:: Understanding Self-esteem ::
  Ista Zahn
University of Rochester
  The purpose of this study is to develop a better understanding of self-esteem. This study involves completing a survey, reading simple statements, and performing a reaction time task.

There is a possibility that you will be asked to read statements designed to put you in a negative mood. Do not participate in this study if you are uncomfortable with the idea of reading statements that may have this effect. This study takes about 15 minutes to complete. At the end of this study, you will be able to see your self-esteem scores, including a self-esteem measure designed to tap into your subconscious attitude toward yourself. You will be able to compare your self-esteem scores to those of other people who participate in this study.

:: An Internet Study: The relationships between men's self-reported physical attributes, body image, self-esteem and internet dating ::
  Annabel Chan, Gerard Kennedy
Victoria University, Australia
  There has been quite a lot of research conducted on women's body image and we have a reasonable understanding of the types of factors that impact on women's body image and that ultimately lead to disorders like Anorexia and Bulimia Nervosa. However, we know very little about men's body image and the factors that impinge on the way males think about their bodies. Consequently we also know very little about how this impacts on men's health. Do you want to do something about it? If so, you are invited to take part in a research project that will focus exclusively on men's body image. Previous research has highlighted the impact of men's physical attributes on body image and how men perceive their own body. The purpose of this study is to further explore the relationship between physical qualities of men, their body image and self-esteem, using an Internet sample. All men above the age of 18, who have at least basic literacy in English, are invited to participate in this study. If possible, please have a tape measure ready. The questionnaire consists of 62 mostly multiple-choice questions and should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Your responses will remain anonymous and no identifying information will be collected. You are free to withdraw from this study at any time.

:: Sense of Community and Personality Research Study ::
  Kath Boekamp
Curtin University, Perth, Western Australiaonline pa
  Most people know when they have a Sense of Community and when they don’t. There are many factors that contribute to the development of a Sense of Community. Some factors are Environmental (i.e., size of town/suburb), others are Individual factors (i.e. extroversion or optimism). Little research has been done on whether individual personality type factors have any bearing on how someone develops a Sense of Community. I’d like to invite you to take part in a study which will provide information to help us understand how people connect to their community as well as how we might support and even improve these connections. Each questionnaire includes instructions on the type of questions that will follow and the way to respond (such as giving a rating on a 5 point scale on how much you agree with a statement from very little to a lot). In total the survey should take you no longer than 30min, possibly less. All your responses to the questionnaires and personal information will be kept absolutely confidential. Your name will be converted to a code number, and only the anonymous group average data from all participants will be used for any published research.

:: 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.

:: Evaluation of Person Interactions ::
  Susanne Quadflieg
New York University
  This experiment has ended. Here is a debriefing and description of what was done: "In our study, we presented participants with a series of photographs. Each photograph showed two people involved in an interaction. For instance, participants would see a person giving a gift to another, two people carrying boxes, a couple dancing and so on. In each picture, one of the two individuals was marked with a star (*). Participants were asked to focus on this target when making their judgments. For each picture, we asked participants to indicate whether the person seemed intelligent, likeable, animate, able to have emotions, and machine-like. We also asked participants to rate whether they would find “seeing a person acting like this” believable, eerie, and safe. At the end of the survey, we asked participants to complete a short personality questionnaire and to answer some demographic questions (age, gender, education, religion, nationality). We are interested in how ratings on the above dimensions may differ depending on whether a person is engaged in a mainly instrumental interaction (e.g., one person helping another with carrying boxes) or in a mainly social interaction (e.g., one person engaging in a chat with another), and whether differences (if any) are influenced by a perceiver’s personality and demographic background." The instructions were: "You will be asked to look at a series of person interactions and to evaluate each interaction according to several dimensions (e.g., how safe, intelligent, likeable etc. a target person seems to you). At the end of the study, we will ask you to provide some personality information (e.g., whether you consider yourself calm, extraverted etc.) and demographic information (e.g., your age, gender, nationality). Participation will take you about 30 min. "

  This study aims to investigate the relationship between peoples’ attitudes towards other people and their political values, as there has been very little research in this area to date. Interpersonal values are the values that people have concerning their interactions with other people. For example, some people enjoy spending time with others and working together, while other people prefer to spend time alone and working by themselves. All of these values can be considered to be important in some way, and the purpose of this study is to see whether they are related to the kind of political values people have. The purpose of this study is not to ‘pigeon-hole’ people, but to gain an understanding into how people’s values are expressed in our political systems.
Participants need to have voted in at least 3 elections in the last 10 years. Prize draw for $AU100 gift voucher.
