Differentiation in Young Adult Relationships ::

Jennifer Howes
California School of Professional Psychology at Alliant International University, Los Angeles<

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. Identifying elements of differentiation that differ in adults and young adults will aid in the development of targeted therapeutic interventions and will help delineate the arc of differentiation development across the lifespan.

Beena Kuruvilla & Jayne Gackenbach
Grant MacEwan College

The current study seeks to further explore the relationship between dreaming and electronic media use, especially, but not exclusively, video game playing experience. As such, we need individuals with various backgrounds in video game play, including those with limited to no experience. After reporting the dream you had the night prior to filling out the survey you will be asked a series of questions about that dream including questions about your awareness of yourself during the dream. Additionally, you will be asked which electronic media you used the day prior to the dream and what the impact of that media was on you. By participating, you make a valuable contribution to basic knowledge about the experience of video game play and more broadly the impact of media use on dreams.

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.
