:: Interpersonal Values and Political Orientation ::
  Andrew Reilly, Arran Gare, Christine Critchley
Swinburne University of Technology
  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.

  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.

:: 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.

:: 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.

:: Sequential decision-making under uncertainty in a video game ::
  Paul Schrater, Daniel Acuna
Department of Psychology, University of Minnesotaonl
  If you agree to be in this study, we would ask you to do the following things: play games that involve decisions over uncertain rewarding alternatives. You will be asked to simultaneously play several virtual slot machines that give you points in a random fashion (much like simultaneously playing several real slot machines in a casino where you do not know which machine is the best). For each game, you will have the opportunity to pull the levers a randomly limited number of times. This is, 2 out of 100 pulls may randomly stop the current game, making you collect the points, and playing the next game. This does not mean that the probability of ending the game increases over time, but it stays fixed. For example, if you survived the pull number 4, you need to think that you have to have survived the first, second, and third pull, each of which has a 2% probability of stopping the current game. You will be asked to play 48 of these games separated into 4 stages, each of which will have different number of machines and different payoff behaviors. Keep in mind that each set of games is different for each subject. Each game typically involves 1.5 minutes of playing, but you can take as much time as you want. Moreover, you can play each game any time you want, spaced over a period of time. We would not be surprised if you play either all the games consecutively or just one per day. We expect solving all games would take 60 min of game play, but again, you can take as much time as you want.
