A1 - Seegebarth, Barbara A1 - Peyer, Mathias T1 - A sustainable pathway to consumer wellbeing BT - the role of anticonsumption and consumer empowerment JF - The Journal of consumer affairs N2 - This study investigates the effect of different anticonsumption constructs on consumer wellbeing. The study assumes that people will only lower their level of consumption if doing so does not also lower personal wellbeing. More precisely, this research investigates how specific subtypes of sustainable anticonsumption (e.g., voluntary simplicity, collaborative consumption, and debt-free living) relate to different states of consumer's wellbeing (e.g., financial, psychosocial, and subjective wellbeing). This work also examines whether consumer empowerment can improve personal wellbeing and strengthen the anticonsumption wellbeing relationship. The results show that voluntarily foregoing consumption does not reduce wellbeing and consumer empowerment plays a significant role in supporting sustainable pathways to consumer wellbeing. This study reasons that empowerment improves consumer sovereignty, but may be detrimental for consumers heavily concerned about debt-free living. The present investigation concludes by proposing implications for public and consumer policymakers wishing to promote appropriate sustainable (anticonsumption) pathways to consumer wellbeing.

Needs and emotions during classes BT - the Felix-App: new ways of feedback and evaluating classes in real time T2 - 9th International Conference on Society and Information Technologies (ICSIT 2018) N2 - The “output-orientation” is omnipresent in teacher education. In order to evaluate teachers' and students' performances, a wide range of different quantitative questionnaires exist worldwide. One important goal of teaching evaluation is to increase the quality of teaching and learning. The author argues, that standard evaluations which are typically made at the end of the semester are problematic due to two reasons. The first one is that some of the questions are too general and don`t offer concrete ideas as to what kind of actions can be taken to make the courses better. The second problem is that the evaluation is mostly made when the course is already over. Because of this criticism, Apelojg invented the Felix-App which offers the possibility to give feedback in real-time by asking for the emotions and needs that occur during different learning situations. The idea is very simple: positive emotions and satisfied needs are helpful for the learning process. Negative emotions and unsatisfied needs have negative effects on the learning process. First descriptive results show, that “managing emotions” during classes can have positive effects on both motivation and emotions.

Das wirft die Frage auf, wie das notwendige Wissen erzeugt, bewahrt, verteilt und auffindbar gemacht werden kann. Ein solches Wissensmanagement kann die Arbeit der Behörden qualitativ verbessern und effizienter machen. Dennoch wird Wissen in der Verwaltungspraxis bisher nur unzureichend gemanagt. Ein systematisches Wissensmanagement erfordert personelle, finanzielle und technische Ressourcen. Sind diese nicht vorhanden, können Verwaltungen zunächst auf einzelne Instrumente des Wissensmanagements zurückgreifen, um ihre Arbeit mit begrenztem Aufwand zu verbessern.

A1 - Weiland, Sabine T1 - Introduction BT - A political science perspective on the Anthropocene T2 - The Anthropocene Debate and Political Science N2 - Over the past decades, it has become more and more obvious that ongoing globalisation processes have substantial impacts on the natural environment. Studies reveal that intensified global economic relations have caused or accelerated dramatic changes in the Earth system, defined as the sum of our planet’s interacting physical, chemical, biological and human processes (Schellnhuber et al. 2004). Climate change, biodiversity loss, disrupted biogeochemical cycles, and land degradation are often cited as emblematic problems of global environmental change (Rockström et al. 2009; Steffen et al. 2015). In this context, the term Anthropocene has lately received widespread attention and gained some prominence in the academic literature Y1 - 2019 SN - 978-1-351-17412-1 SN - 978-0-8153-8614-8 U6 - https://doi.org/10.4324/9781351174121 IS - 1 SP - 1 EP - 12 PB - Routledge CY - London ER - TY - THES A1 - Döring, Matthias T1 - The public encounter T1 - Dynamiken von Bürger-Staat-Interaktionen BT - dynamics of citizen-state interactions N2 - This thesis puts the citizen-state interaction at its center. Building on a comprehensive model incorporating various perspectives on this interaction, I derive selected research gaps. The three articles, comprising this thesis, tackle these gaps. A focal role plays the citizens’ administrative literacy, the relevant competences and knowledge necessary to successfully interact with public organizations. The first article elaborates on the different dimensions of administrative literacy and develops a survey instrument to assess these. The second study shows that public employees change their behavior according to the competences that citizens display during public encounters. They treat citizens preferentially that are well prepared and able to persuade them of their application’s potential. Thereby, they signal a higher success potential for bureaucratic success criteria which leads to the employees’ cream-skimming behavior. The third article examines the dynamics of employees’ communication strategies when recovering from a service failure. The study finds that different explanation strategies yield different effects on the client’s frustration. While accepting the responsibility and explaining the reasons for a failure alleviates the frustration and anger, refusing the responsibility leads to no or even reinforcing effects on the client’s frustration. The results emphasize the different dynamics that characterize the nature of citizen-state interactions and how they establish their short- and long-term outcomes. N2 - Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit der direkten Interaktion zwischen BürgerInnen und Verwaltungen auseinander. Auf Basis eines umfassenden Modells, das verschiedene Perspektiven auf die Dynamiken dieser “public encounter” beschreibt, werden ausgewählte Forschungslücken hervorgehoben. Die drei Artikel, die diese Dissertation konstituieren, fokussieren diese Lücken. Dabei spielt die Frage nach den notwendigen Kompetenzen von BürgerInnen, die es ermöglichen, erfolgreich und auf Augenhöhe mit Verwaltungen interagieren zu können, eine wichtige Rolle. Die Relevanz verschiedener Dimensionen wird herausgearbeitet und mit Hilfe eines Survey-Instruments validiert. In einer weiteren Studie zeigt sich, dass VerwaltungsmitarbeiterInnen BürgerInnen bevorzugen, die dank dieser Kompetenzen besser auf Interaktionen vorbereitet sind. Aufgrund der besseren Vorbereitung sowie der Fähigkeit, ihr Gegenüber vom Nutzen des Antrags zu überzeugen, gelingt es BürgerInnen mit einer hohen Kompetenz, eine höhere Erfolgswahrscheinlichkeit im Sinne der organisationalen Ziele zu signalisieren. Der dritte Artikel beleuchtet die Dynamik der Kommunikationsstrategien von MitarbeiterInnen im Falle von Fehlern bei der Erbringung von Dienstleistungen. Die Studie stellt heraus, dass verschiedene Kommunikationsstrategien zur Wiedergutmachung von Fehlern unterschiedliche Effekte auf das Frustrationsniveau der KlientInnen haben. Hierbei zeigt sich, dass die bewusste Übernahme von Verantwortung sowie die Erläuterung der Ursachen des Fehlers die Frustration senken, während das Abwälzen der Verantwortung keinen bzw. sogar einen verstärkenden Effekt auf die Frustration hat. Die Ergebnisse verdeutlichen die Dynamiken, die bei der Interaktion zwischen BürgerInnen und Verwaltungen entstehen und für das kurz- und langfristige Ergebnis dieser Interaktionen maßgeblich sein können.

