An Investigation Of The Impact Of Prosocial Action On Psychological Resilience In Female Volunteer Maskmakers During Covid-19, Linda D. Montano
An Investigation Of The Impact Of Prosocial Action On Psychological Resilience In Female Volunteer Maskmakers During Covid-19, Linda D. Montano
Industrial-Organizational Psychology Dissertations
Building and maintaining psychological resilience is important because it mediates the impact of stress on life outcomes such as depression, life satisfaction, and well-being. The purpose of this dissertation was to assess the impact of prosocial action as a way to enhance resilience and reduce the impact of adversity. Using 12 waves of longitudinal data collected from 86 female volunteer maskmakers in the U.S. between April and July 2020, this study assessed the hypothesis that the prosocial action of maskmaking will moderate the impact of the stress of the COVID-19 pandemic such that at higher levels of maskmaking, the volunteer’s …
Prospective Relationship Between Co-Rumination And Depressive Symptoms In Early Adolescence: Brooding Rumination As A Mechanism, Katherine S. Benjamin
Prospective Relationship Between Co-Rumination And Depressive Symptoms In Early Adolescence: Brooding Rumination As A Mechanism, Katherine S. Benjamin
Clinical Psychology Dissertations
Adolescence is a developmental period during which there is a significant increase in depressive symptoms. Both interpersonal and intrapersonal emotion regulation strategies, including co-rumination and rumination, contribute to the development of depressive symptoms. However, there has been relatively little research investigating the connections between co-rumination and rumination and their associations with depression. Theories of depression, such as interpersonal theories and Response Styles Theory suggest that both relational processes and the ways in which an individual responds internally may promote and maintain depressive symptoms. The current study examined whether brooding rumination serves as the mechanism explaining the relationship between co-rumination and …
Implicit Trait Policies And Situational Judgment Tests: How Personality Shapes Judgments Of Effective Behavior, Alexander Edward Johnson
Implicit Trait Policies And Situational Judgment Tests: How Personality Shapes Judgments Of Effective Behavior, Alexander Edward Johnson
Industrial-Organizational Psychology Dissertations
The Situational Judgment Test (SJT) is a popular selection tool used by employers to
make hiring decisions due to their strong predictive validity. SJTs present job candidates with
hypothetical scenarios, asking them to choose the responses that best fit those situations. SJTs
have been used to measure a range of knowledge, skills, and abilities, but what they measure and
why they predict performance remains unclear. Lievens and Motowidlo (2016) called for a
reframing of the SJT as a measure of general domain knowledge. According to their theory, SJTs
measure procedural knowledge, which is composed of general domain knowledge—
operationalized as …
Suicidal Ideation And Community Connectedness In Lgbtq+ Adults: Can Emotion Regulation And Mindfulness Skills Help?, Samantha V. Jacobson
Suicidal Ideation And Community Connectedness In Lgbtq+ Adults: Can Emotion Regulation And Mindfulness Skills Help?, Samantha V. Jacobson
Clinical Psychology Dissertations
Suicidal ideation disproportionally affects the LGBTQ+ community. Community connectedness and mindfulness can be protective against suicidal ideation, whereas emotion regulation difficulty is associated with increased suicidal ideation. Community connectedness, emotion regulation difficulty and mindfulness have demonstrated relationships to each other in the LGBTQ+ community and while they are each independently associated with suicidal ideation, their combined impact on suicidal ideation has not yet been examined. The present study examines moderating effects of emotion regulation difficulty and mindfulness on the relationship between community connectedness and suicidal ideation in LGBTQ+ adults. 141 LGBTQ+ adults completed self-report measures of suicidal ideation, community connectedness, …

Recentering Psych Stats, Lynette Bikos
Recentering Psych Stats, Lynette Bikos
Faculty Open Access Books
To center a variable in regression means to set its value at zero and interpret all other values in relation to this reference point. Regarding race and gender, researchers often center male and White at zero. Further, it is typical that research vignettes in statistics textbooks are similarly seated in a White, Western (frequently U.S.), heteronormative, framework. ReCentering Psych Stats seeks to provide statistics training for psychology students (undergraduate, graduate, and post-doctoral) in a socially and culturally responsive way. All lessons use the open-source statistics program, R (and its associated packages). Each chapter includes a screencast lesson, features a workflow …
Nmda Receptor Inhibition On Rodent Optimal Decision-Making In The Diminishing Returns Task, Seth Foust
Nmda Receptor Inhibition On Rodent Optimal Decision-Making In The Diminishing Returns Task, Seth Foust
Research Psychology Theses
There has been growing interest in using N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists as treatments for mood disorders, but there is still much to learn about their cognitive effects. Research shows NMDA receptors can affect decision-making, and the antagonist MK-801 has had varying effects in rodents. Specifically, some have reported impairments in working memory while foraging behaviors remained intact, while others have demonstrated changes in choice behavior related to delay or risk in behavior tasks. We investigated the role of NMDA receptors in the specific paradigm of optimal decision-making to further confirm MK-801’s effects and to explore whether inhibiting NMDA receptors alters …
Love And Hate Across The Us Political Spectrum, Joseph Walker
Love And Hate Across The Us Political Spectrum, Joseph Walker
Research Psychology Theses
Twitter is a vast source of qualitative and quantitative data on human interaction. This proposed study examines group identity strength (GIS), measured as how strongly one identifies with a group, as a factor of positive and negative partisanship in the US by observing tweets and follower interactions. The top 10 words collocated with “love” and “hate” will be analyzed for each level of GIS for liberals and conservatives. Expected findings are that those with stronger GIS will display more in-group favoritism than out-group animosity, and that the top collocates of love and hate will be different for liberals and conservatives.
