TY - JOUR A1 - Abendroth, Johanna A1 - Nauroth, Peter A1 - Richter, Tobias A1 - Gollwitzer, Mario T1 - Non-strategic detection of identity-threatening information: Epistemic validation and identity defense may share a common cognitive basis JF - PLoS ONE N2 - Readers use prior knowledge to evaluate the validity of statements and detect false information without effort and strategic control. The present study expands this research by exploring whether people also non-strategically detect information that threatens their social identity. Participants (N = 77) completed a task in which they had to respond to a “True” or “False” probe after reading true, false, identity-threatening, or non-threatening sentences. Replicating previous studies, participants reacted more slowly to a positive probe (“True”) after reading false (vs. true) sentences. Notably, participants also reacted more slowly to a positive probe after reading identity-threatening (vs. non-threatening) sentences. These results provide first evidence that identity-threatening information, just as false information, is detected at a very early stage of information processing and lends support to the notion of a routine, non-strategic identity-defense mechanism.

Possible causes for underachievement are low motivational dispositions (need for cognition) and metacognitive competences. This study tested the interplay of these variables longitudinally with gifted and non-gifted students from Germany (N = 341, 137 females) in Grades 6 (M = 12.02 years at t1) and 8 (M = 14.07 years). Declarative and procedural metacognitive competences were assessed in the domain of reading comprehension. Path analyses showed incremental effects of procedural metacognition over and above intelligence on the development of school achievement in gifted students (β = .139). Moreover, declarative metacognition and need for cognition interactively predicted procedural metacognition (β = .169), which mediated their effect on school achievement.

T1 - In welchen Branchen und für welche beruflichen Tätigkeiten werden Psychologinnen und Psychologen gesucht und was sollten sie können? : Eine systematische Inhaltsanalyse von Stellenanzeigen JF - Psychologische Rundschau N2 - Über die Struktur des Arbeitsmarkts für Psychologinnen und Psychologen, insbesondere über die quantitative Verteilung von Stellen auf verschiedene Beschäftigungsbereiche, berufliche Tätigkeiten, geforderte Kompetenzen und Abschlüsse, liegen keine zuverlässigen und aktuellen Informationen vor. Wir berichten die Ergebnisse einer systematischen Inhaltsanalyse von 2025 Stellenanzeigen, die im Zeitraum von jeweils einem Monat in den Jahren 2018 und 2020 in gängigen deutschen Online-Stellenbörsen veröffentlicht wurden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der Arbeitsmarkt für Psychologinnen und Psychologen äußerst vielfältig ist und eine große Bandbreite beruflicher Tätigkeiten im Gesundheits-‍, Bildungs- und Sozialwesen, der Wirtschaft, der Wissenschaft sowie bei Polizei, Justiz und Verwaltung umfasst. Die Psychotherapie war mit 35 % das größte Berufsfeld, während sich die Mehrzahl der Stellen auf berufliche Tätigkeiten verteilte, die sich in der Regel keinem einzelnen Fachgebiet der Psychologie zuordnen ließen. Für 27 % der ausgeschriebenen Stellen war eine Approbation erforderlich, und 28 % der Stellen waren befristet. Die Ergebnisse liefern wichtige Informationen für die Konzeption und professionsorientierte Gestaltung von psychologischen Studiengängen. N2 - No reliable and up-to-date information is available regarding the structure of the labor market for psychologists, including the quantitative distribution of jobs across different employment sectors, professional activities, required skills, and degrees. We report the results of a systematic content analysis of 2,025 job advertisements published on popular German online job boards during one month in 2018 and one month in 2020. The results show that the job market for psychologists is extremely diverse, with a wide range of professional activities in health, education, social services, business, academia as well as police, justice, and administration. Psychotherapy was the largest occupational field, comprising 35 % of the job advertisements, whereas most jobs were spread across a wide range of activities that generally could not be assigned to any single field of psychology. Licensure as a psychotherapist was required for 27 % of the advertised positions, and 28 % of the positions were temporary. The results provide important information for designing the curriculum of psychology programs at the university according to profession.
