EFFECTS OF MINDFULNESS AND MEDITATION EXPERIENCE ON COGNITIVE AND EMOTIONAL FUNCTIONING AND EGO DEPLETIONLykins, Emily Lauren Brown 01 January 2009 (has links)
Mindfulness is increasingly recognized as an important phenomenon both clinically and empirically, with mindfulness-based interventions demonstrated to be efficacious across a wide variety of patient populations and disorders (i.e., Baer, 2003). Though debate regarding the exact definition of mindfulness continues, generally accepted definitions involve the common elements of intentionally directing attention toward the present moment and adopting an accepting, nonjudgmental, and/or nonreactive orientation, intent, or attitude (i.e., Baer et al., 2006; Bishop et al., 2004). Several testable predictions in the cognitive and emotional domains were derived from the operational definition of mindfulness provided by Bishop et al. (2004). Recent empirical work (i.e., Chambers, Lo, & Allen, 2008; Valentine & Sweet, 1999) has supported Bishop et al.’s predictions, providing initial validation of their operationalization of mindfulness. However, most work on the effects of meditation practice and the mindfulness construct has relied on self-report methodology. The current work transcended past research by using behavioral methods to investigate the effects of meditation practice, correlates of trait mindfulness, and validity of current conceptualizations of mindfulness. Additionally, the current work investigated relationships between meditation, mindfulness, and self-regulation using behavioral methods. This investigation was warranted as recent theoretical work suggested that increased self-control abilities may be the primary mechanism by which mindfulness-based interventions work and that higher levels of trait mindfulness may appear to be related to enhanced well-being due to the unmeasured third variable of enhanced self-regulatory abilities (Masicampo & Baumeister, 2007). Ninety-eight individuals (33 meditators, 33 age-matched nonmeditating controls, and 32 students) completed self-report and behavioral measures of attention, learning, memory, cognitive and emotional biases, and self-regulation in individual sessions. Results demonstrated that meditation practice related to few of the measured constructs, with significant group differences detected between the meditators and nonmeditators in short-term memory, long-term memory, and self-regulation only. Self-reported trait mindfulness in the nonmeditators related only to self-reported psychological well-being. These results stand in stark contrast to most of the current literature on meditation and mindfulness. The research raises more questions about the effects of meditation practice and conceptualization of mindfulness than it answers, though multiple interpretations of the data are possible.

Die persepsie en belewenis van emosionele selfregulering by 'n groep laatadolessente / Ora GerberGerber, Ora January 2007 (has links)
This study aims to investigate the perception and experience of emotion self-regulation in
a group of late adolescents. An exploratory, qualitative survey design was used to collect
data from a group of 54 Afrikaans-speaking late adolescents by means of a semi structured
emotion self-regulation questionnaire. Data were assessed by means of
directed thematic content analysis (Hsieh & Shannon, 2005). It was established that
participants primarily have a positive perception of emotions, and that more participants
display higher levels of emotion awareness. However, despite this, most participants
experience emotions negatively. At most, therefore, a balance is struck between the
constructive and unconstructive handling of emotions. Throughout it was endeavoured to
relate the results to late adolescence as a developmental stage. Study conclusions include
that emotion self-regulation in late adolescents is strongly influenced by uncertainty
about the handling of emotions, self-consciousness with regard to emotions in a social
context, and a lack of self-control. A few recommendations are made on the basis of
these conclusions. / Thesis (M.A. (Psychology))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2008.

Motivy autoregulace českých novinářů při rutinním profesním rozhodování / Self-regulation Motives of Czech Journalists along with Routine Professional DecisionMalá, Kateřina January 2008 (has links)
Diploma thesis "Self-regulation Motives of Czech Journalists along with Routine Professional Decision" deals with regulators which show up in daily pofessional work of journalists at present, i.e. in period when this diploma thesis was written. Motives and influences of each regulator are examined in sample of three nationwide publishers - Mlada fronta Dnes, Pravo and Lidove noviny. Sixteen journalists participated in this survey, which was made in period from March, 16th 2008 to May, 5th 2008. This work is focused on Codes of Conduct (Codes of Ethics) of the surveyed publishers and explores their effects on professional manners of each editor. Furthermore, this diploma thesis is also about journalists personal professional limits which work as personal self-regulators. It investigates what is excusable for editors and what is not, within the survey. This diploma thesis answers on question which regulators influence editors and how editors react. In conclusion this work also deals with self-regulation aspects, if they are considered important by editors or not. This diploma thesis compares results among the above mentioned surveyed publishers as well as within the hierarchy of each publisher.

