IInd Conference on Time Perspective – Warsaw 2014

Welcome note

Welcome Note WELCOME to Warsaw, host of the IInd International Conference on Time Perspective (ICTP). On behalf of the Organizing Committee of ICTP, we would like to invite you to take part in the conference that will take place from the 29th July to 1st of August 2014 in Warsaw (Poland). Our intention as the Organizers is to provide participants with an opportunity to present their novel research on time perspective, to share their ideas, to establish a collaboration, and to inspire to discover new possibilities of research.

The motto for our conference is “Diversity of Approaches, Unity of Passion” that promises different approaches to temporality. Thus, the program of the conference will cover a variety of topics on time perspective that for sure will be of interest to all of the participants. As the Organizing Committee we are working on providing all the participants with a memorable event.

Time is one of the most valuable resources and the most descriptive for the notion of ‚perspective’. Many people are tempted to understand the nature of time and therefore interested in analyzing it. After the 1st successful meeting in Coimbra in 2012 we invite you to the follow-up IInd International Conference on Time Perspective in Warsaw, where the approaches from the Western and Eastern cultures can be confronted. We invite you to take part in this promising and fruitful debate.

Keynote Lecture: Time Perspective Coaching Learning to balance one’s time perspective enables individuals to avoid the negative consequences of excessive reliance on particular time frames while optimizing their cognitive flexibility to shift temporal focus to satisfy situational demands. Achieving a balanced time perspective, or even simply minimizing existing excessive biases, is not easy. It requires an awareness of one’s current temporal orientation, overcoming cultural, social and situational pressures for sustaining a more limited orientation, and a will to live a healthy, socially connected, productive life.

Since then, a significant amount of research has explored the relevance of the CFC construct across a wide range of settings (e.g., financial decision-making, health and environmental behavior, functioning in interpersonal relations). The present talk will trace the origin and development of the CFC construct, highlighting key theoretical, applied, and measurement issues. Fundamental theories of intertemporal choice, self-control, broad personality traits, and CFC will be reviewed to highlight the broader theoretical context within which the CFC construct is located.

A summary of work illustrating the applied implications of CFC will then be offered. Recent research highlighting the empirical and theoretical advantages of a two-factor structure of the CFC construct will next be presented. Finally, a number of possibly risky but also arguably profitable directions for future research will be outlined, with particular emphasis on untapped potential within the emerging movement known as transformative consumer research, which focuses largely on facilitating consumer decisions that benefit the consumer, society, and the environment in the long-run.

Keynote Lecture: The Past is in the Mind of the Beholder. Cultural variations in the temporal integration of the past and future in the present.

Time perspective generally assesses how individuals self-report the degree to which the past, present and future is Accessible, Vivid, Valued and Valenced. The assessment of TP and the implications for attitudes, cognition and behavior have been generally based on a personal narrative—i.e., autobiographical. I raise the possibility that one’s personal time perspective may be influenced by their awareness of a collective identity, which affects the meaning of the past, present and future.

Collective TP may interact with personal TP to forge a convergent time perspective with divergent consequences for different cultural groups. I will specifically focus on the role of the collective past as a context for the personal present and future. I will discuss the Sankofa effect, the Marley effect, Possible selves, and some of the ways on which the past is dynamically linked to the present and future. I will discuss some mechanisms that may mediate how it is construed and integrated with the present self, and provides a basis for decision making about one’s personal future. Using race as the model, I explore how the past is a critical component of temporal integration—the convergence of the past and future in the present—and suggest that this integration is particularly critical for members of marginalized and oppressed groups.

Abstracts: Keynote Speakers Zbigniew ZALESKI is a Professor of Psychology in the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, Poland.

Research interests in human motivation, time perspective, values, emotions, private possession and privacy, cross-cultural approach to interethnic contacts. Has teaching experience abroad: UCLA, KULeuven (Belgium), Nancy (France), Free University of Berlin.

Keynote Lecture: Future Time in hope and anxiety perspective The vast majority of research on TP is focused on positive planning, thinking, goal setting. It is good so far as it conveys the constructive value of this temporal dimension. However, the attitudes towards personal or world future can be marked by negative feelings, fears and worries. To partly cover this field there has been introduced the concept of Future Anxiety (Zaleski, 1991). Accumulating data show its non-constructive role in the future goal realization as well as in present activities. The psychology of FTP should consider both dimensions – not undermining the powerful role of goal theory but at the same time not devaluating or ignoring the role of future anxiety in individual strivings.

Philip G. ZIMBARDO is an internationally recognized scholar, educator, researcher and media personality, winning numerous awards and honors in each of these domains. He has been a Stanford University professor since 1968, having taught previously at Yale, NYU and Columbia. Zimbardo's career is noted for giving psychology away to the public through his popular PBS-TV series, Discovering Psychology, along with many text and trade books, among his 300+ publications. He is a former president of the American Psychological Association. He became known for his Stanford prison study, and with John N. Boyd he developed the Time Perspective Theory. He has authored various introductory psychology books, textbooks for college students, and books including The Lucifer Effect, The Time Paradox and, recently, the The Time Cure.

IInd Conference on Time Perspective – Warsaw 2014

Abstracts: Special session

Special session: Finances and Time Perspective Nicholas P. CLEMENTS, Co-Founder at mignifymoney.com, USA Financial products can be complex and difficult to understand. And the consequences of poor financial decisions are severe. Borrowing money at an excessively high interest rate means that you have to work years longer to pay off your debt. Following the wrong investment advice can make your retirement difficult. Buying a home you can not afford, with a mortgage you can not pay, increases the risk of bankruptcy, foreclosure or worse. Traditional public policy has focused on financial literacy training.

For example, people are taught how to calculate compounding interest. Or, they are taught the difference between different types of investment products.

MagnifyMoney.com was founded by veterans of the financial and banking industry. And they had a hypothesis: people often make poor financial decisions. And the reason they make those poor decisions is not limited to a lack of financial literacy. Financial decisions are made in the heat of the moment, and your time perspective has a big influence on the decisions you make. So, MagnifyMoney.com teamed up with Professor Zimbardo and conducted research in 6 countries, with over 3,000 people.

We administered the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, a Financial Literacy exam and a Financial Health survey.

We found that your Time Perspective is strongly correlated with financial health. In some cases, it is more important that being able to do the math (the traditional financial literacy measure). For example, a Present Hedonist has a high likelihood of being Financially “Sick,� even if they have a high degree of financial literacy.

The strong correlation between time perspective and financial health raises important questions for public policy, financial regulation and corporate responsibility. It also offers a way for consumers to protect themselves in a confusing financial world, using their time perspective as a guide to the financial decisions they should make.

Abstracts: Special session

Dominika MAISON, University of Warsaw, Poland Katarzyna SEKĹšCIĹƒSKA, University of Warsaw, Poland Traditionally, financial decisions are explained using economic variables (mostly income and price) and demographics (e.g. age, gender, education or place of living). Therefore, it is often believed that people who have more money to their disposal (higher income) should have higher savings and be more interested in financial instruments associated with investing and insurance than those who have less money.

Analogically, the difference among those who save vs. do not save money or are interested in different financial products is often explained by differences in level of education, age or gender. As a consequence, financial institutions define their target groups and look at their clients mostly from perspective of those features. This way of thinking about financial decisions and motivators explaining it is very simplified.

In the presentation we are going to show empirical proofs that explaining different financial decisions (e.g. saving, investing, buying insurance)needs taking into account both objective (e.g. level of income, demographics) and psychological (life satisfaction, perception of financial situation and especially time perspective) factors.

Presented data are based on 3 survey studies conducted in Poland, all based on nationwide representative sample (each n=1000 participants).

The questionnaire included the basic financial decision questions associated with saving, investing and insurance, demographic variables and psychological variable, such as life satisfaction and time perspective.

Time perspective was measured using the SZTPI-15 - shortened version of the questionnaire ZTPI (Howell, Zhang, 2014).

The results showed that people more satisfied with life are more prone to save and invest money and to buy different type of insurance.

Moreover time perspective also seems to be a very important psychological factor determining financial decisions and behaviors. Three dimensions of time perspective are the most important to explain the financial decisions and behaviors related to securing the future and deleying gratification: past negative, present fatalistic, future. High level of past negative time perspective characterized people that do not have any optional ensurance. People who were high on the past negative and 56

IInd Conference on Time Perspective – Warsaw 2014

Abstracts: Special session present fatalistic variable are less prone to save (and do not have savings) and invest money (and have less experience in that) but more prone to consume. Strong future time perspective is connected with a propensity to purchase different optional ensurance, tendency to save (and having savings) and invest and experience in investing (also in risky financial instruments). Other time perspectives were not relevant in context of financial decisions and behaviors, except the propensity to consume – here, next to earlier mentioned perspectives, also relevant was present hedonistic: those who scored higher on this dimension were more prone to spend their money on consumption, than on saving or investing.

Ludvig LEVASSEUR, University of Paris-Dauphine, France Findings from seminal and recent articles indicate that the sum of the views individuals hold about their past, present, and future (i.e., their time perspective) influences their cognitions and behaviors. We extend these findings to the field of entrepreneurship and suggest that time perspective influences entrepreneurs’ alertness. We propose a theoretical framework to better understand the role time perspective plays in key aspects of entrepreneurship (herein, entrepreneurial alertness).

Abstracts: Workshop

Workshop How to Publish High-Quality Research: Paradigms, Processes and Insights from Leading Scholars Jeff JOIREMAN, PhD, Department of Marketing, Washington State University, USA This 3-hour workshop will offer attendees a systematic overview of the processes and paradigms leading to high-quality research, based on the forthcoming book “How to Publish High-Quality Research” (Joireman & Van Lange; forthcoming in December 2014 from the American Psychological Association). The workshop will be arranged around three major steps in the research process, including discovering, building, and sharing the contribution.

Insights and illustrations from leading scholars in the fields of social and consumer psychology will be highlighted throughout the workshop.

Topics Covered: • Sixteen “action strategies” for discovering high-quality ideas • Crucial role of theory in framing research contributions • Navigating emerging ethical challenges in data collection, analysis and reporting • Eight distinct “paradigms for publishing high-quality research” (e.g., bridging disciplines, challenging assumptions, combining moderators and mediators, venturing into the real world).

• Tips for writing and revising • Process Model for Publishing High-Quality Research with implications for training and mentoring After presenting the key topics noted above, the workshop will be opened up to questions, answers, and feedback.

The workshop is designed to be of interest to graduate students, emerging scholars, and established scholars in a wide range of social and behavioral disciplines.

Abstracts: Workshop

Round Table Time Perspective in a Consultation Room: We and our clients. The challenges and rewards of time perspective counseling, psychotherapy and coaching Elena KAZAKINA, PhD, Licensed clinical psychologist in independent practice, USA Two years ago, at the Ist International TP Conference in Coimbra there were only few of us who practiced Time Perspective therapy, however the interest in this topic was very strong.

Now, in 2014 in Warsaw it is exciting to find out new developments in this emerging area of TP. This Round Table intends to give voices and to see faces of those of you who are already using temporal interventions in your work with clients, and also those who are just becoming interested in the application of TP empirical findings into clinical practice.

Here are some issues we will address: • What exactly is Time Perspective Therapy?

• What is a healthy time perspective?

• What temporal interventions seem most productive on a path to psychological health?

• How do our own personal and theoretical temporal ideas, preferences and biases affect our work with clients?

• How our clinical discoveries can inform further research ?

The Round Table discussion will be moderated by Elena Kazakina, PhD, licensed psychologist in independent private practice in New York Metropolitan Area, USA. Kazakina earned her doctorate from Columbia University and developed time perspective counseling based on her dissertation research.

She has 15 years of experience in applying temporal strategies in her clinical work including at Trinitas Hospital, Shorefront Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing Care and Comprehensive Sleep Disorder Institute.

Invited Symposia 30th July Chronotype - the circadian time perspective Chairperson Konrad JANKOWSKI, Faculty of Psychology University of Warsaw, Poland konrad.jankowski@psych.uw.edu.pl Symposium Chronotype, also termed the morningness-eveningness abstract preference is a psychological time construct describing individual preferences regarding optimal functioning at various times of the day. Due to the robust manifestation in the timing of sleep, chronotype is one of the easiest for observation aspect of personality. People are typically categorized into three main chronotypes: morning, evening, and neither (predominating in the population), which are recognized in everyday language (e.g. larks, night owls). During the last two decades chronotype has attracted much attention of scientists and the present symposium aims to provide the most current state of knowledge and define new venues of research integrating various psychological time constructs. We will present the results of psychophysiological research using heart rate variability and neuroimaging paradigms to discuss physiological underpinnings of chronotype, and combine them with results regarding subjective and performance-based measures. We will also present applied topics, like links between chronotype and school performance or behavioral problems. Finally, we will provide detailed analysis of relationships between chronotype and the past-present-future time perspective.

Self-regulatory capacities and the associations between chronotype and time perspective Taciano L. MILFONT, School of Psychology Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand taciano.milfont@vuw.ac.nz Recent research has started to examine the associations among different psychological time constructs. In particular, studies from at least five countries have linked chronotype (morning-types or evening-types) and future time perspective, showing that morning-types are more future-oriented while evening-types are more presentoriented. In the present talk I will summarise our ongoing research program on the mechanism that could explain the chronotype–time perspective relationships.

In an initial study we found that self-control mediates the influence of morningness on both future time perspective and delay of gratification. Our recent work has used a longitudinal design with both subjective (selfreport questionnaire) and objective indicators (physiological measures of heart rate variability and salivary cortisol) to unpack the associations between morningness and future orientation. Drawing from our correlational findings and extant literature, we speculate that self-control and self-regulatory capacities underlie morningness and future focus. This line of research offers some contribution about how self-control may lead to future orientation, and the psychological and physiological underpinnings of chronotype. chronotype, future orientation, self-control, selfregulation

Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour (IR3C), Barcelona, Spain. anna.muro@uab.cat Sensation seeking (Zuckerman et al., 1978) is a personality trait defined by “the seeking of varied, novel, complex, and intense sensations and experiences, and the willingness to take physical, social, legal, and financial risks for the sake of such experience”. The relationship between sensation seeking and circadian typology was first studied in an adult sample (Tonetti et al., 2010), showing that evening type subjects obtained higher sensation seeking scores than morning types. The present study aimed to analyse the relationship between sensation seeking and circadian typology in an adolescent sample of 688 students from 12 to 16 years old. Results showed that evening-type adolescents of both sexes scored significantly higher than neither-types and morning types on sensation seeking total score. The implications of these results, also found in adults, suggest that evening-type adolescents have a greater desire for varied, new, complex, and intense sensations, they are ready for experiencing more risks and experiences that include seeking out a higher amount of variability in the level of stimulation and engaging in exploratory behaviours that modulate individuals’ arousal needs.

Therefore, the implications of this study also suggest the need of being aware of individual differences in the SS trait in evening-type adolescents, as well as taking into

This study aims to investigate the relationship between chronotype and academic achievement in children with the average age of 10.22 (range: 8.17−12.17). Previous works had focused on secondary school students and this is the first research investigating primary school students in grade four. A total of 1125 children (536 girls, 584 boys and 5 sex unspecified) participated in this study. They filled in an intelligence test (CFT 20) and a paper-pencilquestionnaire. We implemented questions about wake times and bed times, academic achievement (measured by grades in Mathematics, German, English and Nature & Culture), conscientiousness (FFPI-C) and motivation (SELLMO). Results showed that boys and girls did not differ in chronotype. There were significant differences between girls and boys in academic performance but the direction was subject-specific: Girls did better in languages (German, English) and Nature & Culture, but

The first experiment included eight morning- and eight evening-oriented female volunteers (mean age 23.4 ± 1.9 years) performing a spatial cueing task at four times of day (10:00, 14:00, 18:00, 22:00).

This was an event-related fMRI study, where participants performed a series of leftwards and rightwards saccades to the targets preceded with congruent or incongruent cue. The activations of brain structures involved in correct saccadic reactions exhibited characteristic diurnal patterns – decreasing for morning types (LSD post-hoc, 22:00 vs. other times – p < 0.05) and stable for eveningoriented subjects (LSD post-hoc n.s.). The second experiment was prepared analogically, only here a dense-array EEG was recorded simultaneously with eyetracking in eleven morning- and eleven evening-oriented subjects (11 females; mean age 22.7 ± 1.6 years) at four times of day. An ERP analysis of the incongruent trials revealed strong P3a potential, which peaked 280 ms after target onset. This amplitude was sensitive to the chronotype × time-of-day interaction, showing similar pattern as the one observed in fMRI study, i.e. decreasing for morning types (LSD post-hoc, 22:00 vs. other times – p < 0.05) and stable for evening-oriented individuals (LSD post-hoc n.s). These converging results of fMRI and EEG experiments are consistent with the theoretical model of sleep/wake regulation by

The presented studies aimed to test whether activity of autonomic nervous system could be considered as a physiological basis of the preferred times of day, and whether a pattern of its activity could be treated as a psychophysiological characteristic differentiating individuals with various chronotypes. In study 1 university students were categorized as morning, neither, or evening types and underwent repeated measures at three times of day, morning, afternoon, and evening hours. During each testing session they completed simple reaction time task, filled in mood questionnaire, and their heart rate was continuously recorded to allow for spectral analysis of heart rate variability. Overall, subjective energy and reaction time corresponded to the preferred times of day, but not the activity of autonomic nervous system.

However, analysis of daily levels of heart rate variability revealed morning and evening types showing greater sympathetic dominance as compared to neither types.

