Abstract

While a great deal is known about the individual difference factors associated with conspiracy beliefs, much less is known about the country-level factors that shape people's willingness to believe conspiracy theories. In the current article we discuss the possibility that willingness to believe conspiracy theories might be shaped by the perception (and reality) of poor economic performance at the national level. To test this notion, we surveyed 6723 participants from 36 countries. In line with predictions, propensity to believe conspiracy theories was negatively associated with perceptions of current and future national economic vitality. Furthermore, countries with higher GDP per capita tended to have lower belief in conspiracy theories. The data suggest that conspiracy beliefs are not just caused by intrapsychic factors but are also shaped by difficult economic circumstances for which distrust might have a rational basis.

Abstract

People in economically advantaged nations tend to evaluate their life as more positive overall and report greater well-being than people in less advantaged nations. But how does positivity manifest in the daily life experiences of individuals around the world? The present study asked 15,244 college students from 62 nations, in 42 languages, to describe a situation they experienced the previous day using the Riverside Situational Q-sort (RSQ). Using expert ratings, the overall positivity of each situation was calculated for both nations and individuals. The positivity of the average situation in each nation was strongly related to the economic development of the nation as measured by the Human Development Index (HDI). For individuals’ daily experiences, the economic status of their nation also predicted the positivity of their experience, even more than their family socioeconomic status. Further analyses revealed the specific characteristics of the average situations for higher HDI nations that make their experiences more positive. Higher HDI was associated with situational experiences involving humor, socializing with others, and the potential to express emotions and fantasies. Lower HDI was associated with an increase in the presence of threats, blame, and hostility, as well as situational experiences consisting of family, religion, and money. Despite the increase in a few negative situational characteristics in lower HDI countries, the overall average experience still ranged from neutral to slightly positive, rather than negative, suggesting that greater HDI may not necessarily increase positive experiences but rather decrease negative experiences. The results illustrate how national economic status influences the lives of individuals even within a single instance of daily life, with large and powerful consequences when accumulated across individuals within each nation.

Abstract

We present experimentally derived potential curves and spin-orbit interaction functions for the strongly perturbed $A^{1}\Sigma_{u}^{+}$ and $b^{3}\Pi_{u}$ states of the cesium dimer. The results are based on data from several sources. Laser-induced fluorescence Fourier transform spectroscopy (LIF FTS) was used some time ago in the Laboratoire Aim\'{e} Cotton primarily to study the $X ^{1}\Sigma_{g}^{+}$ state. More recent work at Tsinghua University provides information from moderate resolution spectroscopy on the lowest levels of the $b^{3}\Pi_{0u}^{\pm}$ states as well as additional high resolution data. From Innsbruck University, we have precision data obtained with cold Cs$_{2}$ molecules. Recent data from Temple University was obtained using the optical-optical double resonance polarization spectroscopy technique, and finally, a group at the University of Latvia has added additional LIF FTS data. In the Hamiltonian matrix, we have used analytic potentials (the Expanded Morse Oscillator form) with both finite-difference (FD) coupled-channels and discrete variable representation (DVR) calculations of the term values. Fitted diagonal and off-diagonal spin-orbit functions are obtained and compared with {\it ab initio} results from Temple and Moscow State universities.

Abstract

Happiness is a valuable experience, and societies want their citizens to be happy. Although this societal commitment seems laudable, overly emphasizing positivity (versus negativity) may create an unattainable emotion norm that ironically compromises individual well-being. In this multi-national study (40 countries; 7443 participants), we investigate how societal pressure to be happy and not sad predicts emotional, cognitive and clinical indicators of well-being around the world, and examine how these relations differ as a function of countries' national happiness levels (collected from the World Happiness Report). Although detrimental well-being associations manifest for an average country, the strength of these relations varies across countries. People's felt societal pressure to be happy and not sad is particularly linked to poor well-being in countries with a higher World Happiness Index. Although the cross-sectional nature of our work prohibits causal conclusions, our findings highlight the correlational link between social emotion valuation and individual well-being, and suggest that high national happiness levels may have downsides for some.

