Wilson + Ross (2011)
Created the … theory
Temporal self-appraisal
Wilson + Ross (2011)
Method: (2 groups)
Group 1: think of beginning of term self as farther in past
Group 2: think of beginning of term self as more recent
Wilson + Ross (2011)
Students asked to think of past self as further away…
Rated past self MORE NEGATIVELY
Wilson + Ross (2011)
Which group rated their past self more negatively?
Group asked to think of past self as farther
Wilson + Ross (2011)
Conclusion
Temporal distance acts as a …. for growth and positive change
Proxy
Wilson + Ross (2011)
Conclusion
….. acts as a proxy for growth and positive change
Temporal distance
Wilson + Ross (2011)
Temporal distance acts as a proxy for
Growth and positive change
Peetz + Wilson (2012)
Temporal landmarks can alter…
Perception of temporal landscape
Peetz + Wilson (2012)
If there is an intervening landmark, the temporal self is (2)
- Perceived as more distant
2. Perceived as less similar
Peetz + Wilson (2012)
Example of a temporal landmark
Major birthday
Temporal landmarks can result in greater
Psychological separation
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
Chronic illness provides a context of (2)
(1) Continuity
(2) Challenge to self-system
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
What was the RQ?
How is perceived temporal distance related to CI?
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
Who were the participants
Arthritis + IBD sample
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
What were the conditions
- 6 months is recent past
2. 6 months is distant past
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
What was the question asked to both conditions?
“What were you like back then?”
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
Findings (1)
Little difference in self-appraisal between ‘recent’ and ‘distant’ conditions!
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
Findings (temporal landmark)
Pps perceived 6 months ago as more distant if there as a Temporal Landmark
Sirois + Hirsch (2013)
Pps perceived 6 months ago as more distant if there was a
Temporal landmark
Sirois (2015) (CI + FSRH)
Neuroticism is associated with worse
FSRH
Sirois (2015) (CI + FSRH)
People with high agreeableness and low neuroticism can expect
To have better health
Sirois (2015) (CI + FSRH)
Why might low-neurotic people expect to have better health?
Positive health-related prospection
Hall et al., (2012)
Participants
Type 2 Diabetes
Hall et al., (2012)
RQ: Influence of TP on….(2)
Weight management behaviours (physical activity + dietary choice)
Hall et al., (2012)
Findings
Future TP was associated with (3)
- Better weight-management behaviours
- Less fatty food consumption
- Increased physical activity levels
Hall et al., (2012)
Findings
TP may facilitate weight-management behaviours by
Generating stronger motivation to perform them
Sirois (2015) (P + HT/CVD)
Findings
Procrastination increased risk of CVD/HT by
63%
Sirois (2015) (P + HT/CVD)
Procrastination ________ risk of CVD/HT by 63%
Increased
Sirois (2015) (P + HT/CVD)
_________ increased risk of CVD/HT risk by 63%
Procrastination
Sirois (2015) (P + HT/CVD)
For every 1pt increase in P, chances of having CVD/HT increased by
60%
Sirois (2015) (P + HT/CVD)
Aside from procrastination, there was also evidence of _______ in the HT/CVD sample
Maladaptive coping strategies
Sirois (2015) (P +HT/CVD)
Moderation-hypothesis posits 2 maladaptive coping strategies…
- Disengaging behaviourally
2. Consumption with self-blame
Sirois (2015) (P + HT/CVD)
________ within the Procrastination-Health model
Moderation hypothesis
Sirois (2015) (P + HT/CVD)
Indirect effects of maladaptive coping strategies were larger for the
HT/CVD sample
Wilson + Ross (2011)
Conclusion
Temporal distance acts as a proxy for growth and positive change