Particularly, in evening types this sympathetic dominance resulted from parasympathetic withdrawal. In study 2 IInd Conference on Time Perspective â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Warsaw 2014

cardiac patients were tested for chronotype and time of day when heart attack occurred (indirect measure of autonomic nervous system activity). Heart attack occurrence differed according to time of day, but its timing was not related to chronotype. However, cardiac patients exhibited greater eveningness compared to noncardiac individuals. Eveningness seems related to increased sympathetic dominance due to parasympathetic withdrawal, what is reflected in increased risk of cardiovascular diseases in evening chronotypes. chronotype, heart rate variability, mood, reaction time, time of day

Symposium abstract

Toshiaki SHIRAI, Faculty of Education, Osaka Kyoiku University, shirai@cc.osaka-kyoiku.ac.jp; Manabu TSUZUKI, Department of Psychology, Chuo University, manabu@tamacc.chuo-u.ac.jp This symposium is based on the future time perspective (FTP) theory (Lens, 1986; Nuttin & Lens, 1985). The FTP theory defines the concept of FTP as a cognitivemotivational construct. By setting goals in the near or more distant future, human beings develop their individual FTPs. It can be characterized by their content (i.e., what people are striving for) and extension or depth (i.e., how far into the future individuals set their goals).

Individual differences in the content and extension of FTP have motivational consequences. The empirical evidences support the theory by indicating that future time perspective plays a significant role in educational and career development in adolescence and emerging adulthood (e.g., Hilpert, Husman, Stump, Kim, Chung, &

As the theory argues mainly in the educational settings and in the Western countries, this symposium strengthens the body of the theory, based on longitudinal studies, cross-cultural examination, and expanding the perspective of theory towards the past. We will suggest that the core of the theory indicating time integration between the future and present can provide also a basis of better understanding of internal process such as internal regulation, mindfulness, self-value, consciousness to the past, present and future and a theoretical foundation of promoting well-being in contemporary precarious society. Through discussion, we will share basic ideas of the concept of time perspectives with participants in the conference. time perspective, FTP theory, connectedness, motivation, development, culture

Developmental change of time perspective during the transition from junior high school to high school Manabu TSUZUKI, Department of Psychology, Chuo University, manabu@tamacc.chuo-u.ac.jp This study investigated the individual difference in trajectories of hope during the transition from junior high school to high school. The participants of this study were recruited at school when they were 9th grade (15 years old) of junior high school. A sheet of questionnaire was conducted at classroom. Students who offered to attend a follow-up survey were asked to write their postal address in the questionnaire. Finally, 733 of students participated second times of longitudinal survey. Using these informations, the second survey by postal mail was conducted when they were 10th grade (16 years old) of high school. Cluster analysis using four sub-scale of selfconsciousness (self-value, existence of significant others, self-denial, feeling of self-satisfaction) found six different types of self-consciousness; (a) constant self-value group, (b) self-denial group, (c) self-affirmative group, (d) construction of human relations group, (e) self-conflict group, and (f) loss of human relations group. Selfaffirmative group and construction of human relations group showed a significant increment of hope of the future. On the contrary, self-denial group, loss of human relations group, and constant self-value group showed a significant decline of hope of the future. In addition, construction of human relations group and selfaffirmative group showed a significant decline of emptiness. On the contrary, self-denial group, loss of human relations group, and constant self-value group showed a significant increment of emptiness. It is suggested that constructions of a new network of human relations had positive effects on development of time

From the self-determination theory is known that more internal controlled regulation will lead to better motivation for school. That is why a study of the developments of young adolescents’ time perspectives, their self-regulation of learning and achievement at school can be interesting in an apparently problematic period for adolescents’ learning motivation. Some students foresee the consequences of their behavior for their future and their appraisal of future goals makes them put effort into the attainment of their future goals (Nuttin & Lens, 1985).

This seems already to include a relation between time perspective and the internalization of goals. Indeed, a study with high school and university students showed positive associations between future time perspective and identified regulation. Using another concept time perspective, in which someone’s affect, cognition, and behavioral intentions, towards a certain life domain on a term in the future is combined, the longitudinal relation of developments of time perspective with selfdetermination in learning and achievement is tested with IInd Conference on Time Perspective – Warsaw 2014

The interviews were individually conducted another day after the work. Before and after the work and interviews, participants were asked to answer a questionnaire that was composed of the scales which measured one’s view on the past, goal consciousness and emptiness. They were classified into two groups, group 1 (N = 20) with connecting their past, present and future positively and group 2 (N = 9) with connecting their past,

They were asked to answer a questionnaire that was composed of the Time Beliefs Scale (Shirai, 1985) and the Identity Status Scale (Kato, 1983). Time beliefs, which refer to a belief system about relations between the future and the present, consisted of 3 components: delay of gratification, unconcern for future and mindful-present; Identity consisted of 3 IInd Conference on Time Perspective â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Warsaw 2014

Bivariate latent growth models showed that, first, future orientation as predominately future oriented in terms of delay of gratification and concern to the future predicted positively both identity commitment and exploration; Second, mindful-present predicted negatively commitment but positively exploration. These results indicate the importance of future orientation in identity formation, which confirms the findings of previous studies (Luyckx, Goossens, Lens, & Soenens, 2010; Seginer & Noyman, 2005), and also the possibility that mindfulness can produce a regression in identity cycle (Marcia, 2002) through weakening commitment and arousing exploration, which leads to the construction of a new identity that can be fit to a new life state during a transitional period. mindfulness, time orientation, identity, value, emerging adulthood, longitudinal study The content and extension of Future time perspective (FTP) and their relation to career planning in a sample of Portuguese and Brazilian adolescents Maria Paula PAIXÃO, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, University of Coimbra, Hilda BAYMA, UNIDERC, Brazil mppaixao@fpce.uc.pt Adolescence and emergent adulthood are critical periods for development of present and future identity and by then students’ mental representation of the future influences their academic motivation and career planning behavior.

the benefits of future orientation for health outcomes including non-procrastinating health behaviors among diverse medical samples. In examining the role of future self perceptions for explaining the link between procrastination and health behaviours and well-being, the second paper highlights the disjunction between the present and future self that characterizes procrastination and its negative health consequences. The lack of considering the future may be especially problematic for student procrastinators because of their developmental stage as illustrated in the third paper which examines the mental health implications of unnecessary delay for Greek students. The final paper provides a critical review of the effectiveness of the three key interventions for reducing procrastination, highlighting important research directions to better understand the type or combination of intervention that may be most effect for combating the temporal self-regulation failure we know as procrastination. We end with a discussion of the value of addressing procrastination and its consequences for health and well-being from a temporal framework. future orientation; procrastination; health; well-being Procrastination, mental health and life-satisfaction: The vicious cycles of a fatal relationship Maria- Ioanna ARGIROPOULOU, Department of Psychology, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece Andreas SIATIS, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece Anastasia KALANTZI-AZIZI, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece gmargirop@gmail.com Procrastination is related to a present fatalistic view of time aiming to protect well-being in the short term.

put emphasis on novelty and sensation seeking and do not plan for future goals. This tendency is expected to be even stronger among undergraduate university students due to the special characteristics of their developmental stage. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between general and academic procrastination with mental health and life satisfaction. A total of 182 Greek university students completed the procrastination Assessment Scale-Students(Solomon & Rothblum, 1984), General Procrastination Scale (Lay, 1986), Life Satisfaction Scale (Diener, Emmons, Larsen, & Griffin, 1985), Mental Health Inventory (Veit & Ware, 1983) and Beck’s Anxiety Inventory (Beck & Steer,1993).

Results revealed that students who had the tendency to procrastinate in general, or their academic obligations, in particular, reported less psychological well-being, more anxiety, more psychological distress, less emotional ties, less general positive affect, more loss of behavioral and emotional control, more depressive symptoms and less life satisfaction. Discussion will focus on the mechanisms explaining the relationship between procrastination and mental health as well as maintaining factors and therapeutic approaches to the above problems. In conclusion difficulty to meet deadlines within a specific time-frame is related to worse mental health and overall life satisfaction. Early diagnosis and effective treatment of procrastination or underlying psychological disorders such as anxiety or depression is thus crucial to diminish the suffering and to increase overall well –being of students.

Interventions to overcome procrastination: A review and a research agenda Wendelien VAN EERDE, Business School, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands w.vaneerde@uva.nl Procrastination â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the avoidance of the implementation of an intention, resulting in delay - is a problem that many people struggle with. Although procrastination is traitlike, many also suggest that it can be overcome, or at least be diminished. What are effective ways to do so? I approach this question by reviewing the research conducted on procrastination interventions. Roughly, there are three types of interventions. First, planning or related cognitive-motivational structuring interventions to affect time perspective and to decrease delays.

Second, building confidence and emotional skills needed for self-control in implementing plans. Third, social support, or receiving control from others to sustain the efforts needed in overcoming procrastination. Many interventions have combined the types mentioned above.

This makes it difficult to establish which of the three types is most effective and whether all are needed.

Second, it is unknown whether all people need the same intervention or whether custom-tailored interventions should be used. Third, a problem in the research is that many of the studies did not use research designs that allow causal inference. Based upon this review, I set a research agenda to address these issues in future research on procrastination.

Procrastination and Perceptions of the Future Self: Implications for Health and Well-being Fuschia SIROIS, Department of Psychology, Bishop's University, Canada Hannah SHUCARD, Department of Psychology, Bishop's University, Canada Jameson K. HIRSCH, Department of Psychology, East Tennessee State University, USA fsirois@ubishops.ca As a temporally bound behaviour, procrastination involves a breakdown in self-regulation that has consequences not only for the present self, but also the future self. Yet evidence indicates that procrastinators are less concerned with the future than with the present, despite the considerable consequences of this short sightedness for their health and well-being. Not being able to empathetically identify with or consider the future self may explain why procrastination is associated with poor health and well-being outcomes. We examined this proposition in a community sample (N = 657) that completed an online survey. Procrastination was negatively associated with concerns and thoughts about the future self, perceived emotional and psychological closeness to the future self, and perceived tangibleness of the future self. Consistent with previous research, procrastination was also linked to lower life satisfaction and fewer health-promoting behaviours. Bootstrapping analyses of the indirect effects of procrastination on health and well-being outcomes revealed that less concern and thoughts about the future self, greater perceived emotional and psychological distance to the future self, and less tangibleness of the future self each partially mediated the links between procrastination and the health and well-being outcomes. Multiple mediator analyses revealed that less emotional closeness and fewer thoughts about the future self were the key IInd Conference on Time Perspective â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Warsaw 2014

Research on the Consideration of Future Consequences: Measurement and Applied Issues Chairperson Alejandro VÁSQUEZ ECHEVERRÍA, Faculty of Psychology, University of the Republic, avasquez@psico.edu.uy Discussant Fuschia SIROIS, Department of Psychology, Bishop's University, fsirois@ubishops.ca Symposium The concept of consideration of future consequences abstract refers to an individual difference variable that captures variability in the extent to which people consider distant versus immediate outcomes of behavior and how this consideration influences current behavior. The Consideration of Future Consequences Scale is the instrument introduced by Strathman et al. (1994) to measure that construct. In recent years, there have been several important developments in the measurement and applied implications of the CFC construct. With regard to measurement, there has been an increase in the number of international validations of the CFC Scale. The most relevant finding of these studies is that they provide initial evidence for the trans-cultural validity of a two-factor solution of the CFC scale, with Immediate-CFC and FutureCFC sub-scales. In addition, a revised 14-item scale has been introduced which more reliably assesses the FutureCFC sub-scale. The CFC has also shown applied implications across various domains of behavior. For example, lower CFC scores have been associated with Diversity of Approaches, Unity of Passion

However, the measurement innovations in the CFC Scale have an impact on how researchers study the relation between CFC and other constructs in the applied field. In this sense, the two factor solution refines the interpretation of the results as compared to the one overall score from the unified score of CFC scale. Only recently have researchers applied this approach and these initial studies have shown promise.

Furthermore, the improvement of the psychometrics indicators of the CFC-Future sub-scale provides a finer statistical ground to compare sub-scales when modeling.

In this symposium, we will present research employing the CFC Scale to further validate cross-culturally the two factor solution and how this two factor solution can explain other relevant psychosocial phenomena such as dental consultation and environmental concerns and actions.

Background: Future time perspective is often associated with positive health behaviors. While homeless youth may be more driven by immediate needs, little is known about the relationships between time perspective and health behaviors in this population. Aims: The aim of these studies was to examine the relationships between consideration of immediate/future consequences and smoking and dental attendance in this population.

Methods: We administered the CFC-14, a measure of preference for delay, questions about smoking and dental attendance, and messages about the future consequences of these behaviors to homeless youth.

Results: The Immediate and Future subscales were independent of one another. Higher scores on the Future subscale were associated with greater preferences to receive delayed, greater rewards, while higher scores on the Immediate subscale were associated with greater preferences to receive smaller, immediate rewards.

Higher scores on the Immediate subscale were associated with smoking more cigarettes per day, smoking for more years, daily smoking, and less desire/readiness to quit.

Higher scores on the Immediate subscale were also associated with going to a dentist because of a dental problem, rather than for check-ups, and more selfreported negative impacts related to dental problems.

After reading messages about the future consequences of dental attendance/avoidance, participants who do not go to the dentist but scored higher on the CFC-Future subscale developed higher intentions to go to a dentist.

Conclusions: The CFC-14 appears to operate as predicted in homeless youth, and is related to smoking and dental attendance in this population. Supported by NIH/NIDCR K23DE016952.

Future-Oriented Women will Pay to Reduce Global Warming Jeff JOIREMAN, Department of Marketing, Washington State University, USA Richie LIU, Department of Marketing, Washington State University, USA joireman@wsu.edu Background: Research has linked future time perspective and consideration of future consequences (CFC) with proenvironmental attitudes and behaviors (Milfont & Gouveia, 2006). Studies also show that CFC is a stronger predictor among those who believe their actions have a (delayed) impact on the environment (e.g., Joireman, Van Lange, & Van Vugt, 2004), supporting a CFC x concern framework. Aims: We extend this literature by testing the hypothesis that CFC interacts with sex to predict (liberal) political orientation, environmental values, belief in global warming (GW), and willingness to pay to reduce GW. Because women report higher environmental concern than men (Zelezny, Chua, & Aldrich, 2000), we expected the relationship between CFC and the model variables to be stronger among women (vs. men). Methods: Respondents in the U.S. (N = 301) completed scales assessing the model constructs, including the CFC-14 scale containing two, seven-item subscales: CFC-Future and CFC-Immediate (Joireman, Shaffer, Balliet, & Strathman, 2012). Results: Consistent with predictions, a CFC-Future x sex interaction emerged on all model variables. Follow-up spotlight analyses indicated that the relationship between CFC-Future and the model variables was always strong and significant among women, but weak (environmental values, WTP) or non-significant among men (political orientation, belief in GW). Follow-up floodlight analyses revealed that women scored higher than men on the model variables only when CFC-Future was relatively high IInd Conference on Time Perspective â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Warsaw 2014

Testing the validity of version in Spanish of the CFC-14 in general Uruguay Sample Alejandro VÁSQUEZ ECHEVERRÍA, Faculty of Psychology, University of the Republic, Portugal avasquez@psico.edu.uy Background. Recent research using both exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses have suggested that the CFC Scale is composed of two dimensions, CFC-Future and CFC-Immediate. This finding implies that psychometric properties of both sub-scales should be analyzed independently. Low reliability of the CFC-Future motivated Joireman et al. (2012) to develop two new CFCFuture items, resulting in a revised CFC-14 Scale. Aims.

The objective of this article is to explore the validity and factor structure of a Spanish version of the CFC-14 and compare it to a recently validated CFC-12 scale. Method.

We administered the CFC-14 Scale and socio-demographic data questionnaire to 168 participants from two neighborhoods of the City of Montevideo. The CFC-14 was completed at the home of the participants (random survey house selection). Mean age of participants was 43 years old. Results. Exploratory factor analyses suggest a two factor solution as the best for the model. Item 5 show low loadings and reduces the Cronbach’s alpha as does Item 2. Discussion. Our data gives new cross-cultural evidence for the distinction between CFC-Immediate and CFC-Future. Our data also show that the recently incorporated CFC-Future items improve the psychometric

Cristina ESTEVES, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, University of Coimbra, Portugal Victor ORTUÑO, University of Coimbra, Portugal Alejandro VÁSQUEZ ECHEVERRÍA, University of the Republic & University of Porto, Portugal cristina.m.esteves@gmail.com Background. The consideration of future consequences was found to be predictive of many psychological and social phenomena. For instance, CFCwas related to aggression and impulse behavior. More impulsive or aggressive people have less consideration for the consequences of their actions. Nevertheless, to date, no systematic study has been done to explore how the CFC influences transgressions of the law. Aims. The objective of this paper was to compare scores in consideration of future consequences between young and adult offenders in prison, when compared to a population not involved in problems with justice. Method. We compared a group of adolescent offenders (in probation) to a group of matched in age and SES status adolescents, and a group of adult offenders (in prison) with an adult sample of university students. Sixty Portuguese participants took part in each group. Results. Groups of adolescents (either on probation or not) were the less concerned about the future consequences of their actions and also more concerned about immediate results of their actions than adult sample. Between adolescents groups, no statistical significance was found on sub-scales scores. Adult participants in prison were more concerned with the

future consequences of their actions than their student counterparts. Discussion. Our results suggest that adolescents are more oriented towards the immediate consequences of their actions, but the absence of differences between groups of adolescents suggest that CFC is not a key factor in explaining the early initiation on illegal behaviors. Concerning the results between adults, we found that adults in prison show higher level of CFCFuture. This could be due to the effect of imprisonment and sentence, which makes offenders to expect a change in their life situation and consequently, to be more concerned about the consequences of behavior in the distant future. offending behavior, CFC-12,

range of case studies, using them to illustrate and explain the process of change in TactileCBT. Marion Shirran of Elite Clinics will focus on the application of TactileCBT within the field of weight loss. She will discuss the success of TactileCBT in this challenging field, emphasising how improved Time Perspective (particularly future-oriented thinking) is central to effective change. She will outline preliminary research evaluating the efficacy of TactileCBT and the promising findings that are emerging. The symposium will close with all three speakers outlining the future of TactileCBT. They will introduce the TactileCBT Foundation, outline its research and development strategy and describe its long term aim to secure a robust evidence base for TactileCBT and establish its place in the field of CBT-based therapies.