Abstract

What are the things that we think matter morally, and how do societal factors influence this? To date, research has explored several individual-level and historical factors that influence the size of our 'moral circles.' There has, however, been less attention focused on which societal factors play a role. We present the first multi-national exploration of moral expansiveness-that is, the size of people's moral circles across countries. We found low generalized trust, greater perceptions of a breakdown in the social fabric of society, and greater perceived economic inequality were associated with smaller moral circles. Generalized trust also helped explain the effects of perceived inequality on lower levels of moral inclusiveness. Other inequality indicators (i.e., Gini coefficients) were, however, unrelated to moral expansiveness. These findings suggest that societal factors, especially those associated with generalized trust, may influence the size of our moral circles.

Abstract

Recent research conducted largely in the United States suggests that most people would like to change one or more of their personality traits. Yet almost no research has investigated the degree to which and in what ways volitional personality change (VPC), or individuals' active efforts toward personality change, might be common around the world. Through a custom-built website, 13,278 college student participants from 55 countries and one of a larger country (Hong Kong, S.A.R.) using 42 different languages reported whether they were currently trying to change their personality and, if so, what they were trying to change. Around the world, 60.40% of participants reported that they are currently trying to change their personalities, with the highest percentage in Thailand (81.91%) and the lowest in Kenya (21.41%). Among those who provide open-ended responses to the aspect of personality they are trying to change, the most common goals were to increase emotional stability (29.73%), conscientiousness (19.71%), extraversion (15.94%), and agreeableness (13.53%). In line with previous research, students who are trying to change any personality trait tend to have relatively low levels of emotional stability and happiness. Moreover, those with relatively low levels of socially desirable traits reported attempting to increase what they lacked. These principal findings were generalizable around the world.

Abstract

Objective: The current exploratory study sought to examine dispositional optimism, or the general expectation for positive outcomes, around the world. Method: Dispositional optimism and possible correlates were assessed across 61 countries (N = 15,185; mean age = 21.92; 77% female). Mean-level differences in optimism were computed along with their relationships with individual and country-level variables. Results: Worldwide, mean optimism levels were above the midpoint of the scale. Perhaps surprisingly, country-level optimism was negatively related to gross domestic product per capita, population density, and democratic norms and positively related to income inequality and perceived corruption. However, country-level optimism was positively related to projected economic improvement. Individual-level optimism was positively related to individual well-being within every country, although this relationship was less strong in countries with challenging economic and social circumstances. Conclusions: While individuals around the world are generally optimistic, societal characteristics appear to affect the degree to which their optimism is associated with psychological well-being, sometimes in seemingly anomalous ways.

Abstract

What does it mean to be happy? The vast majority of cross-cultural studies on happiness have employed a Western-origin, or "WEIRD" measure of happiness that conceptualizes it as a self-centered (or "independent"), high-arousal emotion. However, research from Eastern cultures, particularly Japan, conceptualizes happiness as including an interpersonal aspect emphasizing harmony and connectedness to others. Following a combined emicetic approach (Cheung, van de Vijver & Leong, 2011), we assessed the cross-cultural applicability of a measure of independent happiness developed in the US (Subjective Happiness Scale; Lyubomirsky & Lepper, 1999) and a measure of interdependent happiness developed in Japan (Interdependent Happiness Scale; Hitokoto & Uchida, 2015), with data from 63 countries representing 7 sociocultural regions. Results indicate that the schema of independent happiness was more coherent in more WEIRD countries. In contrast, the coherence of interdependent happiness was unrelated to a country's "WEIRD-ness." Reliabilities of both happiness measures were lowest in African and Middle Eastern countries, suggesting these two conceptualizations of happiness may not be globally comprehensive. Overall, while the two measures had many similar correlates and properties, the self-focused concept of independent happiness is "WEIRD-er" than interdependent happiness, suggesting cross-cultural researchers should attend to both conceptualizations.

