Abstract

Mate copying is a type of social influence whereby the desirability of a potential mate is modified as a result of being romantically chosen by an opposite-sex other. While research into mate copying typically focuses on how an individual's desirability can be raised by having a previous partner, it can also be lowered. Here we present two studies that look at how a previous partner can influence how one is romantically perceived. Study 1 presented women (N = 103) with profiles of men alongside mate-relevant information offered by the former partners of the men, and had them rate the long-term desirability of the featured men. Using a similar methodology, Study 2 (N = 284) varied who was providing the information. Study 1 found that a man's perceived desirability is lowered when a previous partner offers negative information about the relationship. Study 2 found that a man's perceived romantic desirability can be lowered depending on who his previous partner was and how long they were romantically associated for. It was concluded that relationship decisions about a prospective romantic partner are influenced by both implicit and explicit information provided by their former partners. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

3. Former Audit Partners on the Audit Committee and Internal Control Deficiencies.

Abstract

This study examines the association between internal control deficiencies (ICDs) reported under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX, U.S. House of Representatives 2002) and the presence of former audit partners on the audit committee who are affiliated (AFAPs) and unaffiliated (UFAPs) with the firm's external auditor. We find a negative association between AFAPs and UFAPs on the audit committee and ICDs. We also find results that suggest the NYSE and NASDAQ three-year "cooling-off" rule applying to AFAPs may be unwarranted and deserves further empirical and regulatory attention. Further tests suggest AFAPs do not allow management to circumvent the disclosure of ICDs when conditions appear to suggest this may be so, and that AFAPs are negatively related to performance-adjusted discretionary accruals. Collectively, we interpret these findings to suggest that AFAPs and UFAPs on the audit committee are associated with more effective monitoring of internal controls and financial reporting.

Abstract

Pojavom sve veće raširenosti društvenih mreža i dostupnosti osobnih informacija online, sve je teže za intimne partnere izbjeći izloženost informacijama nakon prekida veze. Cilj ovog rada bio je ispitati koje društvene mreže i motive sudionici navode pri online nadgledanju bivšeg partnera te ispitati doprinos dimenzija privrženosti (anksioznosti i izbjegavanja) i karakteristika prekinute veze (stupanj ulaganja u vezu, predanost vezi, zadovoljstvo vezom tekvaliteta alternativa vezi) pri objašnjenju online nadgledanja bivšeg partnera putem društvenih mreža. Provedeno je upitničko online istraživanje na uzorku od 431 osobe. Facebook i Instagram su prepoznate kao najčešće korištene društvene mreže, a najčešća motivacija je saznavanje informacija o svakodnevnom životu i romantičnom statusu bivšeg partnera. Utvrđen je značajan samostalni doprinos anksiozne privrženosti, zadovoljstva i predanosti vezi te kvalitete alternativa vezi dok izbjegavajuća privrženost i stupanj ulaganja u vezu nisu značajni prediktori. Dimenzijama privrženosti i istraživanih karakteristika prekinute veze objašnjeno je 22.5% varijance online nadgledanja bivšeg partnera. Ever since social networks started to spread and personal information became available online, it is getting harder to avoid information exposure to a former partner after relationship dissolution. The purpose of this paper was to examine which social networks do people use for internet electronic surveillance and what is their motivation behind it, and to examine the contribution of attachment dimensions (anxiety and avoidance) and characteristics of broken relationship (level of investment in the relationship, relationship commitment, relationship satisfaction and quality of relationship alternatives) in explaining online former partner surveillance via social networks. The research was conducted using an online questionnaire on a sample of 431 people. Facebook and Instagram are most used social networks and searching information about ex’s everyday life and romantic status are the most common motivation. Significant independent contribution is found for anxiety attachment, relationship commitment, relationship satisfaction and quality of relationship alternatives while level of investment in the relationship and avoidant attachment are not significant predictors. Attachment and observed relationship characteristics together account for 22.5% of explained variance in online surveillance of former partners.

Abstract

This study investigated unwanted pursuit behavior (UPB) perpetration in 631 adult ex-partners. UPB involves the unwanted pursuit of intimacy, a widespread and usually less severe form of stalking. The occurrence and various risk factors of UPB perpetration were examined, accounting for differences between male and female ex-partners and same- and opposite-gender ex-partners. Ex-partners showed on average five to six UPBs after their separation. Male and female and same- and opposite-gender ex-partners displayed an equal number of UPBs. The number of perpetrated UPBs was explained by breakup characteristics (ex-partner initiation of the breakup and rumination or cognitive preoccupation with the ex-partner), relationship characteristics (anxious attachment in the former relationship), and individual perpetrator characteristics (borderline traits and past delinquent behaviors). Rumination was a stronger predictor in female than male ex-partners. Borderline traits and anxious attachment positively predicted UPB perpetration in opposite-gender but not in same-gender ex-partners. Implications of these findings are discussed.

Abstract

This study re-examined the role of romantic relationship characteristics in unwanted pursuit behavior (UPB) perpetration. Relationship characteristics were investigated accounting for the role of breakup characteristics using data from 396 divorced adults and advanced count regressions. The main effects of former relationship characteristics (except conflict) did not contribute explained variance to the frequency of UPBs when controlling for significant breakup characteristics (initiator status and post-breakup negative affect). However, moderator analyses revealed significant effects of relationship satisfaction, alternatives, investments, and anxious attachment in interaction with initiator status and of relationship alternatives in interaction with post-breakup negative affect. These findings illustrate that the association between relationship characteristics and UPB perpetration is more complex than previously thought and are theoretically and clinically valuable.