Time Perspective, TactileCBT, Therapy, Change, Future TactileCBT: The new Time Perspective Therapy Sarah CLARKE, The TactileCBT Foundation, UK, sclarke@tactilecbt.com There is a growing body of robust research evidence indicating that time perspective is central to good mental health. Therapies that promote and enhance balanced and positive time perspective therefore have the potential to revolutionise the field of mental health. A promising example of this new generation of therapy is TactileCBT, a brief CBT-based approach that centralises time perspective in the process of change.

This is the first of four presentations that introduces and discusses TactileCBT. It will begin with a review of the literature supporting the inclusion of time perspective theory within effective brief therapies. It will then introduce TactileCBT, describing its origins in clinical practice and outlining how the approach uses a small tactile object, the size and shape of a credit card, to facilitate a psychological and emotional journey of mental IInd Conference on Time Perspective â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Warsaw 2014

time travel. It explains how the client develops new patterns of thinking that inform judgement, problem solving, choices and actions. The presentation will highlight how TactileCBT has taken the robust but cumbersome traditional CBT-based strategies (e.g. problem solving, guided imagery, negative automatic thoughts) and refined them to produce a single, focused and effective technique. It explains how TactileCBT transforms passive clinical techniques into an active, engaging and motivational approach that is easily learnt, highly versatile and very effective. The presentation concludes by summarising the clinical applications of TactileCBT and the research evidence base that supports its efficacy.

Martin will explain how the approach was developed and refined through its application to a wide range of treatment cases, all of which contributed to the simple but effective approach that is used today. Martin draws on a number of case study examples to explain how TactileCBT is delivered and how it facilitates and influences change. These include the case of a young man who exhibited severe and debilitating anxiety and who underwent a series of TactileCBT sessions. Within the first two sessions the man organised and attended a social drink with friends (a significant and symbolic event for him), and after a handful of sessions his thinking, behaviour, mood and

Martin will also describe his work with substance abuse, with anger management, with relationships and marital problems, with eating disorders, with children (behavioural and emotional problems), and more. He will explain the central role that Time Perspective has had in the process of change for all of his clients. Martin will conclude his presentation by emphasising that the focus on changing, building and enhancing Time Perspective has led to unusually high success rates in his treatment. He will highlight the importance of this field of theory and research for the future development of psychological therapies.

Time perspective exerts a strong impact on human activity, motivation, and planning. The objective of the present study was twofold. Firstly, it was aimed to examine the relationship between time perspective and personality characteristics. Secondly, it was to verify the stability of this relation across different cultures. The participants were university students from different countries: Poland, Hong Kong, Chile (mean age 20 years) who completed the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, Ten-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI) and Positive Orientation Scale. A Ten-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI) contains following personality characteristics: Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Emotional Stability, Openness to Experiences.

Positive orientation Scale corresponds to three psychological constructs namely: self-esteem, life satisfaction. and optimism.

Many studies are trying to identify the features of a balanced time perspective and its relationships with the well-being. The present study has implemented a reverse approach: to analyse the differences in time perspective in the groups formed by the well-being scores.

The sample included 1200 subjects that represent the structure of the Lithuanian population (aged 16-89; 45% males). The well-being was evaluated using the Lithuanian Well-being Scale for Adults (LPGS-S), that measures an overall well-being score as well as its eight subcomponents (optimism, work satisfaction and others).

The scale included 59 items; the internal consistency of LPGS-S was high (>0.8). Time perspective was measured using 15 items version of Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI), the items were included according to their psychometric characteristics as Diversity of Approaches, Unity of Passion

Cronbach`s α varied from 0,55 to 0,76, apart from the present hedonistic scale (α = 0,35), presumably because of the short scale (3 items) or the meaning differences among items. The groups were formed using the 10th(very low) and 90th(very high) percentiles of the total score. Groups with a very high well-being score were characterized by high scores of future, past positive, present hedonistic and low scores of past negative and present fatalistic time perspective. Three clusters of the well-being as well as differences in time perspective within them were identified using the two-steps cluster analysis.

We hypothetisized that optimism might have a positive relation to Past Positive and Present Hedonistic and a negative relation to Past Negative and Present Fatalistic, while pessimism might act vice versa. Further we expected optimism to correlate positively and pessimism negatively with Future. Data was collected online based using the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory and the Life Orientation Test.

1570 participants filled out our survey, 91.8% being female and the most frequent age category with 35.7% being the one between 26 and 35 years. Our results show a partially incongruent picture with our hypotheses. Optimism is positively related to the TP's Present Hedonistic and Future while being negatively correlated to Past Negative and Present Fatalistic. Pessimism shows a somewhat reverse scheme, staying in a negative relation 92

Optimism does not show any relation to Past Positive and the TP Future has no significance for pessimism. A limitation to our results representthe homogenous sample (all participants were Hungarians). Hence a culturally more heterogeneous data collection should be the next step for further investigation of the present issue. Implications for meta-theory within positive psychology are presumable.

A life-span sample of adults (N = 309, 19-82 years, M = 46.18 years, 50.08% males) was recruited via Amazon’s Mechanical Turk.

Participants completed the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI; Zimbardo & Boyd, 1999), which assesses past positive, past negative, present hedonistic, present fatalistic, and future, and Mello and Worrell’s (2012) Time Attitude Scale (TAS), which assesses positive and negative evaluations of the past, present, and future. Using the ZTPI, in line with Boniwell et al., 2010, BTP was defined as having above average evaluations of past positive and future, below average evaluations of present hedonistic, and lower evaluations of past negative and present fatalistic. Using the TAS, BTP was defined as having higher positive evaluations of the past, present, and future, and lower negative evaluations of the past, present, and future.

Zimbardo Time Perspective has been mostly studied in younger samples, contrarily to Cartensen’s Future Time Perspective (FTP) that has been tested with older people. Both models have been associated, among other outcomes, with health correlates and life satisfaction.

This study aims to explore time perspective in Portuguese older people, according to both time perspective models and to test if time dimensions are predictors of health. 207 Portuguese 65+ years (Mean = 77.17, SD = 7.53) living in the community constituted the sample. Results showed that older people are higher oriented towards the future, followed by past-positive, past-negative, present-fatalistic and present-hedonistic. In what regards FTP, 33.7% of the participants are limited disengaged, 28.2% are expansive engaged, 23.8% are limited engaged, and 14.4% are expansive disengaged. Both models of time perspective have potential explanatory power of health outcomes. After adjustment, depression was predicted by FTP, Future and Past94

Anxiety was not predicted by any time dimension. When working with older people, clinicians must keep in mind that their subjective sense of time left in life, and that their focus on temporal frames (past, present and future) account for that persons beliefs, decisions and actions.

Which may also influence people’s motivation to engage in healthy and health preventive behaviors. Time perspective is one of the variables to have into account when working with older people.

Only past positive was significantly associated with anxiety (p=0.036), with centenarians not having anxiety being more focused on this time frame. Conclusions & Pratical Implications: Clinically significant anxiety was found to be quite prevalent and a deeper knowledge on the time perspective associated to its expression may provide new insights on the potential paths to help decrease such an emotional state. Knowing that past-positive is associated with not having anxiety raises interesting questions about the potential value of life review and reminiscence interventions in extreme longevity.

Elderly people with a positive view of the future may be regarded as having a positive influence on technologies attitudes because they appreciate the future with hope, projects and planning behaviors. They could be more motivated in exploring new areas of knowledge and acquiring new competencies. A negative or fatalistic time perspective view in old age, on the contrary, might be assumed to be detrimental for new technologies attitudes, because it might be related to negative past life experiences, lack of control over present life, and belief that future will be a threatening time lacking of interest. Aims and Method: Aim of the study is to evaluate the attitudes toward technologies, the influence of time perspective and preference for 96

In fact, intrinsic future goals seem to create a much better type of motivation, higher well-being and vitality than extrinsic future goals do, mainly because they satisfy the innate psychological needs, whereas extrinsic goals can sometimes frustrate the satisfaction of these same needs, or lead to an overestimation of the positive affective impact of anticipated external rewards.

TP comprises several dimensions including the meaning, orientation, and, attitude with which individuals’ think and feel about the past, the present, and the future. It is argued that each dimension is valuable in understanding individual variation in TP, and that this individual variation predicts academic achievement, risky-behavior, and selfesteem. Adolescence represents a particularly fruitful period to study TP because of the identity formation (Erikson, 1968), cognitive, (Piaget, 1955), and neurological changes (Casey et al., 2008) that occur at this age. It is argued, with age, individuals will develop more complex TPs, and that these changes will be most noticeable between late childhood and early adolescence. The Adolescent Time Inventory (ATI-English, Mello & Worrell, 2007) is described and data are presented to show that it is a useful instrument to assess TP’s multiple dimensions among individuals aged 10 to 18. Cross-cultural implications are discussed that draw from research suggesting differences in TP between cultures (Jones, 1988; Lake, 1991; Nuñez & Sweetser, 2006). Evidence is presented that shows the reliability and validity of the ATI-English 98

In particular there is disagreement regarding the degree to which the scale assesses future orientation as a unidimensional or multidimensional (immediate and future) construct. Using two large samples of high school students in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, five models, based on the extant literature were tested. The totality of results including item loadings, goodness of fit indices, and reliability estimates all supported the bifactor model, suggesting that the two hypothesized factors are better understood as ‘grouping’ factors rather than as representative of latent constructs. Accordingly the present study supports the unidimensionality of the CFCS and the scoring of all twelve items to produce a global future orientation score. Data will be presented on the relationship between a one and two-factor solution for the scale and alcohol use, smoking and BMI, and implications for the use of the scale and its value in the development of the study of time perspective will be discussed.

JIMENEZ-TORRES, Yale University School of Medicine, USA Alisha NOBLE, Southern Connecticut State University, USA Nanet M. LOPEZ-CORDOVA, Carlos Albizu University, USA lening.olivera-figueroa@yale.edu Rationale: Time Perspective (TP) is the unconscious, cognitive representation of time, where humans perceive life experiences according to their time orientations (i.e.: focus on the past, the present, or the future). To measure this construct, the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) was developed, which categorizes time perspective across five domains: Past-Negative (PN), Past-Positive (PP), Present-Fatalistic (PF), Present-Hedonistic (PH), and Future (F). Adaptations of the ZTPI have previously been made in 24 countries, including Spain, Mexico and Chile. However, to this day the ZTPI has not been adapted to the Spanish language spoken in Puerto Rico (PR). Objectives: 1) To develop a version of the ZTPI that can be culturally adapted for the Spanish language spoken in PR (ZTPI-PR). 2) To examine the content validity of the ZTPI-PR. Method: A Bilingual Committee of 15 experienced psychologists, researchers, evaluators, and healthcare professionals was assembled to review the translation made of the original ZTPI to the Spanish language spoken in PR. Results: Content Validity analyses of the responses provided by the 15 Bilingual Committee members revealed that the ZTPI-PR indeed possesses good Content Validity (0.91). Moreover, each subscale of the ZTPI also reflected adequate Content Validity (0.87 for PN; 0.86 for PP; 0.84 for PF; 0.97 for PH; and 0.95 for F). Conclusion: 100

Session 2A Using the present to predict the future and the past: Time perspectives and psychological functioning of New Zealand emerging adults Magdalena KIELPIKOWSKI, Victoria Universityof Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand, Psychology, New Zealand Paul E.

Inevitably, therefore, people behold not only their past, but also their present and future through affectively coloured lenses with varying degrees of positivity and negativity. The present study employed our new psychometric instrument the Affectively Balanced Time Perspective Scale (ABTPS), which focuses on the assessment of the affective dimensions of Time Perspectives (TPs).

The scale builds on Zimbardoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s conceptualisation and measurement of Past Positive and Past Negative (encapsulated by the subscales of the ZTPI) by creating affectively balanced sets of items representing the Present and Future TPs. Focusing on the role of the relatively under-researched Present TPs in psychological functioning, we hypothesised that: 1) the Present Positive TP would be positively related to optimism and happiness and negatively related to pessimism, anxiety and depression; whereas these relationships would be reversed for the Present Negative TP; and 2) the affective valence of the Present TPs would predict the evaluations of the Past and the Future. Finally, as the

Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the hypothesised relationships. Our hypotheses were generally supported, demonstrating a significant role of the Present TPs. We discuss the implications of the findings for research and practice.

WORRELL, University of California, Berkeley, CA, USA buhl@ibw.uni-heidelberg.de Adolescence is a salient developmental period to investigate time perspective; however, little is known about the parameters moderating this process. In this study, we sought to understand how political orientations and experiences – which also have a crucial developmental meaning during adolescence – and democratic experience are associated with time perspective. First, we examined the stability and change of time perspective profiles across a one-year period. In a second step we analyzed the correlation of time profiles with political orientations and their impact on changes in time perspective. Data came from the longitudinal study BIO. The first two waves included 535 adolescents (51% female) from a German comprehensive school.

Measures included the time attitude subscales of the Adolescent Time Inventory - German (ATI; Mello, Worrell, & Buhl, 2008) with six different dimensions (past/present/future each with positive/negative specification) and various aspects of political orientations (discussion intensity, self-concept) and democratic experiences (open-classroom-climate) adopted from the IEA CIVED studies. Using Latent Profile Analyses, five different time perspective profiles were identified, which replicates prior research (Buhl, 2014).

Specifically, the experience of an open-classroom-climate shows strong correlations with a positive evaluation of the three time periods, whereas slight correlations with discussion intensity occur. Self-concept of political competence only interrelates with evaluations of the future. Our discussion will focus on the role political experiences can have regarding the development of time perspective during adolescence and the ways in which schools might promote positive development by offering democratic experiences.

Participants were 106 Portuguese students aged 14 to 17 years (MAge = 15 years), which were distributed by the experimental group (EG), which in turn was divided into 4 subgroups, and the control group, whether they respectively participated or not in the intervention program. The assessment of the program effectiveness, through a pre vs post-test comparison, and performed with the Career Decision Making Questionnaire, showed significant differences between the groups in favor of GE. The results are discussed considering the importance and the challenges to career education practices in schools, as a relevant tool to promote more adaptive and satisfaction generating paths among adolescents.

Social exclusion manifested in increasing aggression, decreasing in empathic behaviour and altered perception of time.

Excluded youngsters are strongly concentrated on “here and now” treating future as meaningless.The scientific objective of the project was to obtain empirical data enabling the verification of selected assumptions of the motivation theory of the need to belong and concept of time . The longitudinal experimental tests in natural clinical conditions involve a group of youth at risk of social exclusion (aged between 14 and 16, n = 60; one control and two experimental groups: hedonistic “H”, eudaimonistic “E”).

Session 3A The rewriting of history in view of the change of perspectives throughout time Friedrich VON PETERSDORFF, Germany petersdorff@gmail.com It is a significant peculiarity of historiography that any historical account is bound to be rewritten at some time in the future. This is due to several reasons, such as new questions being asked or new sources becoming accessible. However, as pointed out by Danto (1962), a further reason for the rewriting of history is caused by the specific temporal structure of historical research and historiography, namely by the fact that the historians’ narrative sentences describe a past event by relating this event to events occurring at some later date, as it is, for instance, not possible to speak of 1618 as the year the Thirty Years War began, without Diversity of Approaches, Unity of Passion

Accordingly, there exists an unavoidable ongoing change of perspective when looking at past events as the perspectives of the following generations (their experiences and expectations) will be shaped not only by the events in question (e.g. 1618) but as well by future events not having yet occurred at the time of the event in question (e.g.

1648). In my paper I shall present a detailed analysis of this temporal aspect of historical research. Furthermore, I shall outline and discuss the question of how to define the notion of historical truth in view of the fact that historiography in general, and the rewriting of history in particular, is dependent upon the ongoing change of perspectives throughout the course of time.

W. VLIEK, University of Amsterdam, Psychology Department, The Netherlands a.cheshin@uva.nl Our research investigates different effects of viewing historical photos in color or in black & white. Based on the Construal Level Theory (Trope & Liberman, 2003) we argue that black & white photos are likely to be seen as more distant, both in time (i.e., older) and in terms of psychological and emotional closeness.

Consistent with this, participants in our study assigned older dates to photos that were viewed in black & white as opposed to the same photos viewed in color. This was tested both with photos originally taken in black & white, and then colored; and with photos that were in color originally, but were turned into black & white. In another study we found that color photos of orphans evoked more intense emotional reactions than did black & white photos. We also demonstrated that students who viewed color photos of orphans donated more generous sums of money to an 106

If indeed colorized photos have greater affective impact, as well as increasing perceptions of closeness (as opposed to distancing) of viewers, the effects that historical museums and history books have could be enhanced using this technology. The way people remember the past, the feelings and maybe even the lessons learned from the past might be enhanced by colorization of photos.

