    Abstract ( 1851 )   PDF (708KB) ( 6047 )  
    Stressors are stimulus or variation cause to stress response, and the stress has an adverse effect on the sleep quality. Referring to the stressors that affect sleep quality, most of recent researches mainly focus on the following five traditional stress dimensions: family, academic, work, social-culture and disease. The relationship between these stressors and sleep quality is bidirectional and complex, direct and indirect, which could be changed by the duration and the intensity. In addition, the individual difference is reflected by the mediators and moderators.

    A Modification of Implicit Association Test: The Brief Implicit Association Test

    JIN Zheng

    2010, 18 (10):  1554-1558. 
    Abstract ( 1822 )   PDF (652KB) ( 1929 )  
    The Brief Implicit Association Test (BIAT) is composed of two blocks of trials with the same four categories and same response types as the standard Implicit Association Test (IAT). Some studies preliminarily proved that the BIAT can be successfully applied to the attitude, identity and stereotype measures. The psychometric properties of BIAT attitudes measures and BIAT identities measures depend on choice of focal categories. Based on the IAT, BIAT stereotype measures may have distinct variants that differ as a function of the focal category.

    LING Bin;DUAN Jin-Yun;ZHU Yue-Long
    2010, 18 (10):  1580-1589. 
    Abstract ( 1664 )   PDF (683KB) ( 5411 )  
    Psychological safety, a multilevel cognitive construct, refers to individuals’ perceptions of being able to show and employ one’s self without fear of negative consequences to self-image, status or career. It is also defined as employees’ shared belief that taking interpersonal risks are safe in their dyadic relationships, work teams and organizations. A set of predictors–consisting of personal features, quality of relationships, group dynamics and structure, as well as leadership style–have shown to be positively related to psychological safety, which in turn facilitates learning behavior, voice behavior, creativity and innovation, employee engagement, and job performance. Future studies about the structure and measurement of psychological safety, antecedents and so on are discussed further.

    ZHU Qian;MA Chao;JIE Shui-Ping
    2010, 18 (10):  1606-1611. 
    Abstract ( 1320 )   PDF (689KB) ( 1687 )  
    Shocks are particular, jarring events that initiate the psychological decision processes involved in quitting a job. To reveal the shock influence on voluntary turnover, researchers analyzed the relationships between different shock dimensions, and explored the associations between shock dimensions and decision paths. The results showed a significant shock effect on voluntary turnover. However, further researches about shocks should be taken forward at least in four aspects, such as the definition, the approaches, the researching objects and the study for indigenization.

    The Arguments for the Congruence of Values and Behavior
    CHEN Ying;ZHENG Yong
    2010, 18 (10):  1612-1619. 
    Abstract ( 1723 )   PDF (655KB) ( 4244 )  
    One recurring theme in personality psychology is the argument on the congruence between values and behaviors. The following modes consist in relevant researches: values serve as direct predictors of behaviors; various mediator and moderator influence the relationship between values and behaviors, such as life styles, attitude or personality. The goal hierarchy model suggests that specific objectives connect values to behaviors; while the construal level theory puts forward that the effect of values on behaviors depends on psychological distance; the self-worth orientation theory believes that self-worth systems direct behaviors as well; from the perspective of the neo-socioanalytic model, value is one of the personality domains, it influences behaviors with other domains. The further researches would focus on the application of value lexicon and the relationship between value conflicting and behavior decision, some investigations on the Chinese cultural background and the establishing of specific model.

    ZHANG Qi;Wang Er-Ping
    2010, 18 (10):  1620-1627. 
    Abstract ( 1186 )   PDF (660KB) ( 1921 )  
    The story of modern society is about large numbers of citizens cooperating with each other, trying to maximize the welfare of their community and the broader society of which they are part. This type of problem is known as social dilemma, which becomes a focus of social psychology. With the development of group theory, researchers pay more attention to the collective solutions to social dilemma rather than individual solutions, concerning the effects of authorities to cooperation. Trust in authority and fairness are two important psychological antecedents of attitudes and cooperative behaviors. Political trust can be seen as one form of trust in authority in the social context. Future researches should try to investigate the effects and mechanism of political trust in laboratory and further explore the mediator role of justices in the relation between political trust and attitudes as well as cooperative behaviors.

    TIAN Xiao-Ming;DUAN Jin-Yun;Fu Qiang
    2010, 18 (10):  1628-1635. 
    Abstract ( 1275 )   PDF (684KB) ( 2114 )  
    Drawing on the idea of the Social Identity Theory, the group engagement model (GEM) developed both the group value model and the relational model. GEM purported that procedural justice affects people’s mind and behavior through social identity perception. GEM generalized four components of procedural justice, differentiated pride and respect, and told us the different effects on behavioral engagement which brought by resource judgements and identity judgements. Generally, GEM is helpfull to explain the intra-group behavior, it also expands the vision of the Social Identity Theory. However, more researches are needed for further validation and consummation for various person and under different cultures.

    LIU Teng-Fei;XU Fu-Ming;ZHANG Jun-Wei;JIANG Duo;CHEN Xue-Ling
    2010, 18 (10):  1636-1643. 
    Abstract ( 1581 )   PDF (672KB) ( 3671 )  
    Status quo bias refers to the phenoomenon that people tend to do nothing or maintain their current or previous decisions in decision making. Status quo bias includes endogenously determined status quo bias and exogenously determined status quo bias. There are two ways for researchers to interpret this phenomenon: loss aversion and regret theory. The factors to influence status quo bias include such as follows: number of alternatives, emotion, traits of the decision maker as his cognition and motivation. Status quo bias is conducive to understanding everyday decision behaviors and is valuable for such practical areas as sale, management and public policies. Further deep exploration is needed to clarify the relationship between status quo bias and other decision phenomena, to deepen our understanding of its original roots and at last to expand its applied values.

    A Review on Terrorism from the Perspective of Terrorists
    JIA Feng-Xiang;SHI Wei
    2010, 18 (10):  1660-1667. 
    Abstract ( 1985 )   PDF (653KB) ( 3834 )  
    There is still no consensus about the definition of terrorism. In this article, terrorism refers to the acts of any individual, group or organization in order to achieve certain political, religious or social purposes, illegally using violence or other coercive means against innocent people with the intention of catching the attention of the target objects or the public and creating an atmosphere of terror. The formation and development of terrorism can be explained by Syndrome Model, Narcissism-Aggression Model, Frustration-Aggression Model, Tool Model, Social Context Model and other integrated models. The authors reviewed these models and proposed several psychological strategies for terrorism prevention. In psychology, the empirical research on terrorism is relatively small, and mostly focuses on the description and interpretation. So the research on the prediction and application of terrorism need to be further developed.

    The Division of Family Work in China and Europe:
    On the Role of Culture
    Zhiyun Wang;Dominik Schoebi;and Meinrad Perrez
    2010, 18 (10):  1668-1678. 
    Abstract ( 1598 )   PDF (694KB) ( 1169 )  
    The current article aims to understand how culture affects couple’s allocation of domestic chores in China and Europe. First, we review previous studies on Chinese couple’s family work organization in comparison to data from European societies. Second, we examine the applicability of major theoretical models about the division of family work on the situation in China. While we conclude that cross-cultural differences in the division of family work exist, these differences can only partially be explained using these theoretical approaches. Thirdly, we expand the theoretical framework adopted by most cross-culture family studies by providing a discussion of traditional Confucian ideology and third party support with family work. We discuss finally the possible implications of these values and support for the division of family work across cultures.
