The relationship between emotion intensity and episodic migraine in adult womenHurley, Catherine 27 February 2024 (has links)
BACKGROUND: Identifying factors related to migraine onset is essential to effective treatment because it would allow patients to take prophylactic measures to reduce the likelihood of migraine occurrence. The experience of intense emotions is a potential factor affecting migraine onset. This study aimed to explore the relationship between day-to-day experience of emotions (specifically the intensity of sadness, happiness, anxiety/stress, and interpersonal stress) and migraine onset.
METHODS: Thirty adult women with episodic migraine were recruited to engage in a 12-week monitoring period that involved wearing a Fitbit and answering daily questionnaires by mobile app. The daily questionnaires asked about headache occurrence and triggers, emotional intensity, and sleep. A series of linear regressions were carried out to understand the overall relationship between emotional intensity and the onset of migraine over the 12-week period. In addition, mixed effects models were used to explore the temporal relationship between participants’ reported emotional intensity on a given day and migraine occurrence the next day.
RESULTS: The linear regressions for migraine occurrence and headache occurrence as a function of emotional intensity were not significant. However, mixed effects models showed that emotion intensity and migraine onset were significantly associated for happiness (estimate = -0.081; p = .027), anxiety/stress (estimate = 0.060; p = .040), and interpersonal stress (estimate = 0.12; p = .0017) but not sadness (estimate = 0.025; p = .46).
CONCLUSIONS: Findings suggest that high levels of anxiety/stress and interpersonal stress predict onset of migraine the next day. Similarly, low levels of happiness predict onset of migraine the next day. However, these relationships are no longer significant when emotional intensity is averaged over the 12-week monitoring period. Taken together, these findings support the need for longitudinal research evaluating the temporal relationship between emotion and migraine occurrence, particularly because important relationships may be lost with cross-sectional studies. Furthermore, these findings point to the potential role of strong negative emotions and the absence of positive emotions in producing migraine.

Facilitating Multiple Cue Use Eliminates Age Differences in Episodic Metamemory for Emotional WordsFlurry, Ethan 06 August 2021 (has links)
Older adults' ability to make accurate metamemory judgments indicates that aging spares metamemory (Eakin & Hertzog, 2006; 2012a; but see Souchay et al., 2006). However, age differences in metamemory accuracy for emotional information, particularly lists of positive and neutral words, indicate potential age-related impairment of metamemory (Tauber & Dunlosky, 2012; Flurry & Eakin, manuscript in preparation). These age differences may be explained by potential cue overshadowing effects (Price & Yates, 1993) in which older adults primarily used the salient cue, emotional valence, and overlooked additional cues that were diagnostic of memory. We hypothesized that age differences in metamemory for emotional words may be eliminated when older adults have a second salient and diagnostic cue to inform judgments of learning (JOLs). We manipulated multiple cues, emotional valence and endorsement (Craik & Tulving, 1975), using a category inclusion task in which participants responded "yes" or "no" to endorse positive words (e.g. "champion") or neutral words (e.g. "sphere") as category members (e.g. "is an achievement"). Age comparisons in free recall and JOL magnitude between levels of emotional valence (positive, neutral) and levels of endorsement (yes, no) indicate that both younger and older adults' JOL magnitudes responded to emotional valence and endorsement effects in which memory was higher for positive than neutral words, and "yes" versus "no" words. JOL accuracy results demonstrate that both age groups' JOLs were significantly accurate above chance within each level of valence and endorsement. Age comparisons in JOL accuracy suggest that including a second salient cue eliminated previously reported age differences in metamemory for positive and neutral words. These results demonstrate that older adults can use multiple cues to make accurate JOLs in the presence of a salient cue. This finding supports a conclusion that previously reported age differences in metamemory for emotional words can be attributed to cue overshadowing effects that diminished older adults' ability to use multiple cues. This conclusion has implications on the aging and metamemory literature such that additional age differences reported in episodic metamemory may also be attributed to conditions that hindered multiple cue use by older adults.

"Stay sexy and don't get murdered:" race, gnder, and the meaning/making of true crimeMooney, Heather A. 19 September 2023 (has links)
True crime—whether appearing in books, podcasts, films, internet forums, or documentaries—is a burgeoning area of entertainment. The narrativization of crime relies on sensationalism; it is designed to evoke an emotional experience and inform emotional states (Bishop 2014; Robertson 2019; Wiltenburg 2004). Data suggests that over 70% of true crime consumers of true crime are women, and the vast majority are White, heterosexually-partnered, and college educated (Boling and Hull 2018; Ask Wonder 2020). To account for this gendered pattern of consumption, scholars argue that fear of being a victim, learning “survival” strategies, and/or navigating past traumas motivates women’s disproportionate consumption, rendering true crime a form of narrative risk management (Browder 2006; Vicary and Fraley 2010). However, this does not completely explain the draw for true crime, especially when analyzed along the axis of race. If consumption of true crime is a coping strategy to deal with myriad forms of gendered vulnerability, why do White women partake while women of color—particularly Black, Latina/x/e, and Indigenous women, who are statistically more at risk for such egregious violence—do not?
I use true crime as a case to theorize the relationship between gender, race, and emotion, especially perceptions of risk and vulnerability. This cross-disciplinary dissertation uses survey data, over 120 interviews, responsive journaling, and comparative discourse analysis of popular true crime coverage, to theorize the relationship of race, gender, and emotion in the production and consumption of true crime. Moving beyond a simple critique of textual representation, I argue the charged and selective stories in true crime, as well as its formulaic structure and content, are a site of racialization vis-à-vis narrative and emotive constructions of risk and social control. These narratives of “White-on-White” crime represent a White myth, adapted for a moment where (White) America is paradoxically more aware of racial inequality while retaining notions of a “post-race” and “color blind” society. I further examine the interrelationship of race, gender, and emotion in the engagement and effects of true crime communities, including the role of (anticipated) victimhood, fear, as well as perceptions of risk, resistance, and time. In closing, I examine the maintenance and violation of feeling rules (Hochschild 1979; Wingfield 2010), or “appropriate” displays of affect, in true crime consumption. I further explore how lived distance from violence is inversely related to one’s tolerance for representations of violence, and how the emotional experience of gendered vulnerability is translated into extensions of state power. In sum, this project explores how Whiteness and femininity undergird a draw towards dark leisure as a site of “edutainment,” or educational-entertainment, as well as knowledge consumption and production. / 2025-09-18T00:00:00Z

