- W2322857967 abstract "This thesis seeks to add to the psychological literature that may help reduceglobal poverty and human rights abuse around the world. More specifically, itinvestigates the potential role of psychological flexibility and Acceptance andCommitment Therapy (ACT) in helping to increase “global freedoms”. It makes aunique contribution through the way it applies psychological flexibility and ACT to thisnovel area.Following two introductory chapters, the next five describe the design andpreliminary evaluation of new self-report measures. Specifically these assess: i. helpingbehaviour, ii. thoughts and cognitions, iii. feelings and emotions, and iv. values – allrelated to global freedoms. A fifth scale measures psychological inflexibility in aneveryday context. Preliminary psychometric development includes both exploratory andconfirmatory factor analysis.Following their development, the measures are used to answer five researchquestions. In general terms these explore the interrelationships between the measures;how they relate to helping behaviour and whether psychological flexibility plays a director indirect role in this. The research questions are answered using a cross-sectionaldataset as well as a single session, lab based study which examines the potential of anACT based intervention to increase helping behaviour.In summary, in both correlations and regressions, the thoughts and cognitionsmeasure had a significant, negative correlation with helping behaviour, while thefeelings and emotions, and values measure had significant, positive correlations withhelping behaviour. Psychological flexibility did not show a significant, directrelationship with helping behaviour but, in mediation analyses, it was found to transmitits influence through thoughts and cognitions onto helping behaviour. In terms of thesingle session lab based study, neither ACT nor an education condition increased thelevel of donation to charity greater than a control. The general discussion focuses on theimplications of these findings and the opportunities for future research." @default.