In order to be persuasive, the speaker should consider the opportune moment for the delivery of a rhetorical message. But the rhetorical agency goes far beyond than “seizing opportunities”: it also features the ability to shift public perceptions of preestablished situations and the capacity to create the “right moment to speak”. This paper draws on the rhetorical concept of Kairos in order to explore social movement framing of time. It compares the rhetoric(s) of two movements: the French 2006 youth protest against the First Employment Contract (CPE) and the 2011 Israeli social justice protest. The analysis uncovers two distinct time frames. The French movement demonstrates a “homochronos” time frame, in which Kairos is subordinated to the dominant time perception and mobilizes its symbolic meanings: the form and content of the rhetorical message follow the political process and transforms its scheduled stages into dramatic deadlines in order to inspire an ambiance of urgency and to frame the protest as a “duel” between the Government and the opposition. The Israeli movement represents a “heterochronos”

Session 3B Time sanctuaries: The sociology of time in gambling sites Moshe LEVY, Ariel University, Department of Sociology & Anthropology, Israel moshele@ariel.ac.il Since the end of the 19th century various sociological theories have examined the social significance of time in modern society.

Many of these theories describe rationalization processes of modern society that relies on and is dependent on the standardization of time. This standardization imposes a uniform and objective time that enables social control as well as coordination and synchronization between institutions, groups and individuals. Objective and uniform time is depicted in these theories as a human invention that underwent reification to become a social institution perceived by human beings as an external objective phenomenon that enslaves them, is imposed on them and cannot be changed. This dismal description portrays human agency as passive and lacking the ability to oppose and avoid standardized time. This paper attempts to argue that in certain social contexts people can escape the all-embracing power of time. In these sites, which I call “time sanctuaries”, individuals can engage in activities that seemingly are not subject to the coercion of time in everyday life. This paper will focus on one type of “time sanctuaries” - gambling sites. The aim of this paper is to explore why these sites ostensibly operate without measuring and publicly displaying time; how the “absence of time” affects the gamblers’ experiences while in these sites; whether these time sanctuaries are indeed immune from rationalization and time 108

Urška ŽIVKOVIČ, University of Maribor, Faculty of Arts, Department of Psychology, Slovenia Bojan MUSIL, University of Maribor, Faculty of Arts, Department of Psychology; Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies, University of Primorska zivkovic.urska@gmail.com Time perspective combines individual and sociocultural factors in individually specific cognitive frames of past, present and future.

Health and health-related concepts are our primary focus among the various aspects of human life where time perspective is often applied. In the context of empirical research we focused on the relation between time perspectives and different health-related behaviours, motivated by the findings from previous national studies of Slovenian youth (e.g., Mladina 2010 study). For the purpose of the present study we adapted and evaluated the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory and Consideration of Future Consequences Scale on Slovenian sample of youth aged between 15 and 29. Among health-related behaviours, alcohol consumption was of our special interest. It is one of the most evident public health issues in Slovenia. The results of the study correspond with previous empirical findings, confirm time perspective’s relations to health-related behaviours, provide empirical support for the inclusion of time perspective among the significant predictors of health, and consequently highlight the concept as the one that should be addressed in public health promotion and prevention programs.

Liz TEMPLE, Federation University Australia, School of Health Sciences, Australia Nicole RIDGEWAY, Australia Claire IAGOE, Australia e.temple@federation.edu.au BACKGROUND: Past studies have found that high Present Hedonism and low Future time perspectives are associated with problematic alcohol use. Little is known about such associations for the other time perspectives or how these relate to motives for drinking. AIMS & OBJECTIVES: The current study aimed to investigate these relationships to gain a clearer understanding of the associations between time perspective and problematic alcohol use. METHOD: Participants completed an anonymous online questionnaire containing the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT), the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) and the Drinking Motives Questionnaire-Revised (DMQR). RESULTS: Preliminary analyses indicate that Present Hedonism and Past Negative are positively associated with problematic alcohol use, while Present Fatalism and Past Negative are positively associated with coping and conformity motives for drinking. Future time perspective was found to moderate the effects of Present Hedonism on alcohol use, but did not moderate the effects of Past Negative on alcohol use. CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: These results suggest that it may be beneficial if strategies and interventions aimed at reducing or preventing problematic alcohol use include efforts to decrease individuals’ degree of Present Hedonism and Past Negative time perspectives and to increase their degree of Future time perspective.

First we realized analysis separately for each dimension (past, present, future). This enabled the calibration of the instrument that revealed a structure with 52 items divided into eight factors: past-negative (α=.81), pastpositive (α=.62) present-hedonistic-enjoyment (α=.61) presenthedonistic-excitement (α=.62) (r=.48), present-fatalistic, futurepunctuality (α=.58) and future-responsibility (α=.65). Secondly, a SEM with the eight factors showed that they didn´t grouped into three time frame: past, present and future, but into three dimensional attitudes in relation to time: hedonism, engagement and despair (CFI=.93, RMSEA=.083). Hedonism attitude was positively explained by present-hedonistic-enjoyment (α=.61), present-hedonistic-excitement (α=.53), and negatively by futureresponsibility (α= -.35). Engagement atitude was positively explained by future-responsibility (α=.81), future-punctuality (α=.66), past-positive (α=.33), and negatively by presenthedonistic-excitement (α= -.33). The despair attitude was positively explained by past-negative-misfortune (α=.67), pastnegative-remorse (α=.65) and present-fatalistic (α=.53). It seems that the way people cognitively experience time orientation doesn’t follow time zone continuity but exhibit other pattern.

BOHLMEIJER, Department of Psychology, Health and Technology, University of Twente, Enschede, the Netherlands Jeffrey D. WEBSTER, Department of Psychology, Langara College, Vancouver, Canada j.c.vowinckel@student.utwente.nl Introduction: A positive focus on the present, the only time zone which we experience directly and permanently, is at least as relevant as perspectives on the past and future in a balanced time perspective (BTP) and its relation to well-being. Yet, few instruments examining a positive present time perspective exist.

Two present-directed concepts, mindfulness and flow, that are intrinsically linked to mental well-being were analyzed and used to formulate a Present-Eudaimonic Scale that complements the past and future scales of the Balanced Time Perspective Scale. The present study addresses the psychometric properties of the Present-Eudaimonic Scale and the modified Balanced Time Perspective Scale. Method: 131 participants filled out the PresentEudaimonic Scale, the Balanced Time Perspective Scale, the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire – Short Form, the Swedish Flow Proneness Questionnaire and the Mental Health Continuum – Short Form.

BTP was operationalized using the Deviation from a Balanced Time Perspective coefficient. Results: The Present-Eudaimonic Scale showed good psychometric properties including internal 112

Abstracts: Oral Communications – July 30th consistency, factor structure, and convergent validity. The Present-Eudaimonic Scale explained an additional ten percent of variance in mental health beyond the other time perspective scales. BTP as measured with the modified Balanced Time Perspective Scale correlated significantly stronger with mental health than BTP measured with the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory. Conclusions: The Present-Eudaimonic Scale fills a gap in the assessment of time perspective and the modified Balanced Time Perspective Scale is a promising way to study balanced time perspective.

Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory includes five scales: positive past perspective (Past Positive), negative past perspective (Past Negative), future perspective (Future) , hedonistic present perspective (Hedonism) and fatalistic present perspective (Fatalism). Hedonism and Fatalism, however, do not exhaust all possibilities to respond to the present. The recent studies revealed another kind of present time perspective: active present perspective "carpe diem". The “carpe diem” perspective is the full concentration on the present moment, combined with the awareness of the importance, uniqueness and reality of "here and now ". Aims: The main purpose of this paper is to present the structure of Zimbardo Time Perspective, enriched with a new dimension: the "carpe diem" perspective . The relationship between the “carpe diem” perspective and positive orientation, involvement in life and extraversion , neuroticism , psychoticism and need for social approval are analyzed. Participants are 186 adults (not students) aged 17-82 years. Results: The “carpe dime” perspective creates a separate sixth factor in the structure of the Diversity of Approaches, Unity of Passion

Correlations of carpe diem, selected personality characteristics and other dimensions of time perspective, indicate the specific nature of the “carpe diem” perspective, different from nature of hedonism and fatalism. A significant relationship between the “carpe diem” and future time perspective indicates that the “carpe diem” perspective, inter alia , means the commitment to the objectives in the present, focusing on the responsibilities and tasks.

July 31st Session 4A Crossroads of time perspective research and clinical practice: Psychotherapy through the temporal lens.

Elena KAZAKINA, Licensed clinical psychologist in independent practice, USA ekazakina@comcast.net As time perspective research matures and becomes a part of mainstream psychology, applying its theory and findings in clinical practice remains a novel and challenging task. I examine the interaction of research and practice with the goal to enhance clinicians' awareness that time perspective research exists and can enrich their work. I define time perspective therapy as psychotherapy through the temporal lens that is conducted with a keen awareness of psychological concepts of past, present and future, and their interaction in the individual experience of time.

Temporal focus of clinical strategies originated in the multidimensional approach to time perspective employed in my research is integrated with psychodynamic, cognitive- behavioral and existential treatment modalities. Developmental tasks of young, middle aged and older adults are considered through the temporal lens to help them cope with psychological distress and life transitions. Clinical vignettes point out not only the reduction of symptoms but also the increase in my patients overall positive functioning (self-actualization, interpersonal effectiveness, wellbeing). Clinical discoveries informing further time perspective research are discussed. They include a notion of optimal time perspective evolved in my clinical practice; a construct of time competence (Abraham Maslow) extended to include mastery over time related phenomena such as understanding of interpersonal temporal differences. Time competence counseling combining time management and optimal time perspective may develop as a

Liz TEMPLE, Federation University Australia, School of Health Sciences, Australia e.temple@federation.edu.au BACKGROUND: The ZTPI time perspectives (TPs) explain individual differences in attitudes and values, and the behaviours that stem from these, yet they tell us little about how people actually feel about themselves. Core beliefs, on the other hand, are indicative of how a person views them self, being central to their sense of self. AIMS & OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore possible associations between core beliefs and TPs. METHOD: 240 participants (65% female; aged 18-80 years) completed an online questionnaire assessing both TPs and core beliefs. RESULTS: Preliminary analyses indicated that the core belief of security was most strongly, and negatively, associated with past negative TP (r =-.53, p<001), suggesting that a belief that “I am not safe” may be a central feature of people with a high past negative bias. In contrast, the core belief of love was most strongly, and positively, associated with past positive TP (r =.38, p<001), suggesting that people with a past positive bias tend to hold the belief “I am loved”. CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: This study’s findings indicate that core beliefs are differentially associated with the five ZTPI TPs. Understanding the associations between core beliefs and TPs may further the utility of TP theory within therapeutic settings and may shed further light on the developmental processes underlying an individual’s TP orientation.

The purpose of this research was to examine the attitudes and the self-concept of drug addicts in time perspective. We studied 148 drug addicts, carrying out the program of inpatient rehabilitation in the medical center «Behterev» (the experimental group) and 123 healthy university students (the control group) aged between 18 and 25 using the Life line method (Vasilenko T.D., 2011). The addicts noted 18% fewer events than the control group.

However, they allocated 25% more past events and interpreted them primarily as negative. The present was also estimated as less positive and characterized with emotional lability and unstable motivation for rehabilitation. The addicts marked 52% fewer future events than the control group. Moreover, the perspectives of addicts were incoherent and unrealistic. The social attitudes and self-realization were weakly represented in the events allocated by patients. The results of the study indicate the temporal disintegration of self-concept and the loss of a sense of self-continuity in drug addicts. Three contradictory self-concepts appear: «past me» (perceived as negative), «present me» (recovering) and «future me» (ideal). The interruption of selfcontinuity leads to inability to use previous experience and present opportunities for achieving the objectives and activation of stereotypical, impulsive behavior. The findings of the current study can be used to increase the effectiveness of psychotherapy for drug addiction.

If several studies have shown a link with socioeconomic status (SES), only a few investigated how and why TP is influenced by SES. This study aims to interpret the socioeconomic differences in TP from the way people find their life precarious. Method: TP was measured by a short form of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory to which we added the Future Negative dimension (Carelli & Al., 2011). SES was evaluated using a validated index of multiple deprivation (EPICES score), household income, level of education, socio-professional category and two subjective social status scales. An index of perceived unstability in life was used (5 items, α=.74). Results: 326 smokers consulting in smoking cessation centers participated in this study.

Epices score appeared significantly related to income (F(7,289)=27,4; p<0,0001), education (F(6,296)=8,6; p<0,0001), socio-professional category (F(9,289)=8,6; p<0,0001) and subjective social status scales (society: r=-0,56; p<0,0001; neighborhood: r=-0,45; p<0,0001). It was also correlated to almost all ZTPI subscales (Present Positive: r=-0,17, p<0,01 ; Present Negative: r=0,37, p<0,01 ; Present Hedonistic: NS ; Present Fatalistic: r=0,27, p<0,01 ; Future: NS ; Future Negative: r=0,19, p<0,01). Most importantly, analyses suggested complete or partial mediation in the effect of SES on TP by the perception of unstability. Conclusion: The perception of unstability experienced 118

Session 4B Perception of the threat of global warming: The effect of temporal distance as a dimension of psychological distance Nurit CARMI, Tel Hai Academic College, Environmental Sciences, Israel nuritcar@telhai.ac.il There is consensus among scientists that global warming poses a certain threat with the potential for unprecedented damage, and requires immediate attention. However, the public response and personal behavior do not reflect the severity and immediacy of a threat of these proportions. Research has shown that people perceive events as more threatening in correspondence with their immediacy, certainty, or personal implications. According to Liberman & Trope’s (2008) construal level theory, more immediate events can be seen as “closer in time,” more certain events as “closer in probability,” and events with greater potential for personal injury as “socially closer.”The purpose of the research was to examine the hypothesis of a strong positive relationship between perception of the severity of the global warming threat and all dimensions of psychological distance – temporal, social, and probability-based. The lecture will focus on the contribution of the temporal distance dimension to psychological distance, its interrelationship with the other dimensions, and its unique effect on perception of the environmental threat. The main findings were: (a) temporal distance is an important and significant dimension of psychological distance; (b) there is a strong and significant relationship between temporal distance and the other dimensions, especially probability; (c) although the bivariate analysis indicated a statistically significant (perceived) effect of

MILFONT, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand Yoshihisa KASHIMA, University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia and Members of the Collective Futures and Climate Change Project p.bain@psy.uq.edu.au The psychological role of time in explaining attitudes and actions may rest both on the “who” (individual differences in time perspective) and the “what” (the content of people’s beliefs about the past and future). The present research linked these two elements to understand people’s motivations to act on climate change across cultures. The “who” was measured using the Consideration of Future Consequences–Future subscale (CFCFuture). The “what” focused on beliefs about society if climate change was mitigated, measured using a recently-validated model (“Collective Futures”). This model measures projections about changes in society, including people’s traits and values, along with societal-level development (economic, technological) and dysfunction (e.g., crime, disease). Here we focused on the best predictor of climate change actions from collective futures research – projections about people’s warmth/morality (“benevolence”) traits. Participants completed these measures and their intentions to take political action to address climate change (“environmental citizenship”, e.g., voting, donating). Based on data collected to date (N>3000 from 19 countries), metaanalyses showed that CFC-Future and Benevolence projections independently predicted environmental citizenship. The effect

Samantha WATSON, Victoria University of Wellington, Psychology, New Zealand Taciano L. MILFONT, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand samanthajane.watson@gmail.com To address environmental problems caused or exacerbated by human behaviour, it is important to understand what motivates people to act pro-environmentally. Correlational studies have found future time perspective to be positively associated with proenvironmental engagement, but experimental studies are scarce.

Contributing to this expanding research area, we have experimentally examined whether priming future-thinking would lead to greater pro-environmental orientations. In a betweengroups design using a prospect-concept prime, participants (51 first-year psychology students; 70.6% female; Mage = 19yrs, SD = 2.6yrs) either envisioned their everyday life circumstances on a typical day at present, or four years in the future. After the manipulation, participants completed self-report measures relating to pro-environmentalism and time perspective.

Independent-samples t-tests showed that, while time perspective scores did not significantly differ between groups (all pâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s > .05), participants primed with a future-oriented mind-set reported higher environmental intentions (n = 26; M = 4.70, SD = 1.07) than Diversity of Approaches, Unity of Passion

These findings support the role of future-thinking in understanding and fostering pro-environmental engagement. By priming future-orientation, it is possible to increase an individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pro-environmental orientations. Implications of these findings for tackling environmental issues will be discussed.

Keywords: Time perspective; Environmentalism; Priming Consideration of future consequences as a predictor of environmentally responsible behavior. Evidence from a general population study Heidi BRUDERER ENZLER, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Department of Sociology, Switzerland bruderer@soz.gess.ethz.ch Many behaviors relevant to the environment involve a conflict between short-term and long-term benefits. For example, in the long run lowering thermostat settings in winter results in lower energy costs and helps protect the environment, although in the short term it leads to a loss of comfort. The present study tackles this temporal dimension by analyzing the relationship between a shortened version of the Consideration of Future Consequences scale (CFC; Strathman, Gleicher, Boninger, & Edwards, 1994) and environmentally friendly behavior in a large general population survey (n = 1945). As there is considerable debate about whether the scale captures concern with future consequences only, or with both future and immediate consequences, preliminary factor analyses were conducted. These support differentiation into two subscales: CFC-Future and CFC-Immediate. Another recent debate is centered on the question whether the impact of future orientation on behavior may be indirect. Therefore this study examines effects mediated by environmental concern (by following both the causal steps approach and bootstrapping).

