The Annual Mary Lou Fulton Mentored Research Conference is a fall day event designed to showcase mentored student learning. It is an opportunity for students to present and explain their research to the public and their peers. The fourth annual conference took place on April 3, 2008, and students from all departments in the College of Family, Home, and Social Sciences were invited to participate. Abstracts of the presenting undergraduate psychology students are featured here in Intuition.
Rumination And Cognitive Ability In Undergraduate Females
Rumination And Cognitive Ability In Undergraduate Females
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
The present study investigated the hypothesis that rumination, induced through a negative-based self reflection questionnaire would hinder cognitive ability in undergraduate females, as measured by an anagram test. Sixty-eight females from Brigham Young University took an anagram test and filled out the Beck Depression Inventory, the Burns Anxiety Inventory, and Rumination Responses Scale. Thirty-seven of these participants also filled out a Rumination Induction Questionnaire (RIQ) before taking the anagram test. Manipulation checks indicated that the Rumination Induction Questionnaire was an ineffective method for inducing rumination. Results did not support the original hypothesis. Instead, results showed that those who took the …
Gender And The Appreciation Of Physically Aggressive "Slapstick" Humor
Gender And The Appreciation Of Physically Aggressive "Slapstick" Humor
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
This study investigated gender differences in the appreciation of slapstick humor. Participants included 28 male and 29 female undergraduates at Brigham Young University. Participants rated three humorous video clips (slapstick, wordplay, and non-sequitur) using a five question, seven point Likert-type rating scale. The results of the study supported our hypothesis that men would rate slapstick humor as funnier than women would. This suggests that gender differences in physical aggression influence perception of humor.
Leadership Skills: Developing A Measure For College Skills
Leadership Skills: Developing A Measure For College Skills
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
Strong leaders are in high demand in many of today's disciplines. Many characteristics and skills contribute to the emergence and success of leaders. It is important to assess these skills and characteristics in order to better fol.fill the leadership demands of employers and other organizations. The current measure aims to assess leadership abilities in college students in order to identify good leaders and the characteristics that they possess. A Likert Scale measurement was created and administered to 50 university students. Statistical analysis showed the scale to be psychometrically sound. Items correlated highly with one another and the cronbach's alpha was …

The Verbal Overshadowing Effect: Influence On Perception
The Verbal Overshadowing Effect: Influence On Perception
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
The current study aims to observe alterations on perception of attractiveness due to the Verbal Overshadowing Effect (VOE). University students (N=458, 178 males and 280 females) participated in a study where two faces were shown, one male and one female, for 5 seconds. The experimental group verbalized their perception of the face and then immediately rated the attractiveness of the face on a Likert scale ranging from 1-7. It is hypothesized that describing the face will influence the rating of attractiveness, and that gender will also influence perception. Statistical analysis supported the hypothesis and revealed significance in the factor of …

Effects Of L.D.S. Doctrine Versus L.D.S. Culture On Self-Esteem
Effects Of L.D.S. Doctrine Versus L.D.S. Culture On Self-Esteem
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
It was hypothesized that BYU students would report a comparatively high self esteem when exposed to LDS doctrine and a lower self esteem when exposed to LDS culture. A self report survey on self esteem was administered to three groups of subjects. One group viewed a stimulus representing LDS doctrine, one viewed a stimulus representing LDS culture, and the control group viewed no stimulus. The hypothesis was supported by the results.
The Halo Effect And Religiosity: Are Attractive People Perceived As More Religious?
The Halo Effect And Religiosity: Are Attractive People Perceived As More Religious?
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
A photograph rating study assessed religiosity perceptions relating to the halo effect. The halo effect is a phenomenon describing the tendency that people have to attribute positive characteristics to those possessing other, unrelated positive characteristics. In the preliminary study, subjects from BYU rated the attractiveness of photographs of college-aged men and women. The primary study used the photographs with the highest and lowest attractiveness ratings. Subjects rated them on a scale of perceived religiosity. As hypothesized, attractive females received higher religiosity ratings then unattractive females. Attractive males received higher religiosity ratings than unattractive males. Attractive females received the highest religiosity …
Ego Depletion: A Contributing Factor Of Hopelessness Depression
Ego Depletion: A Contributing Factor Of Hopelessness Depression
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
Ego depletion is mental exhaustion from regulation of conflicting internal desires. We hypothesized that this exhaustion would cause a pessimistic outlook on futureevent thinking. Eighty-one university students were given a simple reading task designed to deplete the egos of half the subjects ( experimental group) and have no effect on the other half ( control group). Following the task they were given the Future Events Scale (FES) to assess how positive or negative they viewed their future. Those who were ego-depleted scored lower on the FES (p< .044) than those who weren't. This suggests that ego depletion is part of the causal chain of hopelessness depression, because those with a lower score on the FES have a more hopeless attitude.
How Accents Affect Perception Of Intelligence, Physical Attractiveness, And Trustworthiness Of Middle-Easter-, Latin-American-, British- And Standard-American-English-Accented Speakers
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
Accent Prestige theory states that accents are used as cues to judge characteristics of the accented speaker. In this study, four accents were recorded and later played for the participants: Standard-American, Middle-Eastern, Latin-American, and British. Participants filled out a questionnaire rating perceived intelligence, trustworthiness, and physical attractiveness of the recorded accent , as well as a demographics questionnaire. The authors predict the following: Middle-Eastern- and Latin-accented speakers will be rated lower on the three scales than standard-American-accented speakers, and the British-accented speaker will be rated higher. Statistical significance was obtained on physical attractiveness ratings and on intelligence ratings. p<.05. The results do not support accent prestige theory. The authors call for further research to be conducted to discover the real affect of accent on perception.
An Interview With Dr. Edwin E. Gantt
An Interview With Dr. Edwin E. Gantt
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
Dr. Edwin E. Gantt, a BYU Associate Professor of Psychology, is one of the student body's favorite members of the BYU Department of Psychology. He was awarded the Teacher of Honor Award by the Brigham Young University Student Honor Association in 2002. His unique perspective has influenced numerous students to consider psychology from alternative points of view and from within the context of revealed latter-day truths. Dr. Gantt is particularly interested in examining the various (and often problematic) ways in which empathy, altruism and religion have been conceptualized and explained in many of the major schools of contemporary psychology and …

Confused Existentialism As A Factor In College Students' Depression
Confused Existentialism As A Factor In College Students' Depression
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
Although “meaning in life” and “existentialism” may be considered ambiguous in psychology, the former term became a psychological construct with implications for psychological well-being. In young adulthood, the transition to college can be a difficult process because of social pressures incident to the adjustment to adulthood, including the need to establish an adult identity. Consequently, meaning in life may be overlooked in the confusion. I argue that a focus on meaning in life can be beneficial for college students in moderating their short- and long-term perspectives, physical health, and emotional health.

Altruism In The Context Of Door-Courtesy Behaviors Among College Students
Altruism In The Context Of Door-Courtesy Behaviors Among College Students
Intuition: The BYU Undergraduate Journal of Psychology
Altruism has been debated as both selfishly and selflessly motivated Though there are many possible illustrations of altruism in daily activities, a simple model to measure altruism is observing door-holding behaviors. This study observes the door-holding behavior patterns of undergraduate college students, assessing the sex differences and the possibility of an altruistic theme within the observed population. A general sex difference was found illustrating that males hold the door more often than females. Implications of the results are discussed
