This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together leading scholars from around the world to provide their most influential thinking on instructional feedback. The chapters range from academic, in-depth reviews of the research on instructional feedback to a case study on how feedback altered the life-course of one author. Furthermore, it features critical subject areas - including mathematics, science, music, and even animal training - and focuses on working at various developmental levels of learners. The affective, non-cognitive aspects of feedback are also targeted; such as how learners react emotionally to receiving feedback. The exploration of the theoretical underpinnings of how feedback changes the course of instruction leads to practical advice on how to give such feedback effectively in a variety of diverse contexts. Anyone interested in researching instructional feedback, or providing it in their class or course, will discover why, when, and where instructional feedback is effective and how best to provide it.

Download or read book Managing Emotions in the Workplace written by Neal M. Ashkanasy and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern workplace is often thought of as cold and rational, as no place for the experience and expression of emotions. Yet it is no more emotionless than any other aspect of life. Individuals bring their affective states and emotional "buttons" to work, leaders try to engender feelings of passion and enthusiasm for the organization and its mission, and consultants seek to increase job satisfaction, commitment, and trust. This book advances the understanding of the causes and effects of emotions at work and extends existing theories to consider implications for the management of emotions. The international cast of authors examines the practical issues raised when organizations are studied as places where emotions are aroused, suppressed, used, and avoided. This book also joins the debate on how organizations and individuals ought to manage emotions in the workplace. Managing Emotions in the Workplace is designed for use in graduate level courses in Organizational Behavior, Human Resource Management, or Organizational Development - any course in which the role of emotions in the workplace is a central concern. Scholars and consultants will also find this book to be an essential resource on the latest theory and practice in this emerging field.
Download or read book Effects of Induced Mood on Task Performance written by Robert Jeffrey Melton and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent research has indicated that people in a good mood tend to perform better on creativity or divergent thinking tasks and worse on tasks requiring systematic, analytic thinking than do people in other moods. Hypotheses regarding the processes underlying these effects can be grouped into those that propose that mood influences performance by affecting what is retrieved from memory and those that propose that mood influences performance because it affects the performer's motivation. The primary goal of the present project was to ascertain whether the effects were better accounted for by retrieval or motivational explanations. The tasks used in the experiments were the Remote Associates Test, on which performance was enhanced by a positive mood induction in previous research, and syllogisms, which are similar to tasks on which people in a positive mood have done relatively poorly in previous research. No significant relationship was obtained between mood condition (positive or neutral) and performance on Remote Associates Test items. Thus, explanations for previous findings that positive mood enhances performance on that and similar tasks could not be tested. Positive mood subjects performed significantly worse on the syllogisms than control subjects. Positive mood subjects were significantly more likely than control subjects to choose universal ("All A are C" or "No A are C") rather than particular ("Some A are C" or "Some A are not C") conclusions as their answers, were somewhat less likely to diagram the relationships among the premises, and were somewhat more likely to select an answer consistent with the atmosphere heuristic. Moreover, subjects spent considerably less time, on average, than was allotted for the syllogisms, with positive mood subjects spending somewhat less time than controls. Thus, in general, these results were more consistent with motivational accounts of the observed performance decrement than with retrieval accounts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current study aimed to determine the effect of both negative and positive mood on working memory (WM). Using a sample of undergraduates (N = 104), we investigated three specific topics: 1) if differences in trait affect and induced mood revealed specific impairments in WM; 2) the interplay between trait affect, induced mood, and dynamic adjustments in cognitive control; 3) the impact of baseline WM capacity on emotion manipulation and subsequent task performance. Participants completed one of three (Positive, Neutral, or Negative) 10-minute mood induction phases prior to a WM delayed-recognition task. Demand levels (high vs. low) of WM maintenance (memory load of 2 items vs. 1 item) and delay-spanning distractor interference (confusable vs. not confusable with memoranda) were manipulated using a factorial design during the task. The effect of positive mood on overall performance demonstrated an interaction between trait positive affect (PA) and induced mood. The interaction indicated that individuals with high (vs. low) trait PA performed worse when induced into a Happy mood and performed better than individuals with low PA when induced into a Sad mood. Also, trait PA was associated with decreased interference effects across all mood conditions. The effect of negative affect on WM performance was specific to the Neutral mood condition, and was associated with increased interference demand effects. Previous trial-based analyses indicated that both positive and negative affect do not significantly moderate WM demand-triggered dynamic adjustments in cognitive control. Finally, WMC did not significantly predict either change in emotion during the mood induction procedure, or level of performance on the delayed-recognition task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This informative volume presents the first comprehensive review of research and theory on dual-process models of social information processing. These models distinguish between qualitatively different modes of information processing in making decisions and solving problems (e.g., associative versus rule-based, controlled versus uncontrolled, and affective versus cognitive modes). Leading contributors review the basic assumptions of these approaches and review the ways they have been applied and tested in such areas as attitudes, stereotyping, person perception, memory, and judgment. Also examined are the relationships between different sets of processing modes, the factors that determine their utilization, and how they work in combination to affect responses to social information.