However, there was only limited support for a pair of additional hypotheses that suggested that CFC-Immediate may be more closely related to curtailment behavior whereas CFC-Future would be related efficiencyenhancing behavior.

Session 4C To know thy (future) self: How interacting with one’s older self reduces delinquency Jean-Louis VAN GELDER, Netherlands Institute for the Study of Crime and Law Enforcement, The Netherlands Hal HERSHFIELD, New York University, USA Loren NORDGREN, Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University, USA jlvangelder@nscr.nl The idea that delinquents tend to live in the here and now and fail to consider the longer-term consequences of their actions is a popular stereotype that is also empirically grounded. We argue that this failure may result from a limited ability to imagine one’s self in the future, which leads people to opt for immediate gratification. Increasing the vividness of the future self is therefore expected to motivate individuals to act in a more future-oriented way and hence to reduce delinquent involvement. We tested this hypothesis in two studies. In Study 1, to increase vividness, respondents wrote a letter to their 20-year older self.

Subsequently, they were presented a series of vignettes describing delinquent choice dilemmas. These respondents were significantly less likely to make delinquent choices compared to respondents in the control condition who had written a letter to their present self.

In Study 2, respondents either interacted with age-progressed renderings of their future self or with their current, i.e., not age-

Those who had interacted with their future self were significantly less likely than control participants to cheat on a subsequent task.

It is, finally, argued that because analogous problem behaviors, such as gambling, speeding, smoking, and excessive drinking, are—like delinquency—characterized by immediate benefits and long-term costs, increasing the vividness of the future self may also prove effective for countering these other types of selfdefeating behaviors.

Keywords: future self, vividness, delinquency PPC as a factor in protecting youth from risky behavior Grazyna KATRA, University of Warsaw, Faculty of Psychology, Poland katra@psych.uw.edu.pl Risky behaviors are associated with obtaining a negative effect, in the form of loss of health or life, material loss, harm or injury to others. Adolescence is the time of escalation of risky behaviors, named the developmental risk for two reasons. On one hand, they are important features of development; on the other they carry risks to physical and mental development. It seems that it is difficult to eliminate them, but they can be steered towards a socially approved behavior, where they would provide a strong stimulation, but objectively carry less risk to the health and life of a person. Those are positive risky behaviors. One should therefore seek to protect individuals from taking risky behaviors or induce young people toward positive ones. In my research I have proven the theory that such functions can be used as a forward-looking prospect of temporary. The results of the previous research support this statement in most. The issue of psychological mechanisms of this phenomenon is remained to be resolved. It is possible, that PPC developed protection against risky behavior, as it is associated with one’s tendency to consider the consequences of their own actions. Another possible explanation assumes that PPC is associated with having lifelong goals, which may be impeded or nullified by the effects of risky behaviors. Achieving long-term objectives absorbs adolescents so deeply that they do 124

However, not all of us do so to the same extent. Common wisdom, and some research, suggests that risk preference is a stable personality trait: some individuals consistently tend to undertake risky actions across a variety of situations, while others avoid them. Risk-taking has been linked to other stable personality traits, such as impulsivity and extraversion We propose that time perspective (Zimbardo & Boyd, 1999) is an individual characteristic that affects risk-taking preference.

Specifically, we hypothesized that a habitual focus on the hedonic aspects of the present would lead people to take more risks in a variety of domains, and that this focus would be a more significant predictor than personality traits. We conducted a study in which 514 participants, aged 16 to 48, recruited online though a variety of social media sites, filled out a number of scales, including the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (Wiberg et al. 2012), the DOSPERT (Blais & Weber, 2006), and the Ten-Item Personality Inventory (Gosling, Rentfrow & Swann, 2003). Using regression analyses, we observed that time perspective in general explained more variance in risk-taking preference than did personality traits.

Session 5A Measuring Time Perspective in Work Settings: Japanese Data Analysis Kiyoshi TAKAHASHI, Kobe University, School of Business Administration, Japan Kotoe KONISHI, Kobe University, School of Business Administration ktakahas@kobe-u.ac.jp Referring to the seminal study made by Zimbardo and Boyd (1999), this study constructed the scales for measuring individual time perspective in work settings. The Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) categorized the cognitive framework for time into five domains: Past-Negative, Present-Hedonistic, Future, PastPositive, and Present-Fatalistic. These five categories seemed to be universal because similar dimensional structures were found by a number of studies that analyzed data collected from wide nations by diverse languages. Prior studies focused on the measurement of time perspective in general. While, scant research has made for understanding the cognitive framework of time that is specific to work life and career. This study aimed to expand the scope of time perspective from daily life to work life.

To this end, the present study piled 56 questions that dealt with five universal time domains and modified them to be applicable to job settings. Data were collected from 524 Japanese employees.

Factor analytic result found that ZTPI’s five factor model was reproduced in work life among Japanese employees. Similar to the universal ZTPI, items were successfully categorized into five meaningful domains of work time cognitions. Implication and limitation for the scale of work time perspective will be discussed.

In addition, this study will discuss how to practice employee time cognition to manage work behavior and career in organizations.

This theory presents a novel approach about time perception, time mental accounting and also time constraint effect which all influence our behaviors. One of prominent areas where the impact of time is quit important is project management. Time as one of important factors in project management triangle has an influence on other sources. Hence adopting an efficient approach in time forecasting phase and execution part is quite important.

We could treat time materialistically like money. If we have certain amount of time for project and be confident about that, then we would consume it differently in comparison to when we are given even the same amount of time but in different parts and under uncertain condition. Moreover our valuation of the time is altered when we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all amount of time in advance. The first attitude is investment approach while the latter is like to buy the time from the employer. On the other hand this theory brings time mental accounting which develops late student syndrome and mental accounting process. It influences on time forecasting and task execution. Critical chain project management, critical path method and PERT are techniques which conduct time mental processing in other ways. Investor or buyer approach will influence our time accounting and changes the time buffers. The third factor which makes the tasks progress better is time constraint which leads our project to be dynamic and also finishes sooner.

The management situation in project is characterized by a collective action, in a specified time, leading to a result submitted to an external judgement. Aim: explore alls types of time in project management situations, and their effect on project actors' management maturity. Data base gathers 20000 management situations (Leroy 2006). We will select 22 of them, characterized by: emergency degree, stake, unpredictability, mastery and learning and by : the phase of the project path in which they appear (emergence, feasibility, conception, implementation, completion). Results: project actors reveal a built-time to be distinguished from an undergone time.

New question : 1. In project groups dealing whith management situations, "temporal dilation" pehnomena exist. Hypotheses: Management situations are: a. In "projective time" (phases of emergence, feasibility, conception) foreseeable, less urgent and better mastered. b. In "reactive time" (phase of implementation, unforseeable, urgent and less mastered. c. In "retrospective time" (phase of completion) foreseeable, less urgent and mastered. 2.

In project groups, the considered state of the situation increases with the irreversibility degree of the project. 3. Which sort of time, previously characterized, boosts individual learning? Discussion: we will refine these global results by examining the specific nature of the 22 management situations? Conclusion : the project environment contributes to the growth of management maturity, which could be characterized by an ability to simultaneously manage the 3 types of time, b) an ability to deal with changes linked to the types of time, in the part of the project.

Abstracts: Oral Communications – July 31st mechanism at the basis of time perception. According to the prominent time-processing model, the internal clock has three components: a pacemaker-like system that emits pulses, which transit through an attention-controlled switch and are accumulated in a counter. The accumulated units in the counter determine the interval duration. In our experimental study, participants have to solve a computerized maze by moving a small character with keyboard keys. Concurrently, they have to produce intervals of 30, 60 or 90 seconds by pressing a specific key of the keyboard. Furthermore, they experience each interval in two conditions: with or without time pressure. Time pressure consists in a computer-controlled character solving the maze and trying to “eat” the player. Results presentation will focus on time production’s accuracy and variability depending on whether participants were under time pressure condition or not. We consider that under time pressure condition, temporal production will be longer than under no time pressure condition, thus reflecting an overestimation of their time judgments. We also suppose that time judgment’s variability could be an expression of using different strategies depending on time pressure condition.

Results will provide a better understanding of time pressure effects on time perception.

Subjective time dilation is the tendency to experience time as passing more slowly than expected and we show, by analyzing three studiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; published data within a Bayesian framework, how time can slow down as a result of uncertainty around judgments of objective duration. Psychological time dilation is concluded to arise from a Bayesian-style regression of time judgments due to poor processing of temporal information. This explanatory and computational model spans neurological, information processing, cognitive and mood-related effects on time perception, while also breaking new ground in bringing physical principles of gravitational time dilation to bear upon psychological time experience. These findings will be discussed in terms of the relationship between time perception and time perspective, specifically in relation to notions of past and future as experienced during episodes of clinical depression.

Participants (63 first-year psychology students; 78% female; Mage = 18.8 yrs, SD = 1.9 yrs) completed self-report measures relating to fluid intelligence, time perspective and chronotype, and a temporal judgement task. In this task participants had to judge which of two event components (e.g., get new batteries and set right time on alarm clock) occurs earlier or later within a given event sequence (e.g., changing the batteries in an alarm clock).

Both behavioural measures (reaction time, error rates) and psychophysiological measures (pupillary response as indicative of how hard the cognitive system works) were gathered. Results show that present-orientation was generally associated with a faster and more efficient processing of scripts, and that the correlation between eveningness and pupil dilation remained even after controlling for fluid intelligence. Implications for an overarching theory of psychological time will be elaborated, and the effects of expectancy formation and motoric response on the findings will be discussed.

We studied this in American and Dutch samples by inducing high or low LoC and subsequently providing them with ambiguous time questions.

Importantly, these samples differ in the way they prefer to conceptualize time. An ego-moving representation, whereby the self moves along a stationary timeline, appears dominant in America whereas a time-moving representation, whereby a moving timeline passes a stationary observer, appears dominant in Dutch. Results showed that, as expected, in the American sample, inducing high LoC triggered an ego-moving representation where movement is assigned to the self and inducing low LoC triggered a time-moving representation where movement is assigned to the external factor, namely time. The Dutch sample showed the opposite pattern: inducing feelings of high LoC led to a time-moving representation rather than an ego-moving representation. These findings thus show that experiential factors like LoC are implicated in time representation but that linguistic convention can play a role in shaping how they are linked.

In particular, the latter were significantly more elaborated, the share of self-realization goals, contact goals, transcendent goals, goals of change and goals of a useful activity was also bigger among longterm goals. Older participants set more elaborated goals, more often they were related to change and to self-development. The goals of change were also more typical of older participant and males. These results confirm that we set goals always in a temporary frame that influences to a substantial degree their parameters and motivational basis.

We propose that reflecting upon past important goal steps or goal stocktaking may be one strategy that can enhance well-being during goal pursuit as well as increase positive expectations for the future. In this paper we introduce the novel concept of goal stocktaking as a journeyfocused goal strategy that can address the threats to well-being during goal pursuit by promoting a focus on the goal journey rather than just the destination. Goal stocktaking involves taking an inventory of past positive events and choices that contributed to the current state of goal progress. We propose that goal stocktaking can foster self-efficacy, meaning-making, and motivation. Evidence from a community sample of people (N = 152; 75 percent female; Mean age = 32.7, SD = 16.9) engaged in making health behavior changes demonstrates the potential benefits of goal stocktaking for promoting positive future expectations. Goal stocktaking was associated with higher life satisfaction, less stress, and more hopefulness for future goal success.

Moreover, it was revealed that the future time perspective favors persistence in action, but mainly for individuals with high temperamental Endurance (= high stimulation processing capabilities). The results are discussed in the context of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Theory, the Strelau Regulative Theory of Temperament and the past research in persistence in action.

Abstracts: Oral Communications – August 1st Personality traits, future time perspective, and adaptation to school life in adolescence Renato CARVALHO, Center for Research in Psychology, University of Lisbon, Portugal Rosa NOVO, Center for Research in Psychology, University of Lisbon, Portugal renatoggc@gmail.com Several studies provide evidence of the importance of future time perspective (FTP) for adolescent adaptation. However, little research addresses the relationship between FTP and personality and psychopathology, particularly if FTP can mediate their influence on behaviour. It is within this framework that we analyse the mediating role FTP has in the influence of personality traits on the way adolescents live their life at school. Participants were 351 students (ages 14-18 years) and instruments were the Portuguese version of the MMPI-A, particularly the Personality and Psychopathology Five dimensions (Aggressiveness, Psychoticism, Disconstraint, Neuroticism, Introversion); a questionnaire addressing student’s FTP; and a survey on school life involving several indicators of achievement, social integration, and overall satisfaction. Results show several significant mediation effects of FTP on most relationships between PSY-5 dimensions and school life, and are discussed considering the importance of future orientation and planning in the promotion of individual well-being and in the moderation of the impact of personality characteristics in students’ behaviour at school.

Personality factors and future self-rated health in the context of chronic illness Fuschia SIROIS, Bishop's University, Psychology, Canada fsirois@ubishops.ca Although research indicates that personality contours self-rated health (SRH), there has been less attention on understanding the contributions of personality to the temporal framing of SRH and the contextual factors that play a role in shaping these effects, despite the potential implications of future self-rated health (FSRH) for understanding health practices and outcomes. The aim of the present study was to extend theory and research by exploring the contributions of personality traits, current SRH, and physical symptoms to FSRH in the context of chronic illness, and to test the potential mediating role of optimism for explaining these effects.

In two chronic illness samples (arthritis, N = 365, and inflammatory bowel disease, N = 290) a hierarchical regression model with age, education, current SRH, and fatigue entered in the first two steps, and traits entered last, tested the effects of personality on FSRH. Mediation analyses controlling for contextual variables tested the explanatory role of optimism. Fatigue was a significant contributor to FSRH accounting for 11 % of the variance in the arthritis sample and 17 % in the IBD sample over the other contextual variables.

Both Agreeableness and Neuroticism accounted for additional and significant variance in FSRH, with Agreeableness associated with higher FSRH whereas Neuroticism was associated with lower FSRH. For both traits, optimism fully explained the associations with FSRH. The findings indicated that those who score high on Agreeableness and low on Neuroticism have higher FSRH even while living with a chronic illness, perhaps due to an optimistic bias.

JIMENEZ-TORRES, Yale University School of Medicine, USA Alisha NOBLE, Southern Connecticut State University, USA Alexis RODRIGUEZ, Yale University, USA Raysa BONILLA-FLORENTINO, Southern Connecticut State University, USA Nanet M. LOPEZ-CORDOVA, Carlos Albizu University, USA lening.olivera-figueroa@yale.edu Rationale: Acculturative stress is the type of stress that occurs when an individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adaptive resources result insufficient to assertively adjust to a novel cultural environment, rending them vulnerable to develop physical and mental illness. One psychological construct previously shown to influence stress, physical and mental health is Time Perspective. Time Perspective refers to the cognitive processes whereby humans assign experiences according to five temporal tendencies: Past-Negative, Past-Positive, Present-Fatalistic, Present-Hedonistic, and Future.

However, the relationship between Time Perspective tendencies and acculturative stress has never been studied before. Objective: For this project we aim to study the predictability of Time Perspective tendencies on the acculturative stress of treatmentseeking and healthy Puerto Ricans immigrants living in the United States, in comparison to both treatment-seeking and healthy Puerto Ricans who live at the island of Puerto Rico. Method: Questionnaires that assess Time Perspective and acculturative stress will be administered to treatment-seeking and healthy Puerto Ricans immigrants living in the Unites States, as well as to treatment-seeking and healthy Puerto Ricans who live at the island of Puerto Rico. These questionnaires include the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, the Scale for Acculturative Stress, and the Hispanic Stress Inventory. Working hypotheses and expected results: I.

The systematic review was informed by the Cochrane Collaboration guidelines. Studies related to time perception deficits and impulsivity disorders were retrieved from multiple literature databases in EBSCOhost, including PsycInfo, Academic Search Complete, MEDLINE with Full Text, PsycArticles, PsycBOOKS, Education Source, SocINDEX with Full Text, SPORTDiscus with Full Text, through rigorous inclusion and exclusion criteria. Of 49 documents, 16 were extracted for further analysis and a final 12 studies were deemed eligible for inclusion. Additional 21 studies resulting from the analyses of the references of the previous documents were supplementary included. Data were extracted from each study regarding methodological aspects (experimental/control sample – n, type, inclusion and exclusion criteria) and main conclusions, taken together the existing data suggest that there are changes in time 140

LUPIEN, Université de Montréal, Canada lening.olivera-figueroa@yale.edu The stress hormone cortisol has helped humans survive and stand the test of time. Evolutionary pressures that have shaped stress physiology may have also modulated our ability to contextualize events. In accordance, Time Perspective (TP) refers to the cognitive processes whereby humans assign experiences according to five temporal tendencies: Past-Negative, Past-Positive, PresentFatalistic, Present-Hedonistic, and Future. In this study, we explored the associations of each TP on stress reactive cortisol in response to a psychosocial stress paradigm. Thirty-one healthy men and thirty healthy women (mean age + SEM: 22.8 + 3.9 years) participated. Eight salivary cortisol samples were collected within the frame of exposure to the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST) and then transformed into three phases: (1) anticipation, (2) reactivity, and (3) recovery. Multiple regressions were executed with TP entered as predictors. During anticipation to the TSST women with increased Future TP secreted higher cortisol concentrations (p = 0.03). In contrast, lower cortisol concentrations were manifested during anticipation across men with increased Present-Hedonistic TP (p = 0.002) and Past-Positive TP (p = 0.056).

