Executive function (EF) development is remarkable in early childhood. EF is an ability that provides a foundation for future success; accordingly, supporting children during their early childhood is crucial. So far, there have been many findings on EF in early childhood based on behavioral observation. This exploratory case study examines the measurement of prefrontal cortex activity during the performance of EF tasks using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). This study aims to explore the following hypothesis. (1) The prefrontal cortex during early childhood becomes more active as a task becomes more difficult. (2) However, brain activity decreases and stabilizes as time progresses. (3) The evaluation can be easily measured with two-channel fNIRS. Experimental results showed that the preschooler and the child in lower elementary school displayed high levels of brain activity in the order of increasing difficulty in terms of behavioral indicators. Moreover, the preschooler showed higher levels of reaction than the child in lower elementary school. This result is useful and will broaden the perspectives of scholars in the fields of psychology, pedagogy, and neuroscience, those involved in child support.
执行功能(EF)的发展在儿童早期是显著的。EF是一种为未来成功奠定基础的能力;因此,在儿童早期为其提供支持至关重要。到目前为止,已有许多基于行为观察的儿童早期EF研究结果。这项探索性案例研究使用功能性近红外光谱(fNIRS)检测了EF任务执行过程中前额叶皮层活动的测量。本研究旨在探讨以下假设。(1) 当任务变得更加困难时,儿童早期的前额叶皮层变得更加活跃。(2) 然而,随着时间的推移,大脑活动会减少并稳定下来。(3) 使用双通道fNIRS可以很容易地测量评估。实验结果表明,学龄前儿童和小学低年级儿童在行为指标方面表现出高水平的大脑活动,其难度顺序为增加。此外,学龄前儿童的反应水平高于小学低年级的儿童。这一结果是有用的,并将拓宽心理学、教育学和神经科学领域的学者的视野,这些领域涉及儿童支持。

Unpacking Planning Fallacy 拆解计划谬误
Pub Date : 2021-05-31 DOI: 10.5539/IJPS.V13N2P84
M. Huang
This study was conducted to determine whether planning fallacy can be affected through the action of unpacking a to-do list. The study uses two surveys on a specific population of Amazon Turk workers and randomly assigned participants to each of the two surveys. The survey produced discrete responses that can be used to statistically determine the effect of unpacking on the effect of planning fallacy. The data were collected and analyzed through data analysis tools and the statistical concept of T-Test. Although the manipulation of unpacking a to-do list was evidently present in the experimental group, the results failed to prove the initial hypothesis that unpacking a to-do list reduces the effect of planning fallacy. 
这项研究旨在确定打开待办事项清单的行为是否会影响计划谬误。这项研究使用了两项针对亚马逊土耳其工人特定人群的调查,并将参与者随机分配到两项调查中的每一项。该调查产生了离散的回答,可用于统计确定开箱对计划谬误影响的影响。通过数据分析工具和T检验的统计概念对数据进行收集和分析。尽管在实验组中明显存在打开待办事项清单的操作,但结果未能证明最初的假设,即打开待办事项列表可以减少计划谬误的影响。

Mainstream psychology of parenting styles minimizes the wisdom of mothers in being able to navigate parenting within a complex ever-changing system. This empirical study involves in-depth interviews conducted in two different contexts. This paper explores the major concerns mothers have about their child-rearing experiences, their children’s welfare, and the impact that these concerns have had on their personal wellbeing. The paper will outline some ways in which mothers attempt to address the barriers to a fulfilling mother-child relationship.

Loves Me or Loves Me Not? Passing through the Forest of Love Symbols and Unveiling Its Social Nature 爱我还是不爱我?穿越爱的象征森林,揭开爱的社会本质
Pub Date : 2021-05-21 DOI: 10.5539/IJPS.V13N2P73

This article unveils how love, as a signified, can be constituted by the artificially constructed symbolic signs (“signifiers”) represented in our everyday life. Only when we regard love as a symbolic system and try to decipher its meanings can we understand how love is transmitted through sociomental patterns. This article attempts to provide examples from language, symbolic materials, the imprinted body, the code of temporality, and the spatial aspect to interpret the general elements that commonly form the forest of love symbols. Moreover, this article introduces cognitive sociology as a significant analytic approach to examining love. On the one hand, taking the “semantic square” proposed by Zerubavel, I articulate that when we want to understand the meanings of symbols, we usually have to embed them into their symbolic context. On the other hand, based on the distinction between marked and unmarked social categories proposed by Brekhus, I explain that more often than not, we can shed light on the marked love types even when we focus on love issues. Last, this article reminds us that the symbols of love are not fixed and constant but change according to the transformations of context.
这篇文章揭示了爱作为一种所指,是如何由我们日常生活中所代表的人工构建的象征符号(“能指”)构成的。只有当我们把爱视为一个象征系统,并试图解读它的含义时,我们才能理解爱是如何通过社会心理模式传递的。本文试图从语言、象征材料、印记体、时间性代码和空间方面提供例子,来解释通常形成爱情象征森林的一般元素。此外,本文还介绍了认知社会学作为研究爱情的一种重要分析方法。一方面,以泽鲁巴维尔提出的“语义广场”为例,我阐明了当我们想要理解符号的含义时,我们通常必须将它们嵌入到它们的符号上下文中。另一方面,基于Brekhus提出的有标记和无标记的社会类别之间的区别,我解释说,通常情况下,即使我们关注爱情问题,我们也可以揭示有标记的爱情类型。最后,本文提醒我们,爱的象征不是固定不变的,而是随着语境的变化而变化的。

