Journal Abstracts in Psychology

 

Abstract. 

The abstract is a brief summary of the contents of a journal article. Abstracts for research studies include the context of the study, purpose, procedures, and key results. Different journals have different word limits for the abstract. Abstracts for other types of articles should clearly communicate a few major points about the concepts, principles, or variables in the article.

Some professors require students to include an abstract with their papers. Guidelines for writing abstracts can be found in the APA Style Manual.

Word limits can range from 120 to 250.

After the title, the abstract is the key to element of an article to help researchers decide on reading an article or not. The best abstracts draw attention to a few major concepts, principles, or variables covered in the article.

Affect, Emotions, Mood in Psychology

 

Psychologists have used the term affect to refer to the present experience of emotion or feeling. Affect is often contrasted with mood, which refers to an emotional state over a longer period of time, such as feeling happy or sad or angry most days.

Affect, emotions, and mood are the "E" dimension in the four functional components (COPE) of the SCOPES model of human functioning used in organizing assessment and psychotherapy planning. Emotions are complex feeling states linked to physiological (P) responses, thoughts or cognitions (C), and usually represented in Observable Behaviour (O). Our Self (S) varies in awareness of our emotions. And our emotions vary with our Social context (S), especially the people present in the context.

Organizational Trust

Organizational trust depends on the relationship between at least two entities one of which is an organization. The other entity may be another organization, employees, customers, contractors, or anyone interacting with the organization.

Writing in Forbes, Kohler (2021) described trust this way:

"Organizational trust is a complicated relationship. It's the willingness of employees to be vulnerable to the actions of their leaders. When we decide if we trust a leader, we're assessing his or her competency, benevolence, and integrity."

For data on trust see the Edelman Trust Barometer.

For a measure of trust, See the Organizational Trust Index.
