However, whether the stereotype boost and threat effects can be elicited in other groups or cultures is still unclear. In Study 1, 78 Chinese science female students were primed by science-identity, female-identity, or no-identity, followed by a math test. Results showed that science- and female-identity-primed groups performed better than the control group. Study 2 with 104 Chinese science female students found the same results. In Chinese culture, stereotype boost can be generalized to science female students, and stereotype threat, which can be influenced by culture or experimental settings, was not discovered.","PeriodicalId":48014,"journal":{"name":"Basic and Applied Social Psychology","volume":"44 1","pages":"95 - 108"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48584907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building on contact theory, we hypothesize that voice support by ethnic outgroup coworkers leads to more favorable, while voice suppression leads to less favorable attitudes regarding immigrant entitlements. Furthermore, we examine potential reciprocal effects. The hypotheses are tested using a three-wave panel survey of native Dutch respondents. Findings indicate a negative effect of voice suppression by ethnic outgroup coworkers on attitudes regarding immigrant entitlements, implying that workplace interethnic contact can shape political attitudes. Moreover, findings indicate that the less favorable native employees’ attitudes regarding immigrant entitlements are, the more likely they are to subsequently experience suppression by ethnic outgroup coworkers.","PeriodicalId":48014,"journal":{"name":"Basic and Applied Social Psychology","volume":"44 1","pages":"109 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48791502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is known that MH algorithms have been utilized in complex engineering and optimization problems, including feature selection (FS). Thus, in this regard, this paper used nine MH algorithms as FS methods to boost the classification accuracy of the HAR and fall detection applications. The applied MH were the Aquila optimizer (AO), arithmetic optimization algorithm (AOA), marine predators algorithm (MPA), artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, genetic algorithm (GA), slime mold algorithm (SMA), grey wolf optimizer (GWO), whale optimization algorithm (WOA), and particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). First, we applied efficient prepossessing and segmentation methods to reveal the motion patterns and reduce the time complexities. Second, we developed a light feature extraction technique using advanced deep learning approaches. The developed model was ResRNN and was composed of several building blocks from deep learning networks including convolution neural networks (CNN), residual networks, and bidirectional recurrent neural networks (BiRNN). Third, we applied the mentioned MH algorithms to select the optimal features and boost classification accuracy. Finally, the support vector machine and random forest classifiers were employed to classify each activity in the case of multi-classification and to detect fall and non-fall actions in the case of binary classification. We used seven different and complex datasets for the multi-classification case: the PAMMP2, Sis-Fall, UniMiB SHAR, OPPORTUNITY, WISDM, UCI-HAR, and KU-HAR datasets. In addition, we used the Sis-Fall dataset for the binary classification (fall detection). We compared the results of the nine MH optimization methods using different performance indicators. We concluded that MH optimization algorithms had promising performance in HAR and fall detection applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":48014,"journal":{"name":"Basic and Applied Social Psychology","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2022-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9599938/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88305784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examined the efficacy of Psychological Inoculation (PI) in enhancing self-disclosure. A randomized-clinical-trial design was adopted. Fifty-five respondents (39.5 ± 10.5 years) who scored below the mean (  = 45.30) on HIV-Self-disclosure Index were purposively assigned to study groups. The PI was effective in enhancing self-disclosure (effect size (np 2) = 0.35). However, individuals who received the refutation preemption variant (  = 78.18) and the supportive variant of PI (  = 75.18) reported higher disclosure than those who did not (  = 72.39).

However, the correlations were weak and markedly lower in the higher-powered online laboratory trial. Overall, these results indicate that perceived variability may have limited scaling potential due to low adaptability and effectiveness.

In this experimental study, we investigated a commitment intervention to improve online attendance among university students (n = 973) during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the experimental condition, we asked students to commit to attending all classes and divided this group into students who made the commitment and those who did not commit. The data was analyzed from a psychological perspective (the effect on the individuals who responded positively to the commitment request) and a policy perspective (the effect for all individuals that received the request). No intervention effect was found when comparing students’ attendance in the experimental condition to the control condition, but students who made the commitment attended class more often than non-committing students and those in the control condition. Exploratory analyses revealed that the intervention effect was found in the course with lower attendance, indicating that a ceiling effect possibly prevented the intervention from showing results regarding attendance. However, exploratory analyses also revealed selection bias as a possible explanation for the effects. Additionally, the intervention backfired for non-committing students, reducing their attendance. Future research should focus on different strategies to improve online attendance.","PeriodicalId":48014,"journal":{"name":"Basic and Applied Social Psychology","volume":"44 1","pages":"12 - 24"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47347343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

RBP is a suggestion that research journals decide on publication of submitted manuscripts based on reviewing only their Introduction section (which suggests the substantive importance of the research question addressed by the study) and Methods section (which suggests how likely the study validly answers that question), as a means of avoiding publication bias based on what the results are claimed to be, a bias that exacerbates replicability problems. I differentiate the separate questions of: (1) what should be the criteria for a positive as opposed to null research finding versus (2) what should be the criteria for publication of manuscripts. I believe the conflation of these two different questions fuels some of the controversies and confusion concerning null hypothesis significance testing and similar issues. I also compare the pros and cons of RBP versus the practice of preregistering studies. Further, I cite a potentially serious problem with RBP and suggest a fix-up involving a decision theoretic approach to manuscript publication.","PeriodicalId":48014,"journal":{"name":"Basic and Applied Social Psychology","volume":"44 1","pages":"38 - 46"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45226004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
