Houses Of Worship As Restorative Environments, Thomas R. Herzog, Pierre Ouellette, Jennifer R. Rolens, Angela M. Koenigs

This study of the restorative benefits of visiting a house of worship was based on questionnaire responses by 781 participants. Factor analysis of motivations for visiting yielded five factors, three of which matched those from a previous study (spirituality, beauty, and being away) and two new ones (contemplation and obligation). Factor analysis of activities at a house of worship yielded four factors along a gradient corresponding roughly to degree of organized religious practice: rituals, traditional activities, asking, and nonreligious activities. Spirituality and asking (for help or forgiveness) were the strongest predictors of positive outcomes, whereas nonreligious activities predicted negative outcomes. …

Enacted Support’S Links To Negative Affect And Perceived Support Are More Consistent With Theory When Social Influences Are Isolated From Trait Influences, Brian Lakey, Edward Orehek, Kate L. Hain, Meredith Vanvleet

Social support theory typically explains perceived support’s link to mental health as reflecting the role of specific supportive actions (i.e., enacted support). Yet enacted support typically is not linked to mental health and perceived support as predicted by theory. The links are examined among enacted support, affect, and perceived support when links reflected (a) aspects of support and affect that generalized across relationship partners and time (i.e., trait influences) and (b) aspects that reflected specific relationship partners (i.e., social influences). Multivariate generalizability analyses indicated that enacted support was linked to low negative affect as predicted by theory only when correlations …
Children's Understanding Of The Semantics Of Negation, Amanda Hiltz
Children's Understanding Of The Semantics Of Negation, Amanda Hiltz
Honors Projects
The central focus of this project is to discover children’s understanding of the semantics, or meaning, of negation. Children’s knowledge of negation develops, in part, by directing attention away from a word to something else (i.e., contrast classes), yet little is known about to what attention is directed. Two possible relations upon which contrast classes operate are taxonomic and thematic relations. For example, when looking at the concept of a “dog”, a thematic relation could be a dog bone, while a taxonomic relation would be a cat. Two experiments were completed to look at children’s use of thematic and taxonomic …
