Abstract

This volume, first published as part of APA's centennial celebration in 1992 and updated today for the 125th anniversary, demonstrates how the Association has evolved over the years in response to intellectual, cultural, political, economic, and other historical developments. Chapters describe the personalities and events that transformed APA from a tiny organization of 26 members to one of the largest professional associations in the world. Key topics include the changing role of women in the APA, and the organization's considerable contributions to social change. From its origins in the late nineteenth century, through the two World Wars and a major reorganization, to the social and cultural turbulence of the 1960s and the economic uncertainties of the 1970s and 1980s, APA's development has mirrored the growth of psychology as a discipline in the United States. This special 125th anniversary edition describes the unique challenges and triumphs that have marked APA's early years of the twenty-first century.

Japanese animation, anime, has long been regarded as a niche culture reserved for anime otaku in Japan. The word anime otaku refers to individuals who spend most of their time alone at home, watching anime. However, in recent years, prototypical anime otaku have changed their behavioral patterns, resulting in a new movement called anime pilgrimage. Anime pilgrimage involves traveling to locations that resemble particular scenes in anime pieces, even though the locations themselves may be ordinary places. The authors constructed two models to describe the determinants of visit intention and destination loyalty based on research into ordinary and film tourism. The results suggested that, during the pre-tour period, otaku are motivated by the desire for interaction with other otaku and the wish to visit a new location. Moreover, they are also seeking to interact with the local people, and such experiences result in higher destination loyalty during the post-tour period.

Retrospective or post hoc power analysis is recommended by reviewers and editors of many journals. Little literature has been found that gave a serious study of the post hoc power. When the sample size is large, the observed effect size is a good estimator of the true effect size. One would hope that the post hoc power is also a good estimator of the true power. This article studies whether such a power estimator provides valuable information about the true power. Using analytical, numerical, and Monte Carlo approaches, our results show that the estimated power does not provide useful information when the true power is small. It is almost always a biased estimator of the true power. The bias can be negative or positive. Large sample size alone does not guarantee the post hoc power to be a good estimator of the true power. Actually, when the population variance is known, the cumulative distribution function of the post hoc power is solely a function of the population power. This distribution is uniform when the true power equals 0.5 and highly skewed when the true power is near 0 or 1. When the population variance is unknown, the post hoc power behaves essentially the same as when the variance is known. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)

One possible reason for the continued neglect of statistical power analysis in research in the behavioral sciences is the inaccessibility of or difficulty with the standard material. A convenient, although not comprehensive, presentation of required sample sizes is provided. Effect-size indexes and conventional values for these are given for operationally defined small, medium, and large effects. The sample sizes necessary for .80 power to detect effects at these levels are tabled for 8 standard statistical tests: (1) the difference between independent means, (2) the significance of a product–moment correlation, (3) the difference between independent rs, (4) the sign test, (5) the difference between independent proportions, (6) chi-square tests for goodness of fit and contingency tables, (7) 1-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and (8) the significance of a multiple or multiple partial correlation.

This article reports the development and validation of a 10-item international Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) Short Form (I-PANAS-SF) in English. A qualitative study (N = 18) and then an exploratory quantitative study (N = 407), each using informants from a range of cultural backgrounds, were used to identify systematically which 10 of the original 20 PANAS items to retain or remove. A same-sample retest study (N = 163) was used in an initial examination of the new 10-item international PANAS's psychometric properties and to assess its correlation with the full, 20-item, original PANAS. In a series of further validation studies (N = 1,789), the cross-sample stability, internal reliability, temporal stability, cross-cultural factorial invariance, and convergent and criterion-related validities of the I-PANAS-SF were examined and found to be psychometrically acceptable.

In recent studies of the structure of affect, positive and negative affect have consistently emerged as two dominant and relatively independent dimensions. A number of mood scales have been created to measure these factors; however, many existing measures are inadequate, showing low reliability or poor convergent or discriminant validity. To fill the need for reliable and valid Positive Affect and Negative Affect scales that are also brief and easy to administer, we developed two 10-item mood scales that comprise the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS). The scales are shown to be highly internally consistent, largely uncorrelated, and stable at appropriate levels over a 2-month time period. Normative data and factorial and external evidence of convergent and discriminant validity for the scales are also presented. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved)

The goal of this chapter is to cover a research program that has explored the effects of interpersonal rejection and exclusion on aggression. We shall cover evidence that being socially rejected by others leads to an increase in aggression. Then we shall consider various competing theories about why it is that rejected, excluded people become aggressive. This chapter will be divided into eight sections. The first will describe the fundamental need to belong that is central to human functioning. The second will address the laboratory methods we have employed to manipulate social rejection. The third will describe research establishing the link between social rejection and aggression. Emotion, self-regulation, hostile cognition, and meaningfulness have been identified as factors relevant to the link between rejection and aggression, and a section will be dedicated to treating each of these topics. Finally, implications and future directions will be discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)

Journal Article

Psychology of women, feminist psychology, and therapy with women have been primarily connected to dominant Western methodologies and practices of the Global North. The history of misogynistic and patriarchal methods in Western psychology is often limited to critiques of psychoanalysis, even though international and multicultural critical perspectives continue to draw primarily on psychoanalytic theoretical and clinical modalities. The history of colonization, eugenics, and imperialism are routinely minimized or denied in accounts of psychologies of the Global North, while indigenous and non-Western and Global South traditions are fetishized and appropriated without critical analysis. The dangers of colonization of global impact, especially on psychologies not associated with industrialized worlds of the Global North, are noted in relation to dominant psychology’s insistence on neutral experimental research, reduction of human experiences to biology and animal behavior, the privileging of methods of thought and behavior control, and ethnocentric assumptions about the superiority of Western contributions of the Global North. Possibilities of critical and liberatory practices in relation to the practice of psychology with women with connections to global non-Western cultures are explored. This article concludes with a personal narrative about the dangers and limitations of the uncritical export of dominant psychologies of the Global North.
