Theories of human action control deal with the question of how cognitive control is dynamically adjusted to task demands. The conflict monitoring theory of anterior cingulate (ACC) function suggests that the ACC monitors for response conflicts in the ongoing processing stream thereby triggering the mobilization of cognitive control. Alternatively, the outcome evaluation account of ACC function suggests that the ACC monitors for negative performance outcomes, an information that serves as an aversive learning signal for future action selection. Botvinick (2007) recently suggested that both theories might converge on the detection of aversive signals in general. Here, the authors provide first evidence that conflicts are registered as aversive signals. Congruent and incongruent Stroop color-words served as primes, and positive and negative stimuli as targets in an affective priming paradigm. Negative targets were evaluated faster after incongruent than after congruent Stroop primes, and positive targets were evaluated slower after incongruent than after congruent primes. The finding that conflicts are actually registered as aversive signals bridges the gap between competing theories of ACC function and has broad theoretical and behavioral implications as it makes the conflict monitoring theory applicable to a much wider range of situations and tasks. 相似文献

Geographical Frame of Reference and Dangerous Intergroup Attitudes: A Double-Minority Study in Sri Lanka 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An ethnic group can comprise a local majority, but be a minority within a broader geographic region or vice-versa. This situation has interesting psychological implications that may contribute to intergroup conflict. To test some of these implications, an experiment was conducted in Sri Lanka, during a ceasefire in the conflict between the government and Tamil rebellion forces. Participants were 100 Sinhalese students. An experimental manipulation was introduced to make one of two geographical regions salient: either just Sri Lanka (within which Sinhalese outnumber Tamils) or a broader region of south Asia (within which Sinhalese are outnumbered by Tamils). Following the manipulation, stereotypes and conflict-relevant attitudes were assessed. Results revealed that when Sinhalese participants were inclined to think of their group as the outnumbered minority, stereotypic perceptions of Tamils were more demonizing (i.e., depicting Tamils as more malevolent and also more competent), and their conflict-relevant attitudes were less conciliatory. These results have conceptual implications as well as implications for understanding conflict and conflict resolution. 相似文献

Financial interests of authors in scientific journals: A pilot study of 14 publications 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Disclosure of financial interests in scientific research is the centerpiece of the new conflict of interest regulations issued
by the U.S. Public Health Service and the National Science Foundation that became effective October 1, 1995. Several scientific
journals have also established financial disclosure requirements for contributors.
This paper measures the frequency of selected financial interests held among authors of certain types of scientific publications
and assesses disclosure practices of authors. We examined 1105 university authors (first and last cited) from Massachusetts
institutions whose 789 articles, published in 1992, appeared in 14 scientific and medical journals.
Authors are said to “possess a financial interest” if they are listed as inventors in a patent or patent application closely
related to their published work; serve on a scientific advisory board of a biotechnology company; or are officers, directors,
or major shareholders (beneficial owner of 10% or more of stock issued) in a firm that has commercial interests related to
their research. Applying the criteria to the reference population of journals and Massachusetts academic authors, we measured
the following frequencies for lead authors: .20 for serving on a scientific advisory board; .07 for being an officer, director,
or major shareholder in a biotechnology firm; and .22 for being listed as an inventor in a related patent or patent application.
The joint frequency of articles in the journals reviewed with a lead author that meets one of the three conditions is .34.
Implications of these results for the new conflict of interest guidelines and disclosure policies are discussed. 相似文献

This ethnographic examination examines interpersonal, intragroup conflict between Southern Baptist pastors in the USA with
a focus on the factors that contribute to such conflict. First, literature is provided to demonstrate the history of the denomination,
reasons for relational intragroup conflict between pastors working together in the same churches, and information on the prevalence
and instances of interpersonal conflict. Second, this study employs qualitative research methods, namely in-depth interviewing
and participant observation. Through engaging in interviews with the participants, statements were elicited from six Southern
Baptist pastors (Pastors #1, #2, and #3, and Outside Baptist Pastors #1, #2, and #3) on the nature, reasons, and prevalence
of such conflict between Southern Baptist pastoral leaders. As the sources of such conflict are diverse (i.e., historical
events, spiritual reasons, organizational conflict, interpersonal differences, etc.), I argue that qualitatively analyzing
and reporting on this subject is of value to scholars of ethnographic research and interpersonal communication in the religious
and spiritual realms. Furthermore, since the consequences of conflict can be severe (i.e., forced pastoral terminations, damaged
churches, failed spiritual missions, etc.), this study is important as it examines matters that give rise to conflicts. Finally,
areas for future research are addressed. 相似文献

This study aimed to link two fields of research: conflict management and forgiveness. Adult participants (n = 122) and a validating sample of significant others (n = 122) completed measures of disposition to forgive, conflict style, emotion management, and perspective taking; and multi-dimensional models of their relationships were tested. Disposition to forgive was most consistently associated with problem solving and yielding conflict styles. Greater perspective taking was associated with greater forgiveness, and greater problem solving and yielding conflict styles, as well as with lesser fighting style; and perspective taking fully or partially mediated the relationship between ability to repair emotions and dispositions to forgive and problem solve during conflict. Significant other reports confirmed most of the findings based on self-report. 相似文献

This study explored possible deficits in selective attention brought about by Dementia of Alzheimer Type (DAT). In three experiments, we tested patients with early DAT, healthy elderly, and young adults under low memory demands to assess perceptual filtering, conflict resolution, and set switching abilities. We found no evidence of impaired perceptual filtering nor evidence of impaired conflict resolution in early DAT. In contrast, early DAT patients did exhibit a global cost in set switching consistent with an inability to maintain the goals of the task (mental set). We discuss these findings in relation to the DAT literature on executive attention, dual-tasking, and working memory. 相似文献

Research consistently shows that children exposed to interparental conflict are at-risk for experiencing psychopathology.
Establishing a link, however, between interparental conflict and maladjustment is not the same as understanding how specific outcomes manifest. Therefore, we examined the relation of interparental conflict and appraisal with adolescent outcome
with 169 high school students (ages 14–19 years). Specifically, threat and self-blame appraisals were hypothesized to mediate
the relation between interparental conflict and both adaptive and maladaptive outcomes. Results suggest that threat partially
mediated the relation between interparental conflict and externalizing problems, interparental conflict and internalizing
problems, and interparental conflict and adaptive behaviors. Additionally, self-blame appears to partially mediate the relation
between interparental conflict and internalizing problems. Implications of the current findings are discussed. 相似文献

Family conflict is exacerbated by poverty-related stress and is detrimental to adolescent mental health. Adolescent coping
with family conflict has the potential to buffer or exacerbate the negative effects of family conflict on internalizing symptoms.
We examined coping with family conflict among 82 low-income adolescents (53.7% female, mean age = 13.5 years at Time 1, SD = 1.98;
range 11–18), and their primary caregivers (95% female, mean age = 34.9 years, SD = 7.45). Adolescents were 25.9% Caucasian,
28.4% African American, 38.3% Hispanic, and 7.4% Other (Multi-racial, Native American, or Asian). Results show that family
conflict is more strongly associated with internalizing symptoms for adolescents under high levels of poverty-related stress.
Regression analyses indicate that secondary control coping moderates the effects of family conflict on internalizing symptoms.
In addition, analyses reveal that disengagement coping exacerbates symptoms across time for both adolescent girls and boys.
Regression analyses also suggest that primary control coping is helpful for coping with family conflict, but only for girls.
Results highlight the importance of examining coping concurrently and across time as well as including moderating effects
of gender. Intervention efforts targeting low-income adolescents should incorporate the instruction of secondary control strategies
for coping with family conflict. 相似文献
