2021
The present study investigates the role of attentional style as a moderator variable between temporal perspective and social network addiction, since little is known about users’ cognitive variables involved in this kind of addictive behavior. To achieve this goal, a sample of 186 volunteers and anonymous social networking sites users (M = 34%; F = 66%; Mage = 22.54 years; SD = 3.94; range: 18 ÷ 45 years) participated in a cross-sectional study. All participants filled out self-report instruments measuring temporal perspective, internal vs. external attentional style, and social network addiction. The results align with the previous literature and show that present fatalistic and past negat…
Pašregulācijas stilu, tagadnes laika perspektīvu un darba intensitātes savstarpēja saistība
2017
Pētījuma “Pašregulācijas stilu, tagadnes laika perspektīvu un darba intensitātes savstarpēja saistība” mērķis bija noskaidrot kādas tagadnes laika perspektīvas un pašregulācijas stili prognozē darba intensitāti, un, vai pastāv saistība starp tagadnes laika perspektīvu, pašregulācijas stiliem un darba intensitāti. Dati tika ievākti no 148 strādājošiem cilvēkiem, kuri dzīvo dažādās Latvijas pilsētās, vecumā no 25 līdz 65 gadiem (vidējais vecums M = 38,03 gadi SD = 12,46), no kuriem 76 (51,35%) bija sievietes un 72 vīrieši (48,65%). Datu ievākšanai tika izmantotas šādas metodes: Pašregulācijas stilu aptauja, Tagadnes laika perspektīvas aptauja (TLPA) un Darba intensitātes aptauja. Visas metode…