The test data required for this has an uncertain influence on the simulation results, because the feasable search space can be changed drastically by small variations of the initial problem model. Methods could benefit from this to varying degrees. This speaks in favor of defining standardized and reusable test data for JSP problem classes, which in turn requires a systematic describability of the test data in order to be able to compile problem adequate data sets. This article looks at the test data used for comparing methods by literature review. It also shows how and why the differences in test data have to be taken into account. From this, corresponding challenges are derived which the management of test data must face in the context of JSP research.

Given that preschoolers are in the most rapid phase of brain development, and display profound emotional development, it was the aim of the present study to establish an adapted interoceptive accuracy paradigm and to investigate associations between sociodemographic (age, sex) and emotional variables with interoceptive accuracy. Forty-nine children (aged 4–6 years) completed the jumping jack paradigm (JJP), a heartbeat tracking paradigm, which includes a noninvasive physical perturbation via performing jumping jacks for 10 s. An interoceptive accuracy score was based on the comparison between self-reported and objectively recorded heart rate prior to and after completion of jumping jacks. Children also completed validated measures for emotion recognition and emotion regulation. Children's objectively recorded heart rate significantly increased after the JJP by 20 bpm on average. There was a positive relationship between reactivity on self-reported heart rate and objectively recorded heart rate increase. The derived scores for interoceptive accuracy increased with age, suggesting older children to report more self-reported heart rate change than objectively recorded, but were unrelated to children's sex or BMI. While emotion recognition and regulation significantly increased with age, the interoceptive accuracy score was unrelated to emotion recognition, but marginally associated to emotion regulation. Children with higher interoceptive accuracy score (i.e., self-reporting more heart rate change than objectively recorded) received lower emotion regulation score. The present study is the first to depict a novel behavioral paradigm to assess interoceptive accuracy in preschool-aged children.

Interaktion. Organisation. Zeitschrift für Angewandte Organisationspsychologie (GIO) N2 - Dieser Beitrag im Journal Gruppe. Interaktion. Organisation. stellt dar, wie willentliches Vergessen die Anpassung an notwendige Veränderungen für Individuen, Gruppen und Organisationen verbessert und wie willentliches Vergessen bewusst und gezielt gestaltet werden kann. Damit Verhalten in Folge einer notwendigen Veränderung angepasst wird, reicht es nicht aus, dass Menschen wissen was zu tun ist, willens und in der Lage sind ihr Verhalten zu verändern. Eine Veränderung gelingt nur dann, wenn nur noch das neue Verhalten zur Anwendung kommt und nicht mehr das Alte, wenn das alte Verhalten vergessen wird. Der notwendige Prozess des willentlichen Vergessens ist durch Entfernen von Hinweisreizen, die die Erinnerung des zu Vergessenden und durch Platzierung von Hinweisreizen, die die Aktivierung des Neuen auslösen, gestaltbar. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt die förderliche Wirkung von Hinweisreizen auf willentliches Vergessen dar, stellt sie im Rahmen des Berichts einer experimentellen Studie unter Beweis und gibt praktische Implikationen, wie für Individuen, Gruppen und Organisationen willentliches Vergessen gestaltet werden kann. N2 - This paper in the journal Gruppe. Interaktion. Organisation. illustrates how intentional forgetting can improve the adaptation to necessary changes for individuals, groups and organizations, and how intentional forgetting can be consciously and purposefully designed.In order for behavior to be adapted as aresult of necessary change, it is not enough for people to know what to do, to be willing and able to change their behavior. Achange succeeds only if the new behavior is activated and not the old one, if the old behavior is forgotten. The necessary process of intentional forgetting can be designed by removing cues that retrieve memory items to be forgotten and placing cues that trigger the retrieval of the new.This paper presents the beneficial effects of cues on intentional forgetting, proves them in the context of areport of an experimental study and gives practical implications on how to design intentional forgetting for individuals, groups and organizations.
