Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient analysis, and multivariate multiple regression analysis.

Additionally, actively approaching was negatively associated with depressive symptoms. Overall, the findings demonstrate that university students who use maladaptive behavioral emotion regulation strategies (e.g., withdrawal, ignoring) tend to have higher levels of psychological distress, whereas university students who use adaptive emotion regulation strategies (e.g., distraction) tend to have lower levels of psychological distress. However, contrary to expectations, seeking social support was positively associated with symptoms of psychological distress.

Interpersonal emotion regulation has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach, often facilitated through confiding. It has been suggested that medical staff benefit from confiding, with the act of reflecting on the social support gained from confiding being associated with higher well-being. Consequently, we hypothesized that thinking about the social support derived from confiding about work-related hassles could enhance emotion regulation and well-being in shift work nurses. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the intervention \"thinking about the social support obtained from confiding about work-related hassles\" on shift work nurses' emotion regulation and self-perceived well-being. An online randomized controlled trial was conducted with 66 shift work nurses, including 34 in the experimental group and 32 in the control group, to assess the impact of an 8-week confiding intervention focused on thinking about the social support obtained from confiding. The results indicated that the intervention significantly improved the interpersonal emotion regulation of shift work nurses in the experimental group compared to the control group. In terms of intrapersonal emotion regulation, the intervention appeared to reduce the cognitive reappraisal in the intervention group; however, there was no significant difference in cognitive reappraisal or expressive inhibition between the intervention group and control group. Furthermore, self-rated general health and sleep quality showed significant improvement in the intervention group compared to pre-test levels, but no significant differences were observed between the experimental and control groups. In conclusion, the online confiding intervention effectively enhanced interpersonal emotion regulation among shift work nurses. However, its effects on intrapersonal emotion regulation were not significant. Similarly, while participants in the intervention group reported improved self-rated general health and sleep quality, these improvements did not significantly differ from those in the control group.</p>","PeriodicalId":8742,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Sciences","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11762668/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143031719","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}

When inadmissible evidence is introduced, the common legal remedy is judicial instructions to jurors to disregard it. Appeals courts repeatedly affirm instructions to disregard as a sufficient safeguard of defendants' constitutional rights, despite research finding that jurors do not disregard when instructed. The goals of this research were to (1) test the main and interactive effects of four theory-driven candidate strategies to help jurors disregard inadmissible evidence (i.e., inducing suspicion, giving a substantive reason for disregarding, committing to disregarding, advising future jurors) and identify an optimized intervention package, and (2) evaluate whether adding the optimized intervention package showed more favorable effects than judicial instructions only. Study 1 used a 2<sup>4</sup> full factorial randomized controlled trial to evaluate the four candidate intervention strategies. A synergistic interaction among the candidate components suggested an optimized intervention package comprising all four interventions. Study 2 used a parallel four-arm randomized controlled trial to compare conviction rates in the same hypothetical murder trial under four conditions: (1) no exposure to inadmissible evidence, (2) exposure to inadmissible evidence without objection, (3) exposure to inadmissible evidence + judicial instructions (\"standard practice\"), and (4) exposure + judicial instructions + optimized intervention package. Across both studies, mock jurors who received the optimized intervention package returned significantly lower conviction rates than comparison conditions.

This paper argues for a shift in focus from the outcomes of anger to its moral and psychological foundations. By integrating insights from psychological research, this study posits that the fundamental nature of anger is intrinsically linked to the quest for recognition. Justified anger is defined as an emotional response to the unmet need for fair acknowledgment, while unjustified anger stems from feelings of superiority and the pursuit of higher status. This paper distinguishes between these two forms of anger, providing a more nuanced and intuitive understanding of the emotion. This interpretive framework not only aligns with our experiential understanding of anger but also offers a theoretical bridge to reconcile divergent philosophical and psychological perspectives.

This study draws on social exchange theory and equity theory to examine how procedural justice influences the cross-level pathways of job crafting. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) was employed to analyze data from 76 companies and 1049 employees. The results demonstrate that procedural justice significantly and positively impacts employee job crafting. Additionally, organizational psychological ownership mediates the relationship between procedural justice and job crafting at a cross-level, while high-performance work systems positively moderate the link between organizational psychological ownership and job crafting. These findings reveal a novel pathway for enhancing employee job crafting and offer practical insights for corporate management.
