The journey from childhood to adulthood also goes with the transition of adolescents to economic independence and often ensured through socialization into work and entrepreneurial-driven cultural values. This study sought to examine the effect of entrepreneurial habits on adolescent socialization into economic independence among the Bamileke of Cameroon. The Social Cognitive Theory of Albert Bandura (1977) provided the theoretical starting point for this study.
 Methodology: The study adopted a quantitative design to test the influence of entrepreneurial habits on socialization of adolescents into economic independence. The study site was the Beamlike society of the West Region of Cameroon. With regard to sample, 384 adolescents were recruited from 8 selected villages for the study. Participants were selected using purposive sampling and a questionnaire with determined internal reliability coefficient was used for information gathering. Data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics.
 Findings: Results show that entrepreneurial habit was able to explain the variations in economic independence at 73.7%. Analysis also suggested that a unit increase in the level of entrepreneurial habit will increase socialization into economic independence at 0.324 units. Furthermore, results confirmed the model as a good fit (F= 1068.761), and consequently, the null hypothesis was rejected.
 Recommendations: Therefore, work habit significantly estimated the level of socialization into economic independence of adolescents. Considering that entrepreneurial development is the most important input in the economic development of any society, the objectives of industrial development, balanced regional growth, and generation of employment opportunities should be achievable through entrepreneurial development and this depends on the inculcation entrepreneurial values in young people. Therefore, adolescents should be socialized and guided on how to develop business habits in order to be able to detect opportunities, indulge in business start-up in order to achieve economic independence. The Government strategies of creating job creators should be reinforced at the grass-root and this should build on the creative and innovative values of a people.","PeriodicalId":48063,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Psychology","volume":"2 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136229531","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}

Mindfulness, we are to understand, is a special state in which the mind is gathered up into itself, thereby achieving an autonomous state that is potentially pleasant, probably supportive of subjective well-being and health, and possibly conducive to the cultivation of useful life skills (Bishop et al., 2004). The publication of Jon Kabat-Zinn's (1990) hefty volume Full Catastrophe Living was a watershed event that motivated millions of seekers and healers as well as many academics to embark on a search for this beneficent if elusive mental state. Eric Loucks, a professor in the School of Public Health at Brown University, has developed a course on mindfulness for his students, and he has given a TEDx talk on the matter. He presents his case for the educational use of mindfulness training in The Mindful College Student: How to Succeed, Boost Well-Being & Build the Life You Want at University & Beyond.The contemporary interest in mindfulness continues the old quest for an integration of the philosophy and science of the West with the wisdom of the East (Schopenhauer, 1819; Suzuki & Fromm, 1960; Watts, 1957). These geographic designations have lost much of their acuity, but their echoes remain. Now as then, there is in the West a sense of loss, a mourning for what is magical and mystical. The East still has some of what the Enlightenment has exorcised in the West. Loucks, like Kabat-Zinn, invokes the promise of a synthesis, and the late Thich Nhat Hanh plays the role of patron saint (Bryant, 2022), blessing the Western quest for self-improvement with the effortless Zen of the dharma (e.g., Thich, 1975). Yet, to some Western eyes, an epigraph such as Thich's points to a place where the profound and the nonsensical are one. But okay, it's a Zen thing.Thich's epigram can be found in his preface to Kabat-Zinn's 467-page tome, whose title is surprisingly nondharmaic. As Kabat-Zinn explains, we owe the powerful image of full-catastrophe living to Nikos Kazantzakis and his towering character of Alexis Zorbas, or Αλέξης Ζορμπάς (Kazantzakis, 1946/1952; Krueger, 2015). Reflecting on his bygone family life, Zorbas recalls that yes, he had a wife, a home, children—the full catastrophe! The character of Zorbas is the antithesis to the pensive and Zen-like narrator, a.k.a. “the boss.” Before mindfulness became de rigueur, Kazantzakis experimented with the dialectic of his two characters to explore the interplay of Eastern and Western perspectives. He never achieved a synthesis. Perhaps to his credit he surrendered to a life suspended between the poles of contemplation and action.Kabat-Zinn's project had an immense impact on psychotherapy and on how lay audiences view psychology. It created an industry of mindfulness studies and practices. The initial mission of this project was focused and pragmatic: to help people live with chronic pain and to help the stressed-o","PeriodicalId":48063,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Psychology","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136199174","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}

