The purpose of this study was to understand the
role of causal attributions in casual-dating
dissolution. Of 88 participants in a longitudinal
investigation of casual-dating relationships, 48
completed termination questionnaires.
Data were examined for common themes of break-up
using Kelley's theory of interdependence. Reflecting
concern for one's own outcomes in...
Two theoretical models were examined based on the contributions of
preservice teachers' personal teaching efficacy, ethnic causal attributions, past
teaching, and international interaction experiences to their behaviors toward
international children in multicultural small group activity sessions. Path analytic
results revealed that for both models, these variables together did not significantly...
Emotional understanding is important for social connection and fulfilling relationships across the lifespan. Without these skills, relationships with others can feel chaotic, unpredictable, and unattainable, affecting a person’s health and well being. Early childhood is a critical time to learn and practice foundational emotional skills that build into skills needed...

1. PPCT and Interpersonal Attribution
The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has led to transformative developments across multiple sectors, fostering innovation and redefining our interactions with technology. As AI matures and becomes integrated into society, it offers numerous opportunities to address global challenges and revolutionize a wide array of human endeavors. These advances are driven...
The purposes of this study were to find out about the associations between
hostile attributional bias and aggressive behaviors among preschool-aged children and
to identify possible sources of their hostile attributional bias. Seventy-two
preschoolers with an average age of 4.76 and their mothers acted as participants.
Children's hostile attributional bias...
Abstract: Significant declines in spring Northern Hemisphere (NH) snow cover extent (SCE) have been observed over the last five decades. As one step toward understanding the causes of this decline, an optimal fingerprinting technique is used to look for consistency in the temporal pattern of spring NH SCE between observations...
This research addresses the perception of leadership attributes in light of evaluator and target gender. It specifically investigates whether there is a difference in language usage when the evaluator is female versus when the evaluator is male. Two studies were conducted. A pre-test used instrumental development drawing from studies conducted...
Probabilistic event attribution (PEA) is an important tool for assessing the contribution of climate change to extreme weather events. Here, PEA is applied to explore the climate attribution of recent extreme heat events in California’s Central Valley. Heat waves have become progressively more severe due to increasing relative humidity and...
To understand causes and consequences of landscape change, it is often not enough to simply detect change. Rather, the agent causing the change must also be determined. Here, we describe and test a method of change agent attribution built on four tenets: agents operate on patches rather than pixels; temporal...
A new dataset synthesizes in situ and remote sensing observations from research ships deployed to the southeastern tropical Pacific stratocumulus region for 7 years in boreal fall. Surface meteorology, turbulent and radiative fluxes, aerosols, cloud properties, and rawinsonde profiles were measured on nine ship transects along 20°S from 75° to...