The Moderating Effect Of Race On Ipts Factors And Suicidal Ideation In A Military Sample, Shelan A. Porter
The Moderating Effect Of Race On Ipts Factors And Suicidal Ideation In A Military Sample, Shelan A. Porter
Research Psychology Theses
Suicide rates have increased over the last 20 years in all ethnic and racial groups in the US, but most prominently for veterans and non-white racial subgroups. Suicidal Ideation is a predictor for suicide but there is limited research looking at mental health differences in the at-risk military community due to race. 794 military personnel were surveyed electronically on a range of mental health measures in a southern US joint forces training center between 2014 and 2015. Guided by the Interpersonal-Psychological Theory of Suicide, this secondary data analysis considered the moderating effect of a three-group race model on the relationship …
Revisiting The Meaning Of The City And The Library, Michael Paulus
Revisiting The Meaning Of The City And The Library, Michael Paulus
SPU Works
We are living through an information revolution connected with automated information processing and artificial intelligence. Previous information revolutions, connected with information agencies and information artifacts, resulted in cities—described by Jacques Ellul in The Meaning of the City as artificial and autonomous systems—and libraries, which augment human intelligence through technological systems as well as related formative practices. The library remains an important institution and infrastructure for confronting challenges and opportunities associated with the latest form artificial agency, AI. Focusing on the history of the library, this paper explores the history of—and future possibilities for—the role of artificial agency in cultural development.
The Psychometric Evaluation Of Decent Work In India, Jadvir K. Gill
The Psychometric Evaluation Of Decent Work In India, Jadvir K. Gill
Industrial-Organizational Psychology Dissertations
Work has a high impact on an individual’s well-being, health, and the lives of their loved ones who depend on them (Ford et al., 2013). The Decent Work Scale, constructed by Duffy et. al. (2017), measures what it means to have access to decent work (safe conditions, time for leisure and rest, support for family and social values, adequate compensation, and access to adequate health care) in the United States. However, a gap in the social sciences is the lack of external validity. Psychological research has mainly focused its attention on western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic nations and then …
Identity And Body Image: How Bicultural Influences Affect The Development Of Negative Body Image And Disordered Eating In Korean American Adolescents, Abigail G. Brown
Identity And Body Image: How Bicultural Influences Affect The Development Of Negative Body Image And Disordered Eating In Korean American Adolescents, Abigail G. Brown
Honors Projects
The objective of this research project is to examine the existing literature related to culture, body image, and disordered eating in Korea and the United States as they are related to the identity and body image formation of Korean American adolescents in the United States. Because there is not much existing literature specifically investigating the experience of Korean American adolescents, this paper aims to synthesize the current research regarding Korean and United States culture to create a summary of factors that contribute to the development of negative body image and/or disordered eating in this population. In addition, these factors will …
Unhealed Wounds: From Complex Trauma Exposure To Wellbeing And The Role Of Coping, Mohammed K. Alsubaie
Unhealed Wounds: From Complex Trauma Exposure To Wellbeing And The Role Of Coping, Mohammed K. Alsubaie
Clinical Psychology Dissertations
Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (cPTSD) emerged as a theoretical construct reflecting symptoms beyond our current conceptualization of posttraumatic stress. Research examining its validity is still ongoing and cross-cultural research on the matter is emerging. An important risk factor to developing cPTSD is the experience of complex trauma, which constitutes experiences that reflect interpersonal violations of bodily boundary and integrity or betrayal (e.g., sexual assault and emotional abuse). There is still a gap in the literature linking complex trauma exposure to wellbeing or positive functioning in general. Survivors’ style of coping with trauma might influence later adjustment. With a sample of …
Distress Tolerance Mediates The Relationship Between Maternal And Paternal Helicopter Parenting And Disordered Eating Among Female Emerging Adults, Katie Savage, Rianna Miramontez, Olivia Gregorich, Emily Anderson, Kelly Walk, Jenny Lee Vaydich
Distress Tolerance Mediates The Relationship Between Maternal And Paternal Helicopter Parenting And Disordered Eating Among Female Emerging Adults, Katie Savage, Rianna Miramontez, Olivia Gregorich, Emily Anderson, Kelly Walk, Jenny Lee Vaydich
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Disordered eating (DE) has previously been associated with distress tolerance (DT) in emerging adults. Additionally, helicopter parenting has predicted DT and been linked to DE. The current study investigated the relationship between maternal (MHP) and paternal (PHP) helicopter parenting, DT, and DE in emerging adults. Analyses indicated DT mediates both MHP and PHP’s relationship with DE, βM = 0.02, 95% CIM[0.01, 0.05], βP = 0.03, 95% CIP[0.01, 0.06] in a sample of female undergraduate students. While previous research found connections between similar variables separately, this study is the first to the authors’ knowledge that found DT mediates this relationship.
