Should Global Brands Engage in Brand Activism?

Brand activism, taking a stance on current and divisive sociopolitical issues, has emerged as a novel means of expressing a brand's values and engaging with the firm's customer base. Yet, globally, companies lack conclusive guidance on the consequences of taking a stance. This research asks a novel question: Should global brands engage in activism? Using varying activism manipulations (e.g., statements and actions), five studies reveal consumer preference for activist global brands. More importantly, guided by schema change theory, the authors find that the positive brand activism effect is particularly strong for global brands associated with negative brand origin, irrespective of consumers’ prior attitude valence. However, brands with positive origin associations benefit from activism only when consumers’ prior attitude valence is in alignment. The authors also identify the mediating effects of self–brand connection, which has downstream consequences for behavioral intentions. Taken together, this work sheds new light on consumer perceptions of brand activism across cultures, elucidates why consumers prefer global brands that engage in activism, and offers actionable insights for global brand managers.

Self and mother referential processing in phonological false memory

ABSTRACT The current study used phonological DRM and self-reference paradigms to examine whether phonological false memory was affected by self and mother referential processing. In Experiment 1 and 2, words in the Deese–Roediger–McDermott lists were presented to participants with their own name, their mother’s name or “Lu Xun”. Words were presented with their own name and “Lu Xun” in Experiment 3 to compare the effect of self and other referential processing specifically. The results revealed that true recognition rates were not different between self-reference and mother-reference conditions and both were higher than the other-reference condition; there were no significant differences in false recognition rates among the self-reference, mother-reference and other-reference conditions. The findings are discussed in terms of theories of the self and mother reference effects and phonological false memory.

Overwork and Subjective Well-Being: The Moderating Effect of Self- Perceived Socio-Economic Status

Overwork and Subjective Well-Being: The Moderating Effect of Self- Perceived Socio-Economic Status

High- and low-social-anxiety individuals process the outcomes of ability comparisons differently: an event-related potential study.

Individuals engage in upward or downward comparisons with superiors or inferiors, respectively. Social comparison is associated with social anxiety. Utilizing event-related potentials, we investigated how individuals with high social anxiety (HSA) and low social anxiety (LSA) evaluate self- versus other-outcomes in upward and downward comparison contexts. We found significant valence effects of self- or other-outcomes on feedback-related negativity (FRN) and P300 for both groups, with loss inducing larger FRN and smaller P300 than gain. In the early stage, the valence effect of other-outcomes was significant when LSA participants gained money, but not when they lost money, revealing a social comparison effect on FRN. Conversely, this valence effect was significant whether HSA participants gained or lost money. At the late stage, the valence effect of other-outcomes was significant when HSA or LSA participants gained money but not when they lost, revealing social comparison effects on the P300. Notably, only the social comparison effect in the LSA group was further moderated by comparison direction. These findings suggest that LSA participants engaged in social comparison throughout all evaluation stages, whereas HSA participants started at the late stage. Moreover, LSA participants were more sensitive to different comparison directions in the late stage.

The interactive effects of self- and parent-referenced career goal discrepancies on young adults’ career indecision

AbstractWe tested a model in which discrepancy with parents’ career goals moderated the indirect path from young adults’ self-perceived career goal discrepancy to career indecision via negative emotions (regret and distress) and self-regulatory capacity. We surveyed 236 young adults (MAge = 21.77 years; 71.2% female), finding that parent discrepancy strengthened the positive relationships between self-discrepancy and career regret and self-regulatory depletion, but not distress. However, career distress fully explained the self-discrepancy–career indecision relationship, not moderated by parent-discrepancy. Overall, our model explained 70% of the variance in indecision. This has implications for counsellors to assist young adults in managing discrepancy-related distress and indecision.

Effects of self- and experimenter-administered cocaine on subsequent ethanol drinking in rhesus monkeys

BackgroundOne possible reason for the lack of FDA-approved pharmacotherapies to treat cocaine use disorder (CUD) is that, although cocaine is typically used in combination with alcohol, it is studied in isolation in preclinical studies. A better understanding of the cocaine-alcohol interactions that promote polysubstance use (PSU) will improve animal models of CUD and hasten pharmacotherapy development. We used a rhesus monkey model of cocaine-alcohol PSU to investigate one possible mechanism: that alcohol is used to mitigate negative effects associated with termination of cocaine use. MethodsIn 6 adult male rhesus monkeys, the relationship between self-administered cocaine intake and oral ethanol intake 2hours later was examined during self-administration of cocaine (0.0003–0.3mg/kg per injection, i.v.) under a fixed-ratio 30 schedule (FR30) or a progressive-ratio (PR) schedule. Next, ethanol consumption was measured 0–120minutes after experimenter-administered cocaine (0.3–1.7mg/kg, i.v.). ResultsSelf-administered cocaine intake under both FR30 and PR schedules was unrelated to oral ethanol intakes 2hours later. When cocaine was administered non-contingently, cocaine decreased ethanol intake as well as intake of a non-alcoholic solution in monkeys who never consumed ethanol (n=4) in a time- and dose-dependent manner. ConclusionsTaken together, the results do not provide evidence for cocaine-induced increases in ethanol consumption. By extension, the results do not support the hypothesis that cocaine users drink alcohol to counteract negative effects that occur after terminating use. This finding implies either that such effects do not exist or that such effects exist but are unaffected by ethanol.

