Abstract

Investigative directors have controlling power on investigative actions. However, it is shown that distortions are problematic in paper records. Therefore, this study examined the effect of distortions of paper records on investigative directors’ decision making, and the methods and frequency of the control of the directors. In the study 1, total 90 investigative directors reviewed one of the three versions of paper records (30 ‘original’, 30 ‘committed’, 30 ‘omitted’), then the directors were asked to evaluate the suspect’s veracity. The Study 2 surveyed 63 directors including how and how often they examine the authenticity of paper records. The results showed that (1) directors in the distorted records groups evaluated the suspect more deceptive than those in the original record group did. (2) The omitted paper record also had significant effect on the directors’ evaluations about the suspect’s veracity. (3) Investigative directors rarely checked the authenticity of the documents by watching video records or participating in interrogation procedures. In the conclusion, ‘A Model of Learning Effect and Selective Reinforcement Effect in Distortions of Paper Records’ and improvement methods were suggested based on the results of the studies, and implications and limitations of the study were disscussed.

Abstract

The purpose of this experimental research is to classifying the representative emotion words based on similarity and investigating the differentiation patterns of emotional dimensions inherited in the words so as to investigate the dimensions. 24 elementary school students, 24 middle school students and 24 high school students, 24 university students participated in classifying the representative emotion words based on similarity and investigating the differentiation patterns of emotional dimensions inherited in the words so as to investigate the dimensions. As a result, the emotional dimension of the elementary school students consisted of 1 dimension, which was called ‘pleasure-displeasure.’ The middle school students’ emotions had 2 dimensions: first was named ‘pleasure-displeasure,’ the second as ‘activation-inactivation third as ‘self-orientation and other- orientation.’ Lastly, the high school students’ emotions comprised 3 dimensions: the first was called ‘pleasure-displeasure,’ the second ‘activation-inactivation’ and the third ‘self-orientation and other-orientation,’ which match with the adults’ 3-dimention emotional structure. To provides important implications in that the interaction among various factors was revealed by investigating emotional development through differentiation of the dimensions inherent in emotion words.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the mediating effect of negative emotion and behavior expression and the moderated mediating effect of relationship length in the link between adult attachment and relationship satisfaction. We hypothesized that attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance would have negative effects on relationship satisfaction through negative emotion and behavior expression and this mediating effect would be moderated by relationship length. Using the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM) we analyzed 274 heterosexual dating couple data. We found that woman’s attachment anxiety predicted her own and her partner’s relationship dissatisfaction through her negative emotion and behavior expression. Man’s attachment anxiety predicted his partner’s relationship dissatisfaction through her negative emotion and behavior expression. Furthermore, man’s mediating effect of negative emotion and behavior expression in the link between own attachment anxiety and own relationship satisfaction was moderated by relationship length. That is, the mediating effect of negative emotion and behavior expression was stronger as he stayed longer in his relationship. This study found that adult attachment as a trait and relationship schema can explain couple’s relationship satisfaction through negative emotion and behavioral expression, and how relationship length moderated this mediating effect.

Abstract

We hypothesized that the relationship between social class and the tendency of engaging in unethical behavior would be moderated by gender and the beneficiary of the behavior. In order to test the hypothesis, 250 participants (129 women) were randomly assigned either self-beneficiary or other-beneficiary condition and read unethical behavior scenarios. They were asked the extent to which they would engage in unethical behaviors and their subjective social class. According to the results, social class × gender × beneficiary interaction was statistically significant. Specifically, for male participants social class × beneficiary interaction was statistically significant. That is, upper-class men were more likely to behave unethically for themselves than others. However, for female participants the results showed no such difference. That is, upper-class women did not prefer self-beneficial unethical behaviors to other-beneficial unethical behaviors. The finding suggested that gender could be a critical factor with regard to social cognition and results of previous research about social class and social cognition could be moderated by gender.

Abstract

Marriage, as a major turning point in life, tends to place spouse and children at the center of individuals’ social networks. By focusing on relational motives of married individuals (i.e., mate retention, parenting), we examined their association with relationship satisfaction and the potential moderating role of neuroticism. Studies have shown that strong motives can be maladaptive when actual-ideal discrepancies generate negative emotions. In line with this view, neuroticism, characterized by heightened sensitivity and reactivity to negative social cues, may reduce the benefits that come from strong relational motives. As predicted, two studies demonstrated that individuals’ mate retention (Study 1) and parenting (Study 2) motives positively predicted their relationship satisfaction, only among the less neurotic. Our findings suggest that hedonic benefits of relational motives may be contingent on the level of neuroticism.
