Adam Ruined My Research | Psychology Today - 5 views

    "Jean M Twenge Ph.D" discusses how research presented in Adam Conover's YouTube video "Millennials Don't Exist" was misrepresented and how she and Adam were later able to discuss their differing viewpoints rather than bash each other on social media as many would have.

    These two articles are great. She linked to another article in there "How do we know the millennial generation exists? Look at the data" that made me appreciate more how they study generational differences- they compare the results of surveys given to 18 year olds of different years. That does sound like a much more powerful way to measure generational differences. One of the examples was the change in opinion of same sex marriages between 18 year olds in 1976 and today, which made a giant leap in approval. I'm curious what a survey of those now 61 year olds feel about the same topic- if their approval also raised, while it would show a generational difference of opinion at a certain age, it might show a closer agreement between generations on certain topics in the here and now. I wonder how those 18 year olds in 1976 compared to people 43 years older then them, too! I liked her final optimistic take on discussing differing viewpoints. At the same time, I don't necessarily agree with her that all speakers (certainly some of the ones who were banned from speaking at universities) should be given a platform. While discussion is always good, it needs to be honest and faithful; I don't believe that some people are interested in discussion, they just want to win and prove themselves right.

    I wish more people could debate that way! I agree that not everyone wants to discuss- some just want to argue and be heard!

    Thanks for sharing! Twenge has had to defend a lot of her literature on generational studies. I read her iGen book before and the criticism she's received on that topic as well. Very interesting!

Facebook: Lurking, Liking and Life Satisfaction | Psychology Today - 2 views

  •  
    Research shared by Dr. Karen E. Dill-Shackelford that says: "It turns out that such lurkers should beware. A new study says that while Facebook activity may be a sort of combination of fun and boredom for many, it predicts problems for the lurkers. We may need to look out for Facebook envy in ourselves. In a study of emotional experience on Facebook (4), researchers in Germany discovered that a lot of frustration people experience on the site comes from envy. And that envy is much more likely to happen to lurkers than to those who actively participate on Facebook. "

    Thank you for sharing that article! It is really interesting and similar to the concerns addressed in the first article. I just do not understand the default assumption and position that self-disclosure in online spaces will damage the interaction between the stakeholders. In the end, they (e.g., student-teacher, doctor-patient) both perform what they are expected to perform in a work-related context. Self-disclosing individual aspects should not discredit one's expertise, credibility, etc. I am curious about your perspectives. :-)

    Thank you for the reply! What struck me as valid about the article is that for some relationships, there is no self-disclosure on one side, and maximun self-disclosure on the other. The article talked about psychotherapists. Typically, the individual in therapy knows nothing or very little about the therapist, while the therapist gets to know the person in theapy quite well - one supposes. While I personally would like to know something about the "personness" of a therapist, prevailing opinion is that, should the person in therapy gain knowledge of the therapist through social media, it would damage the theraputic relationship. Same thing with doctors. Perhaps the same thing with priests. I'm a bit paranoid about too much self-disclosure, except for the ADHD thing, so if I where a therapist, I would be OK. However, if I blogged on my struggles with Therapy School, thoughts about patients, etc... I would be more worried. Actually,blogging about patients might cause you to lose your license... and it should! I know all this because my husband is a psychologist. It's almost impossible to have a conversation about his work without violating some ethical code or another. :-)

    I think I agree with you in the idea that in some relationships there is no mutual disclosure because we expect and accept a level of certain patterns of behavior or let's say self-disclosure. As you have mentioned, while we do not anticipate a therapist to self-disclose 'personal' aspects, the same goes with the person. S/he is expected to self-disclose. I am not familiar with the therapist/person interaction, but I can make connections from my personal experiences. They both have 'preferred, expected' rights and duties in relation to each other. While a therapist may be legitimate to know whether the person is ADHD or not or whatsoever, it sounds reasonable. However, when it comes to the person whether the therapist is an ADHD or whatsoever, wait! A therapist and ADHD??? No way. I wish I read about an expert's perspectives in a blog form that may potentially heal my wounds or others. But at the same time, it is not easy to establish. One of the tensions that I need to resolve, in the end. I am glad that you shared your experiences. Such a nurturing conversation. :-)

Motivation and sustained participation in the online crowdsourcing community: the moder... - 2 views

  • Specifically, reputation-based reward satisfies crowdworkers' need for status improvement (Ye and Kankanhalli, 2017); recognition-based reward meets their need for positive recognition and attention (Leimeister et al., 2009) and feedback-based reward enables them to acquire concrete information about the quality and value of their submission (Feng et al., 2018).
  • Specifically, hedonic reward highlights the importance of providing enjoyable participation experiences (Rockmann and Ballinger, 2017; Ye and Kankanhalli, 2017); and eudaimonic reward emphasizes the necessity to promote crowdworkers' tendency to employ crowdsourcing community for psychologically worthwhile experiences (Mekler and Hornbæk, 2016).
  • There are four types of contextual extrinsic motivations in the online crowdsourcing community: monetary reward, reputation-based reward, recognition-based reward and feedback-based reward.

  • There are two types of contextual intrinsic motivations in the online crowdsourcing community: hedonic reward and eudaimonic reward. Hedonic reward refers to the pleasures and enjoyment of engaging in the online crowdsourcing community (Deng and Joshi, 2016).
  • Eudaimonic reward refers to the crowdworkers' need for achieving self-determination value and fulfilling their life pursuit in the online crowdsourcing community (Ryan et al., 2008).
  •  
    In their study, Wei and Xiang (2021) examine how motivation sustains participation in an online sourcing community. After reading Zhao and Zhu's (2014) work, I explored this topic further as they recommended it for future research. Overall, their work revealed that both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation were critical. External motivators included improved reputation, recognition, and feedback, whereas internal motivators related to emotional feelings of happiness and pleasure.
