Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

32.6K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Factors Affecting Perception01:25

Factors Affecting Perception

1.6K
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...

Surveys02:16

Surveys

14.8K
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.

Reliability and Validity01:29

Reliability and Validity

12.7K
Reliability and validity are two important considerations that must be made with any type of data collection. Reliability refers to the ability to consistently produce a given result. In the context of psychological research, this would mean that any instruments or tools used to collect data do so in consistent, reproducible ways.

Self-Discrepancy Theory02:45

Self-Discrepancy Theory

18.3K
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.

Social Traps01:41

Social Traps

22.3K
Social traps are negative situations where people get caught in a direction or relationship that later proves to be unpleasant, with no easy way to back out of or avoid. The concept was orignally introduced by John Platt who applied psychology to Garrett Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons", where in New England herd owners could let their cattle graze in the common ground. This situation seems like a good idea, but an individual could have an advantage. If they owned...

Area of Science:

  • Urban Planning
  • Transportation Engineering
  • Environmental Psychology

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted urban transportation systems.
  • University campuses are crucial for commuting and require effective internal transportation planning.
  • Limited research exists on inclusive campus design and user perceptions post-COVID-19.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between barrier-free environment perception and commuting satisfaction among university students.
  • To explore the mediating role of positive emotions in this relationship.
  • To provide insights for inclusive campus environment design in the post-COVID era.

Main Methods:

  • A study was conducted at Central South University's new campus.
  • 312 valid samples were collected from university students.
  • A structural equation model was employed to analyze the data.

Main Results:

  • Instantaneous barrier-free environment perceptions positively influenced commuting satisfaction.
  • Long-term positive emotions significantly enhanced commuting satisfaction.
  • Positive emotions mediated the effects of commuting attitudes and barrier-free perceptions on satisfaction.

Conclusions:

  • Accessibility design is crucial for campus environments in the post-COVID era.
  • User perspectives are vital for planning convenient and inclusive campus transportation.
  • Integrating barrier-free design principles can improve student commuting experiences.
