    Impact of the Format of Scoring and Degree of Testlet Effect on Test Equating for TestletBased Tests: the Perspective of Model Comparison
    Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2017, 5 (6):  334-340.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2017.06.003

    A simulation study was conducted to investigate the impact of format of scoring and degree of testlet effect on test equating under polytomous IRT models. Both graded response model(GRM) and graded response testlet model(GRTM) were used to fit the equating results, meanwhile concurrent calibrate method was adopted to place item parameters that came from different tests on the same scale. Results showed that: (1) The equating results under different IRT models were influenced by different formats of scoring and degree of testlet effect. (2) When testlet effect was small than 05, GRM produced better equating results than GRTM both on discrimination and difficulty parameters regardless of formats of scoring. (3) When testlet effect was larger than 05, the equating results under different IRT models depended upon the ways of scoring, GRM produced small equating errors than GRTM for dichotomous items, while GRTM yielded small equating errors than GRM for polytomous items.

    Uselessness Makes Usefulness: How Ritual Behavior Influences Consumer Behavior
    Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2017, 5 (6):  341-352.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2017.06.004

    Although ritual behavior is widespread and plays an important role in consumption, the relationship between ritual behavior and consumer behavior has not received systematic attention by researchers from mainstream social science including psychology. This article summarized relevant researches of the influence of ritual behavior on consumer behavior from the levels of group and individual, and discussed the underlying mechanisms from four aspects: social identity theory, cognitive resource consumption, sense of control and personal involvement. Then, some issues to be solved by future research were presented, including the subdivision of ritual behaviors and the effectiveness explanation of mediating mechanism, and discussed directions for future research.

    Review of Selfcontrol Induced Ego Depletion
    Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2017, 5 (6):  353-358.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2017.06.005
    Abstract ( 698 )   PDF(pc) (586KB) ( 1833 )   Save
    There is a growing body of research about selfcontrol induced ego depletion in recent years. The studies mainly adopted the experimental paradigm of dual unrelated selfcontrol task, which involved the inhibitory control of cognition, emotion and behavior. The results showed that selfcontrol could induce ego depletion, namely selfcontrol depletion, and after the depletion, it could be compensated. However, the problem is that, in theory and practice, selfcontrol is not equal to ego depletion. In this paper, we reviewed the research literature on ego depletion induced by selfcontrol. We suggest that, firstly, previous studies narrow the concept of selfcontrol and equated selfcontrol with inhibitory control; secondly, the ecological validity of dual unrelated selfcontrol task is not high; finally, “white bear” thoughtcontrol task does not have culture universal applicability. Therefore, the future selfcontrol study should based on the reality, and pay more attention to its positive effects.

    The paper was to develop the parents evaluation scale on preschoolers social skills.Based on a twodimensional structure theory about the social skills, the items were collected through interviews and literatures, and a formal questionnaire was developed by item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis. There are totally 32 items in the parents evaluation scale on preschoolers social skills. The selfcontrol subscale consists of four factors, namely, possessiveness, perseverance, consciousness, and delay of gratification. The initiative subscale also consists of four factors, including priority, spontaneity, expressivity, and helping. Confirmatory factor analysis shows that the questionnaire has good structural validity. Internal consistency reliabilities are between 0.85 and 0.93. The testretest reliability coefficients with 4 weeks apart range from 0.70 to 0.77, and the correlation of the questionnaire with criterion is between 0.31 and 0.54. The scale has good validity and reliability and can be used as an effective and reliable tool for assessing preschoolers social skills.

    Gender Role Conflict Scale for Chinese high school students was developed based on indepth interview and open questionnaire by combination of GRCS and GRCS-A, and was finished by 620 high school students from Henan Province by using convenience sampling. The reliability and validity of Gender Role Conflict Scale for Chinese high school students was examined by Pearson's correlations, exploratory and confirmatory factor analytic approaches. The empirical results reveal that: The Gender Role Conflict Scale for Chinese high school was established with four factors including “Restrictive Emotionality”, “Restrictive Affectionate Behavior Between Men/Women”, “Conflict Between Work and Family Relations”, “Success, Power and Competition”, with a cumulative contribution rate of 56.58%. The Confirmatory factor analysis results showed that the scale had good fitting degree. The Cronbach's α was 0.822.Item total score correlations were between 0.47 and 0.87(p<0.01). The correlation between Gender Role Conflict Scale for Chinese high school students and Psychological Stress was 0.26(p<0.01); the correlation between Gender Role Conflict Scale for Chinese high school students and Perceived Social Support was -0.44(p<0.01).