Two experiments explore the fundamental but novel issue of whether the missing letter effect is due to the test word containing the target letter or to the words surrounding the test word. College students searched for a target letter (e in Experiment 1, o in Experiment 2) in a passage that included unrelated sentences, with each sentence containing a single instance of 1 of 2 test words (the or one in Experiment 1, of or on in Experiment 2). The sentences were intact (prose), or the words in each sentence were randomly rearranged (scrambled). The 2 test words in an experiment were surrounded by the exact same words. If the word containing the target letter is primarily responsible for the missing letter effect, the proportion of correct letter detection responses should depend on the test word, whereas if the surrounding words are primarily responsible, it should depend on the text type (prose, scrambled). In fact, in both experiments a huge effect of test word was found but no effect of text type. These results provide clear evidence for the influence of the test word but, surprisingly, no evidence for the influence of the surrounding words on the missing letter effect in the letter detection task.","PeriodicalId":48063,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Psychology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136199172","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}

Science is fruitful when it offers effective applications. We can use what we have learned to craft interventions to get what we want. Psychological science has made many contributions to human welfare, education, therapy, and the management of people, among other things (Forgas, Crano, & Fiedler, 2020). These improvements do not require the assumption that human nature is fundamentally flawed. Human nature just is, and yet we might tweak things to our advantage. We are perfect the way we are, and we could use a little improvement. This is the Zen of psychology.The Art of Insubordination: How to Dissent & Defy Effectively is presented as a cookbook and handbook intended to promote an attitude of resistance to society's “unhelpful norms” (p. IX) and to provide insight into the skills that enable the “principled insubordinate” to prevail. Such an attitude, at least if shared by many, we are told, can deliver technological progress, individual happiness, and social harmony. Why is a revolution of insubordination necessary? In psychology, a narrative of original sin and redemption is not uncommon, and it is most evident in the rhetoric of bias and error (Krueger & Funder, 2004; Nisbett & Ross, 1980). Wikipedia, the author reports, lists over 100 psychological biases. This deluge of irrationality is critical to the narrative because now we can ask, What if all these biases were eradicated? Many debiasing researchers have cut their teeth on this challenge—and broken a few—only to learn that many biases are features of a well-honed system (Krueger & Massey, 2009). Is an end run around the business of debiasing possible, such that “principled insubordination neutralizes our cognitive biases” (p. 44)?How might this be accomplished? Principled insubordination, we are told, promotes creativity, curiosity, and well-being. However, we are left wondering whether there are things that principled insubordination cannot accomplish. If it is the source of all that is good, beautiful, and true, we must rush to master and apply it. Why haven't we? Perhaps we haven't because many social norms have their uses (Sunstein, 2019). Majority opinions are often correct (Hastie & Kameda, 2005), and traditions can be empowering (Bicchieri, 2005; reviewed by Krueger, 2006). False majority opinions and oppressive traditions are—by definition—a problem, but the question is which social norms are false or oppressive and how we know the difference. Why might we want to assume that with all the cognitive biases infecting the ordinary mind, people are adept at telling insubordination-worthy social norms from beneficent ones? Assuming that people can, at least some of the time, tell the difference, are they still flawed by being overall too timid or too complacent with what is familiar?Some people do not lack courage. “A t","PeriodicalId":48063,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Psychology","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136199171","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 is for the good inasmuch as data carry useful information. Information that is predictive, valid, and free from unwanted biases helps improve human welfare. Big data can reveal truths that challenge compelling intuitions or cherished beliefs. Given that our world is being flooded with petabytes of data, we can now ask what lessons it may offer to those who want to make the best of their lives—and that appears to be most of us.Seth Stephens-Davidowitz (SSD) responds to this quest in his provocatively titled book Don't Trust Your Gut: Using Data to Get What You Really Want in Life. A self-professed data geek, SSD reveals his story wryly, a point to which we shall return. Meanwhile, it is clear that he wants to write a self-help book (“I am writing a self-help book,” p. 13). He presents Gut in order to offer data-driven help with the great life decisions: How to select a mate suitable for a happy partnership, how to be a great parent, how to succeed professionally, and how to be generally happy. Whew! Using instinct and data-driven memories, we may expect Gut to do well. It is not a demanding read; it serves up the data gathered from a few—but big—sources, and readers may go forth and “get what they want in life.”Some of the data-driven lessons are worthwhile, though neither novel nor counterintuitive. The value of social connection for well-being, for example, is well established after decades of the kind of study (for a review see Cacioppo et al., 2008) SSD dismisses for its “tiny samples” (p. 21), ignoring the fact that many small samples add up to very large samples. Likewise, the benefits of being in nature as opposed to being in a built-up environment are well known (Capaldi, Dopko, & Zelenski, 2014), as SSD acknowledges. The benefits of being exposed to aesthetically pleasing scenes are a recent addition to this theme. The third element of the great happiness triad is motion. A moving body is a happy body (Zhang & Chen, 2019), and SSD turns this wheel by calling on us to get off the couch. Concluding with a flourish, he declares, “The data driven answer to life is as follows: be with your love, on an 80-degree and sunny day, overlooking a beautiful body of water, having sex” (p. 265).This is a bit much, and by the way, who would enjoy the lake view at a moment of intimacy? Treading more lightly, one of us (J.I.K.) has advised his students to take a friend out for a walk in nature to solve the equation of happiness = motion + nature + social connection. The data have long been clear. The remaining psychological puzzle is why people do not do more of this. Presumably, they have other and possibly irrational preferences as well as obligations such as making a living that keep them in a busy state short of the attainable level of happiness. Perhaps here is a chance for big data to make a contribution and solve this puzzle.Other l","PeriodicalId":48063,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Psychology","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136199179","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}