One issue that is recently receiving more attention in the psychology of time relates to how the different processes involving time and time perception act together. For instance, one related question is how the perception of brief durations influences other longer-term temporal processes like temporal discounting, delay of gratification or delay aversion. In fact, impulsiveness has been recurrently associated with distortions in 142

However, there is no empirical evidence to support how these different mechanisms act together in humans. Aims. The objective of this paper is to analyze the relations between time perception variables and a delay aversion variable in a group of impulsive children and in a group of typically developing children. Method.

Thirty-eight children aged 7-10 participated in the experimental session. They completed two tapping tasks, one time reproduction task, one temporal discrimination task and one delay aversion task.

Results. Partial correlations controlling for age in month were performed. Concerning accuracy, correlations between tasks are weak to moderate and statistically significant. Delay aversion is highly correlated to the tapping and reproduction tasks with smaller time stimuli. Concerning intra-individual variability between task, correlations range from very-weak to moderate and statistically significant. Discussion. Results show that the intertemporal processes, such as the ability to wait for a bigger reward are differentially correlated with time perception measures. This may suggest that not all timing abilities underlie long-term temporal processes such as delay aversion.

We analyzed 2 samples from Cheboksary, region with high suicide rates, of medical (n=195) and non-medical (law and engineering) students (n=126); Moscow social sciences students (n=156) and engineering students (n=283), who successfully passed the test for reserve-officer training department; Odessa economics students (n=151) and people after recent suicidal attempt (n=188). Comparative analysis (Mann-Whitney U-Test) showed that the highest rates of negative time-perspective and fears of death were characteristic for suicidal patients, but medical students from Cheboksary, though being high on Future and Past Positive, were the lowest (after suicidals) in Hardiness. The most benign results showed Moscow engineering students. In correlation analysis within the samples we observed 2 somewhat overlapping coping strategies with death attitudes – through fears and avoidance and through death acceptance. Suppression of escape acceptance of death and fear of being forgotten was a purely Moscow engineers’ defense, to some instance –Cheboksary meds’ and also an overt expression of low well-being in suicidal patients. Odessa economists and Cheboksary non-medical students relied mostly on fears. Moscow social sciences students were in the middle. It is viable that positive time-perspective may substitute hardiness, keeping people, who deal with death threats on daily basis, afloat. Further research in medical students from different regions is needed to test this hypothesis.

Abstracts: Oral Communications – August 1st future expectations play a major role in decisions and behaviors in the present moment. The subjective time left in life also seems to have implications in several domains. In old people, when subjective time left in life normally becomes shorter and focusing on future, present or past may have different implications than for younger people.

Aims: Explore the association between Future Time Perspective and Zimbardo’s Time Perspective in older people. Outcomes & Results: 207 Portuguese 65+ years living in the community completed the ZTPI and the FTPS. The adjusted correlation model (controlling for sex, age and number of diagnosis) showed that Present-hedonistic and Future were positively correlated with FTP (R=.222, p=.002; R=.147, p=.043, respectively), and Presentfatalistic negatively correlated (R=-.211, p=.003). Conclusions & Pratical Implications: People more oriented to Future and Presente-hedonistic seems to have a more open-ended FTP. As people oriented to Future are concerned about future consequences and rewards of their present behavior it is expected that they might have a longer future. Present-hedonistic in old people may not have the some meaning as for young people, probably configuring an adaptive mechanism in face of perceived time left in life and wisdom valuation of pleasant things that worth living in opposition to imprudent attitude of younger people that could endanger the future.

Abstracts: Oral Communications – August 1st influence his/her decisions at the present and whether he/she could foresee his/her future for better perspectives. Every decision taken at present influences the future experiences. Hence every individual needs to have time conscious. As time factors namely past, present and future has no meaning by itself, the worthwhile experiences decide the performance and development of an individual. It is the greater responsibility of the teachers to mould the young minds and tune them to have time consciousness from the school age. The paper reports the study on the “time perspectives and achievement among the teacher trainees”. The sample for the study is 100 pre-service graduate teacher trainees from 4 different teacher training colleges in Chennai, India. A modified version of “ Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory” with 40 items constitute the tool for the study. The score attained through the inventory and the first semester marks are considered for data manipulation. It is found that in general the pres – service teacher trainees are conscious of time perspectives. Also trainees who have consciousness on time perspectives have achieved better in their academic performance.

Abstracts: Oral Communications – August 1st Research in face-to-face learning contexts shows that students’ Time Perspective (TP) is a cultural trait positively related to learning performance. In particular, results show that students with a high future TP show higher motivation for study, selfregulation and academic performance. Besides, present oriented students tend to engage in instant-reward activities such as videogames. The use of games for educational purposes, known as Game-based Learning (GBL), could be an adequate methodology for present oriented students to engage in learning activities. Upto-date, little studies have focused on and the relation between students’ TP and online GBL. We aim to study the factorial validity of the FTP subscale of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) among adult Spanish students engaged in an online course with a GBL activity, and its relation with performance. A sample of 67 students engaged in a quasi-experimental study using a classification game, MetaVals. Performance in the game and semester are studied in relation to their FTP. Results show differences in 7 items of the FTP subscale, related both to the Spanish cultural context and to the online learners’ profile. Semistructured interviews were conducted to better understand these differences among items. Furthermore, although FTP students show a higher course performance, these profiles do not show higher performance in the GBL activity; it could be related to the fact that games leverage performance of different students. This study might be useful for designers and teachers to better adapt learning activities in online contexts to learners’ needs, according to their TP.

Abstracts: Oral Communications â&#x20AC;&#x201C; August 1st One of the aspects of the nuisance isolation penalty is its time dimension. The time assumes the labeled and counted dimension for the convicted. An excess of the fre e time makes it necessary to fill it, which causes actions subjectively accelerating its expiration. These actions can be either adaptive and disadaptive. The matter in how the convicted can deal with temporal aspect of the isolation penalty is related to their time perspective. For rehabilitation after the penalty, the balanced temporal perspective seems to be the most advantageous. Focusing on the present with a clear projection of self into the future fosters creating realistic plans and taking actions to address them already during the period of penalty.

Escape from the past makes it difficult to maintain a sense of continuity, and cut off from what happened before putting in prison does not facilitate the excitation of a healthy sense of guilt and willingness to make reparations, is therefore detrimental to post-penitentiary readaptation. The focus of this research was to determine the time perspective profiles of the prison inmates. The Polish version of Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) was administered to the group of 60 male prisoners (age 21-55; mean age 30,29; SD=9,31) and obtained data were compared to the control group. The differences in five temporal orientations as measured by ZTPI are discuss. The methodological problems which emerged during administration ZTPI to the group of prison inmates are pointed out and the usefulness of the ZTPI assessment in the penitentiary diagnosis are displayed.

Massimo AGNOLETTI, Centro Benessere Psicologico, Italy info@massimoagnoletti.it This project is intended to explore if there is consistency between Flow theory and Time Perspective Approach. In the theoretical construct of Time Perspective Approach optimal or ideal wellbeing condition is identified by a specific configuration of ZTPI (Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory) dimensions that include low values of "Present Fatalistic" and medium/high values of "Present Hedonism" and "Future". Optimal Experience (called also as Flow) is a eudaimonic factor that consists not just of a “present” component but also of a “future” dimension because it requires planning in order to replicate next Flow experience. In this perspective it should be a consistency between some time dimensions described by the ZTPI test and Flow frequency. In particular hypothesis should test if there is a correlation between ZTPI dimensions (negative in the case of the "Present Fatalistic" and positive toward "Present Hedonism" and "Future") and Optimal Experience frequency.

Several studies have shown that anxiety is commonly associated with negative ruminative thoughts with a temporal component consisting of worry and uncertainties about the future. This study aimed to further investigate the psychological mechanisms involved in this relationship. The specific hypothesis was that the temporal bias towards the future is associated with ruminative thoughts (worry) and that this in turn reflects dysfunction in aspects of cognitive control. The current study included a non-clinical sample of 65 participants (44 females) between the ages of 19 to 40 years old (Mage = 25.90, SD = 4.48). Participants completed inventories of time perspective (Swedish Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory: S-ZTPI), worry (Penn State Worry Questionnaire), anxiety (Beck Anxiety Inventory) and one task measuring inhibition (stroop). A linear regression model with anxiety symptoms as outcome variable and the subscales of S-ZTPI as predictors showed that the Future Negative subscale best predicted anxiety. Furthermore, a linear regression model with Future Negative as outcome variable and stroop performance, worry and anxiety symptoms as predictors, revealed worry as the only significant predictor of Future Negative. In conclusion, our results partly supported our hypothesis. The relationship between Future Negative and anxiety seems to be mediated by worry in non-clinical cases. Future research should investigate this relationship in clinical samples.

Yuta CHISHIMA, University of Tsukuba, Japan Tatsuya MURAKAMI, University of Tsukuba, Japan Takuma NISHIMURA, University of Tsukuba, Japan chishima@human.tsukuba.ac.jp The purpose of this study was to develop a Japanese version of the Adolescent Time Attitude Scale (ATAS-J). The ATAS was originally developed by Worrel, Mello, & Buhl (2011) and consists of six subscales assessing Past Positive, Past Negative, Present Positive, Present Negative, Future Positive, and Future Negative time attitudes. Moreover, this scale has been translated into German, Italian, and Spanish, and administered to various demographic groups (Andretta et al, 2013). In this study, the ATAS was translated into Japanese (ATAS-J), and its reliability was confirmed with a sample of 192 Japanese college students (mean age = 21.04, SD = 0.93). Internal consistency estimates of the ATAS-J ranged from .88 to .92. However, confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the six-factor structure for the original 30 items showed inadequate fit indices. For structural validity, 2 items with high factor loadings were omitted from each subscale. A comparison of the two-factor (valence), three-factor (time periods), six-factor (30 items), and six-factor (18 items) models indicated that a six-factor structure with 18 items yielded the best fit (χ2 = 232.00, df = 120.00, NNFI = .944, CFI = .956, SRMR = .055, RMSEA = .070). A comparison of the results with those of Worrel et al. (2011) showed that Japanese participants tend to perceive all the time periods more negatively as compared to U.S. and German. Thus, to identify whether these results were due to the participants’ age or cultural background, further studies are needed.

Over the last decade, trait psychology began to use cluster analysis to identify personality types, described as a specific organization of traits within the individual. This person-oriented approach is also used in temporal psychology (Boniwell, Osin, Linley & Ivanchenko, 2010).

This study applies two-step cluster analysis (Ward’s method followed by k-means analysis) with double cross-validation procedure, as proposed by Asendorpf et al. (2001), to identify the number of temporal types from studies using Polish adaptation of Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory. Sample consisted of 1326 participants (57,2% women, 41,3% men, 1,6% did not indicate their gender) aged 16-79 (M=33,01, SD=12,36). During the analysis, solutions of 2 to 5 clusters were examined with Kappa Coefficient as a measure of inter-rater agreement. Results of the study are discussed in the presentation.

Abstracts: Posters – July 30th to foresee PTSD, we assumed that they may also help to predict PTG and that in fact the positive relation between PTSD and PTG exists because of common substructure: exposure to trauma and taken time perspective.

The research was done on a group of 280 MVA survivors who were assessed during a two-year period after the trauma with a number of inventories: short version of PTSD questionnaire designed by Zawadzki, Strelau, Sobolewski and Oniszczenko, Posttraumatic Growth Inventory developed by Tedeschi and Calhoun, Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory created by Zimbardo. The measure of trauma exposure was a sum of different questions included in a demographic questionnaire which referred to life and health threat, peritraumatic emotions, dissociation and loss.

Results of regression analysis suggest that only one type of time perspective - Present Fatalistic - is a predictor of both PTSD symptoms severity and PTG. Path analysis proves that Present Fatalistic perspective partially mediates the relation between trauma exposure, PTSD and PTG respectively. The correlation between PTSD and PTG is a result of a common background. Both variables may be predicted by trauma exposure and a higher level of fatalistic view on current life situation.

Abstracts: Posters – July 31st scales of Zaleski were modified: KCEL (1991) measuring life goals’ characteristics and Scale of Attitudes Toward Future (1987), measuring future anxiety. Reliability measuring conducted among 394 high school students in Poland showed sufficient psychometric goodness. Empirical research was conducted among 413 other high school students in Poland. Canonical analysis showed that daydreaming and life goals’ characteristics are connected in two independent ways, which is possible to interpret as: realistic daydreaming and escape daydreaming. Realistic daydreaming is correlated with good attentional control of daydreaming, positive-constructive daydreaming, goal clarification, perceived goal’s importance, low conflict between goals, long span of goals and high motivation to realization. Escape daydreaming are correlated with poor attentional control, contents linked to social approval need and goal’s conflict parallel with their perceived importance. The most interesting discovery of thesis is independence of these two daydreaming patterns.

The study also distinguished four clusters differing in characteristics of life goal and daydreaming. These clusters also differ in future anxiety, life satisfaction and achievement motivation. In clusters distinguished and described realistic daydreaming and escape daydreaming are distributed in quadripolar value distribution (low-low, high-low, low-high, highhigh).

Despite the importance of childhood, recognized by many, most research still focuses on studies with adolescents and adults, which has led many authors to warn of the need to develop studies in this age group. We are developing a longitudinal study with middle school children (2nd, 4th and 6th grades) whose main purpose is to clarify the relationship between these variables and more specifically: get a deeper knowledge of vocational aspirations of middle school children; understanding the importance of background aspects such as gender, socioeconomic status and prestige to the formation of vocational aspirations and early elimination of professionals aims; draw implications for the implementation of educational practices directed to parents and teachers as key agents in the construction of the career aspirations of children.

However, it is also important for understanding their behavior to investigate their past and the connection of the past, present and future. This study examined how do students with high fulfillment in the present differ from students with low fulfillment in the ways in which they connect past, present and future.

Abstracts: Posters – July 31st were asked to take part in a workshop where making “Cognitive Map of Time Perspective” (Sonoda, 2011) and to participate interviews based on the map. Participants were also asked to answer a questionnaire that was composed of the scales which measured one’s view on the past, goal consciousness and emptiness. Participants assigned two groups based on emptiness score and the response to a question about a sense of fulfillment in their life in the interviews (High fulfillment students, N = 20 ; Low fulfillment students, N = 9). In the result of interviews, both groups had consciousness to the change of environment between past and present, present and future. High fulfillment students connected their past and present positively and meaningfully. In contrast, Low fulfillment students connected their past as reason that they have changed negatively. Additionally, High fulfillment students connected the present and future more positive than Low fulfillment students. The qualitative data offered rich insight into how undergraduates connect the past, present and future in their life.

According to the Japan Student Services Organization, there were about 135,519 international students in Japan. And about 60% international students came from China (JSSO, 2013). The present study set out to examine whether time perspective and self-identity is effect to cross-cultural adjustment. Participants were 217 Chinese international students of Japanese language school in Tokyo. They completed a questionnaire containing Time Perspective Scale (TPS; Tsuzuki, 1996), Identity Status Scale (ISS; Kato, 1983), CrossCultural Adjustment Scale (CAS; Liang, 2011), residence time in 156

Compared short residence international students with long residence international students, longer residence students show lower scores of crossculture adjustment. Besides, Analysis of two-way ANOVA identified that: (1) high level of time perspective scores students showed good cross-culture adjustment, (2) high level of identity scores students showed good cross-culture adjustment, (3) language level could not find any significant effect at cross-culture adjustment. This study suggested that time perspective and identity as individual factors could affect cross-cultural adjustment, and in the future longitudinal study about international students’ time perspective change, identity formation and cross-cultural adjustment are suggested.

Existing theories on avoiding risk behaviors among adolescents tend to focus on elements such as time perspective which refers to goals setting and personal projects (Ziółkowska, 2005, Zaleski 1995). Evidence seems to suggest that human existence is enhanced when individuals are engaged in a sustainable pursuit of core projects. Personal projects can illuminate and enhance human existence, from a psychological well being to physical health (Little, 2007). In this paper, the results of a personal study are discussed. A review of the recent literature pertaining to the correlates of adolescent risk-taking, positive temporal perspective and Personal Projects, organized the findings into a multisystemic perspective is taken.

On the other hand, views on deafness as a culture have recently emerged and consider deafness as a personal trait, not as disability (Lane, 1997). Hearing impairment is the factor influencing individual experience and development (Marschark, 2002). However, as it influences the cognitive as well as socio-emotional development, it might also impact the time perspective. Presented study was aimed to find out (1) the influence of hearing impairment on the time perspective in young adults; as well as (2) the relationship between the time perspective and self-esteem, self-efficacy and attitudes towards money. Subjects, young adults aged between 20 and 23, were divided into experimental and control groups (10 males and 10 females each). The experimental group consisted of 20 deaf and hard-hearing university students. The control group consisted of hearing students paired with the experimental group by age and gender. Subjects were tested individually by filling out the written form of Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory – ZTPI; Transcendental-Future Time Perspective Inventory – TFTPS; Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale – RSES; Gąsiorowska Money Attitude Questionnaire. The results showed that hearing impairment influence the time perspective. Deaf students are more presentoriented in comparison to hearing. The findings will be discussed in the context of specific developmental path as well as the practical therapeutic implications.