Previous issue date: 2008-12-11 / This research investigates about the teacher s autonomy as a fundamental element for the pedagogical practice exercise. Its locus is the school, understood as a complex place, permeated through relationships marked by diversity by its actors and its social practices. The objective is to analyse, by the speeches of teachers, what they understand for autonomy. The method undertaken inserts in the qualitative analysis, and consists in the presentation pieces from speeches taken in the interviews realized with the teachers and the vice-principal, and reports of scenes experienced in the teacher s meetings. Through the content analysis, we established categories as: organization and participation in decisions; authority and responsibility; emancipation and self-regulation; that approaching us from the autonomy reflection, doing us look for the pedagogical practices, for the teacher s feeling, for the elements constituting the context investigated. As a theorical base, we used the Socio-Historical Psychology and its main representative, Vigotski, and the ideas of the Liberative Education, presented by Paulo Freire. In the conclusion, we discussed that some teachers are considered as self-regulated, but not autonomous, even if they are striving for their practice be autonomic. This reflection arises from the fact that there are many aspects that are as impediments to their practice be autonomy like, for example, the bureaucracy that exist in the municipal school, the conducts that exist inside the proper school, such as the lack of a working group, to involve themselves in taking responsibility, to feel themselves as belonging to the context in which it is inserted. Be autonomic doesn t means be alone, act with individuality, but recognize themselves as being singular, conscious, critic, author of his story, which act with responsibility and follow their laws. Although, we can also found practices that show how possible paths to be followed to emerge as the autonomy aspect of teaching practices, like some attitudes taken by the vice principal and teachers, to open itself to the changes, feel the need to discuss, reflect on their actions, to be worried about the education offered to students. At last, we presented how the Psychology could be important in the school, in the way that it can contribute for the comprehension about these interactions, for the subject s development, in this case, for the autonomy development, doing the mediation of meanings and senses attributed by the actors school. / A presente pesquisa investiga a autonomia do professor como elemento fundamental para o exerc?cio de sua pr?tica pedag?gica. Seu locus ? a escola, entendida como um complexo espa?o, permeado por rela??es marcadas pela diversidade apresentada por seus atores e por suas pr?ticas sociais. Seu objetivo ? analisar, por meio das falas do professor, o que ele entende por autonomia. O m?todo utilizado insere-se na abordagem qualitativa, e constitui-se da apresenta??o de trechos de falas retirados das entrevistas realizadas com os professores e com a vice-diretora, e relatos de cenas vivenciadas nas reuni?es dos professores. Por meio de an?lise de conte?do, estabelecemos categorias como: organiza??o e participa??o nas decis?es; autoridade e responsabilidade; emancipa??o e auto-regula??o; que nos aproximavam da reflex?o sobre a autonomia, voltando nosso olhar para a pr?tica pedag?gica, para o sentimento dos professores, para os elementos que compunham o contexto investigado. Como base te?rica, utilizamos as concep??es da Psicologia S?cio-Hist?rica e de seu principal representante, Vigotski, e as id?ias da Educa??o Libertadora, apresentadas por Paulo Freire. Na conclus?o, discutimos que, alguns professores se constituem como auto-regulados, mas n?o aut?nomos, mesmo que se esforcem para que sua pr?tica seja aut?noma. Tal reflex?o surge da constata??o de que s?o muitos os empecilhos existentes para o desenvolvimento dessa autonomia, como, por exemplo, a burocracia existente na rede municipal, as condutas existentes dentro da pr?pria escola, a falta de um trabalho em grupo, do professor se implicar, responsabilizar-se, sentir-se como pertencente ao contexto no qual est? inserido. Ser aut?nomo n?o significa ser sozinho, agir com individualidade, mas reconhecer-se como ser singular, consciente, cr?tico, autor de sua hist?ria, que age com responsabilidade e segue suas leis. No entanto, tamb?m encontramos pr?ticas que se mostram como caminhos poss?veis de serem seguidos para que a autonomia emergisse como aspecto das pr?ticas pedag?gicas, como algumas atitudes tomadas por parte da vice-diretora e dos professores, ao abrirem-se para as mudan?as, sentirem a necessidade de discutir, refletir sobre suas a??es, de preocuparem-se com a educa??o oferecida aos alunos. Por fim, apresentamos como a Psicologia seria importante na escola, na medida em que ela pode contribuir para a compreens?o dessas intera??es, para o desenvolvimento do sujeito, nesse caso, para o desenvolvimento da autonomia, fazendo a media??o dos significados e sentidos atribu?dos pelos atores escolares.