Academic Motivation Across Groups: Generational Status, Gender, And Income, Tia Pu
Academic Motivation Across Groups: Generational Status, Gender, And Income, Tia Pu
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
The objective of this study is to examine how academic motivation (AM) varies by generational status, sex, and income. I hypothesized first-generation students are more intrinsically motivated, while multi-generational students are extrinsically motivated. I hypothesized there are little to no differences between sex. And when it comes to familial income, those >$60,000/year will be intrinsically motivated, while those <$60,000/year will be extrinsically motivated. N=176 participants completed an online survey (69.1% Female, 32.6% FGS, 40.6% >$60,000). Examining AM is an important area to study because knowing what factors affect motivation will aid in implementing changes that help students thrive in college.
Basal Metabolic Rate As A Potential Determinant In Risk Sensitive Foraging., Kathryn Van Maanen, Eric S. Long, Baine B. Craft
Basal Metabolic Rate As A Potential Determinant In Risk Sensitive Foraging., Kathryn Van Maanen, Eric S. Long, Baine B. Craft
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
In foraging, there are many possible determinants of an individual’s sensitivity to risk, such as an animal’s learning or various biological imperatives. However, few studies on risk sensitivity incorporate information about an animal’s metabolism. One measure of metabolic rate is basal metabolic rate (BMR), or the minimum rate at which metabolism must produce energy to maintain homeostasis, which is highly plastic. Therefore, we investigated a potential relationship between risk sensitivity and BMR. This metaanalysis revealed little to no relationship between BMR and risk sensitivity, perhaps because of the high intraspecific variation of each of these traits.

Effects Of Nmda Inhibition Of Rodent Decision-Making And Reward-Seeking Behavior, Hoda Aboueich, Hannah Doble, Seth Foust, Brandon Goh, Michael Mains, Bailey Wells, Phillip Baker
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
In this study, we are investigating the relationship between NMDA receptor antagonists and decision-making. Rats choose between a Fixed-Delay (FD) lever that dispensed a sugar pellet in ten-second intervals and a Progressive-Delay (PD) lever that dispensed a sugar pellet at progressively increasing time intervals of one second. After training on the optimal decision-making task, rats were injected with MK-801 in a randomized sequence of doses of 0.06 mL/g, 0.1 mL/ 0.2mL/g with saline as the control. Analysis of behaviors in relation to optimal choices is ongoing in relation to the varying doses of MK-801.
Effects Of Self-Efficacy, Belonging, And Overall Wellbeing On Minority Students Amidst Covid Pandemic., Eddie Cruz-Cruz, Ruth Addisu
Effects Of Self-Efficacy, Belonging, And Overall Wellbeing On Minority Students Amidst Covid Pandemic., Eddie Cruz-Cruz, Ruth Addisu
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
The covid pandemic created major shifts in everyday life. Many students’ college experiences were changed from on campus classes to remote learning. We investigated how minority students’ overall wellbeing, self-efficacy, and belonging scores impacted their GPA. We used a pre-existing dataset from a large midwestern university (N= 176; N=5 African American/Black, N=22 Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish Origin, N=19 Asian, N=108 White/Caucasian, N=5 Mixed, N= 17 N/A) to answer questions measuring Self-Efficacy, Belonging, and Overall Wellbeing, ANOVA models were used. Results indicated Self-Efficacy and Overall Wellbeing were statistically significant (p .52).