Abstract

Objective: The current study seeks to replicate and extend principal findings reported in The World at 7:00, a project that examined the psychological experience of situations in 20 countries. Method: Data were collected from participants in 62 countries (N = 15,318), recruited from universities by local collaborators to complete the study via a custom-built website using 42 languages. Results: Several findings of the previous study were replicated. The average reported situational experience around the world was mildly positive. The same countries tended to be most alike in reported situational experience (r =.60) across the two studies, among the countries included in both. As in the previous study, the homogeneity of reported situational experience was significantly greater within than between countries, although the difference was small. The previously reported exploratory finding that negative aspects of situations varied more across countries than positive aspects did not replicate. Correlations between aspects of reported situational experience and country-level average value scores, personality, and demographic variables were largely similar between the two studies. Conclusion: The findings underscore the importance of cross-cultural situational research and the need to replicate its results, and highlight the complex interplay of culture and situational experience.

Abstract

What does it mean to be happy? The vast majority of cross-cultural studies on happiness have employed a Western-origin, or “WEIRD” measure of happiness that conceptualizes it as a self-centered (or “independent”), high-arousal emotion. However, research from Eastern cultures, particularly Japan, conceptualizes happiness as including an interpersonal aspect emphasizing harmony and connectedness to others. Following a combined emic-etic approach (Cheung, van de Vijver & Leong, 2011), we assessed the cross-cultural applicability of a measure of independent happiness developed in the US (Subjective Happiness Scale; Lyubomirsky & Lepper, 1999) and a measure of interdependent happiness developed in Japan (Interdependent Happiness Scale; Hitokoto & Uchida, 2015), with data from 63 countries representing 7 sociocultural regions. Results indicate that the schema of independent happiness was more coherent in more WEIRD countries. In contrast, the coherence of interdependent happiness was unrelated to a country’s “WEIRD-ness.” Reliabilities of both happiness measures were lowest in African and Middle Eastern countries, suggesting these two conceptualizations of happiness may not be globally comprehensive. Overall, while the two measures had many similar correlates and properties, the self-focused concept of independent happiness is “WEIRD-er” than interdependent happiness, suggesting cross-cultural researchers should attend to both conceptualizations.

Abstract

People cooperate every day in ways that range from largescale contributions that mitigate climate change to simple actions such as leaving another individual with choice – known as social mindfulness. It is not yet clear whether and how these complex and more simple forms of cooperation relate. Prior work has found that countries with individuals who made more socially mindful choices were linked to a higher country environmental performance – a proxy for complex cooperation. Here we replicated this initial finding in 41 samples around the world, demonstrating the robustness of the association between social mindfulness and environmental performance, and substantially built on it to show this relationship extended to a wide range of complex cooperative indices, tied closely to many current societal issues. We found that greater social mindfulness expressed by an individual was related to living in countries with more social capital, more community participation and reduced prejudice towards immigrants. Our findings speak to the symbiotic relationship between simple and more complex forms of cooperation in societies.

Abstract

Author(s): Baranski, Erica; Sweeny, Kate; Gardiner, Gwendolyn; Members of the International Situations Project; Funder, David C | Abstract: ObjectiveThe current exploratory study sought to examine dispositional optimism, or the general expectation for positive outcomes, around the world.MethodDispositional optimism and possible correlates were assessed across 61 countries (Nn=n15,185; mean agen=n21.92; 77% female). Mean-level differences in optimism were computed along with their relationships with individual and country-level variables.ResultsWorldwide, mean optimism levels were above the midpoint of the scale. Perhaps surprisingly, country-level optimism was negatively related to gross domestic product per capita, population density, and democratic norms and positively related to income inequality and perceived corruption. However, country-level optimism was positively related to projected economic improvement. Individual-level optimism was positively related to individual well-being within every country, although this relationship was less strong in countries with challenging economic and social circumstances.ConclusionsWhile individuals around the world are generally optimistic, societal characteristics appear to affect the degree to which their optimism is associated with psychological well-being, sometimes in seemingly anomalous ways.