Despite the recent literature on sex-related anatomic, maturational and functional brain differences, the study of significant individual developments in math learning and achievement has scarcely approached this perspective. We aimed to compare the influence of sex in functional brain connectivity and behavioral measures in a numerical comparison task. Therefore, a group of school children with ages from 8 to 11 years old was evaluated during a number comparison task. Even though the behavioral performance was similar across the sexes, males distinctly showed a significant correlation between their math WRAT-4 scores and the number of correct responses in the experimental task and working memory scores. Besides, the analysis of the concurrent EEG during task performance showed that males comparatively had a greater brain left intra-hemispheric connectivity, as well as greater interhemispheric connectivity, particularly in Theta and Alpha bands during task performing -as compared to resting-. In contrast, females showed a significantly different decrement of brain connectivity in the Alpha band from resting to task performing. Present results are interpreted as probably reflecting sex-related maturational dissimilarities in neurodevelopment, along with the progressive development of more efficient cognitive strategies, processes running not necessarily parallel in both sexes.
尽管最近有关于与性别相关的解剖、成熟和功能大脑差异的文献,但对数学学习和成就的重要个体发展的研究几乎没有接近这一观点。我们的目的是在一个数值比较任务中比较性别对功能性脑连接和行为测量的影响。因此,在一项数字比较任务中,对一组年龄在8到11岁之间的学童进行了评估。尽管男女之间的行为表现相似,但男性的数学WRAT-4分数与实验任务中正确回答的次数和工作记忆分数之间明显存在显著的相关性。此外,任务执行期间的并发脑电图分析显示,相对而言,男性在执行任务期间具有更大的左脑半球内连通性,以及更大的半球间连通性,特别是在Theta和Alpha波段-与休息相比-。相比之下,从休息到执行任务,女性在Alpha波段的大脑连通性下降明显不同。目前的结果被解释为可能反映了神经发育中与性别相关的成熟差异,以及更有效的认知策略的逐步发展,这些过程不一定在两性中平行运行。

The flourishing Scale (FS) is a measure of overall life well-being. The aim of the study was to assess the psychometric properties and measurement invariance of the Arabic version of the FS in the Saudi Arabian context. Data was collected from two samples: 969 students at two universities and 299 full-time employees working in multiple sectors. Internal consistency of the FS was examined by calculating Cronbach’s alpha coefficient to test relaibility. To evaluate convergent and discriminant validity, the FS was compared with other measures of well-being, happiness, and depression. In order to examine the factor structure and the measurement invariance of the FS across study samples, confirmatory factor analysis and multi-group confirmatory factor analysis were performed. The FS showed good internal reliability as well as convergent and discriminant validity. Results also provided support for a one-factor and an invariant structure of the FS. Taken together, these results suggest that the FS Arabic version is a reliable and valid measure for the Arabic cultural context.
繁荣量表(FS)是衡量整体生活幸福感的指标。本研究的目的是评估阿拉伯版本FS在沙特阿拉伯背景下的心理测量特性和测量不变性。数据来自两个样本:两所大学的969名学生和299名在多个部门工作的全职员工。FS的内部一致性通过计算Cronbachα系数来检验相关性。为了评估收敛有效性和判别有效性,将FS与幸福感、幸福感和抑郁的其他指标进行了比较。为了检验FS在研究样本中的因子结构和测量不变性,进行了验证性因子分析和多组验证性因素分析。FS具有良好的内部信度、收敛性和判别有效性。结果还为FS的单因子和不变结构提供了支持。总之,这些结果表明,FS阿拉伯语版本是衡量阿拉伯文化背景的可靠和有效的标准。

