The Relationship

Analysing the relationships between wisdom and time is increasingly becoming an important and interesting issue. The purpose of the study is empirical verification of the relationship between wisdom and the five categories of the temporal perspective: the positive past (PP), negative past (NP), hedonistic present (HP), fatalistic present (FP) and the future (F). It has been assumed that wisdom will positively correlate with the combination of three dimensions considered the balanced time perspective (past-positive, present-hedonistic, and future) and negatively correlated with the temporal profile considered less functional (past-negative and present-fatalistic perspective). The study has been conducted on a group of 279 Polish respondents, including 67% women, aged 16-28 (M=19.13; SD=3.01). The group has been composed of secondary school pupils and students. Two research tools were used: The Three-Dimensional Wisdom Scale (3D-WS) by Ardelt (2003), in Polish adaptation by Steuden, Brudek and Izebski (2006) and the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI-short version), adapted by Cybis, Rowiński and Przepiórka (2012). On the basis of the obtained results, it can be assumed that: 1) participants of the study characterised by general wisdom and its cognitive dimension do not focus on the FP and NP; 2) in case of the reflexive dimension of wisdom, the predictive function is performed by the NP, FP and, to a lesser extent, the PP; 3) the only predictors of the affective dimension of wisdom have turned out to be the FP and the F. The obtained results seem to have the theoretical and empirical justification. Individuals with lower scores on wisdom have expressed aversion to past events and have been convinced that they have no control over the present, and that what is happening is a result of capricious fate. Significant correlations of wisdom concern the negative temporal profile, both in the general dimension of wisdom and in relation to its individual dimensions.

The Relationship

The paper deals with the relationship between the characteristics of individual time perspective and the processes of self-regulation that affect the quality of life. The research features personal characteristics of people engaged in entrepreneurial activities. The author has conducted a comparative analysis of time perspective balance in relation to the styles of self-regulation in three groups: successful entrepreneurs, individuals who refuse to engage in entrepreneurial activities for various reasons, and individuals who keep failing to organize their own business. The obtained results have revealed that a balanced time perspective in combination with regulatory modeling and evaluation processes is necessary for successful business activity. If time perspective is unbalanced, it does not allow the individual to use their positive potential to the full, even if life regulation processes are well-developed.

Balanced Time Perspective

Background: A “balanced” time perspective has been suggested to have a positive influence on well-being: a sentimental and positive view of the past (high Past Positive), a less pessimistic attitude toward the past (low Past Negative), the desire of experiencing pleasure with slight concern for future consequences (high Present Hedonistic), a less fatalistic and hopeless view of the future (low Present Fatalistic), and the ability to find reward in achieving specific long-term goals (high Future). We used the affective profiles model (i.e., combinations of individuals’ experience of high/low positive/negative affectivity) to investigate differences between individuals in time perspective dimensions and to investigate if the influence of time perspective dimensions on well-being was moderated by the individual’s type of profile. Method: Participants (N = 720) answered to the Positive Affect Negative Affect Schedule, the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory and two measures of well-being: the Temporal Satisfaction With Life Scale and the Scales of Psychological Well-Being-short version. A Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) was conducted to identify differences in time perspective dimensions and well-being among affective profiles. Four Structural Equation Models (SEM) were used to investigate which time perspective dimensions predicted well-being for each profile. Results: Comparisons between individuals at the extreme of the affective profiles model suggested that individuals with a self-fulfilling profile (high positive/low negative affect) were characterized by a “balanced” time perspective and higher well-being compared to individuals with a self-destructive profile (low positive/high negative affect). However, a different pattern emerged when individuals who differed in one affect dimension but matched in the other were compared to each other. For instance, decreases in the past negative time perspective dimension lead to high positive affect when negative affect is high (i.e., self-destructive vs. high affective) but to low negative affect when positive affect was high (i.e., high affective vs. self-fulfilling). The moderation analyses showed, for example, that for individuals with a self-destructive profile, psychological well-being was significantly predicted by the past negative, present fatalistic and future time perspectives. Among individuals with a high affective or a self-fulfilling profile, psychological well-being was significantly predicted by the present fatalistic dimension. Conclusions: The interactions found here go beyond the postulation of a “balanced” time perspective being the only way of promoting well-being. Instead, it presents a more person-centered approach to achieve higher levels of emotional, cognitive, and psychological well-being.