Abstract

Background: Ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) is the only option available to preserve fertility in prepubertal females with neuroblastoma (NB), a childhood solid tumor that can spread to the ovaries, with a risk of reintroducingmalignant cells after an ovarian graft. Procedure: We set out to determine whether the analysis of TH (tyrosine hydroxylase), PHOX2B (paired-like homeobox 2b), and DCX (doublecortin) transcripts using quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) could be used to detect NB contamination in ovarian tissue. Analyses were performed on benign ovarian tissue from 20 healthy women between November 2014 and September 2015 at the University Hospital of Clermont-Ferrand. Pericystic benign ovarian tissues were collected and contaminated with increasing numbers of human NB cells (cell lines IMR-32 and SK-N-SH) before detection using RT-qPCR. Results: TH and DCX transcripts were detected in uncontaminated ovarian tissue from all the donors, hampering the detection of small numbers of tumor cells. By contrast, PHOX2B was not detected in any uncontaminated ovarian fragment. PHOX2B levels were significantly increased from 10 NB cells. Our study is the first to evaluate minimal residual disease detection using NB mRNAs in human ovarian tissue. Only PHOX2B was a reliable marker of NB cells contaminating ovarian tissue. Conclusions: These results are encouraging and offer hope in the near future for grafting ovarian tissue in women who survive cancer, whose fertility has been jeopardized by treatment, and who could benefit fromOTC without oncological risk.

Abstract

We report calculations of the spin-orbit energy as a function of internuclear distance R within the b ³Π[sub u] state of K[sub 2], and between the b ³π[sub 0u][ and A ¹σ[sup +, sub u] states, together with new spectroscopic data on the b state and previously unpublished data on the A state. Both the new data and previous data are fitted to Hamiltonian parameters using the discrete variable representation (DVR) method. The DVR matrix includes nonrelativistic Born-Oppenheimer potentials and spin-orbit interactions, which are scaled to match the known asymptotic limits and to best fit the experimental data. We report fitted Dunham coefficients that yield the A and b state potentials by means of the RydbergKlein-Rees method. These parameters thus take into account second-order spin-orbit perturbation shifts (from the vibrational levels of these two states) which are normally not considered in band-by-band fits to spectroscopic data.

Abstract

This study presents the derivation of an accurate potential energy curve for the ground electronic state of the Cs[sub 2] molecule. High resolution laser induced emission spectra data involving vibrational levels of the ground X ¹Σ[sup +][sub g] state up to υ'= 135 (16 900 wave numbers) have been determined. The ground state potential energy curve is constructed by combining the inverted perturbation approach for internuclear distances up to 11 Å, with an analytical expression for longer internuclear distances. This potential curve allows an improved derivation of the dissociation energy and of the Coulombic parameters governing the Cs(6s)+Cs(6s) interaction in the electronic ground state, compared with values derived either by calculations or by recent photoassociative spectroscopy measurements. The main constants are C[sub 6]=6836 (± 100) a.u.=32.945 (±0.49)× 10[sup 6] cm[sup -1] Å[sup 6], and D[sub e]=3649.88 (± 0.45) cm[sup -1]. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

More than 10 000 resolved rotational lines in the (2) 1Πu(C)–(1) 1Σ+g(X), (2) 1Πu(C)–(1) 1Πg, (2) 1Πu(C)–(2) 1Σ+g, (1) 1Πu(B)–(1) 1Σ+g(X), and (1) 1Σ+u(A)–(1) 1Σ+g(X) transitions of Rb2 have been accurately measured with the technique of Fourier-transform spectroscopy. The wave numbers of all the rotational lines were determined with an accuracy better than 5×10-3 cm-1. A thorough and simultaneous analysis of all the measured data yields molecular constants, potential-energy curves, and dissociation energies for five different excited electronic states. The observation of highly excited vibrational levels in the fundamental state (v‘=112) leads to the value of the energy of dissociation: 3994.4±0.4 cm-1. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The fluorescence spectra of the two electronic systems (3) 1Πu→X 1∑g appearing in the visible range and (3) 1Πu→(2) 1∑g in the near infrared has been observed using an argon ion laser to excite Cs2 molecules. Fluorescence lines were accurately measured with a high resolution Fourier transform interferometer. Accurate molecular constants and potential energy curves have been determined for the (3) 1Πu electronic state. The main constants are as follows: Te(cm-1) =20 684.669; we(cm-1) =30.398; Be(cm-1) =0.009 12; Re(Å) =5.2735. Possible correlation with the atomic limit 7 2P1/2+6 2S1/2 yields a dissociation energy De=4730±1 cm-1. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

