الوصف: Although research on the association between subjective views of aging (VOA) and survival is scarce, more negative VOA have been found to be associated with increased all-cause mortality, even after controlling for possible confounders. Longitudinal studies on the predictive association of VOA with survival in individuals aged 80 years or older are, however, very limited. Thus, the aim of this study was to link adults’ awareness of age-related change (AARC), a multidimensional measure of adults’ subjective VOA, to survival time across a 3.5-year observation interval in advanced old age. To put the AARC construct in context, the study also considered related psychosocial concepts (i.e., perceived control and appraisal of life) essential for coping with late-life challenges as potential behavioral predictors of longevity. Data came from a representative panel study that included persons living in community and institutional settings. A total of 1,863 interviews were conducted at wave 1. This study used meta-data from wave 2 fieldwork 2 years after the initial assessment and death records obtained during panel maintenance after 3.5 years to estimate determinants of survival. Results showed that loss-related VOA indicated increased risk to survival, whereas gain-related VOA were predictive of longer survival. Both perceived age-related losses and perceived age-related gains exerted a significant independent effect on late-life mortality over and above socio-demographic background characteristics, perceived control, engagement with life, as well as health status. These findings suggest that the multidimensional examination of very old adults’ VOA may help to better understand successful longevity in the Fourth Age.

الوصف: Introduction: Control beliefs can protect against age-related declines in functioning. It is unclear whether neighborhood characteristics shape how much control people perceive over their life. This article studies associations of neighborhood characteristics with control beliefs of residents of a diverse metropolitan area (Berlin, Germany). Methods: We combine self-report data about perceptions of control obtained from participants in the Berlin Aging Study II ( N = 507, 60–87 years, 51% women) with multisource geo-referenced indicators of neighborhood characteristics using linear regression models. Results: Findings indicate that objective neighborhood characteristics (i.e., unemployment rate) are indeed tied to perceptions of control, in particular, how much control participants feel others have over their lives. Including neighborhood characteristics in part doubled the amount of explained variance compared with a reference model covarying for demographic characteristics only (from R 2 = 0.017 to R 2 = 0.030 for internal control beliefs; R 2 = 0.056 to R 2 = 0.102 for external control beliefs in chance; R 2 = 0.006 to R 2 = 0.030 for external control beliefs in powerful others). Discussion/Conclusion: Findings highlight the importance of access to neighborhood resources for control beliefs across old age and can inform interventions to build up neighborhood characteristics which might be especially helpful in residential areas with high unemployment.

مصطلحات موضوعية: IT identity, feature usage, exploratory usage, control beliefs, post-adoption
الوصف: Creative information technology usage by employees is the critical link between business technology investments and competitive advantage in a digital economy. However, to realize anticipated benefits, organizational leaders need a richer understanding of what drives individuals’ innovation with incumbent organizational technologies. In support of that aim, this study theorized the processes by which a new concept in IS research, IT identity, motivates different forms of IT usage in the post-adoption context. We mapped these processes to two variance models and validated IT identity’s influences for two different technologies. For theory, our results demonstrate IT identity’s role as a key determinant of IT feature and exploratory usage, refine understanding of the nomological net of IT use, and create new opportunities to understand individuals’ interactions with IT in the post-adoption context. For practice, this study offers actionable suggestions for how organizational leaders can encourage employees to leverage IT more effectively in their work. In doing so, this study opens the door for future investigations into the reciprocal relationship between individual IT usage and organizational and/or societal outcomes.

الوصف: Izyumtseva, Ganna V. M.Ed., Educational Department, Cedarville University, 2013. Worldview-Building Potential of Ukrainian ABC Bukwar Textbooks. The research study examined the worldview foundation undergirding the content of Soviet and contemporary Ukrainian ABC Bukwar textbooks (hereinafter referred to as theBukwar) to define whether, if at all, contemporary Bukwar has moved from the Soviet control beliefs, whether it stimulates the formation of a new conceptual vision of reality, necessary for building democratic society and formation of a new human resource. To conduct the study, I employed the grounded theory as a leading theoretical paradigm. The analysis has identified the position of Soviet and contemporary Bukwars on the metaphysical-epistemological questions (different positions on the question of metaphysics and epistemology result in different worldviews). The results were juxtaposed and interpreted in relation to the culture-worldview dynamic system; the role of Bukwar as a component of this system was identified. The findings reveal that contemporary Bukwars have moved from a totally atheistic foundation; however, the worldview base undergirding their content remains incoherent. The research study discusses the findings in the context of cultural and political transformations occurring in Ukrainian society.