The Relationship

The purpose of this study was to test the relationship between sport service quality and sport involvement. The data were collected from 500 individuals, users of sport facilities, in the city of Thessaloniki, Greece. Items from the SERVQUAL model were used to measure sport service quality. The three-dimensional model of leisure involvement was used to measure sport involvement (Centrality, Attraction and Self-expression). The results of the study revealed statistically signicant correlations between service quality and two of the three dimensions of sport involvement: centrality and self-expression, supporting the important role of service quality in developing sport policy. These results propose that policy makers should invest on building service quality in sport services and facilities, since this will increase sport participation levels and help citizens adopt a more active life-style.

The Relationship

<p>Recent research has focused on behavioral correlates of temporal perspective (TP), suggesting that this individual difference has an influence on many health-related behaviors such as smoking and substance use, physical activity or life satisfaction. It is suggested that a consistently biased temporal orientation is associated with some psychiatric disorders and mediated by personality factors. However, few studies have explored the relationship between personality and TP from a psychobiological approach. The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) and Zuckerman-Kuhlman Personality Questionnaire (ZKPQ) in a sample of 196 undergraduate students through a multiple regression analyses. Results showed that: Past-Negative correlated positively with Neuroticism-Anxiety and negatively with Activity; Present Hedonistic correlated positively with Impulsive-Sensation Seeking and Sociability in a very high degree; and Future correlated positively with Neuroticism-Anxiety and Activity, and negatively with Impulsive-Sensation Seeking. Results are discussed in terms of the definition of both scales, their relationships and their implications in applied fields.</p>

The Relationship

The article presents the relationship between temporal perspective and wisdom transmission of the people in late adulthood to the younger generation. The participants were asked to write a short “Letter to a grandchild”. The letters written by 119 participants aged over 60 years old were analyzed qualititavely in terms of content and form, using categories from previous studies (Dryll, Tokarska, Cierpka, 2016). In order to assess temporal perspective the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) by Philip G. Zimbardo and John Boyd was used (adaptation by Aneta Przepiórka, Małgorzata Sobol-Kwapińska and Tomasz Jankowski, 2016). A number of dependencies between transmission characteristics and temporal perspective scales was observed. The results follow a characteristic pattern where instead of the focus on timing (past, present, and future), an attitude (positive or negative) seems to be more important. The results do not support the concept of a balanced temporal perspective, which can be explained by cultural differences as well as developmental characteristics of the participants.

Practical Implications

University and academia are, due to its nature, its structure and its inside relationships, a perfect breeding ground for the conflicts, disputes, problems, and grievances. In these settings, mediation is one of the dispute resolution mechanisms most used by University Ombudsperson. However, the special characteristics of university contexts make it necessary to consider and evaluate elements that may have a bearing on the effectiveness of the process and outcomes of the mediation. In this paper a model of contingent intervention in mediation processes articulated in three dimensions is put forward: a) level of balance or symmetry of power between the parties involved; b) the foreseeable temporal perspective of the relationship between them; and c) level of formalization of the mediation process. Based on the interaction between the three dimensions, a series of proposals will be formulated in order to design different strategies of intervention for mediation processes in university settings. Practical implications of this contingent model and future research on this topic are discussed.

The Relationship

This paper analyzes the use of three dimensional spectral analyses. We highlight the power of this technique by examining the economic interrelationships between Pacific Basin countries, Tokyo, New York and London equity markets. To the best of our knowledge, no research in financial economics has ever employed the spectral technique with greater than two dimensions. Our use of three way spectral analysis, or partial coherence measures, allows us to ferret out the influence of correlated variables, in this case, major world markets (New York, London, Tokyo) before examining the relationship among the variables of primary interest, the Pacific Basin markets. WE hold constant the influence of New York, London, and Tokyo before examining the relationship among Pacific Basin Newly Industrialized countries equity indices to illustrate our methodology. Simulation techniques enable us to document the statistical power of our technique.
