This study examined whether a therapist-led, AI-assisted classical piano intervention could produce stronger process-level psychological gains than matched therapist-led piano instruction without adaptive AI feedback among young adults diagnosed with mild-to-moderate anxiety or depression. A randomized controlled mixed-methods design was used with 120 Mandarin-speaking participants aged 18-30 years assigned to either an AI-assisted condition or a non-AI control condition. Over a 10-week program, both groups completed weekly 90-min supervised sessions, and pretest/post-test changes were assessed in resilience, mindfulness, and music-related emotional processing. Quantitative data were analyzed using 2 × 2 mixed repeated-measures ANOVA and follow-up tests, while post-intervention interviews from a stratified experimental subsample were analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. The findings showed significant improvement in both groups; however, the AI-assisted condition demonstrated larger gains across all three primary outcomes, together with a steeper trajectory of weekly musical performance development. Engagement indicators within the AI-assisted group were positively associated with psychological improvement. Qualitative findings reinforced this pattern, with emotional release, increased self-awareness, and stronger motivation to continue practice emerging as the most frequent themes. The study suggests that AI can contribute meaningfully to music-based intervention in supervised contexts, not as an autonomous agent but as an adaptive feedback layer. From a practical viewpoint, the model provides a viable framework for structured mental health-focused practice in various contexts.","PeriodicalId":47581,"journal":{"name":"Journal of General Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147677721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sample consisted of 200 schoolchildren from three secondary schools and 194 parents (father or mother of a child). The research uses the intervention Rural Roots: Empowering Parental Involvement in Education and the assessment scale, the Parents' Role in the Education of Schoolchildren (PRESC), to collect the data and evaluate the results. The scholars used the data on children's academic achievements collected at the end of the academic year. The research identified significant increases in PRESC subscales in the intervention group. In this group, the results of the indicator Homework support and guidance increased by 9.39, Communication with teachers by 8.62, Encouragement and motivation by 8.72, Participation in home learning by 8.10, and Support for extracurricular activities by 7.12. These findings confirm that parental involvement plays an important role in education, especially in secondary school. Moreover, the intervention group revealed an increase in academic success in all subjects, including an increase in Chinese language knowledge by 7.44 points, mathematics by 8.31, English language by 7.13, geography by 7.61, and chemistry by 8.23.

The sample included 100 second-year students of Suzhou Vocational University who studied at the Department of Music. The research tools were the Scale of Motivation to Study in an Opera Choir and the Scale of Self-expression in an Opera Choir. As an educational intervention, an influence program included a set of innovative ways to organize the learning of choral opera. The study revealed significant improvements in the motivation and self-expression of students using innovative approaches to learning choral opera. Regarding the indicators of self-expression in the influence group, the students increased Emotional Expression by 6.68 points, Artistic Individuality by 6.66 points, and Creative Interpretation by 7.08 points. These data demonstrate that innovative teaching methods can significantly improve the studied aspects of learning. Statistically significant results in the influence group, in contrast to the control group, confirm the effectiveness of integrating innovative approaches into the educational process. Therefore, integrated innovative methods can play a key role in shaping the future of choral opera. The results have practical value, confirming that the integration of innovative methods into the educational process in an opera choir can significantly improve the motivation and self-expression of students. The scientific value lies in the rationale for using innovative approaches in education. The study highlights their potential role in the development of choral opera.","PeriodicalId":47581,"journal":{"name":"Journal of General Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"153-180"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144817925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Individuals may experience inner turmoil and sorrow in this situation. However, hope may play a crucial part in mitigating this adverse circumstance, despite existential concerns, as it symbolizes the person's ability to cultivate optimistic hopes and beliefs toward the future. In this regard, the current study intends to investigate the longitudinal mediation role of hope between existential concerns and inner peace. The literature has never examined the linkages between these concepts and their design in a longitudinal study. A significant gap in the research was addressed in the current study by combining these factors for the first time and employing a longitudinal mediation analysis, which also avoided the drawbacks of mediational analysis in cross-sectional studies. As a result, by autoregressive analysis of the cross-lagged panel model in a half-longitudinal form, the connections among existential concerns, hope, and inner peace ideas are investigated. In the relationship between existential concerns and inner peace, the analysis's findings demonstrate the longitudinal mediation of hope. Existential concerns can be viewed as a normal state, yet they pose a threat to inner peace and necessitate optimism. If not, people may lose hope and experience inner turmoil as a result of existential concerns. Interventions with an existential viewpoint are therefore necessary to boost hope in this area.","PeriodicalId":47581,"journal":{"name":"Journal of General Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"233-249"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145287312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These errors tend to be in the direction of making psychological research appear more consistent than it is, as well as promoting viewpoints consistent with politically progressive ideologies. Some famous experiments in psychology have also seen serious questions raised about their validity. Given that these conversations have gone on for about a decade, it is worth considering whether identification of these issues resulted in improved coverage in introductory textbooks. Textbooks were sampled at two time points. Sixteen textbooks were sampled in 2018, and 18 in 2023. Although some improvements are seen from earlier studies, results indicated that errors in textbooks have remained common even after this issue had been clearly identified in the published literature. Misreporting of basic scientific information remains common in introductory textbooks, despite improvements in some areas. Textbook authors should be alert to potential misinformation, particularly related to controversial topics. Introductory psychology teachers may need to be aware that not all information presented in textbooks is true.","PeriodicalId":47581,"journal":{"name":"Journal of General Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"272-285"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145582694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article advances understanding of why romantic relationship dissolution occurs by considering dissolution through the lens of two prominent theories of intentional behavior: the reasoned action approach and the theory of interpersonal behavior. The components of each theory are explained and examined within the context of romantic relationship dissolution. Additional factors including anticipated affect, implementation intentions, and attitude toward the process, are considered to provide an integrative framework that can increase understanding and prediction of relationship dissolution. This article responds to calls for more theoretical integration of romantic relationship dissolution research. Future research using this integrative framework should explore the causal relationship among the proposed theoretical antecedents to relationship dissolution to reduce the negative outcomes of breaking up as well as to facilitate fulfilling romantic relationships. The integrative framework can also be applied to remedy relationship dissolution issues as well as to enhance the development and maintenance of romantic relationships.","PeriodicalId":47581,"journal":{"name":"Journal of General Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"196-232"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145287267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research investigated two judgmental tendencies in the LYin Deception Dilemmas, Deception Endorsement (instrumental permissiveness toward deception) and Normative Alignment (adherence to social norms) across both self-regarding and other-regarding contexts, examining their relationships with personality traits, perceived social norms, and social interaction. Study 1 revealed that self-regarding Deception Endorsement correlated negatively with Honesty-Humility and positively with Machiavellianism, whereas Normative Alignment showed a negative association with psychopathy. Individuals scoring higher on Deception Endorsement reported greater perceived similarity to self-benefiting liars and less similarity to honest characters depicted in video clips. Study 2, assessing judgments from both personal and majority perspectives, showed that Normative Alignment, but not Deception Endorsement, correlated with higher consistency between personal judgments and estimates of majority judgments. Study 3 introduced an interpersonal discussion and found that although Normative Alignment increased during discussion, it exhibited an upward trend over repeated judgments, whereas Deception Endorsement showed a decrease over time. Overall, these findings suggest that Deception Endorsement and Normative Alignment in the LYin Deception Dilemmas reflect distinct psychological characteristics, with the former relating to honesty-associated traits and the latter to social norm adherence.","PeriodicalId":47581,"journal":{"name":"Journal of General Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-30"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147522337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