Entrepreneurial Well-Being : The Payoff Structure of Business CreationShir, Nadav January 2015 (has links)
Given the importance of entrepreneurship to individuals and to society, and given that the individual has come to be seen as not only an important function of social and economic processes but also as an important end of these processes, the link between entrepreneurship and well-being requires further investigation. To that end, this thesis provides a solid framework for understanding and measuring well-being in entrepreneurship, and a comprehensive theoretical and empirical examination of the intimate relationship between these two phenomena. Some new and very interesting results were produced: • Active engagement in the creation of new business activities leads to greater well-being by granting the freedom to self-organize work and working relationships, which satisfies individual’s needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. • Entrepreneurial engagement is detrimental to mental health during its early inception in planning and deliberation, which may explain why many fail to transition from thought to action in entrepreneurship. • The presence of a discrepancy between extrinsic life goals and motives is just as strong a predictor of well-being in entrepreneurship as the presence of strong intrinsic life goals and motives. • Entrepreneurial Well-Being, a context-specific state of mental wellness derived from engagement in entrepreneurship, uniquely contributes to entrepreneurs’ overall well-being and is associated with a range of cognitive and motivational processes crucial to entrepreneurship. The reasons for these findings, and the mechanisms involved, are explained at length. My hope is that this work will usher on the adoption of a more integrated approach to assessing and optimizing entrepreneurial performance in terms of both business outcomes and mental health outcomes, as well as offer insights relevant to well-being and its promotion on a more general level. / <p>Diss.

Previous issue date: 2012-10-23 / This study aimed to analyze whether the workshops carried out in Institutional Scholarship Project Initiation to Teaching PIBID,the degree course in math, Federal
University of Pelotas promoted selfregulation of learning and teaching of math scholarships, stimulating and describing their processes of learning and teaching. We
conducted a qualitative research case study to analyze the contributions that this Project made in relation to the training of future teachers. The PIBID has the objective to support the training of undergraduate students. The PIBID I was developed by scholarship holders physics, biology, chemistry and mathematics, supervisor teachers (teachers in schools) and coordinators teachers (teachers in UFPel) in four public schools high school in the city of Pelotas/RS, in which were performed activities, tutoring, workshops and an interdisciplinary project. This research investigated the workshops developed by scholarships of math course that worked in Project, specifically in one of the schools involved. We analyze the work done in math workshops supported in the construct of selfregulation of learning, understood as a process that encourages individuals to create goals and develop learning strategies to achieve the desired goals. Starting from the workshops held in PIBID I, the research objectives were to analyze the planning, the implementation of these workshops and evaluate them; investigate whether the math scholarship holders by developing the workshops, invest in selfregulatory strategies in order to qualify their processes learning and teaching; identify whether the workshops contributed to enhance the processes of training and selftraining of math scholarship holders and investigate whether math workshops contributed to the promotion of the learning of the students. Data collection was conducted through document analysis performed from the project and the report of math workshops carried out and semistructured interviews conducted with three of the scholarship holders who developed the math workshops and with three students who attended them. The data were subjected to content analysis and it emerged the following categories: a) Selfregulate
learning to qualify to teach: collaborative strategies undertaken in math workshops, b) Selfregulate learning to qualify to teach: a reflexive process of formation/selftraining experienced in math workshops. Analyzed the data, we infer that the scholarship holders developed collaborative actions, organized learning
strategies, selfregulatory skills acquired to carry out the planning, implementation and evaluation of math workshops. The analysis showed that the scholarship holders went through a process of reflection on the practice developed, which helped stimulate the students' desire to study mathematics. We conclude that the PIBID I described the initial training of scholarship holders math enabling them to take responsibility for learning to teach. / A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar se as oficinas desenvolvidas no Projeto Institucional de Bolsa de Iniciação à Docência PIBID, do curso de licenciatura em matemática, da Universidade Federal de Pelotas promoveram a autorregulação da aprendizagem e a formação docente das bolsistas de
