Modeling Intensive Polytomous Time-Series Eye-Tracking Data: A Dynamic Tree-Based Item Response Model

This paper presents a dynamic tree-based item response (IRTree) model as a novel extension of the autoregressive generalized linear mixed effect model (dynamic GLMM). We illustrate the unique utility of the dynamic IRTree model in its capability of modeling differentiated processes indicated by intensive polytomous time-series eye-tracking data. The dynamic IRTree was inspired by but is distinct from the dynamic GLMM which was previously presented by Cho, Brown-Schmidt, and Lee (Psychometrika 83(3):751–771, 2018). Unlike the dynamic IRTree, the dynamic GLMM is suitable for modeling intensive binary time-series eye-tracking data to identify visual attention to a single interest area over all other possible fixation locations. The dynamic IRTree model is a general modeling framework which can be used to model change processes (trend and autocorrelation) and which allows for decomposing data into various sources of heterogeneity. The dynamic IRTree model was illustrated using an experimental study that employed the visual-world eye-tracking technique. The results of a simulation study showed that parameter recovery of the model was satisfactory and that ignoring trend and autoregressive effects resulted in biased estimates of experimental condition effects in the same conditions found in the empirical study.

     

The longitudinal relationship between angry rumination and reactive–proactive aggression and the moderation effect of consideration of future consequences-immediate

The idea that influential factors for two subtypes of aggression (reactive and proactive aggression) should be different is popular, but the common influential factors have not been examined. Such an examination could help understand the influential factors of aggression from the perspective of multiple motivations affecting the development of aggressive motivations over time. The present study argued that angry rumination would be a common influential factor for both reactive and proactive aggression. In addition, consideration of future consequences (CFC) may moderate the longitudinal effect of angry rumination on proactive aggression. Two studies were conducted to test these hypotheses. In Study 1, a cross-lagged analysis with a 6-month interval was employed. A total of 505 undergraduate students (46% males) completed the questionnaires twice. Results indicated that after a 6-month period, angry rumination predicted reactive aggression but not proactive aggression. Furthermore, reactive aggression predicted angry rumination over time. In Study 2, a moderation analysis was performed with another 437 participants (130 males). The results partly supported our hypotheses, indicating that CFC-immediate (CFC-I) moderated the longitudinal effect of angry rumination on proactive aggression. The present results extended prior research regarding the predictors of proactive and reactive aggression and may contribute to a greater understanding of the development of aggressive motivation. In addition, our research suggested that high CFC-I may be an important factor for the motivation change from reactive aggression to proactive aggression.     

顿悟问题解决的心理机制的验证性研究

目前顿悟问题解决的心理机制主要存在两个有争议性的理论：进程监控理论和表征变化理论。现以非限制性的停车场问题为实验材料,检验顿悟问题解决的这两个心理机制。结果发现：（1）进程监控理论可解释顿悟被试的成绩优劣;（2）表征变化理论可对顿悟问题能否解决做出解释。     

3至6岁幼儿心理压力源与表现

本研究在大量的调查、访谈和问卷分析的基础上,提出了有关幼儿心理压力的问题,并对幼儿心理压力的来源和表现进行了深入细致的调查和分析。结果发现,幼儿身边存在很多压力事件;幼儿的心理压力主要来源于6个方面:父母、老师、环境适应、同伴关系、功课学习和其他;幼儿的心理压力主要表现在四个方面:生理上的反应、行为上的反常、情绪上的变化和个性上的改变。     

任务指向型干预手段对教师教学监控能力的影响

本研究采用任务指向型干预手段,对１０名小学教师教学监控能力进行训练。结果发现：训练不仅提高了教师教学监控能力,而且提高了教师对教学的认知水平,改善了教师 教学行为。     

FOK判断与可接近信息之间的关系

通过三个实验,用语义联想集大小不同的中文单字词研究了靶项目联想集的大小与FOK判断等级和准确性的关系。实验一通过两种不同联想集大小的靶子,比较外显的、提取出的信息和内隐的、语义网络中固有的被激活信息量对FOK判断等级和FOK判断准确性是否有不同的影响。实验二和实验三通过不同的靶子呈现时间和学习遍数,比较不同的识记强度对不同大小联想集的靶子的FOK判断等级和FOK判断准确性的影响。实验结果表明：FOK判断等级随外显的、提取出的信息总量的增多而增高,随内隐的、语义网络中固有的被激活信息量的增多而降低。FOK判断准确性随靶子本身的激活强度的增强而增高,随内隐的、语义网络中固有的被激活信息的激活强度的增强而降低,FOK判断准确性取决于这两种激活强度的综合作用。     

平滑滚动引导式和快速系列视觉呈现式中文文本阅读工效研究

本研究在机控速度条件下,考察了显示窗口大小(10字和20字)、显示速度(300字／分和600字／分)和文本显示方式(平滑滚动的引导式和快速系列视觉呈现)等因素对VDT中文文本阅读工效的影响。实验结果发现：(1)300字／分的显示速度有利于阅读理解;(2)在本实验条件下,平滑滚动引导式的可读性优于快速系列视觉呈现式。最后,作者结合有关中文眼动研究理论,对上述结果的成因进行了简要探讨。     

关系绩效研究

1993年,Borman和Motowidlo在组织公民行为等概念的基础上提出了关系绩效的概念,引起了广泛关注和大量实证研究。近十年的实证研究主要集中在关系绩效的构成及影响方面。概括不同研究的结果归纳为利他人行为、利组织行为、利工作行为。人格和职务特征是影响关系绩效的主要因素。关系绩效对组织的影响主要表现在促进组织绩效、人员选拔、培训以及绩效评定等方面。作者通过研究综述提出几点启示。     

组织认同问卷（OIQ）在教师样本中的修订

在两个教师群体样本中,对Cheney编制的组织认同问卷（OIQ）进行修订。对338名中小学教师施测结果的探索性因素分析表明,教师组织认同为单因素结构模型;对256名高校教师施测结果的验证性因素分析支持了单因素模型的观点。在两个样本中,教师组织认同问卷的内部一致性系数均为0.92;教师组织认同问卷的内容效度和效标效度良好。     

汉英语言内及语言间重复启动效应的ERP研究

16名母语为汉语的被试参加了一个混合语言的语义判断任务,关键词用汉语和英语呈现,然后重复这些词（语言内或者语言间）。比较词汇第一次呈现、语言内和语言间重复产生的N400波幅的差异发现：汉语和英语的语言内重复启动效应差异不显著,而两种方向的语言间重复启动效应存在不对称性,从英语到汉语的重复启动效应显著大于从汉语到英语的重复启动效应,这与双语表征的非对称模型不尽一致。