Organizational ethical climate: influence on employee meaning and well-being

PurposeThe organizational environment can influence how employees experience meaningfulness. This study examines the mediating role of meaningful work between organizational ethical climates and the affective well-being of employees. We also test for the moderating role of self-regulatory traits in this relationship.Design/methodology/approachPartial least squares – structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was employed to test the hypothesized model using responses from 430 working professionals. Recommended robustness checks were conducted before model assessment and hypotheses testing.FindingsThe findings suggest that a caring ethical climate is positively related to affective well-being. Meaningful work dimensions, i.e. unity with others, inspiration and balancing tensions partially mediate the relationship between the caring climate and affective well-being. Integrity with self and balancing tensions fully mediate the negative effect of an instrumental climate on affective well-being. Positive mediation of unity with others and negative mediation of reality were observed between a law and code climate and affective well-being. Moderating effects of self- and other-orientation and self-monitoring were also observed.Research limitations/implicationsThe study presents significant insights, however, a few limitations must be discussed. The study has relied on cross-sectional data which may be addressed in future studies.Practical implicationsIn times when organizations are spending in large amounts in ensuring meaningful work and employee well-being, this study suggests internal mechanisms that can bring positive impact in employees' work life. Leaders should assess how employees perceive the ethical climate of the organization in order to provide better meaningful work opportunities to the workforce.Social implicationsHaving meaningful work and experiencing affective well-being are significant for a collective betterment of society. Meaningful work encourages individuals in identifying how their work if affecting the society. A affectively happy workforce is essential in building a mentally healthy society.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the investigation of organizational factors that help employees find meaning in their work. Based on ethical climate theory, this study highlights how organizations can redesign and modify their ethical climates to provide opportunities for employees to experience meaningful work and improve their affective well-being.

Complex Intersections Between Adverse Childhood Experiences and Negative Life Events Impact the Phenome of Major Depression.

There is evidence that adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and negative life events (NLEs) are associated with major depression (MDD). To determine whether ACEs affect all features of mild MDD, including suicidal tendencies, brooding, neuroticism, insomnia, cognitive deficits, severity of depression and anxiety, and cognitive deficits, and whether NLEs mediate these effects. This study examines a cohort of 118 academic students, namely 74 students who satisfied the DSM-5-TR criteria for MDD and 44 normal control students. We assessed brooding, neuroticism, suicidal ideation and attempts, and the severity of depression, anxiety, insomnia, and the Stroop tests. One validated factor could be extracted from brooding, neuroticism, current suicidal behaviors, and the severity of depression, anxiety, and insomnia, labeled the phenome of depression. A large part of the variance in the phenome of depression (55.0%) was explained by the combined effects of self-, relationships, and academic-related NLEs in conjunction with ACEs, including family dysfunction and abuse and neglect (both physical and emotional). The latter ACEs significantly interacted (moderating effect) with NLEs to impact the depression phenome. Although sexual abuse did not have direct effects on the phenome, its effects were mediated by NLEs. We discovered that increased sexual abuse, physical and emotional abuse and neglect, and ACEs related to family dysfunction predicted 22.5% of the variance in NLEs. Up to 18.5% of the variance in the Stroop test scores was explained by sexual abuse and the phenome of depression. The latter mediated the effects of NLEs and abuse, neglect, and family dysfunction on the Stroop test scores. Complex intersections between ACEs and NLEs impact the phenome of depression, which comprises neuroticism, brooding, suicidal tendencies, and the severity of insomnia, anxiety, and depression, while sexual abuse together with other ACEs and NLEs may impact cognitive interference inhibition.

Effects of Self and Peer Video Modeling on Textual Responses in Children with ASD

A videomodelação consiste na exibição de vídeos retratando um comportamento para instalar ou modificar o respectivo comportamento do espectador, que, após assistir ao vídeo, é solicitado a imitá-lo. O presente estudo comparou videomodelação por si mesmo e videomodelação por par para o ensino de respostas textuais sob controle de consoantes do alfabeto português em três crianças diagnosticadas com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA). Para isso, foi utilizado um delineamento misto de linha de base múltipla entre participantes e de tratamentos alternados. Alguns cuidados no controle experimental foram acrescentados em relação a trabalhos anteriores: as consequências para a emissão de respostas corretas e incorretas nas condições de linha de base e de tratamento foram idênticas; os pares utilizados foram fisicamente semelhantes aos participantes; e incluiu-se a avaliação de preferência dos participantes pelos vídeos. Os resultados indicaram efeitos semelhantes do ensino em ambas as condições de videomodelação, sendo que dois dos três participantes aprenderam igualmente nas duas condições e um participante atingiu o critério apenas na videomodelação por par. As evidências sugerem efeitos positivos advindos do tipo de intervenção avaliado e a necessidade de futuras pesquisas avaliarem o ensino de outras habilidades.

Evaluation Of Self-Efficacy, Self-Management and Achievement Motivation from The Perspective of Classroom Management

In this study, the effect of pre–service teachers' self–efficacy and self–management on their success motivation were discussed and evaluated from the classroom management perspective. The population of the study was the MCBU Pedagogical Formation Certificate Program in the 2022 – 2023 education year and 427 pre–service teachers participated as the sample of the study. SPSS 25 packet program was used for the analyses of the data. Pre–service teachers' self–efficacy, self – management and achievement motivation levels were examined with the help of descriptive statistics by using minimum, maximum, arithmetic mean, and standard deviation values. The effect of their self–efficacy perceptions and their self – management behaviors were separately analyzed with simple linear regression. The holistic effect of self–efficacy and self–management on achievement motivation was analyzed with multiple linear regression. According to the findings their self–efficacy, self – management and achievement motivation levels were observed at high levels. Also, the effect of self–efficacy and self–management on achievement motivation were found both separately and together. While self–efficacy and self – management affect achievement motivation at a normal level, they are affecting more strongly both together.
