Naturally, we may assume that group rapport is critical for producing high-quality group performance (such as among work groups, sports teams, or even research collaborators). With this in mind, the purpose of this investigation was to test this assumption by exploring the relationship between self-reported group rapport and group-level social...
Cascadia is the physiographic region defined by the active tectonics and attendant geo-hazards of the Cascadia Subduction Zone.

The ambiguity plaguing the definition of empathy has not only been constrained to its content (i.e., assessing decoding or encoding) but how it is expressed in the individual (i.e., as a trait or ability). Any separation in the theorizing of a construct should be clearly reflected and labeled in the...
Do freshmen achieve less of their personal and academic short-term goals in comparison to upperclassmen?
Some may intuitively assume that due to age, or lack of experience, college freshmen would have lower perceived task-specific ability (self-efficacy) and actually achieve less (goal-completion ranging from 0% to 100%). Differences between various class-standing...
