Longitudinal Research02:20

Longitudinal Research

11.7K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Halo Effect01:27

Halo Effect

856
The halo effect is a cognitive bias in which an individual's overall impression influences judgments about their specific traits. This psychological phenomenon leads people to associate positive characteristics with those they perceive as generally good and negative characteristics with those they view as bad. This effect is particularly influential in social perception, professional evaluations, and decision-making processes.The Psychological Basis of the Halo EffectThe halo effect is rooted...

Cross-Sectional Research01:50

Cross-Sectional Research

11.5K
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Social Loafing01:37

Social Loafing

29.3K
Another way in which a group presence can affect performance is social loafing—the exertion of less effort by a person working together with a group. Social loafing occurs when our individual performance cannot be evaluated separately from the group. Thus, group performance declines on easy tasks (Karau & Williams, 1993). Essentially individual group members loaf and let other group members pick up the slack. Because each individual’s efforts cannot be evaluated,...

Longitudinal Studies01:26

Longitudinal Studies

709
Longitudinal studies are also widely used in other medical and social science fields. For instance, in cardiovascular research, they can monitor patients' health over decades to identify risk factors for heart disease, such as high cholesterol or smoking, and evaluate the long-term effectiveness of preventive measures. Similarly, in mental health studies, researchers might follow individuals from adolescence into adulthood to understand the development and progression of conditions like...

Factors Affecting Perception01:25

Factors Affecting Perception

3.3K
Perception is influenced by perceptual set, context, motivation, and emotion. Perceptual set, or perceptual expectancy, refers to the tendency to perceive things in a particular way, influenced by previous experiences and expectations. This phenomenon affects the interpretation of stimuli, creating a set of mental tendencies and assumptions that impact sensory perceptions of sound, taste, touch, and sight.
An illustrative example of a perceptual set is the scenario where an airline pilot told...

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • Environmental Psychology
  • Workplace Design

Background:

  • Workplace design significantly influences employee well-being and productivity.
  • Open-plan offices have been debated for their advantages and disadvantages since the 1970s.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess changes in perceived health, work environment, and self-estimated productivity.
  • To investigate these changes one month before and at three, six, and twelve months after relocating to an open-plan office.

Main Methods:

  • Longitudinal study involving employees relocated from private to open-plan offices.
  • Utilized validated questionnaires including The Salutogenic Health Indicator Scale and The Work Experience Measurement Scale.
  • Data collected at baseline and at 3, 6, and 12 months post-relocation with response rates of 70-85%.

Main Results:

  • A general deterioration in perceived health was observed post-relocation.
  • Job satisfaction and self-estimated performance also showed a decline over the twelve-month period.

Conclusions:

  • Relocation to open-plan offices was associated with decreased employee perception of health, work environment, and performance.
  • The negative effects on employee well-being and productivity persisted up to twelve months after the move.