EEG Patterns and Performance When Facing the Cardinal Directions 面对基本方向时的脑电图模式和表现
Pub Date : 2021-04-21 DOI: 10.5539/IJPS.V13N2P28
F. Travis, Jonathan B. Lipman, Niyazi Parim, Peter L. Hodak, Jacqueline J. Leete
1) Background and Objectives: Position in space and passage of time are encoded in the firing of thalamic, hippocampal and entorhinal cortices in rodents. Head direction cells have been reported in freely moving monkeys, and differential brain patterns have been observed in humans while playing a navigation video game and in response to changes in electromagnetic fields. The sensitivity of organisms to environmental and electromagnetic cues could explain recommendations from a traditional system of architecture, Vastu architecture, which recommends aligning homes to the cardinal directions. 2) Hypothesis: Vastu architecture predicts that facing east and north are more advantageous than facing west and south. If facing east and north are more advantageous, then subjects should show distinct EEG patterns and improved performance when facing east and north compared to west or south. 3) Materials and Methods: EEG coherence patterns from 32-channel EEG and time-to-complete jigsaw puzzles were compared while subjects faced the four cardinal directions. 4) Results: When facing east and north, subjects’ frontal beta2 and gamma EEG coherence were significantly higher, and they assembled jigsaw puzzles significantly faster than when facing west or south. 5) Discussion: The brain findings fit the performance data. Better focus, which would reasonably be related with faster performance, is associated with higher levels of beta2 and gamma coherence. 6) Conclusion: These data support the possibility that the human brain may be sensitive to cardinal directions. This highlights how intimately we are connected to the environment and suggests a factor that may be important in orienting work spaces and designing class rooms.
1) 背景和目的:啮齿类动物丘脑、海马和内嗅皮层的放电与空间位置和时间的流逝有关。据报道,在自由移动的猴子身上发现了头部方向细胞,在人类玩导航视频游戏时和对电磁场变化的反应中观察到了不同的大脑模式。生物体对环境和电磁信号的敏感性可以解释传统建筑系统Vastu建筑的建议,该系统建议将房屋与基本方向对齐。2) 假设:瓦斯图建筑预测面向东方和北方比面向西方和南方更有优势。如果朝东和朝北更有利,那么与向西或向南相比,受试者在朝东和向北时应该表现出不同的脑电图模式和更好的表现。3) 材料和方法:在受试者面对四个主要方向时,比较32通道脑电图的连贯模式和完成拼图的时间。4) 结果:当面对东方和北方时,受试者的额叶beta2和gamma EEG连贯性显著较高,并且他们组装拼图的速度显著快于面对西方或南方时。5) 讨论:大脑的发现与表现数据相符。更好的聚焦与更快的性能合理相关,与更高水平的β2和γ相干相关。6) 结论:这些数据支持了人类大脑可能对基本方向敏感的可能性。这突出了我们与环境的紧密联系,并提出了一个在确定工作空间和设计教室时可能很重要的因素。

This highlights how intimately we are connected to the environment and suggests a factor that may be important in orienting work spaces and designing class rooms.","PeriodicalId":90867,"journal":{"name":"International journal of psychological studies","volume":"13 1","pages":"28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44123613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Eating disorders are among the most stigmatized psychological disorders. Individuals with eating disorders are often blamed for their disorder. Stigma acts as a significant barrier to treatment. Health promotion outreach programs can successfully change knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors associated with disordered eating. The current study examined eating disorder stigma scores among attendees of Disordered Eating Awareness and Prevention week events at a public US university and compared their stigma scores to college students who did not attend the events. The study recruited 332 participants (n = 159 attendees, n = 173 non-attendees). Attendees completed a paper-and-pencil survey after each event and non-attendees participated in an online survey. The study found that participants who attended disordered eating outreach events reported lower stigma scores than those who did not attend. Furthermore, female gender and having a family member with an eating disorder was associated with lower stigma scores; however, having an eating disorder was not. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating stigma assessment in outreach programs and reducing stigma associated with eating disorders.
饮食失调是最常见的心理障碍。饮食失调的人经常被指责为他们的饮食失调。污名是治疗的重要障碍。健康促进外展项目可以成功地改变与饮食紊乱相关的知识、态度和行为。目前的研究调查了美国一所公立大学饮食意识和预防周活动参与者的饮食障碍污名评分,并将他们的污名评分与未参加活动的大学生进行了比较。该研究招募了332名参与者(159名参与者,173名非参与者)。与会者在每次活动后都完成了纸笔调查,非与会者则参加了在线调查。研究发现,参加饮食失调外展活动的参与者比没有参加的参与者报告的耻辱感得分更低。此外,女性和有饮食障碍的家庭成员与较低的污名评分有关;然而,饮食失调并不是。研究结果强调了将污名评估纳入外展计划和减少与饮食失调相关的污名的重要性。
