I'm conducting a research thesis on the effects of childhood/adulthood traumatic events on an individual's sexual risk taking and self harm behaviours, looking specifically at how this link is influenced by coping processes. I'm hoping to recruit males and females over the age of 18 who have no history of psychiatric disorder and who do not take psychiatric medication. The survey is completely anonymous, can be done online at your own convenience, and only takes 20 minutes to complete. The survey can be found on the following link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/M2DPBNZ

We are seeking to understand more about people's experiences of performance appraisals in the workplace (these are also known as performance review, performance evaluation, career development discussion, or employee appraisal, and they typically happen monthly, quarterly, biannually, or annually). You will be asked your opinion about your most recent appraisal/review, your recent behavior at work, and a few questions about your general personality. The survey will take approximately 10-15 minutes. We need only people who are currently employed in a paid job and have experienced some kind of review or appraisal at work – thank you for your time.

Online dating: Personality and the language we use. ::

Nicola Fox Hamilton, Chris Fullwood, Grainne Kirwan
University of Wolverhampton

This study is designed to examine whether personality traits are related to the use of particular language variables written in the “About Me” texts of online dating profiles, and to look at whether there are differences in the way this language is expressed by different cultures. The study will also examine the effect of gender, age, and sexual orientation on language correlated with personality traits. It is expected that usage of language variables in the profile texts will be found to correlate with personality traits, that there will be some differences in mean personality traits across the cultures that will be reflected in language differences.

Development of a Self-Report Measure of Reward Responsivity ::

John Hughes; Jean-François Etter
University of Vermont; University of Genevaonline pa

Decreased reward responsivity is usually defined as a reduction in the reinforcing efficacy of most rewards (nb – we are using the term “reward” to refer to presumed reinforcers). Anhedonia is a related concept that is typically defined as decreased pleasure from rewards. Apathy is also a related concept that is typically defined as reduced motivation to acquire rewards. However, there is often substantial overlap in how the three are defined. All three constructs have been hypothesized to occur in several psychiatric disorders such as depression, drug abuse, schizophrenia, and alexithymia. The aim of this study is to develop a self-report measure of reward responsivity/anhedonia/apathy.

This study examines the level of differentiation of young adults (18-22yrs). The theory of differentiation is related to the ability to regulate anxiety, maintain a solid sense of self, and direct one's own life while resisting familial pressure to conform.