More than 8000 completely resolved rotational lines in the E 1Σ+u →X 1Σ+g, E 1Σ+g →(2)1Σ+g, E 1Σ+u →(1)1Πg, E 1Σ+u →(3)1Σ+g, D 1Σ+u →(2)1Σ+g, C 1Σu →X 1Σ+g, and D 1Σ+u →X 1Σ+g transitions of Cs2 have been accurately measured with the techniques of Fourier transform spectroscopy, Doppler-free polarization spectroscopy, and optical optical double resonance. The wave numbers of all these rotational lines were determined with an accuracy of 1 to 5×10-3 cm-1. A thorough and simultaneous analysis of all the measured data yields molecular constants, potential energy curves, and dissociation energies for six different excited electronic states of the Cs2 molecule.

Abstract

The NaLi 3 1Σ+(C)→2 1Σ+(A) electronic transition has been observed in the infrared region after laser excitation of the 1 1Π(B) electronic state and subsequent collisional energy transfer between the 1 1Π(B) and 3 1Σ+(C) electronic states. The spectra were recorded at high resolution by Fourier-transform spectroscopy. Thirteen vibrational bands were analyzed, providing detailed information for the 2 1Σ+(A) (v=0,...,4) and 3 1Σ+(C) (v=5,...,13) vibrational levels. Rotational perturbations have been observed in the spectra. The nearly 1200 observed lines belonging to 1 1Π(B)→2 1Σ+(A) and 3 1Σ+(C)→2 1Σ+(A) transitions have been assigned and reduced to molecular constants in a linear least-squares fit. Perturbations observed in the upper electronic states have been reduced using a nonlinear least-squares fit to a 1Σ∼1Π effective Hamiltonian matrix model. Deperturbed molecular constants and perturbation parameters are obtained for the 1 1Π(B) electronic state (v=0,...,6) and the 3 1Σ+(C) electronic state (v=5,...,13) levels. Propensity rules concerning the energy gaps and the conservation of angular momentum, during the energy transfer, are inferred from the intensity distributions of anomalous lines.

Abstract

Resolved fluorescence from the K2 43 Σ+g state to the a3 Σ+u state has been measured by the perturbation-facilitated optical–optical double resonance (PFOODR) technique. Data have been fit to an improved set of molecular constants for the a3 Σ+u state. In particular, the new Te value for this state has been determined as 4197.935±0.047 cm-1, nearly 1.8 cm-1 higher than previously reported. By combining the new results for the a3 Σ+u state and the recent results for the ground X1 Σ+g state [J. Chem. Phys. 103, 3350 (1995)], we report in this paper an improved analysis of long-range dispersion and exchange interactions between two K atoms and of the X1 Σ+g and a3 Σ+u state dissociation energies De of 4450.674±0.072 cm-1 and 252.74±0.12 cm-1, respectively. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

46. Getting new staff to stay: the mediating role of organizational identification

Abstract

Newcomer turnover is a major cost to organizations, and the quality of new employees' experiences in the first few months is critical in determining whether they decide to stay or leave. In a study that focused on the first stage of newcomer socialization, we investigate the impact of perceptions of social validation from the team and the team leader, and perceived fairness of treatment on newcomers' identification with their work team and the organization, specifically measuring the group self-investment components of identification. The mediating role of these levels of group self-investment and of the imbalance (i.e. difference) between levels of self-investment on turnover intentions was also tested. New staff (N=569) joining a large public-sector organization completed a questionnaire about their socialization experiences in their first 6 months of their employment. Structural equation modelling revealed that social validation by the team and team leaders, and fairness of treatment, predict increased investment with the organization and with the team. Organizational-level self-investment and an imbalance in favour of investment with the organization over that of the team mediated decreases in turnover intentions. We conclude that organizations should provide newcomers with validation that promotes identification with their organization during this critical stage of socialization.
