Problematic Internet Use (PIU), with its adverse health outcomes, is a clinically established phenomenon that is not formally diagnosable yet.

Vocation has been studied from perspectives such as trait-factor, differential psychology, and psychometrics. These perspectives have assumed it to be the precursor of a unique and definitive career choice, resulting from matching personal characteristics with the requirements of a job. Vocation has also been conceptualized as the product of evolut...

Studies have shown that there is a positive association between higher differentiation of self and fewer psychological problems (Cepukiene, 2021). Differentiation of self (DoS) emerges from one's family of origin and is said to be set during late adolescence and early adulthood. It may be the case that individuals that experience interpersonal trau...

Research ON THE EQUILIBRIUM between what is best for individuals and what is best for collectives has long been central to sociology and other social sciences (Simpson and Willer, 2015). In explaining the sources of cooperation and prosocial behavior, psychologists, behavioral economists, and biologists often focus on factors internal to the indivi...

William Stern is mostly renowned for inventing the IQ formula. However, he is also the originator of the term 'differential psychology' itself. His program of differential psychology synthesized population-based correlational studies as well as idiosyncratic approaches focusing on unique profiles of individuals.

In previous research frameworks, researchers used an everyday dilemma to test people’s altruistic versus egoistic inclination. However, there are at least three different psychological processes that could induce altruistic over egoistic decisions, i.e., stronger altruistic sensitivity, weaker egoistic sensitivity, and stronger overall action versu...

Behavioral decision theory argues that humans can adjust their third-party responses (e.g., punishment and compensation) to injustice by integrating unfair experiences. Typically, the mood plays an important role in such a decision-making process. However, the underlying neurocognitive bases remain largely unclear. We first employ a modified third-...

Eugen Bleuler coined the term 'autism' in 1908 for severely withdrawn schizophrenic patients and Leo Kanner identified autism as a disorder in 1943-the basis of how we diagnose ASD today. Nevertheless, both discovered pathological features that most probably have a much longer history. According to genetics, autism has closely to do with 16p11.2, a...

The COVID-19 pandemic is an inherently stressful situation, which may lead to adverse psychosocial outcomes in various populations.

Rouder and Haaf (2021, this issue) propose a focus shift toward qualitative individual differences in cognition and present a research toolkit for doing so.

In a recently-featured commentary, Winston [1] defined scientific racism as “the use of scientific concepts and data to create and justify ideas of an enduring, biologically based hierarchy” [1, p. 425]. Winston further argued that scientific racism persists because of the “social genealogy and history” of the research program, rather than becaus...

Personality textbooks come in two forms, each with their own style of organizing content. They will either be organized in terms of historical affiliation (e.g., Freud and those theories that are historically affiliated with Freud, etc.) or they will offer a series of disparate research foci. Both approaches make it difficult for students to attain...

Although problem solving is an essential expression of intellige...

The thesis adv...