No-thought Shopping: Understanding and Controlling Nonconscious Processing in MarketingFabrize, Robert O., Jr. 12 1900 (has links)
This dissertation explores how nonconscious thought processing might be affected and activated in ways that influence consumer decision making. To activate nonconscious thought processes, this dissertation relies on priming—the unobtrusive activation of mental representations by stimuli in a social context, which occurs without participants' conscious awareness. Three dimensions of consumer decision making are investigated: purchase intention, product evaluation and arousal. The dissertation is based on the auto-motive model of nonconscious goal pursuit and somatic marker hypothesis. The dissertation is driven by three experiments, which respectively explore crucial areas in priming effects and addresses the following research question: can primes be shaped or controlled by marketers? Specifically, the dissertation examines whether shopping behavior can be primed. Second, the dissertation also examines how facial primes displaying basic emotions (happiness, anger, contempt, disgust, fear, sadness, and surprise) can prime emotion and arousal. Finally the dissertation examines the effect of the interaction of the buying prime with the primes of faces displaying basic emotions on the dependent variables of purchase intention, product evaluation, emotion, and arousal. Results from three experimental studies show that shopping behavior can be primed, and primed participants will exhibit higher product evaluation than those exposed to a control prime. Second while exposing participants to primes of faces displaying emotions did not elicit those emotions, the priming with faces did reveal a marginal activation of arousal in the participants. Third priming with faces was not found to interact with primed buying behavior such that the interaction would affect the level of arousal. The results indicate that Bargh's auto-motive model of nonconscious goal pursuit can be applied to marketing. Thus priming shopping behavior can affect product evaluation though the effect of this prime appears to be too weak to be applied in the field. Priming with faces was found not to interact with primed shopping behavior and thus affect product evaluation. The impact of the findings on marketing practitioners suggests that more laboratory investigation is necessary. Further laboratory investigation should be used to raise the effect level of the prime and to find ways to shape and control nonconscious goal pursuit prior to attempting to bring priming into the field.

A Statewide Hallmark Event: The Exploration of Participants' Perceptions and EmotionsNyhuis, Millie Kathleen 12 1900 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The Indiana Bicentennial Torch Relay was a one-of-a-kind event that involved over 2,000 participants from all 92 counties. The event was created to invoke community pride and connectivity. The purpose of this study is to understand the emotions and perceptions of participants in a state-wide Hallmark event. To achieve the purpose of this study, this research studied the perception and emotions of the participants of the state-wide event. Participants filled out an online survey with questions related to their sense of community, perception and emotions of the event. Four different scales from previous research were used in the survey. A total of 490 participants responded to the survey. Normality and nonparametric tests were performed. The results of the tests showed an increase in positive affect after the event than before. Most of the perceptions of the event were shown to be relatively similar based on proximity and population of the counties. Showing that no matter the population of the community, perceptions of the event could be very similar.

An exploratory factor analysis of self-reported state and trait guiltLacerenza, Christina 01 May 2012 (has links)
The construct of guilt has been a subject of debate among philosophers, theologians, sociologists and psychologists for centuries. Disagreements concerning guilt have emerged on the definitional level, measurement level, and conceptual level due to the various ways guilt can be experienced and interpreted. Researchers continue to empirically investigate various aspects of guilt in an effort to advance and refine our understanding of the construct; however, differences among researchers in assessing the impact of guilt on psychological well-being still exist. The purpose of this study is to investigate the internal factor structure of three prominent measures of guilt. This will enable us to develop a more concise guilt measure en route to reconciling these differences and better conceptualizing the construct.

Assessment Of Emotion Regulation: Strategy Use, Flexibility, And EmotionalityColeman, Ashley 04 May 2018 (has links)
Previous research has indicated that emotion regulation (ER) strategy use is crucial for predicting emotional and behavioral functioning. The current study examined the construct of ER by integrating ER strategy use with flexibility to use strategies and overall level of experienced emotion to determine the adaptiveness of ER as a process. Self-report data regarding strategy use, flexibility, and affect intensity was collected from undergraduate psychology students (N = 380). A latent class analysis (LCA) was used to test the predicted 4-class model of ER. A 4-class model and 2-class model were supported. MANOVA results indicated that both models predicted outcomes of ER difficulties, secure attachment, and internalizing and externalizing behaviors; the comparison model of high/low strategy use did not predict ER difficulties or internalizing and externalizing behaviors. Our results suggest that integrating strategy use, flexibility, and emotionality yields classes of ER predict functioning better than strategy use alone.