Emotion Dysregulation And Acquired Capability For Suicide: A Correlational Analysis, Ben Barnette, Janelle Wee, Molly Hassler, Johanna Knight, Keyne Law
Emotion Dysregulation And Acquired Capability For Suicide: A Correlational Analysis, Ben Barnette, Janelle Wee, Molly Hassler, Johanna Knight, Keyne Law
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This study examines the relationship between emotion dysregulation and acquired capability for suicide using self-report, behavioral, and physiological measures. Participants (N = 47) completed the Difficulties with Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS; Gratz & Roemer, 2004) and the Cold Pressor Task (CPT). Bivariate correlational analyses were conducted to examine the strength and direction of associations between several variables including participants’ age and gender, baseline emotion dysregulation (i.e., DERS scores), baseline respiratory sinus arrythmia (RSA) and withdrawal RSA, and pain tolerance, persistence, and threshold values. Results suggest that an individual’s ability to self-regulate at rest is associated with greater persistence through pain.
Emotion, Religious Coping, Stigma, And Help-Seeking Attitudes Among Asian Americans: Examination Of Moderated Mediation, Marcella Locke, Paul Kim
Emotion, Religious Coping, Stigma, And Help-Seeking Attitudes Among Asian Americans: Examination Of Moderated Mediation, Marcella Locke, Paul Kim
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Using a moderated mediation model, we investigated how emotion regulation, emotion socialization, and religious coping affect the relationship between close others’ stigma, self-stigma, and help-seeking among 106 Asian American students. We predicted that (a) self-stigma would positively mediate the close others’ stigma and help-seeking attitudes association, and (b) emotion regulation, emotion socialization, and religious coping would moderate this relationship. Mediation and moderated mediation analyses indicated that close others’ stigma predicted self-stigma, which in turn predicted help-seeking attitudes. This mediation model was moderated by religious coping but not emotional socialization or regulation; emotion regulation and help-seeking attitudes, however, were positively correlated.
Features Of Attachment In Father- Daughter Relationship And Depressive Symptoms In Daughters Among Emerging Adults, Yee Jie Ooi, Jenny Vaydich, Jessica Fossum
Features Of Attachment In Father- Daughter Relationship And Depressive Symptoms In Daughters Among Emerging Adults, Yee Jie Ooi, Jenny Vaydich, Jessica Fossum
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This study investigated the features of attachment in father-daughter relationships and their association with depressive symptoms in daughters during emerging adulthood. Drawing on attachment theory, 116 daughters from an existing data set who completed the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA) and Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CESD) was used to examine whether father-daughter trust, communication and alienation predict depressive symptoms in daughters. Data were analyzed using correlation and multiple linear regression. Findings indicated that alienation significantly predicted depressive symptoms negatively while trust and communication did not support the proposed hypotheses, they did not significantly predict depressive symptoms.

Machine Learning Analysis For Animal Behavior In Predator-Exposed Rodents, Hoda Aboueich, Michael Mains, Bailey Wells, Phillip Bakee
Machine Learning Analysis For Animal Behavior In Predator-Exposed Rodents, Hoda Aboueich, Michael Mains, Bailey Wells, Phillip Bakee
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Using machine learning analysis, we analyzed both rats and mice of different strain, sex, age, and housing in order to evaluate behavioral differences in exposure to a 3D printed owl predator that surges toward the center of an arena. As the rodent responded to the stimulus, we were able to evaluate behavioral patterns, such as time spent in hiding, freezing, fleeing, or near the walls of the arena. This will allow us to look at the overall movement trajectories prior to and during predator exposure across species.
Motivation And Resilience: Differences By Generational Status., Miranda Oddy, Tia Pu
Motivation And Resilience: Differences By Generational Status., Miranda Oddy, Tia Pu
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
This study explored whether intrinsic and extrinsic motivation differed between first-generation college students (FGCS) and multi-generation college students (MGCS) and whether resilience explains any of these variations. We hypothesized that FGCS demonstrate higher intrinsic motivation with higher resilience. 56 participants (mostly White and Hispanic, biologically female, 35.7% FGCS and 64.3% MGCS) completed the survey. Neither intrinsic nor extrinsic motivation varied by generational status, which did not change when controlling for resilience. We concluded that demographically different populations would need different kinds of support for motivation and resilience.
Personality And Remote Work/Education-Mode Preferences, Brittany Tausen, Brandon Wells
Personality And Remote Work/Education-Mode Preferences, Brittany Tausen, Brandon Wells
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
The pandemic accelerated the demand for remote work and education. Importantly, however, not all people thrive in remote environments. Taking a person x situation fit approach, this study explores the perceived connection between personality traits, work mode preferences, and corresponding outcomes. Qualitative data from focus group sessions with employees and students will be transcribed and analyzed. Themes from these sessions will contribute to a deeper understanding of how different people experience productivity, well-being, and belonging in remote vs. in-person work/education environments. Findings will inform future investigations about when and for whom each work/education mode is most effective.