According to the risk-taking model proposed by Atkinson (1957) it is assumed the existence of such relationship, namely that the level of achievement motivation of students taking up the challenge of maturity exam is the variable differentiating both the perception of the students’ chances of success as well as their subjective evaluation of the difficulty of the exam. In the study participated 308 people aged from 17 to 21 years. Results’ analysis allows us to make some conclusions about the application of Atkinson’s model in the education system. Highly motivated students and students with high hope of success and low fear of failure select maturity exam configuration which is subjectively perceived as moderately difficult. Students with low achievement motivation, low hope of success and high fear of failure choose the exam configuration more difficult than the group of highly motivated ones. Both groups of students - high and low motivated - overestimate their chances of success. Choices of students distincted by achievement motivation as well as the configuration of hope of success and fear of failure are similar in determining the perception of the subjective level of exam difficulty and determine the probabilistic judgment of success, what is closely related to the theoretical risk-taking model assumptions.

The adaptation process was made using semantic item analyses. 30 Brazilian children, age 8 to 12 years (M=10.6, SD=1.2), 50% male, responded to ZTPI (Leite & Pasquali, 2008) individually. During the application, the items were presented fully and the children were stimulated to appoint out words, terms or phrase they didn’t understand. The words with more doubts were: life path, excitement, impulsively, destiny and boring, and the items were: 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 17, 20, 22, 28, 29, 31, 34, 36, 47 e 49. Also they needed to distinguish the use of the words: story and history. In the discussion with the children, some items were modified, others, giving examples during the application was sufficient for them to understand.

Example of modification: item 2: Familiar childhood sights, sounds, smells often bring back a flood of wonderful memories, was changed to: Sights, sounds, smells of times when I was younger often bring wonderful memories. Also, the participants presented time perspective profiles with higher scores on past-positive (M=3.45, SD=.58) and future (M=3.30, SD=.46) and lower on pastnegative (M=2.82, SD=.69). We can conclude that the ZTPI is suitable to be used with eight years and older alphabetized children, doing some modification and giving out examples to facility the comprehension. Further research applying the recommend adaptation is suggested to continue the ZTPI validation and standardization for children.

WORRELL, University of California, Berkeley Fereshteh FATHI, Bu-Ali Sina University zmello@sfsu.edu The purpose of this study was to translate the Adolescent Time Inventory (ATI; Mello & Worrell, 2007) into Farsi and validate the time attitude scores (ATI-TA) in a sample of adolescents in Iran.

We were also interested in examining Iranian adolescents’ profiles on time frequency (ATI-TF), time orientation (ATI-TO), and time relation (ATI-TR). Time meaning (ATI-TM), a qualitative subscale, was not examined in this study. Participants consisted of 1,200 students (50% male) ranging in age from 14 to 18 (M = 15) attending 6 high schools in Hamedan. Parent’s education levels ranged from no formal schooling to graduate degrees, with the modal education level for fathers and mothers being a high school diploma. Scores on the six ATI-TA subscales were generally reliable—Past Positive (.80), Past Negative (.83), Present Positive (.84), Present Negative (.84), Future Positive (.64), and Future Negative (.70)—and as in other countries, mean scores on positive attitudes were slightly higher than mean scores on negative attitudes and scores were neither skewed nor kurtotic.

Confirmatory factor analyses yielded the best fit for the hypothesized six-factor structure: NNFI = .919, CFI = .927, SRMR = .052, and RMSEA = .043. The modal category for time relation was intercorrelated, and the modal category for time orientation was a dual focus on the present and future. With regard to time frequency, the mode for present and future was daily, but almost equal numbers of adolescents reported thinking about the past on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.

Abstracts: Posters – July 30th A journey through time – children’s drawings of their time perspectives Thomas NEUBAUER, Heidelberg University, Institute for Educational Sciences, Germany neubauer@ibw.uni-heidelberg.de Little is known about time perspectives of primary school children.

One reason might be the difficulty of investigating children’s attitudes towards their past, present and future. Generally it is assumed that children predominantly live in the present.

Developmental psychology suggests a more differentiated view.

From the first year of life human beings find themselves in a temporally structured world wherein they embody time related processes. Thus, their behavior is de facto time-related and time perspectives are meaningful, even when children's language skills lack the elaborateness of adults to describe them. Children objectify time perspectives more symbolically and behaviorally than verbally. In our explorative study we therefore decided to let children symbolize their time perspectives by drawing pictures and talking about them. The aim of our study was to find out about pre-linguistic time perspectives and their visualizations. We asked primary school children (n=15; age 7-10) to make drawings on a specific impulse-story. Additionally they had to explain and talk about their symbolized stories. First evaluations by content analysis indicate that children prefer the future in their drawings.

Furthermore emotional validations of the time dimensions affect the picture configurations. There can also be found aspects of the relatedness of the three time dimensions. Results show that drawings can be applied in order to make time perspectives visible, especially those of primary school children. Discussion will focus on methodological approaches to non-linguistical objectifications of time perspectives as well as on methodically adequate categories in order to evaluate those time perspectives during childhood.

This behaviour is encountered in different countries regardless of cultural context. It has been associated with poor self-regulation and problems with motivation. A plethora of research shows that procrastination leads to higher level of stress, poor academic outcomes, it is negatively related to self-efficacy and self-esteem. The aim of this study is to explore the psychometric parameters of the method to measure tendency to procrastination – the Procrastination Scale by Lay (1986). The questionnaire is a self-report instrument. The participants are asked to describe themselves using a 5-point scale whether the given statements are uncharacteristic or characteristic for them. It consists of 20 items. A sample of over 400 students were recruited via snowball sampling procedure (their mean age 20 years old).

The factor analysis supported a one-factor structure of the scale.

Our study examined the factor structure and criterion validity of the scale. According to these results, the psychometric properties of the scale are promising. Further examination and broader validity of the questionnaire is suggested.

This study explores how an adolescent construct a sense of continuity through the conversation where she or he shares significant autobiographical memory and rewrite story. First, we analysed a conversation between two female college students who were classmates consistently from a kindergarten to a senior high school. They met one month after the alumni meeting of secondary school. They talked for 26 minutes. The excerpt focused on the expression that one regretted that she refused it when a third person classmate asked to take a lunch together. Then, another person accepted her regret and asked her “If it were now”. Then, one responded “no problem.” Thus, a speaker and a listener played a reciprocal role in the conversation. It led to speaker’s changing her temporal position to viewing the event from the present rather than the past. Second, after the conversation, we asked if they had noticed something about how they had changed and not changed from the past, and how they noticed who they were. They labeled themselves in the past as “children” and interpreted a change as “grown up.” This causes detachment from the past and integrated it in the present. Thus, continuity is created by time travelling Diversity of Approaches, Unity of Passion

In the studies participated 351persons, that is 119 men and 323 women in the age of 65 and older.

Appropriately trained researchers conducted studies individually.

The quota sampling process was made. In the experimental group, the proper percentile distribution (gender and age) for the population aged 65 and over was reproduced. The studies used: the survey to measure the future time perspective (the author's experimental version), W. Lens’ future time perspective questionnaire, the scale of generalized attitudes to the future (the author's experimental version). The analysis of collected data allowed to conclude that in the elderly the future time perspective is reduced. Younger people, better educated, evaluating positively the implementation of plans from the past, as well as their own health and finances have a longer future time perspective and more plans for achieving their long-term objectives. The shortterm goals of the elderly are associated with family, health, and the socio-ontological aspect, and the long –term objectives, apart from health and family, concern the implementation of overall values such as happiness, goodness, fairness, and substantive issues. The older the people are, the more often they think about death. Half of the respondents create plans for the time after death, for example, meeting with loved ones, salvation. The 166

Urszula TOKARSKA, Pedagogical University of Krakow, Poland urszula@tokarska.pl The presentation is based on the growing interest in `narrative foreclosure` concept, which belongs to the time perspective psychology as well as to the narrative psychology field. The narrative foreclosure is defined as a phenomenological closeness to the other then `here and now` position of experiencing Self, which evokes non-adaptive psychological consequences (including the depression). In terms of narrative psychology the person has got a strong feeling that, even if life as such continues on, any other chapters, new characters or turning-points to his life story could be added and the same old story should be enacted again and again. This premature hindering of identity development, mostly typical to older adults or terminally ill could be recognized and modify according to a variety of individual and social factors.

The presentation will be devoted to the theoretical considerations about supporting the process of creating the strong and resilient enough life stories and to the illustration of practical solutions of dealing with this phenomena. A kind of work narrowed to intentional narrative influences inside preventing enterprises, especially this practiced via autobiographical workshops will be presented. Prevention activity of narrative openness will be presented as based on the notion about effective going forward as significantly tied to the backward movement of auto-reflection.

The combination of images, music, dialogue, lighting, camera angles, and sound effects in a film mimic thoughts and feelings that occur in our consciousness. Characters in many popular films portray persons who more or less consciously experience time, sometimes in quite an unusual way. There are also some films which seems to be the form of a tribute to time phenomenon itself. The presented work provides a practical guideline for all interested in films that deals seriously with the time as an existential theme. All the depictions proposed offer a unique learning and teaching opportunity - might complement the text, lectures, and discussions with students. Watching them with conscious awareness might be also a form of therapy or self-help causing insight, emotional release or relief, inspirational thoughts, and natural change.

Keywords: psychological time, film Ideas regarding a holistic assessment of TP and the creation of a transcendental TP scale Jonte VOWINCKEL, University of Twente, Netherlands j.c.vowinckel@student.utwente.nl Recent research indicates that mindful present orientation, which goes beyond hedonistic and fatalistic present focus, is an integral, although widely neglected, part of TP, as well as probably the strongest link between TP and well-being (Vowinckel, Westerhof, Bohlmeijer and Webster, in preparation; Seema and Sircova, in press). The newly developed 'present-eudaimonic' scale is a step toward a measurement of holistic present orientation. However, as stated by Zimbardo and Boyd (2008), holistic present orientation further presupposes the consideration of spiritual aspects of life. An instrument measuring transcendental TP should assess the individual frequency of transcendence-oriented cognitive functioning, as well as the associated emotional valence 168

The new measure would then provide information for two dimensions (exploration and acceptance) of the individual relation to transcendental time. To avoid reproducing shortcomings of the existing transcendental future scale, which measures personal beliefs, rather than emotional valence and frequency of transcendental views (Seema, Sircova and Baltin, 2014), further conceptualization of transcendental TP should be accomplished with caution and should be based on broad intercultural discourse of researchers with diverse spiritual/religious backgrounds. In this context, implications for the assessment of TP in general should be discussed. To investigate individual differences in TP orientation, not only the emotional valence, but also the frequency of psychological interference of past-, and future-related contents, is crucial to explore different types of TP-personalities, which probably suggests a change from the agreement-based into a frequencybased response-format for the ZTPI.

Our study confirmed correlation between anger and depression, and also found that the Past Negative Perspective being a mediator is possibly one of the reasons for such relation. Namely, individuals that already have the disposition to feelings of anger seem to develop this maladaptive time frame, which in turn leads to depressive symptoms. Moreover, the study showed that this model is sex-specific.

Circadian preference can be viewed as a one of the most important aspect of personality and daily lifestyle. It has also many implications for well-being, performance, daytime functioning and health. Eveningoriented people prefer evening hours, while morning-oriented people prefer morning hours for both, intellectual and physical activity. It should be emphasized that differences between morning and evening people are not only connected with preferences but are also reflected in biological markers. The relationships between circadian preference, sleep quality and depressiveness among polish children and teenagers requires verification. In study participated 401 youth: 201 students of grammar school (aged 13-14, 115 girls) and 200 students of secondary school (aged 16-17, 104 girls).

The FTP motivational character has particularly sparked the research worldwide in life domains like education, work, and health. However, more than six decadeslong FTP research tradition has led to diversity of definitions, conceptualizations and methodological approaches (e.g., dozens of FTP definitions, more than 30 different FTP measures, different age groups, and study designs). Also, as researchers mostly approached the construct in relatively isolated life domains, FTP lacks interdisciplinary integration and little is known about the factors that may weaken or strengthen the FTP effects. This obvious empirical and theoretical ambiguity hampers the solid empirical and theoretical foundation on FTP construct, what calls for advance research synthesis. The aim of this study is to metaanalytically review extant FTP-research in education, work, and health by: (1) measuring the general effect size of relationships between FTP and attitudes and behaviours in learning, work, and health; and (2) testing which study-level characteristics moderate the effects (i.e., age; FTP operationalization; FTP measure type; study design; outcome type). The study design and preliminary results related to the relationships between FTP and learning and work attitudes and behaviours will be presented and discussed.

Gauthier CAMUS, University of Reims Champagne-Ardennes, Psychology, France Sophie BERJOT, University of Reims Champagne-Ardennes, Psychology, France gautcam@gmail.com Unemployment, if not chosen voluntary, has many negative psychological, social, and physical consequences and as such is a major source of stress. To better understand how people appraise and react to unemployment, we propose to use the transactional model of stress and in particular its application to identity which differentiates between threat and challenge to personal and social identity. Using this model, we propose to focus on the consideration of future consequences as a possible variable that can influence how employed people appraise their situation of being jobless in regard to their identity. Indeed, many studies showed that time perspective could be easily modified and restructured by employment. Moreover, the social and economical situation of employed people is such that priorities become more and more short-terms as time of employment increases. On the other hand, the consideration of future consequences has been linked to a better health and better adjusted health behaviors. So the aim of the study is to test the impact of the consideration of the future consequences (people consider present versus future consequences of their action before acting) on how unemployed people cognitively appraise this situation of unemployment in regard to their personal and social identities. Results, using structural equation modeling, showed that while present CFC was an antecedent of threat appraisals, future appraisal was an antecedent of challenge appraisals. Appraisals impact then perceived stress which impacts 174

Changes in intention for self-change and self-esteem across the life span in Japanese samples.

Yuta CHISHIMA, University of Tsukuba, Graduate School of Comprehensive Human Sciences, Japan chishima@human.tsukuba.ac.jp The purpose of this study was to examine the trajectories of intention for self-change and self-esteem across developmental stages in Japanese samples. It is well known that most adolescents are eager to change themselves. However, only few studies have examined empirically how self-change intentions transform across the life span. A total of 1868 Japanese participants aged 12 to 69 years responded to measures of intentions for self-change (Chishima, 2013), focus on self-change, and self-esteem (Rosenberg, 1965). Data from junior high school (12–15 yrs.), high school (15–17 yrs.), and college students (18–22 yrs.) were collected via questionnaires. Data from participants in the age group 22 years and above were collected using a web survey. An ANOVA indicated that the self-change intentions significantly increased (F (7, 1813) = 22.91, p < .001, η2 = .08), while selfesteem significantly decreased with age (F (7, 1840) = 25.08, p < .001, η2 = .09). Additionally, post-hoc comparisons revealed that high school students had the highest scores on items assessing the intentions for self-change and lowest scores on items assessing self-esteem as compared to the other age groups. College students scored the highest on focus on self-change (F (7, 1852) = 27.01, p < .001, η2 = .09). In sum, the self-change intentions peaked at adolescence and decreased with rise in self-esteem across the life span. These findings were confirmed and expanded the results in previous studies (e.g. Robins, Trzesniewski, Tracy, Gosling, & Potter, 2002).

Virginie CHRISTOPHE, University of Liège - ULG, Department of Psychology: Cognition and Behavior, Personality Psychology and Individual Differences Unit, Belgique v.christophe@student.ulg.ac.be Recent findings suggest that we neglect our personality to predict our future emotional reactions to specific events by focusing only on the events, inducing wrong forecasts. An interesting question to investigate is that our friends could predict better our affective states about future events because they take into account our personal dispositions. In the present study, sixty-nine pairs of students (participant/friend) were asked to predict their emotional reactions and those for a friend on a 7-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 (very bad) to 7 (very good) two months before they will obtain their results for one examination. All the participants were contacted by SMS the day when the results were available, and were requested to rate their present affective states. Results showed that emotional predictions were different as compared to the current emotions for extreme results (upper than 8/10, and below 4/10) for the main participants but also for their friends, meaning that all the subjects predicted more positive emotions than current ones for very good results, and more negative emotions than current ones for very bad results. In contrast, the predictions were right for middle results (between 5/10 and 7/10) for both groups. These findings do not show that our friends are better predictors of our future emotional states than us. One possible explanation is that in present study, both participants and friends were concerned about the future event (i.e., academic results). So, our friends could be better forecasters only in the case of future events not shared.

2004). However, there is no data on the relationship between the level of parental stress and time perspective in this group of parents. The purpose of the study was to explore this relationship.

A sample of 36 mothers of children with developmental disabilities, aged 3 to 12 years, from Gdansk, Gdynia, Sopot, Lodz, Bialystok and Warsaw, completed the Polish version of the Parenting Stress Index (PSI) and the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI).

We have studied the time perspective in mothers and the level of parental stress as well as we looked for correlation between the five ZTPI factors and 3 general scales of the PSI. The preliminary analysis of the results has shown that past negative time perspective in mothers was significantly related to all three main domains of PSI. The strongest positive correlation was found for past negative time perspective and total stress scale. Moreover, past negative time perspective has correlated positively both with Parent Domain and Child Domain. The data are still collected and complete results will be presented at the conference.