matemática, estimulando e qualificando os seus processos de aprender e ensinar. Foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa do tipo estudo de caso, para analisar as contribuições que este Projeto fez em relação à formação inicial dos futuros
docentes. O PIBID tem por objetivo apoiar a formação de alunos dos cursos de licenciatura. O PIBID I foi desenvolvido por bolsistas de física, biologia, química e matemática, professores supervisores (docentes nas escolas) e professores
coordenadores (docentes na UFPel) em quatro escolas públicas estaduais de ensino médio da cidade de Pelotas/RS, nas quais foram realizadas atividades de monitorias, oficinas e um projeto interdisciplinar. Esta pesquisa investigou as oficinas
desenvolvidas pelas bolsistas do curso de matemática que atuaram no Projeto, especificamente, em uma das escolas envolvidas. Analisamos o trabalho realizado nas oficinas de matemática apoiadas no construto da autorregulação da
aprendizagem, entendida como um processo que estimula os sujeitos a criarem objetivos e a desenvolverem estratégias de aprendizagem para alcançarem as metas pretendidas. Partindo das oficinas realizadas no PIBID I, os objetivos da
pesquisa foram: analisar o planejamento, a execução dessas oficinas e avaliálas; investigar se as bolsistas de matemática, ao desenvolverem as oficinas, investiram em estratégias autorregulatórias de modo a qualificar os seus processos de
aprender e ensinar; identificar se as oficinas contribuíram para potencializar os processos de formação e autoformação das bolsistas de matemática e investigar se as oficinas de matemática contribuíram para a promoção das aprendizagens dos alunos da escola. A coleta de dados foi desenvolvida através da análise documental realizada a partir do projeto e do relatório das oficinas de matemática desenvolvidas
e de entrevistas semiestruturadas realizadas com três das bolsistas de matemática que desenvolveram as oficinas e com três alunos que delas participaram. Os dados
foram submetidos à análise de conteúdo e dela emergiram as seguintes categorias: a) Autorregular o aprender para qualificar o ensinar: estratégias colaborativas realizadas em oficinas de matemática; b) Autorregular o aprender para qualificar o ensinar: um processo reflexivo de formação/autoformação vivenciado em oficinas de
matemática. Dos dados analisados, inferimos que as bolsistas desenvolveram ações colaborativas, organizaram estratégias de aprendizagem, adquiriram competências autorregulatórias para a realização do planejamento, da execução e da avaliação das oficinas de matemática. A análise mostrou que as bolsistas passaram por um processo de reflexão sobre a prática desenvolvida, o que contribuiu para estimular nos alunos a vontade de estudar matemática. Concluímos que o PIBID I qualificou a formação inicial das bolsistas de matemática possibilitandolhes assumir a responsabilidade de aprender para ensinar.

"Turning Duty into Joy!" Optimierung der Selbstregulation durch Motto-Ziele / "Turning Duty into Joy!" Optimating Selfregulation with Motto-GoalsWeber, Julia 27 March 2014 (has links)
Die Studie untersucht die Wirksamkeit eines neuen Zieltypen (Motto-Ziel), welcher im Rahmen der theoretischen Überlegungen und praktischen Erfahrungen mit dem Selbstmanagement-Training nach dem Zürcher Ressourcen Modell ZRM (Storch & Krause, 2007) entwickelt wurde (Storch, 2009). Durch die Verankerung im Unbewussten ermöglichen es Motto-Ziele Menschen Handlungen in der Selbstregulation auszuführen, für welche normalerweise Selbstkontrolle benötigt wird (unangenehme Pflichten). In der Studie werden die Motto-Ziele zwei anderen Zieltypen gegenübergestellt, welche im Selbstmanagementbereich zur Erzeugung von Motivation eingesetzt werden: hohe spezifische Ziele nach Locke & Latham (1990, 2007) und Schwelgen in positiver Zielerreichungsphantasien (ein Teil des mentalen Kontrastieren nach Öttingen, 1999). Um die Zieltypen hinsichtlich ihres Stellenwertes für das innerpsychische Zielsystem einordnen zu können, dient als theoretische Grundlage die Theorie der Persönlichkeits-System-Interaktion (PSI-Theorie) von Kuhl (2001). In einem kontrollierten randomisierten Untersuchungsdesign mit 67 Probanden werden die Zieltypen hinsichtlich verschiedener Konstrukte untersucht und verglichen: Willensbahnung, intrinsische Motivation, Selbstregulations- und Affektregulationskompetenz, Handlungskontrolle, implizite und explizite Affektlage, Entschlossenheit/Bindung/Realisierbarkeit des Ziels, Selbst- und Fremdinfiltration, Einfluss auf Blutglukosewert, Verankerung im Unbewussten. Dazu wurden nebst mehreren Fragebögen der Emoscan (Kazén & Kuhl, 2005) und der Panter (Baumann, Kuhl & Kazén, 2005) eingesetzt und der intraindividuelle Glukosewert (Galliot & Baumeister, 2007) erhoben. Die ersten Ergebnisse zeigen auf, dass Motto-Ziele im Vergleich mit den beiden anderen Gruppen signifikant den Optimismus erhöhen und die Affektregulationskompetenz nach Misserfolg verbessern. Des weiteren kann die Hypothese bestätigt werden, dass Motto-Ziele durch ihre Verankerung im Unbewussten nicht überexplizite Kontrolle (wie die hohen spezifischen Ziele) sondern intuitiv umgesetzt werden.

