Coach autonomy support and quality of sport engagement in young soccer players

2009

Based on the self-determination theory (Ryan & Deci, 2000), this study tested a model of the assumed sequential relationships between perceived autonomy support, psychological need satisfaction, self-determined motivation, and enjoyment/boredom. The hypothesized mediational roles of psychological need satisfaction and self-determined motivation were also studied. In a sample of 370 young male soccer players, path analysis results offered support for the proposed model. Total mediation was supported in the case of the psychological need satisfaction in the relationship between autonomy support and self-determined motivation, and partial mediation for self-determined motivation in the links b…

Perspectivas psicológicas seleccionadas sobre trabajo digno y satisfacción laboral

2020

This article analyses some selected considerations on the individual psychological variables that determine the perception of work as worthy or satisfactory. It is argued that the eudemonist philosophy of life (Huta and Ryan), basic self-assessments (Judge and Bono), and satisfaction of basic psychological needs (Ryan and Deci) are interrelated as causes of job satisfaction. A two-level model of determinants of job satisfaction is presented and analysed, which relates the theories mentioned above. Walczak's empirical articles confirming these relationships are presented and reviewed.

Toward evidence-based severity assessment in rat models with repeated seizures: II. Chemical post-status epilepticus model.

2019

Objective: Considering the complexity of neuronal circuits and their epilepsy-associated alterations, epilepsy models cannot be completely replaced by in vitro experimental approaches. Decisions about ethical approval of in vivo studies require a thorough weighing of the animal's burden and the benefit regarding the expected gain in knowledge. Methods: Based on combined behavioral, biochemical, and physiological analyses, we assessed the impact on animal well-being and condition in different phases of the pilocarpine post–status epilepticus (SE) model in rats. Results: As a consequence of SE, increased levels of impairment were evident in the early postinsult phase and late chronic phase, w…

Sexual behaviors and function during menopausal transition—does menopausal hormonal therapy play a role?

2020

Objectives: The menopausal transition is a biological adaptation to the variety of life changes (body, comorbidities, relationship), but that biology is not an “end all” in the context of sexual function and overall sexual health. The aim of this study is to evaluate determinants altering the risk of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) and other sexual problems and to establish whether menopausal hormonal therapy (MHT) decreases that risk and modifies sexual behaviors. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted in 210 women between the ages of 45 and 55. Two groups were identified: MHT users (n = 107) and controls—MHT non-users (n = 103). Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of M…

Psychophysical response to electrocutaneous stimulation.

1984

A method is presented to determine a reliable stimulus-sensation relationship particularly suitable for electrocutaneous stimulation. An experimental intensity-discrimination curve was obtained through simple psychophysical comparison tasks, and sensory response was inferred from integration of a JND's density function. The psychophysical response resembles a power law, although departures cannot be described in terms of a unique exponent. An estimate of binary information capacity per electrode is also given as a feature of a stimulation procedure that preserves a low value of the size-intensity product.

Zaspokojenie podstawowych potrzeb psychologicznych jako mediator między podstawowym samowartościowaniem a zadowoleniem zawodowym

2018

The article presents the verifi cation of a mediation between core self-evaluations (Judge, Locke, Durham, 1997) and work satisfaction, by the means of satisfaction of basic psychological needs at work (Deci et al., 2001). On a two multi-source cross-sectional samples (n1=977, n2=573), using path analysis, it was shown that both the structure of psychological needs at work is of three-factor character and that the postulated mediation relation can be confirmed. The results can be interpreted as a suggestion to look at the role of mediators between the dispositional variables such as core self-evaluations and job satisfaction.

Płeć psychologiczna a zadowolenie ze związku małżeńskiego i własnego życia

2016

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest empiryczna weryfikacja relacji między cechami osobowości partnera rozumianymi zgodnie z Teorią Schematu Płci autorstwa Sandry Bem a zadowoleniem ze związku małżeńskiego i własnego życia w zakresie poznawczych i emocjonalnych wymiarów dobrostanu psychicznego. 105 par będących w związku małżeńskim przez okres co najmniej 1 roku, zostało zbadanych. Wiek badanych wahał się od 21 do 78 lat, podczas gdy staż małżeński oscylował w granicach od 1 do 54 lat. Cztery niezbędne narzędzia zostały zastosowane: IPP – inwentarz badający płeć psychologiczną; KDM-2 – skala do pomiaru zadowolenia w związkach małżeńskich; SWLS – miara poznawczego wymiaru dobrostanu psychicznego;…
