Book Description
Drawing on the traditional internal-external dichotomy embraced by attribution research in other non-relational domains, research on attributions in romantic relationships has largely focused on distinguishing between the impact of making partner (internal) and external attributions. Given that past research on relationship cognitions showed that people think in relationship specific ways (e.g., relational schemas; Baldwin, 1992), I propose the need for the inclusion for attributions that capture relationship-specific causes. With that in mind, the present research explored the incremental value of interpersonal attributions, which refer to the perception that a partner’s behaviors are caused by their love and care (or lack of) for the self and/or the relationship. To establish the importance of interpersonal attributions in relationship research, the aims of the present research are fourfold: 1) to develop a new measure of interpersonal attributions; 2) to demonstrate the unique predictive value of interpersonal attributions on relationship outcomes, beyond internal and external attributions; 3) to illuminate the process through which interpersonal attributions predict relationship satisfaction; and 4) to explore the boundary conditions of the effects of interpersonal attributions. Findings from three studies highlight the importance of moving beyond the dichotomy of internal-external attributions in relationship research. First, factor analyses of data from longitudinal (Study 1) and cross-sectional (Study 2) studies demonstrate that interpersonal attributions represent a discrete factor not captured by the internal-external distinction. Second, regression results showed that interpersonal attributions predict relationship satisfaction, over and above internal and external attributions. Taken together, these two findings provide evidence for the incremental value of interpersonal attribution. Next, with the aim of explicating the direct effects between attributions and relationship satisfaction, Study 3 tests a moderated mediation model. Study 3 showed that the effects of interpersonal attributions on relationship satisfaction were mediated by cognitive and affective responses [Perceived Relationship Quality Component Index (PRQC index); Fletcher, Simpson, & Thomas, 2000] as well as partner perceptions [Interpersonal Qualities Scale (IQS); Murray, Holmes, & Griffin, 2000]. Furthermore, these effects were not moderated by the belief that effort can cultivate a successful relationship (i.e., growth theory; Knee, 1998). Overall, the findings suggest that the inclusion of interpersonal attributions contribute meaningfully to the discourse on the impact of divergent attribution patterns for partner’s behaviors in close relationships.""--Author's abstract.

Attribution Theory in the Organizational Sciences
Author: Mark J. Martinko
Publisher: IAP
ISBN: 1607528215
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
This book argues that conventional interpretations of Freudian psychology have not accounted for the existence and complexity of death anxiety and its intrinsic relation to the creation of illusions and delusions. This book contends that there is sufficient evidence to support the view that death anxiety is not only a symptom of certain modes of psychopathology, but is a very normal and central emotional threat human beings deal with only by impeding awareness of the threat from entering consciousness. The immanence of the fear of death requires vigilant defensive and coping techniques, especially the distortion of reality through these defenses and fantasies, so that over-whelming terror does not psychologically cripple the organism. The fear of death is so horrific that human beings must insulate themselves in religious, social, and private illusions, rituals, obsessive pursuits, self-glorification, and myriad desperate attempts to lie about the quintessential nature of reality. Death is that terror that induces psychopathology. This book demonstrates that a careful reading of Freud reveals a copious amount of material supporting these propositions.

Attribution Theory
Author: Sandra Graham
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1317784227
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 245
Book Description
This unusual volume begins with a historical overview of the growth of attribution theory, setting the stage for the three broad domains of application that are addressed in the remainder of the book. These include applications to: achievement strivings in the classroom and the sports domain; issues of mental health such as analyses of stress and coping and interpretations of psychotherapy; and personal and business conflict such as buyer- seller disagreement, marital discord, dissension in the workplace, and international strife. Because the chapters in Attribution Theory are more research-based than practice- oriented, this book will be of great interest and value to an audience of applied psychologists.