Förderung der Selbststeuerungskompetenz von übergewichtigen Jugendlichen zur Umstellung des GesundheitsverhaltensLezinsky, Dorota 23 September 2010 (has links)
Trotz motivierter Therapieversuche gelingt es vielen übergewichtigen Menschen nicht, ihre Bewegungs- und Ernährungsgewohnheiten nachhaltig zu verbessern und das Gewicht zu reduzieren bzw. zu stabilisieren. Es wird angenommen, dass ihnen ein gewisses Maß an Selbststeuerungsfähigkeit (Willensstärke) fehlt. Diese ist notwendig, um ein gefasstes Ziel über eine längere Zeit aufrechtzuerhalten und umzusetzen. Sie steht im Mittelpunkt eines neu konzipierten Selbststeuerungs-, Trainings- und Ernährungs- Programms mit Spaß und wird mittels einer Coaching-Methode individuell gefördert. Durch die Optimierung der mentalen Bedingungen, die das Verhalten determinieren, soll die Voraussetzung für eine dauerhafte Veränderung des Gesundheitsverhaltens geschaffen werden. In einer quasiexperimentellen Studie mit 39 Jugendlichen wurde die Wirksamkeit von S.T.E.P.S. empirisch überprüft. Zudem wurden die Teilnehmer anhand von Erfolgskriterien als Responder bzw. Non-Responder bestimmt und retrospektiv auf Unterschiede untersucht. Daraus wurden Prädiktoren für den Interventionserfolg abgeleitet. Die Ergebnisse deuten auf eine alters- und anwesenheitsabhängige Wirkung des Programms hin. 15-17 Jährige verbesserten signifikant ihre Selbststeuerungskompetenz und reduzierten den Körperfettanteil. Auch die regelmäßig teilnehmenden Jugendlichen optimierten ihre Selbststeuerung bedeutsam. Größtenteils blieben die Effekte nach 8 Monaten bestehen. Responder verfügten über eine signifikant bessere Ausgangslage in den mentalen Prozessen. Bei der Bekämpfung von Übergewicht spielen eine ausgeprägte Handlungsüberzeugung und der Umgang mit negativen Affekten eine entscheidende Rolle. Die Analysen zeigten, dass der BMI zur Abbildung von interventionsbedingten Veränderungen im Körperfettanteil ungeeignet zu sein scheint. Der Einbezug der Eltern und die verwendeten Messinstrumente bezüglich des Verhaltens wurden diskutiert. Letztere wiesen einen dringenden Forschungsbedarf hinsichtlich ihrer Validität auf. / Despite highly motivated attempts at changing their eating and activity habits the majority of overweight people fail to lose weight successfully and over the long term. It is assumed that they lack the willpower necessary to maintain and realize this specific goal and a newly developed intervention program for overweight people (S.T.E.P.S.) is designed to help them with this. Willpower is facilitated through individual coaching. By optimizing the mental conditions which determine an individual’s behaviour, the preconditions for changes to their health behaviour are provided. The efficacy of S.T.E.P.S. has been tested empirically within a quasi-experimental study of 39 adolescents. Based on certain success criteria, participants were defined as responders or non-responders and examined retrospectively for personal differences to deduce which interventions were successful. The efficacy of the program is dependent on the adolescent’s age and frequency of participation. 15-17 year old participants significantly improved their willpower ability and reduced their body fat where they participated in the program frequently. These effects also showed up eight months after finishing the intervention. Responders were disposed to better preconditions in their mental processes. Weight loss requires a high level of volitional self-confidence and being able to deal with negative affects. Analysis seems to show that the BMI is an inadaquate indicator of loss of body fat, based on this intervention. Inclusion of the adolescent’s parents in the program was discussed, as well as the methodological measuring instruments applied in this study. These, however, require further empirical research regarding their validity.