الوصف: Background Exclusive breastfeeding is an important component of child survival and prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV in resource-poor settings like Malawi. In Malawi, children under the age of six months are exclusively breastfed for an average duration of 3.7 months. This falls short of the recommendations by the World Health Organization as well as the Malawi Ministry of Health that mothers exclusively breastfeed for the first six months of the child’s life. Understanding factors that influence exclusive breastfeeding duration among HIV-positive mothers is important in promoting exclusive breastfeeding among these mothers. An exploratory study was therefore conducted to determine factors that influence HIV-positive mothers’ prenatal intended duration of exclusive breastfeeding and their likelihood to exclusively breastfeed for six months. Methods This paper is based on data from a longitudinal, descriptive and correlation study that was conducted at Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital in Blantyre, Malawi between May 12, 2009 and March 22, 2010. Theory of Planned Behavior guided the study. A face-to-face survey was utilized to collect data from a convenience sample of 110 HIV-positive mothers who were at least 36 weeks pregnant at baseline. A modified and pre-tested breastfeeding attrition prediction tool was used to measure exclusive breastfeeding beliefs, intentions and external influences at baseline. Data were analyzed using descriptive and association statistics. Additionally, multiple regressions were run to determine significant predictors of HIV-positive mothers’ prenatal intended duration of exclusive breastfeeding and their likelihood to exclusively breastfeed for six months. Results Results revealed high exclusive breastfeeding prenatal intentions among HIV-positive mothers. Prenatal intended duration of exclusive breastfeeding was positively associated with normative, control beliefs and negatively associated with positive beliefs, maternal education and disclosure of HIV ...

الوصف: Die Paarbeziehung ist ein sozialer Kontext, der individuelle Entwicklung und erfolgreiches Altern beeinflusst. Größere Ähnlichkeit zwischen Partnern wird häufig als adaptiv für das Wohlbefinden des Individuums und die Qualität der Beziehung angesehen; neuere Übersichtsarbeiten weisen allerdings auf die Notwendigkeit diverserer Forschungsdesigns, Analysen und Stichproben hin, die auch das höhere Lebensalter umfassen. Diese Dissertation baut auf sozio-kontextuellen Theorien der Lebensspannenpsychologie auf, und nutzt Längsschnittdaten des Sozio-Ökonomischen Panels (SOEP) mit bis zu 31 jährlichen Erhebungen, sowie Experience Sampling Daten einer einwöchigen Tagebuchstudie zum Alltag älterer Ehepaare. Konkret werden a) die Wohlbefindensähnlichkeit zwischen Lebenspartnern über die Lebensspanne, ihre Korrelate und ihre Entwicklung über die Zeit beschrieben, b) die adaptive Funktionalität größerer Ähnlichkeit im affektiven und evaluativen Wohlbefinden für die Beziehung analysiert sowie c) die Rolle der Kontrollüberzeugung des Partners für das Wohlbefinden des Individuums untersucht. Partner wurden sich nicht ähnlicher in ihrer Lebenszufriedenheit über Jahre und Jahrzehnte, wie Mehrebenenwachstumsmodelle zeigten, allerdings war größere, und steigende, Ähnlichkeit prädiktiv für größere Zufriedenheit mit dem Familienleben. Größere durchschnittliche, und Momente von überdurchschnittlicher Ähnlichkeit im negativen Affekt war assoziiert mit dem Gefühl, den Alltag mit dem Partner gemeinsam besser zu meistern. Größere Kontrollüberzeugung als üblich im einen Partner gingen einher mit höherem Wohlbefinden im anderen Partner, wie Actor-Partner-Interdependence-Modelle zeigen konnten. Die Ergebnisse werden im Rahmen des kollektiven Modells selektiver Optimierung mit Kompensation diskutiert und betonen ein weiteres Mal die Wichtigkeit von Partner- und Beziehungsdynamiken sowie individueller und dyadischer Kontrollüberzeugung für Wohlbefinden und erfolgreiches Altern.
The romantic relationship is a social context that influences individual development and successful aging. Greater similarity between partners, e.g. in emotional well-being, has often been argued to be beneficial for the faring of individual and relationship; however, recent reviews suggest the need for more diverse designs, analyses and samples, which cover not only earlier but also later points in the lifespan. The aim of this dissertation is to make a solid contribution to our understanding of well-being similarity and dynamics between romantic partners across the lifespan and in old age. To do so, it draws on notions of socio-contextual theories of lifespan development and utilizes data from a macrolongitudinal study spanning more than 31 annual waves (SOEP) and an extensive experience sampling study on older couples’ everyday life. Specifically, this dissertation a) describes the nature and development of well-being similarity over time and its correlates b) investigates the adaptive potential of well-being similarity for relationship functioning, and c) explores how the individual’s well-being is influenced by the partner’s control perceptions. Multilevel growth models showed that partners did not grow more similar over time in their life satisfaction, and that greater, and increasing, similarity in life satisfaction similarity predicted greater satisfaction with family life. Actor–partner interdependence models revealed that average, and momentary, similarity in negative affect was positively related to everyday perceptions of dyadic mastery, and that the partner's higher momentary control beliefs were associated with lower negative affect in the individual.وصف الملف: application/pdf

