Factorial Design02:01

Factorial Design

13.1K
Factorial Analysis is an experimental design that applies Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) statistical procedures to examine a change in a dependent variable due to more than one independent variable, also known as factors. Changes in worker productivity can be reasoned, for example, to be influenced by salary and other conditions, such as skill level. One way to test this hypothesis is by categorizing salary into three levels (low, moderate, and high) and skills sets into two levels (entry level...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

14.8K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Factors Affecting Perception01:25

Factors Affecting Perception

1.7K
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...

Self-Discrepancy Theory02:45

Self-Discrepancy Theory

18.4K
One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.

Surveys02:16

Surveys

14.9K
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Social Proof

27.7K
Social proof is a form of persuasion based on comparison and conformity. People compare their behavior and actions to what others are doing and will change to conform to do what their peers do.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Psychology
  • Human Factors
  • Cross-Cultural Studies

Background:

  • Personal space perception is crucial for workplace well-being.
  • Understanding cultural influences on personal space is vital for globalized work environments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of social density, spatial density, and window views on personal space perception.
  • To explore cross-cultural differences in workplace personal space perception between South Korean and United Kingdom participants.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized virtual reality (VR) to simulate shared and single occupancy office environments.
  • Measured perceived personal space using a VR-based interactive disc method and compared it with questionnaire data.

Main Results:

  • Both South Korean and UK participants reported larger personal space in sparser offices and with city views.
  • British participants showed significantly higher personal space estimations in single occupancy offices compared to shared ones, unlike Korean participants.

Conclusions:

  • Office density and window views significantly affect personal space perception across cultures.
  • Subtle but important cross-cultural variations exist in how individuals perceive personal space in workplace settings.
  • Virtual reality offers a unique and effective tool for investigating nuanced workplace experiences.
