State Self-esteem (state + self-esteem)
Selected AbstractsThe role of state self-esteem in positive mood effects on person impression: When does a positive mood lead to a favorable view of others?JAPANESE PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCH, Issue 1 2002Tomoko Ikegami Abstract: Subjects in a positive or a neutral mood were engaged in an impression formation task (Experiment 1), and in a word fragment completion task (Experiment 2). A self-referent versus other-referent sentence completion task was used to induce a positive mood state. As a result, the subjects exhibited mood congruent effects on impression ratings in the self-referent but not in the other-referent mood induction condition. Word completion data, however, indicated that relevant traits (i.e., friendly traits) had been equally activated across the two mood induction conditions. It was also demonstrated that the self-referent induction procedure was effective in enhancing the level of self-esteem, whereas the other-referent one was not. The results converged to suggest that the enhancement in state self-esteem accompanying the self-referent procedure might be relevant to positive mood effects on person impression. This indicates the limitation of the mood priming model.

Swim Three daily diary studies were conducted to examine the incidence, nature, and impact of everyday sexism as reported by college women and men. Women experienced about one to two impactful sexist incidents per week, consisting of traditional gender role stereotypes and prejudice, demeaning and degrading comments and behaviors, and sexual objectification. These incidents affected women's psychological well-being by decreasing their comfort, increasing their feelings of anger and depression, and decreasing their state self-esteem. Although the experiences had similar effects on men's anger, depression, and state self-esteem, men reported relatively fewer sexist incidents, suggesting less overall impact on men. The results provide evidence for the phenomena of everyday prejudice and enlighten our understanding of the experience of prejudice in interpersonal encounters from the perspective of the target. [source] Predictors of satisfaction among cognitively intact nursing home residents in Hong KongRESEARCH IN NURSING & HEALTH, Issue 5 2005Linda Y.K. Lee Abstract Resident satisfaction is widely recognized as a critical dimension in assessing quality of nursing home care. Although many factors are associated with satisfaction, little is known about the relative importance of these factors in predicting satisfaction. The purpose of this study was to identify the demographic, physiological, psychological, and social predictors of satisfaction in a convenience sample of 175 nursing home residents in Hong Kong. Seventeen resident variables were investigated. Variables that showed significant bivariate associations with satisfaction were entered into the stepwise regression model. Health-related quality of life (mental component), state self-esteem, and social support satisfaction, significantly accounted for 31% of the variance of satisfaction. These findings suggest approaches to tailor care plans to increase resident satisfaction. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Res Nurs Health 28: 376,387, 2005. [source] | |||||||||||||
