Decision-Making Processes among Sibling Caregivers of Persons with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
:: |
| |
A Zendell; P McCallion
University at Albany |
| |
Through this study, we are gathering information about the needs of men and women caring for siblings with intellectual or developmental disabilities, particularly those needs that are essential at the time when decisions about assuming (or expanding) the caregiving role are being made. Anyone who is a brother or sister (age 22 or older) of an adult, also age 22 or older, with an intellectual or developmental disability that was diagnosed prior to age 22 and provides care, emotional support, concrete support, oversight, or companionship for a sibling with a developmental disability and/or for the primary caregiver of the brother or sister with the disability (e.g. parent, other sibling or family member, or paid caregiver) for an average of 16 hours per month and resides in the United States is eligible to be part of this study. Ultimately, a resource guide will be created to help siblings who are in the process of making decisions around care for a brother or sister with a disability and also to inform service providers of meaningful ways to include siblings in care planning at an earlier stage.

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 is concerned with the how an individual’s childhood affects their ability to problem solve as adults. Previous studies have found a link between an unstable childhood and a reduced performance in problem solving, however, a more recent study (Mittal et al., 2015) has found a link that suggests that an unstable childhood, although reducing performance on most aspects of problem solving skills can actually make the person improve on a specific type of problem solving– i.e cognitive shifting, which is the ability to switch between different mental tasks. This result was only found when these individuals were in unstable environments. Therefore, this study is exploring whether a link exists between an unstable childhood and various aspects of problem solving skills.

Neutral traits and beliefs about racial groups

Elizabeth N. Bartmess
University of Michigan |
| |
We are interested in common beliefs about racial groups. This study is a pilot-test for a later series of studies. We are asking you to help us by acting as an informant on your society. In this study, you will rate how much members of the United States, in general, think a number of traits are seen in members of different races. We will also ask you to rate each trait on how negative or positive it is. Our goal is to develop, with your help, a set of traits that will accurately represent the general public’s beliefs for use in future studies. In exchange for your participation, we will tell you about some of our more interesting hypotheses, and you will have the option to learn more about our research as it progresses.
Although at this time we are primarily interested in representatives from the U.S., we would like to examine perceptions of U.S. beliefs by people from other nations as well - so we hope that if you are not from the U.S., you will still participate! Your data will be helpful to us in generating hypotheses for future studies.
