Interpersonal and Metapersonal Self-Regulation of Al-Quran Memorizer Santri at Elementary School Level

This article aims to examine the interpersonal and metapersonal self-regulation of students memorizing the Qur'an at the elementary school level. This research adopted a phenomenological case study research design. Six students, five parents of students, and one teacher were recruited for data collection. Interviews, observation and documentation were conducted to obtain data. The results report that students' interpersonal self-regulation was carried out by preaching to their peers by reprimanding their friends or siblings. They try to regulate themselves to be able to harmonize their thoughts, words, and actions in the form of a polite attitude. They also strive to manage the existing environment in order to support the achievement of the goals that have been set. Environmental management is an effort to invite other friends to use their free time to use memorization. The metapersonal self-regulation is conducted by seeking the pleasure of Allah. However, the students who memorize the Qur'an at the elementary school level at the Tadabbur Al-Qur'an House have not been able to feel certain mental activities that can facilitate the process of memorizing the Qur'an. Among the inner activities that are carried out are certain prayers, especially to get help in the hereafter.

Divided When Crisis Comes: How Perceived Self-Partner Disagreements over COVID-19 Prevention Measures Relate to Employee Work Outcomes at Home.

As a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, our societies went into a lockdown model and many organizations required or permitted their employees to work from home. As a result, employees need to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic while they work from home, providing an opportunity to examine how COVID-19 prevention experiences influence those who are working from home. Based on the interpersonal self-regulation perspective, we propose that employees who perceive having more disagreements with their partners over COVID-19 prevention measures are more likely to experience a reduction in their identification with the partner which is subsequently associated with their negative work outcomes through emotional exhaustion. Results from a two-wave survey study with a sample of 282 employees who worked from home during the COVID-19 pandemic supported our predictions: perceived self-partner disagreements over COVID-19 prevention measures related to a reduction in identification with the partner, which was subsequently associated with exhausted regulatory resources and undermined work outcomes. Furthermore, these negative effects were particularly salient for individuals who were not married. Theoretical and practical implications for family-to-work interference and working from home in times of crisis are discussed.

Individualism-Collectivism, Social Self-Control and Adolescent Substance Use and Risky Sexual Behavior

ABSTRACTIndividualism and collectivism are cultural syndromes that have been associated with adolescent problem behavior in studies conducted in the U.S. and Southeast Asia. However, research investigating the mechanisms of how cultural orientation impacts health risk behaviors has been limited. This study tested a new model explaining the relationship between cultural orientation (i.e., individualism, collectivism) and adolescent problem behavior (i.e., substance use and risky sex) in terms of interpersonal self-regulation (i.e., social self-control). As such, the study is rooted in theories of the role of culture in developing self-regulation. Participants were high school students (N = 716) from the Bashkirtostan Republic of the Russian Federation. Adolescents from the Russian Federation tend to show high prevalence of cigarette smoking and binge drinking. People of the Russian Federation in general are traditionally collectivist in orientation, although increased globalization and post-Soviet capitalism may indicate high individualist values in younger generation Russians. Using path analysis we found that in addition to having direct effects, higher individualism indirectly affected substance use and risky sexual behavior through social self-control and negative life events. Higher collectivism was found to have a direct protective effect on risky sexual behavior and a direct effect on social self-control. However, collectivism was not found to have indirect effects on substance use or risky sexual behavior. Higher individualism appears to function as a risk factor for adolescent problem behavior and this relationship may be mediated by lower social self-control. Culturally-tailored prevention programs utilizing the individualism-collectivism framework may benefit from addressing social self-control.

