reduced utilitarian judgments. These results implicated the possibility that reduced empathy (i.e. perspective taking) and the verbalizer cognitive style regulated the automatic emotional process and resulted in increased utilitarian judgements. Finally, limitations of this study and future work were discussed.
Abstract
This study examines the approach that has so far recognized the psychological tendency for the safety and reduce the risk. For this purpose, introduce the domestic and international risk and psychological research on safe, I suggest that you should think and implications contained therein. Specifically, it proposed a psychological question facing the dangerous situation facing the incident that occurred in Korea. The following risk and safety, examined the concept of an accident. Had established the concept of objective and subjective risk, empirical assessment in the evaluation of risk(accident experience and experience in handling incidents), assessment of cognitive(knowledge of the tools, environment and humans), perceptual evaluation(risk control material, attributed to the accident, perception of the risk to be controlled and responsible), looked for the emotional evaluation(emotional reactions and attitudes to risk, anxiety and motivation levels). Finally, the research results and reduce the risk introduced in this study describes the psychological suggestions.
Abstract
Psychologists working on psychometric data often struggle with the process of data fitting which requires advanced knowledge about programming and mathematics. Although some commercial softwares reduce investigators effort to perform the process, still most of them are far from easy tools that a beginner tries them without hesitation. In contrast, the Microsoft Excel provides intuitive ways to fit data and calculate the parameters. In this paper, the processes of data fittings are demonstrated step by step using the Excel solver. Specifically, in fitting non-linear data, the least squares estimation and maximum likelihood estimation are introduced and the processes are compared to understand the difference. Finally, it was discussed how to statistically test the parameters between groups that were obtained from the data fitting.