Abstracts: Posters – July 31st Relation between adolescent’s time orientation toward present and effects of thinking about death on their attitude toward time Ryo ISHII, Nagoya University, Psychology and Human Developmental Sciences, Japan nxt001@gmail.com Previous studies revealed that thinking about death has effects on adolescent’s time attitude. Many factors, however, are easily predicted to influence the effects of thinking about death. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between adolescent’s time orientation and the effects of thinking about death on their attitude toward time. A total of 32 undergraduates answered 2 questionnaires assessing time orientation and attitude toward time before and after thinking about death. By means of individual time orientation score which measured before the thinking assignment, participants were divided into 2 groups; a strong time orientation group (n=16), and a weak time orientation group (n=16). The results of ANOVA showed that attitude toward time after thinking about death was more positive than before in the strong time orientation group. Meanwhile, in the weak time orientation group, attitude toward time after thinking about death was more negative than before. These results were showed only when time orientation groups were organized by using the scores assessing time orientation toward present. Especially, time orientation toward present has an influence on the effects of thinking about death on their sense of fulfillment in present time and aspiration for the goals. These results support suggestions that time orientation toward present is necessary for adolescents to have the sense of fulfillment in present time and aspiration for the goals when they think about death. The importance of time orientation toward present for death education was suggested.

A Polish sample of 565 participants aged between 18 and 57 was tested. In females, regardless of chronotype, the greatest need for sex occurred between 18:00 and 24:00, but secondary peak appeared in morning types at 6:00-9:00. In males, the greatest need for sex occurred either in the morning or evening: in evening types at 9:00-12:00 and 18:00-3:00; in neither types at 6:00-9:00 and 18:00-24:00; in morning types at 6:00-12:00 and 18:00-24:00.

Considering time of day when subjects were undertaking sexual activity most frequently, this appeared between 18:00-24:00 for all the participants, and prolonged until 3:00 at night in evening type males. Morningness preference was more strongly related to the timing of need for sex than to the timing of actual sexual activity (r = -.275 vs. r = -.174), while the timing of desire and the timing of sexual activity were positively, but moderately related (r = .320).

Sample: 664 students (23,8 % males; the mean age 20,44 years) from different universities of Lithuania. Measures: The Lithuanian version of ZTPI and a questionnaire concerning risky behaviours (such as the usage of narcotic substances as well as the involvement in extreme types of sport etc.) were used. Cluster analysis performed using Sleipner 2.1 (The Ward method was used) identified seven different time perspective clusters. The frequency of risky behaviour (such as being passenger in the car with a drunk driver, binge drinking behaviour as well as smoking) differed among the identified clusters. The highest frequency of several risky behaviours was reported within the cluster characterized with an elevated past negative, present fatalistic and present hedonistic time perspectives. The lowest frequency of risky behaviours was observed within the cluster characterized by predominant future time perspective.

MELLO, San Francisco State University, USA Monika BUHL, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg, Germany svenja.konowalczyk@issw.uni-heidelberg.de Generally, personality development and identity formation can be seen as central topics in adolescent development (Oerter & Montada, 2008). Pinquart und Silbereisen (2000) discuss how time perspective is an important component of self-description.

Adolescents identify themselves compared with children not only by the present, but also by the past and the future. Mello and Worrell (2007) developed the Adolescent Time Attitudes Scale (ATAS) to measure positive and negative attitudes toward the past, the present, and the future. The ATAS has been translated into several languages including German (Worrell, Mello, & Buhl, 2008, 2013) and Spanish (Mello, Worrell, Anguiano, & Mendoza-Denton, 2010). This study aims to examine the structure of the ATAS in samples of German, Luxembourgian and Spanish adolescents.

Data were self-reported and included German (n = 999) Spanish (n = 830) and Luxembourgian (n = 723) adolescents. The ATAS comprised 24 items with 4 items each measuring the past, present and future positive and negative attitudes, respectively.

The confirmatory factor analyses using Mplus produced in all three samples a good model-fit for the theoretically postulated sixfactorial structure (χ^2/df ratiomax = 3.63; RMSEAmax = .056;

The main study question was whether the dominant time orientation could influence intrinsic motivation in student population. The predictor variables were the dimensions of time perspective (the affirmative and negative past, the hedonistic and fatalistic present and the future), whereas the criterion variable was the intrinsic motivation for studying. Sample: the respondents were 516 students of different departments of the Faculty of Philosophy – Niš. Instruments: Zimbardo’s inventory of time perspective, ZTPI (Zimbardo & Boyd, 1999), was used to measure the time perspective; Academic motivation scale, AMS (Pelletier, Blias, Briere, Senecal & Valleries, 1992), was used to determine the extent of inner motivation. The results show that we have achieved a statistically significant regressive model which accounts for 27% of the variance (R=0,52; R2=0,27). The affirmative past, the hedonistic present and the inclination towards the future stood out as important predictors of inner motivation. A feeling of happiness and current pleasure can, along with planning, influence the increase in students’ inner motivation.

Abstracts: Posters â&#x20AC;&#x201C; July 31st The relationship between time perspective and perceived stress in temporal discounting among adolescents Marta MALESZA, University of Warsaw, Faculty of Psychology, Poland marta.malesza@psych.uw.edu.pl Temporal discounting is a behavioral measure of decision-making and describes a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preference for smaller, immediate rewards over larger, later payoffs. As the delay to receiving a reward increases, there is a decrease in value of the future reward.

Previous research has studied the roles of time perspective and stress on decision-making separately, but very few have investigated both factors in relation to temporal discounting. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of time perspective and perception of stress on temporal discounting among adolescents. 118 adolescents participated in the experiment, ranging in age from 14 to 18 years. Individuals were recruited from a parent volunteer database. Data was collected using online versions of three questionnaires: Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, Kirby Monetary Choice Questionnaire, and Perceived Stress Scale. Results indicated a significant interaction between future time perspective and perceived stress in relation to the temporal discounting measure. Perceived stress became more relevant and important in decision making when individuals were more future oriented. More specifically, in highly future oriented individuals, perceived stress was a significant mediator and moderate predictor of temporal discounting performance.

Moreover, structural modeling analysis indicated that the relation of perceived stress to time perspective measures was indirect, mediated through behavioral coping. Results are discussed with respect to epigenetic models and the role of executive functions in self-control ability.

WORRELL, University of California, Berkeley, USA zmello@sfsu.edu In this study, we examined how American and Nigerian adolescents and young adults compared in time relation. This concept has been defined as the degree to which individuals’ perceive that the past, the present, and the future are related to one another, and is considered one element of the broader psychological construct of time perspective (Cottle, 1967; Mello, in press; Mello, Finan, & Worrell, 2013). Data were collected from a metropolitan area in Nigeria (n = 194) and Western and Mountain regions in the United States (n = 748). The primary measure included the Time Relation Instrument (Mello & Worrell, 2007), which comprises several figures of circles labeled the past, the present, and the future that vary in the degree to which they overlap. The overlapping circles indicate perceived relationships among the time periods. Results indicated that Americans reported more linear and less unrelated perspectives of the time periods than the Nigerians χ2(1, 910) = 71.69, p < .001. The association between time relation and country was moderately strong, as indicated by a Cramer’s V value of .28. The results of this study reflect an important direction of research that seeks to understand cultural variation in time relation. These findings are consistent with theoretical discussions suggesting that time perspective is both individually- and culturally-related (Jones, 1988). Future research should examine the association between variation in time relation and developmental outcomes, cultural differences in this association, and the psychosocial variables that may account for the differences.

Abstracts: Posters – July 31st Attitudes toward future among managers in Russian companies Timofei NESTIK, Institute of Psychology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Russian Federation nestik@gmail.com Two studies explored social-psychological factors of managers’ attitudes toward analysis of the future risks and possibilities for their organization. Study 1 examined the relationship between group reflexivity and managers’ representations of organizational future (N=168). The evaluation of the organizational future was found related to the strength of organizational identity, the leadership vision the team members adopt and the organizational mood. The time span of the organizational future that is discussed by managers turned out to be strongly related to the official planning horizon (i.e. to the length of business cycles). The group orientation for the analysis of future risks and possibilities during the meetings was positively related to the group reflexivity. The results imply that a higher level of group attention to the experience and the lessons learned can favorably influence the group proactiveness: no common future without acknowledging the common past. Study 2 (N=169) examined the organizational and psychological factors of the managerial team ability for foresight that was found mainly related to the social integration (shared vision of organizational long-term objectives, group trust and organizational commitment of managers, stability of managerial team membership). Three different psychological mechanisms of team members’ attitudes toward common future can be supposed: 1) group identification based on the common objectives; 2) interpersonal emotional contamination in informal talks forced by anxiety about near future and by escape to the idealized past; and 3) group reflection that imposes controllable and mainly rational discussion about near and distant future where the past is used for organizational learning. Possible directions for future research are discussed.

Lichtenberg’s well-known saying that shows the meaning of time in the scientific research.

Presented findings are inconsistent with Lichtenberg’s contention.

The authors stay in opposition to this statement and emphasize universal nature of time. Time in this research was defined in terms of Time Perspectives and state of balance (Balanced Time Perspective) established by Zimbardo (1999). The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between Time Perspective and need for cognition. Need for cognition was described from two different theoretical points of view – the first captures motivational (needs) and the second personality (the Big Five model) aspects. A sample of 140 university students of both sexes aged between 20 and 38 filled three online questionnaires. The following questionnaires were used: the Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI), polish version of Need for Cognition Scale (KPP) and polish version of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI – PL –R). The results obtained in this research suggest: a) Coincidence of need for cognition and openness to experience b) Positive correlation between Balanced Time Perspective operationalized as DBTP rate with dimensions of personality in the Big Five model c) Correlation between Balanced Time Perspective and Need for Cognition Our research confirmed the coexistence of relationships between need for active exploring and Balanced Time Perspective.

Firstly, it investigates the relations between free-time management and boredom during leisure time. Secondly, it shows the psychometric parameters of these scales on a Polish sample (Free-time Management Scale by Wang et al., and Leisure Boredom Scale by Chung al). Thirdly, it examines the relations between our attitude towards leisure time, life satisfaction, and self-esteem. In the study over 400 students took part. The scale to measure free-time management has five dimensions: goal setting and evaluating, technique, values, immediate response, and scheduling. It comprises 20-item. The Leisure Boredom Scale consisted of 16 items where responds are on a 5-point Likert-type scale. Time managements skills were negatively related to boredom. The Cronbach coefficients alpha of both scales were satisfactory.

Reliabilities analysis, descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis were conducted. It was found that the most prevalent TP profile was Future time orientation, in both years of study.

Balanced time profile was not presented among individuals.

Moreover, changes in the most prominent meaning of life orientations were shown. Goals in life and Locus of control-Life were the prevalent orientations in the first year and Effectiveness of life - in the second year of study. Furthermore, there were found two-way connections between time perspective and meaning of life orientations. Likewise, changes in the revealed two-way connections could be associated with personal changes in meaning of life orientations. Thus, a more detailed study of changes in meaning of life orientations in the dynamic of relations between temporal and meaning of life orientations possibly could explain changes in personal time perspective. What could be confirmed or denied at later stages of a longitudinal study.

The first categorization models of one’s personal experiences are formed in the very childhood and are passed to a child from the parents or the nearest people. The usage of these models leads to their reinforcement or change depending on the result. Thus, time perspective of an individual undergoes changes and transformations throughout his life and should include the whole 188

Five hundred and eleven Ukrainian participants completed the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory and answered the questions about participants’ current place of residence and their place of residence in childhood. Answers to the questions made it possible to determine respondents’ change of residence and its relation to the current time perspective. The results have shown that certain facts from individual’s past or present life, represented by his residence in childhood and current residential place do not determine his time perspective. However, the content of time perspective is influenced by the current life situation of an individual that includes history of his life path represented by the changing different residential settlements.

On the one hand the loan enables realization of a concrete goal (e. g. starting own business, purchase of apartment, children education), while on the other hand becomes a psychological burden due to the dependence on the bank and leads to self-restrictions. Thus we test the question what emotions prevail – positive or negative and in what way and degree the personal FTP affects them. The assumption is that those with the long FTP having short term loan will experience rather positive emotions. Those with short FTP and long-term loan – rather negative emotions. The comparison of the outcomes with the results from Ss not indebted in a bank permits to indicate the intensity of emotions in loantakers.

Review of research Małgorzata SOBOL-KWAPIŃSKA, Institute of Psychology, The John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, Poland Włodzimierz PŁOTEK, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poland Marcin CYBULSKI, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poland sobol@kul.pl Background: Pain is a complex phenomenon. The experience of the past, the perception of the current situation and attitudes towards the future are very important psychological factors in the experience of pain. Aims: The purpose of the poster is to present a review of research on the relationship between pain and selected aspects of temporal perspective.

Points for the Discussion: Depressive thoughts concerning the past, regret for the past and their impact on the current experience of pain are analyzed. In the following, issues related to attitudes toward the future (fear of what will happen in the future, the expectation of pain perceived as a threat) and their importance in the perception of pain and coping with it are discussed. Then the research on the relationship between pain and focus on the present (mindfulness, flow) are considered. Conclusions: Negative past and future perspective are related to the high intensity of pain experience. The active present perspective limits anxiety and grief , increases an attitude of curiosity and involvement in the "here and now” and thus makes it easier to cope with pain.

Practical implications: The results of these investigation can be useful in medicine or pain therapy in psychology. In order to reduce the pain feeling doctors , during the interview (or examination), should assist the patient to increase the focus on the present and reduce the negative past and future perspective.

The present study is focused on familial bases of TP. It was conducted on 300 young adults aged 18-30; self-report measures were applied to assess their TP profiles, perceived closeness and intimacy in families o origin, as well as perceived parenting styles of both their mothers and fathers. Regression analyses conducted for each TP as well for Balanced TP coefficient suggest that familial background remains crucial for the development o adaptive TP profile. In particular, a combination of high closeness and intimacy, and both parents' coherence in their parenting styles remain a key to developing higher Past Positive and Future TPs, as well as to obtaining temporal balance.

It was also postulated that old people work out various approaches toward their termination of biological life, even if they do not believe in any after earthly life existence. The studied group consisted of 350 participants – 231 women and 119 men aged more than 65. The two experimental versions of research tools were used: a survey to measure temporal life perspective and a scale of general attitudes towards future. The obtained results revealed that eighty – year- old people more often think of death than sixty-year-old ones. It appeared that nearly half of the studied group possessed transcendental goals concerning “life” after death. The above-mentioned goals covered following contents: meeting close relatives, religious activity and fulfillment of universals values (for example happiness, peace of mind).

The combination of images, music, dialogue, lighting, camera angles, and sound effects in a film mimic thoughts and feelings that occur in our consciousness. Characters in many popular films portray persons who more or less consciously experience time, sometimes in quite an unusual way. There are also some films which seems to be the form of a tribute to time phenomenon itself. The presented work provides a practical guideline for all interested in films that deals seriously with the time as an existential theme. All the depictions proposed offer a unique learning and teaching opportunity - might complement the text, lectures, and discussions with students. Watching them with conscious awareness

Abstracts: Posters â&#x20AC;&#x201C; July 31st Gender differences in the relationship between temporal orientation and depression among employees Miku YOSHIDA, Nagoya University, Department of Psychology and Human Developmental Sciences, Japan Atsuko KANAI, Nagoya University, Department of Psychology and Human Developmental Sciences, Japan miku.y.0213@gmail.com The purpose of this study was to examine, quantitatively and qualitatively, gender differences in the relationship between temporal orientation and depression among employees. In study 1, a questionnaire survey was conducted. The participants were 96 employees. The results of one-way ANOVA showed that those who had negative temporal orientation had significantly higher depression than those who had positive one. Also, the results of two-way ANOVA showed that the relationship between negative temporal orientation and depression in females was stronger than that in males. In study 2, a semi-structured interview was conducted. The participants were 10 employees who consented to additional survey in the questionnaire of study 1. The verbatim transcription about their past, present and future events were classified into several categories by using KJ method. The results of chi-square test suggested gender differences as follows: (1) in regard to the recollecting past events, the males tended to have topics of their jobs mainly, while the females tended to have a large variety of topics; (2) in regard to the recognizing future events, the males tended to have concrete visions of the future, while the females tended to have their ambiguous visions. These findings suggested that the depression of male employees who have the negative temporal orientation was suppressed by having concrete visions for the future. The relationship between recollecting past events and depression was also discussed.

Abstracts: Posters – July 31st Cognitive control and intelligence as predictors of time perspective: high level of cognitive ability reduces maladaptive time orientation Marcin ZAJENKOWSKI, Faculty of Psychology, University of Warsaw, Poland zajenkowski@psych.uw.edu.pl There is a growing interest in the study of the role of intellectual functioning, traditionally viewed as a ‘cool’ cognitive concept, in the regulation of ‘hot’ processes such as affective experiences.

Especially, much research has explored the relationship between executive functioning (working memory, cognitive control) and the self-control and self-regulation of affect. Because the former is also highly correlated with intelligence, in the present studies we decided to examine how both variables predict time orientation, since many investigations devoted to time perspective (TP) show that Zimbardo’s dimensions are associated with various aspects of emotionality. In two studies TP (with ZTPI), intelligence (with Raven’s test), cognitive control and three stress states: task engagement, distress and worry were measured. It was found that participants with higher results on cognitive control task and intelligence test exhibit also lower level of past negative and present fatalistic TPs. Moreover, individuals with high fatalism generally experienced higher stress while solving the cognitive tasks. The results are discussed in terms of the cognitive control role in self-regulation.

Keywords: intelligence, cognitive control, time perspective, stress
