Abstract

The purpose of the present research was to translate and validate the Passion Scale developed by Vallerand and colleagues(2003) and modified by Marsh and colleagues(2013) in Korean. We conducted an exploratory factor analysis and a confirmatory factor analysis using the data sets of 118 and 200 undergraduate students respectively. Results provided support for the two-factor structure of the Korean Passion Scale consisting of Harmonious Passion (HP) and Obsessive Passion (OP), which had a better fit as compared to the one-factor structure. Support was also found for the criterion-related validity of HP and OP scales using the combined sets of data (N = 318), based on such validity correlates as basic psychological needs, self-esteem, inclusion of self, and well-being related variables. Results from a confirmatory factor analysis to discriminate passion from intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, supported the four-factor model of HP, OP, intrinsic, and extrinsic motivation. In addition, a hierarchical multiple regression analysis resulted in the incremental validity of passion over intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, which suggests that the construct of passion is well discriminated from the motivation measures. Overall, these findings indicated that the Korean Passion Scale is a reliable and valid tool for measuring the concept of passion. Finally, the implications, limitations, and directions for future research were discussed.

Abstract

People express themselves through their clothing, and self-concept plays a key role in the process. In fact, clothing can be used as a self-enhancing tool by drawing positive feedback from others. Given that narcissistic individuals routinely utilize different techniques for the purpose of self-enhancement, they may use their clothing as an effective way to enhance themselves. In the present study, we examined whether narcissistic individuals who are obsessed with grandiosity actually dress well in everyday life. Participants (N = 201; 100 women) completed self-report measures of narcissism, and their pictures were taken. Twelve characteristics of participants’ clothing were rated by 4 coders. In addition, the prototype of “well-dressed” using the same 12 items was obtained by 87 college students. We found that narcissism, particularly grandiose exhibitionism, was positively related to the “well-dressed” prototype scores.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of forward and mixed-ordered question in the true and deceptive group on the recalling of episodic event. 80 college students were sorted into two(true vs. deceptive) groups. And again, they were randomly classified into forward question group and mixed-ordered question group. They were shown the video clip of theft, and interviewed according to 2 types of question-order. In first interview, they were free-recalling of the full contents of event, and in second interview, they were recalling of additional information about specific parts of video. All the interviews were recorded and written and analyzed written files. Major results are as follows: First, in second interview, new information in true group were more in mixed-ordered question than forward question. But deceptive group had no difference of acquired information between in mixed-ordered and forward question. Second, both true and deceptive group had more true information in mixed-ordered question than forward question. And deceptive group had more new untrue information in forward question than mixed-ordered question. This study found that mixed-ordered question would get more new true information than forward question in truth teller and liar in investigative interview.

The present study aimed to examine a change in pupil size and the eye movement during deception. Participants were recruited for either guilty (25 people) or innocent (27 people) group and performed a mock crime. After the mock crime, participants' pupil size and eye movements (fixation count and dwell time) were measured during the comparison question test. During the comparison question test, nine sentences (two crime-related questions, three comparison questions, four irrelevant questions) were presented on the monitor connected with eye tracker. The findings indicated that the guilty group showed significantly larger pupil size when the crime-relevant questions were given than did the innocent group while two groups showed no difference in fixation count and dwell time. The findings revealed that pupil dilation was different between liars and truth tellers, and thus, pupil dilation can be a useful measurement to detect deception and may contribute to an increase of the accuracy of lie detection.

Abstract

I investigated how social-class effects differ with age in the domain of choice. Young (less than 40) and old (over 60) participants from working-class and middle-class backgrounds indicated their preferences and choices about consumer products before and after seeing others’ preferences (consistent or conflicting with their own) for the same products. The result showed that social-class differences in choice were maintained into late adulthood. Replicating the effects among young participants, old working-class participants were more sensitive to social feedback in their choices, preferences, and recognition memory than old middle-class participants although older participants had poorer memory for the feedback, suggesting social cues were implicitly processed.

Abstract

It is important to examine how a variety of emotion is connected and distinguished each other for academic and practical purposes, such as developing emotion-intervention programs. In the present study, 32 negative and 20 positive words, which Koreans were familiar with and frequently used in their daily life, were used to find the structure of Koreans’ emotion and to develop a new self-reported measurement of emotional experiences. In Study 1, 250 Korean college students and office workers (65.2% office workers; 45.6% male) reported their daily experiences of emotion by completing a emotion-word list. An exploratory factor analysis revealed that positive emotion consisted of five factors, such as “affection”, “achievement”, “amusement”, “relaxedness”, and “gratitude”, whereas negative emotion consisted of seven factors, such as “sadness”, “anger”, “anxiety”, “jealousy”, “guilty”, “boredom”, and “unclassified distress.” In Study 2, we carried out a confirmatory analysis with data obtained from 360 college students and office workers (66.7% office workers; 46.9% male). The results indicated that the 5-factor model for positive emotion and the 7-factor model for negative emotion fitted the data well. Furthermore, we examined the correlations between groups of positive and negative emotion, the frequencies of the experiences of the emotion groups, and age-and gender differences in the emotion groups. Finally, the implication for the usefulness of self-reported measurements in emotion research and the importances of secondary and derivative emotion in daily experiences of emotion are discussed.