Ruminative Subtypes As A Moderator Of The Relationship Between Self-Compassion And Suicidality, Erin Mcmeekin, Michelle Pei, Keyne Law
Ruminative Subtypes As A Moderator Of The Relationship Between Self-Compassion And Suicidality, Erin Mcmeekin, Michelle Pei, Keyne Law
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
We sought to determine whether ruminative subtypes modulate the relationship between self-compassion and thwarted belongingness (TB) and perceived burdensomeness (PB). The coalescence of PB and TB elicits suicidal desire (Van Orden et al., 2010). Self-compassion has been found to ameliorate suffering and self-blame, serving as a reliable protective factor for suicide (Sun et al., 2020). Rumination impacts the relationship between self-compassion and psychopathology (Raes, 2010) and the brooding subtype was consistently found as a risk factor for suicide (Rogers et al., 2017). Participants were undergraduate students (n =264; Mage = 20.85, SD= 5.29; 82% Female, 63% White) who completed the: …
South Asian Perspectives On The Lgbtq Community At A Christian Institution, Esal Shakil
South Asian Perspectives On The Lgbtq Community At A Christian Institution, Esal Shakil
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Current sociopolitical climates for LGBTQ individuals in South Asian countries are hostile. The negative beliefs that contribute to these climates are reflected in South Asian communities and religious Institutions within America, which can leave lasting impact on South Asian youths. The present study qualitatively analyzes how the South Asian and Christian university contexts intersect to influence the attitudes of South Asian college students. We conducted semi-structured interviews with six participants and used Braun and Clarke’s (2008) thematic analysis to identify and organize themes from the interviews. Some preliminary themes include South Asian communities considering LGBTQ issues to be taboo and …
The Psychology Of Protest: Activism Involvement And Burnout, Keyera Gaulden, Tara Shelby, Lynette Bikos
The Psychology Of Protest: Activism Involvement And Burnout, Keyera Gaulden, Tara Shelby, Lynette Bikos
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Since January 2021, the SPU community has protested policies that result in employment discrimination for the LGBTQIA+ community. We tested a model of indirect effects, predicting protest-related burnout directly from hours per week of protest activity and indirectly through eight work values. No work values predicted protest engagement and protest-related burnout was not predicted by weekly hours of protest engagement. The work value relationship, had an was inversely related to protest-related burnout (*B* = -0.293, *p* = 0.003); security was positively related to protest-related burnout (*B* = 0.150, *p* = 0.072). Our model predicted 31% of the protest burnout variance.
Loneliness In Covid-19 Pandemic Among Adults Impacted By Developmental Disabilities, Natalie Snodgrass, Thane Erickson, Beverly Wilson
Loneliness In Covid-19 Pandemic Among Adults Impacted By Developmental Disabilities, Natalie Snodgrass, Thane Erickson, Beverly Wilson
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
Developmental disabilities (DD) are lifelong conditions causing impairment in behavioral, language, physical, and cognitive functioning (Zablotsky et al., 2019). Individuals with DDs were at greater risk for health issues and experiencing loneliness pre-pandemic (Alexandria et al., 2021; Desroches et al., 2021). The COVID-19 pandemic may have further exacerbated loneliness but has yet to be explored in DDs. We plan to examine loneliness in adults impacted by DDs (adults and parents) in context of pandemic stress. Correlations and regression analyses will examine relationships between loneliness and pandemic stress, coping styles, anxiety, and depression.
Academic Motivation In First-Generation And Multi-Generation College Students: The Effect Of Family Influence, Ally Smith, Tia Pu, Esmeralda Bonilla-Quijada, Bella Sangston
Academic Motivation In First-Generation And Multi-Generation College Students: The Effect Of Family Influence, Ally Smith, Tia Pu, Esmeralda Bonilla-Quijada, Bella Sangston
School of Psychology, Family, and Community Research Conference
The purpose of this study was to examine differences in academic motivation of college students by generational status and to explore whether this relationship varies by family influence. This study was conducted via an online survey, and participants were recruited from a small, religious liberal arts university in the pacific northwest. No significant associations were found between academic motivation and generational status. When considering family influence, there was a significant positive correlation between intrinsic motivation and values/beliefs. This suggests the potential impact of familial values/beliefs on academic motivation and seeking to better understand the implications of different cultural backgrounds.