Narcissism, self-esteem, and the phenomenology of autobiographical memories

ABSTRACTAcross two studies, we investigated the influence of narcissism and self-esteem along with gender on phenomenological ratings across the four subscales of the Autobiographical Memory Questionnaire (AMQ; impact, recollection, rehearsal, and belief). Memory cues varied in valence (positive vs. negative) and agency (agentic vs. communal). In Study 2, we used different memory cues reflecting these four Valence by Agency conditions and additionally investigated retrieval times for the autobiographical memories (AMs). Results were consistent with the agency model of narcissism [Campbell, W. K., Brunell, A. B., & Finkel, E. J. (2006). Narcissism, interpersonal self-regulation, and romantic relationships: An agency model approach. In E. J. Finkel & K. D. Vohs (Eds.), Self and relationships: Connecting intrapersonal and interpersonal processes. New York, NY: Guilford], which characterises narcissists as being more concerned with agentic (self-focused) rather than communal (other-focused) positive self-relevant information. Narcissism predicted greater phenomenology across the four subscales for the positive-agentic memories (Study 1: clever; Study 2: attractive, talented) as well as faster memory retrieval times. Narcissism also predicted greater recollection and faster retrieval times for the negative-communal AMs (Study 1: rude; Study 2: annoying, dishonest). In contrast, self-esteem predicted greater phenomenology and faster retrieval times for the positive-communal AMs (Study 1: cooperative; Study 2: romantic, sympathetic). In both studies, results of LIWC analyses further differentiated between narcissism and self-esteem in the content (word usage) of the AMs.

Cognitive-Emotional Functioning in Somatic Symptom and Related Disorders: Self-Reports Versus Observer-Rated Findings

Objective: Literature on cognitive-emotional functioning reflects indications that patients with somatic symptomor related disorder may suffer from diminished affective mentalizing/ psychological mindedness that is impairment in the ability for reflectivity about psychological processes, relationships and meanings. Affective mentalizing/ psychological mindedness seems to play an important role in cognitive-emotional functioning especially in a social context as engaging in group-psychotherapy. The present study investigated psychological mindedness in somatic symptoms- and conversion disorder (SSCD) patients, by examining similarities and differences between self-reports and their psychotherapists’ observations of social-cognitive-emotional functioning i.e. dysfunctional self-regulation. Methods: A cross-sectional design was applied to 43 patients with SSCD and their psychotherapists, who independently rated the patient’s (dysfunctional) emotional-, dissociative-, and interpersonal self-regulation. Results: Compared to the psychotherapists’ observations, patients under reported their degree of dysfunctional emotional self-regulation i.e. under-regulation of affect, interpersonal self-regulation (fears of abandonment and closeness, lack of interpersonal trust) and dissociative self-regulation (somatoform- and psychoform dissociation). Patients over reported problems dysfunctional emotional self-regulation, i.e., insight into their own emotions and problems with verbalizing of emotions. Patients were generally consistent with their psychotherapists regarding difficulties emotional self-regulation, i.e., analyzing of affect and insight into others’ emotions. Although patients who disclosed a history of childhood traumatic experiences involving a primary caregiver (TPC) reported higher levels of problems with under-regulation of affect and lack of interpersonal trust than patients denying such childhood trauma, TPC was not associated with deficits in psychological mindedness in this sample of somatoform disorder patients. Conclusion: It seems of clinical relevance to add clinical observations to self-reported dysfunctional selfregulation in somatic symptom- and conversion disorder patients to assess affective mentalizing/ psychological mindedness. It seems that patient- compared to clinician ratings are in agreement on emotional constriction (difficulty in analyzing own- and understanding others’ emotions), but under–rate problems with dissociative-, interpersonaland emotional/hyperarousal self-regulation, and over-rate their problems with insight and verbalizing emotions.

Early Manifestations of Personality and Adult Emotional Functioning.

Developmental antecedents to adult emotional functioning were investigated in an epidemiologic study using theories of personality and emotion. The authors tested whether different types of adult emotional distress can be linked to childhood personality attributes. Using data from 3,138 children at age 7, measures of 4 childhood personality attributes were developed and validated: Behavioral Inhibition, Distress Proneness, Attention, and Inappropriate Interpersonal Self-Regulation. Sound psychometric properties of these scales are demonstrated by considering the measures across multiple samples and in comparison with established child behavior measures. Emotional distress measures were obtained for 694 of these individuals at age 35. Of the personality attributes, 3 of 4 (except behavioral inhibition) predicted general levels of distress as well as specific aspects of adult emotional functioning.
