TL;DR: In this article, it is argued that differences between individuals in functioning are not axiomatically interpreted as reflecting individual differences in the traditional sense, and that the difference between individuals described are seen as being relative to the one who is doing the describing.
Abstract: It is argued that we should distinguish between categories of description and that which is described. By making this distinction, we transcend the commonplace individual differences perspective in two ways. First, differences between individuals in functioning are not axiomatically interpreted as reflecting individual differences in the traditional sense. Secondly, the differences between individuals described are seen as being relative to the one who is doing the describing. In accordance with this, a description is given of the conception of learning underlying the model of description chosen to characterise learning from the learner's point of view. As far as the learner is concerned, the way in which he conceptualises learning, the way in which he experiences the learning situation and the way in which he performs the learning task are seen as three different aspects of his idea of learning and hence they appear to be logically related to each other. The distinction between relations, which ...

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how often adult friends see each other and how social and demographic characteristics of both members in a friendship affect their contact frequency, finding that friends with similar characteristics saw each other more than status-dissimilar ones do.
Abstract: This paper examines how often adult friends see each other. These questions are addressed: How do social and demographic characteristics of both members in a friendship affect their contact frequency? Do friends with similar characteristics see each other more than status-dissimilar ones do? Do friends who have known each other a long time or who live near each other get together more than recent or distant friends? Does deep affection increase contact? The first and last questions involve characteristics of both members; the second and third, characteristics of the dyad itself. Prior research on adult friendship has emphasized an egocentric perspective: interviewed people (egos) name their best friends (alters) and report on activities with those friends. In data analysis, ego's characteristics are used to predict the friendship behaviors. This is clearly one-sided; a friendship is intrinsically dyadic and depends on both people for its formation and maintenance. A dyadic perspective becomes possible if egos are asked about characteristics of their friends, or the friends are located and interviewed. Then, features of both ego and alter can be used to predict friendship behaviors. Dyadic models are more faithful to reality and are preferable.

TL;DR: For structural-developmental psychology to be useful in investigating the relationship between adolescent development and family interaction, its perspective must be expanded to include the role of affect and of cognitively inhibiting behaviors in producing environments for development as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of experiments was conducted to assess the influence of self-directed attention on the ability to take another's perspective, and the results indicated that self-awareness lessened the tendency of subjects within a group to “overattribute” responsibility for the group product to oneself.

TL;DR: A conceptual framework for interpreting linguistic approaches to the study of educational events and processes is presented in this article, followed by an examination of the methodological issues associated with these kinds of linguistic analyses.
Abstract: A conceptual framework for interpreting linguistic approaches to the study of educational events and processes is presented. This is followed by an examination of the methodological issues associated with these kinds of linguistic analyses. Finally, some representative findings from recent linguistic studies are presented. These three sections answer the question: What is meant by a linguistic perspective to teaching and learning processes? This relatively new and different perspective about classrooms and schools helps further our understanding of what is communicated to whom in educational settings—an enduring problem in social psychology and psycholinguistics.
TL;DR: Career counselors may find a systems perspective and strategies beneficial for the indecisive adult client who seems to be drowning in a sea of possibilities as discussed by the authors, which may be beneficial for a person who wants to be able to make decisions.

TL;DR: Central African and Japanese outlooks on the person differ profoundly from one another as discussed by the authors. But they have in common a perspective on the human person shared by most non-Western societies and cultures: they emphasize the contextual, relational nature of personhood.
Abstract: Central African and Japanese outlooks on the person differ profoundly from one another. But they have in common a perspective on the human person shared by most non-Western societies and cultures: they emphasize the contextual, relational nature of personhood. This way of looking at the person, and our own individual-oriented and legalistic perspective on the person, carry different sets of meanings, fulfillments, and strains for the individuals and groups who live within these frameworks.