One issue is whether high-level intellectual performance depends mainly on persistence and extensive practice, or whether genes set widely varying maximum performance levels. Another issue is whether, if genes do limit performance level, how much genetic potential still goes undeveloped in a given domain's participants who progress some way and then stop. International chess is a good test domain because it has objective performance measures, little gatekeeper influence, and abundant longitudinal, population-level data. Performance of 27,362 players entering the international chess domain between 1985 and 1999 was investigated in 6 studies. By June 2022, only about 3% had met the high achievement criterion of grandmaster status, taking a median 9.26 years and 472 internationally rated games to gain the title, far more games than the median all-participant career total of 130. About 67% of those playing over 1,500 games became grandmasters, and almost all grandmasters had achieved the title by 1,500 games. Then, for non-grandmaster participants playing at least 100 but less than 1,500 games, a mathematical model, which predicts future grandmaster performance reasonably well, estimated their unrealized potential. The model projected their learning curves out to over 1,500 games and predicted their peak rating if they actually had played over 1,500 games. By model predictions, perhaps only 10–15% might have achieved the title by persisting. These results show that persistence is important but not all-important because genes may limit maximum performance level. Players also may gauge accurately their ultimate performance prospects.","PeriodicalId":48063,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Psychology","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136199177","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}

Both groups showed improvements in sleep hygiene practices, perceived barriers to stimulus control, sleep quality, general technology usage, and technology usage before bed. However, the SHSC-E group did not have greater improvements compared to SHSC group as hypothesized, which suggests that the combination of sleep hygiene and stimulus control is a robust enough method for reducing self-reported technology usage.