الوصف: BackgroundExternal housing-related control beliefs (HCB) and general self-efficacy (GSE) influence different health outcomes in the general ageing population, but there is no information of their role in people ageing with Parkinson’s disease (PD). This study aimed to longitudinally assess the role of external HCB and GSE on the association between housing accessibility and activities of daily living (ADL) among people ageing with PD.MethodsBaseline and 3-year follow-up data on 130 community-living participants from the Swedish project ‘Home and Health in People Ageing with PD’ were collected. Assessments addressed housing accessibility, external HCB, GSE, generic ADL and ADL specific to PD. The moderating effects of external HCB and GSE were assessed by including an interaction term in multivariable logistic regression.ResultsThere were statistically significant interactions between housing accessibility and GSE on ADL (p = 0.03), and housing accessibility and external HCB on PD specific ADL (p = 0.03). After stratifying the analyses by GSE, housing accessibility problems led to more dependence and difficulty in ADL in participants with low GSE (OR 1.14; 95% CI 1.02–1.28). After stratifying by external HCB, housing accessibility increased dependence and difficulty in PD specific ADL in participants with low external HCB (OR 1.35; 95% CI 1.03–1.76).DiscussionThe results suggest that housing accessibility predicts ADL in people with PD with GSE and external HCB playing a moderating role for generic ADL and ADL specific to PD, respectively. Further longitudinal studies should validate these findings and explore their potential application in PD-related care and rehabilitation.

الوصف: Die Grundlagen für das Verantwortungsgefühl werden phylogenetisch sowie onto- und aktualgenetisch im Kontext der Fähigkeit zu volitivem Handeln abgeleitet. Es wird gezeigt, dass das Individuum erst mit der bewussten Plan- und Steuerbarkeit des eigenen Handelns zunehmend dafür verantwortlich gemacht werden kann, was es tut und was es unterlässt. Je sachkundiger es dann entscheidet und handelt, desto mehr wird es zum Subjekt seiner Lebensgestaltung. Vielfältige und persönlich relevante Informations- und Einflussmöglichkeiten fördern nicht nur Motiventwicklung und persönliches Verantwortungsgefühl, sie begünstigen auch ein sachadäquates und stabiles, aber keineswegs starres Motiv- und Wertsystem. Dabei geht es nicht schlechthin um internale Kontrollüberzeugungen, sondern um relevante, reale Einflussmöglichkeiten in bedeutsamen, lebenstypischen Entscheidungssituationen. Willkürliche Kontrolle und Einengung der Informations- und Einflussmöglichkeiten dagegen kennzeichnen autoritäre Erziehung und autoritäre Herrschaft. Zivilcourage ist auch in demokratisch verfassten Gesellschaften eher selten. Forderungen nach Loyalität stehen dem oft entgegen und werden viel zu selten hinterfragt. Besonders gravierende Probleme ergeben sich daraus in Zeiten sozialen und politischen Wandels. Die Möglichkeit des Subjektseins erlegt Personen die Verantwortung auf, sich der sich ändernden gesellschaftlichen Wirklichkeit nicht nur anzupassen, sondern sie ihren Werten gemäß mitzugestalten.

الوصف: At present, adolescents’ photo-taking and photo-sharing on social media represent ubiquitous practices and objectified body consciousness (OBC) might offer a useful framework to explore online self-presentation and social networking site (SNS) use. Indeed, SNS might represent a highly accessible medium for socializing with self-objectification. However, the relationship between OBC components and problematic SNS use is still understudied. The present study evaluated the previously unexplored predictive role of appearance control beliefs on problematic SNS use, testing the mediating effect of body image control in photos (BICP) across male and female groups. A total of 693 adolescents (55% females; mean age 16 years) participated in the study. Results showed the negatively predictive role of appearance control beliefs on control over body image in photos. Moreover, BICP mediated the appearance control beliefs’ negative effect on problematic SNS use in girls. The present study tested the unexplored effect of appearance control beliefs upon problematic SNS use, contributing to the OBC research field and the ongoing debate concerning predictive and protective factors in problematic SNS use.

الوصف: Background Housing-related control beliefs are associated with aspects of health among older people in general. Research on Parkinson’s disease (PD) focusing on perceptions of the home are rare and instruments capturing perceived aspects of home have seldom been used. Aims To evaluate psychometric properties of the external Housing-related Control Beliefs Questionnaire (HCQ) among people with PD. Methods The external HCQ were administrated to 245 participants with PD, (mean age = 69.9 years; mean PD duration = 9.7 years). External HCQ has 16-items, with five response options. The psychometric properties evaluated were data quality, structural validity (factor analysis), floor and ceiling effects, corrected item total correlations, internal consistency and construct validity (testing correlations with relevant constructs according to pre-defined hypotheses). Results Data quality was high. Structural validity showed a unidimensional construct with removal of two items. Homogeneity was questionable, but strengthened after the removal of the two items. For the 14-item version internal consistency was α = 0.78 and SEM 4.47. Corrected item total correlation ranged between 0.31 and 0.54 and no floor or ceiling effects. Significant correlations with relevant constructs supported the construct validity. Conclusions Taken together, the psychometric results suggest a 14-item version of the external HCQ to be sufficiently reliable and valid for use in the PD population. The results pave the way for further studies, using the HCQ to analyse how perceptions of control of the home may be associated with health among people ageing with PD.
