EFFECTS OF AGE ON DETECTION OF EMOTION 2
Abstract
Age differences were examined in affective processing, in the context of a visual search task.
Young and older adults were faster to detect high arousal images compared with low arousal and
neutral items. Younger adults were faster to detect positive high arousal targets compared with
other categories. In contrast, older adults exhibited an overall detection advantage for emotional
images compared with neutral images. Together, these findings suggest that older adults do not
display valence-based effects on affective processing at relatively automatic stages.
Keywords: aging, attention, information processing, emotion, visual search

Frequently, people encounter situations in their environment in which it is impossible to
attend to all available stimuli. It is therefore of great importance for one’s attentional processes to
select only the most salient information in the environment to which one should attend. Previous
research has suggested that emotional information is privy to attentional selection in young
adults (e.g.,

The Effects of Electronic Media Devices on the Quality of Sleep

The Effects of Electronic Media Devices on the Quality of Sleep
Today, the world sees a shift due to the existing communication technologies that have resulted in a trend where young and old are continually using their devices for various purposes such as communication and browsing. Browsing probably would benefit from a definition or description. Young users are continually using the devices even during their sleep time leading to a question whether the trend has a notable effect on their quality of sleep. This implies that adults are responsible users. There are various researchers that have attempted to evaluate the relationship between the continued use of the devices and the quality of sleep. There is a notable impact that is not necessarily strong where young and adolescent of the devices showed low quality sleep and more frequent sleeping problems. This sentence would benefit from being reworded.
A study carried out in 2014 that involved 1287 learners aged between 12 and 18 years indicated that children who are frequent media users reported more sleeping problems than children who are not (King, Delfabbro, Zwaans & Kaptsis, 2014). The study showed that the problems may vary from one child to the other depending on age and the frequency of media use. The study did not point out the exact reasons behind the findings, but the results resonate with a study carried out in 2015 that reported that adolescents and preadolescents using the devices past 9 pm experienced sleeping problems. The continued use of the media devices past 9 pm impacted the sleep quality among young adolescents (Bruni, Settee, Fontanesi, Baiocco, Laghi & Baumgartner, 2015). This can be cited as Bruni et al. The participants did not have enough sleep, which is one of the primary reasons why the quality of sleep was affected. The two studies noted that there is a need for younger individuals to have enough sleep, thus all distractions must be eliminated.
Further, a 2017 study showed that children who do not use media and communication devices had better sleep quality and duration of sleep than who continually used the devices (Dube, Khan, Loehr, Chu & Veugelers, 2017). The quality of sleep is dependent on the duration of sleep and children without the devices are likely to sleep for the recommended time. Is this information derived from the cited study? If so, that needs to be clearer.The study also raised the sleep duration issue where the devices prevent the young learners from having enough sleep. Additionally, some of the users suffer ...

Research Question
What factors lead to depression in early childhood?
Font should be bigger
What is Depression?
-A serious medical illness that affects how one feels, thinks, and act
-Feelings of sadness about life and losing interest in previous activities
-Continues for months or years
Should include a scientific reference in APA format
What is Depression?
History of Depression
Depression was initially called ‘melancholia’(BC Mesapotamia)
Mental illnesses were attributed to demonic possession and treated by priests
Hippocrates proposed that mental illnesses were related to imbalance of hormones in the body
During the Renaissance, people were executed for mental illness but doctors believed Hippocrates who asserted that mental illness was due to natural causes
In the 18th and 19th centuries, people believed depression was inherited and that those with illnesses should be locked up
Symptoms of depression
Irritability
Feelings of sadness
Social withdrawal
Increased sensitivity to rejection
Change in appetite and sleep
Outbursts and difficulty concentrating

Paths of Wellbeing on Self-Organizing Maps + excerpts from other presentationsTimo Honkela
In this presentation in WSOM 2012 conference, we introduce the concept of pathways of wellbeing
and examine how such paths can be discovered from large data
sets using the self-organizing map. Data sets used in the illustrative experiments
include measurements of physical fitness and subjective assessments
related to diagnosing work stress. In addition, we show results from related projects.

We review new findings and new theoretical developments
in the field of intelligence. New findings include the follow-
ing: (a) Heritability of IQ varies significantly by social
class. (b) Almost no genetic polymorphisms have been
discovered that are consistently associated with variation
in IQ in the normal range. (c) Much has been learned
about the biological underpinnings of intelligence. (d)
“Crystallized” and “fluid” IQ are quite different aspects of
intelligence at both the behavioral and biological levels.
(e) The importance of the environment for IQ is established
by the 12-point to 18-point increase in IQ when children
are adopted from working-class to middle-class homes. (f)
Even when improvements in IQ produced by the most
effective early childhood interventions fail to persist, there
can be very marked effects on academic achievement and
life outcomes. (g) In most developed countries studied,
gains on IQ tests have continued, and they are beginning in
the developing world. (h) Sex differences in aspects of
intelligence are due partly to identifiable biological factors
and partly to socialization factors. (i) The IQ gap between
Blacks and Whites has been reduced by 0.33 SD in recent
years. We report theorizing concerning (a) the relationship
between working memory and intelligence, (b) the appar-
ent contradiction between strong heritability effects on IQ
and strong secular effects on IQ, (c) whether a general
intelligence factor could arise from initially largely inde-
pendent cognitive skills, (d) the relation between self-reg-
ulation and cognitive skills, and (e) the effects of stress on
intelligence.
Keywords: intelligence, fluid and crystallized intelligence,

In 1994, a controversial book about intelligence byRichard Herrnstein and Charles Murray called The BellCurve was published. The book argued that IQ tests are
an accurate measure of intelligence; that IQ is a strong
predictor of school and career achievement; that IQ is
highly heritable; that IQ is little influenced by environmen-
tal factors; that racial differences in IQ are likely due at
least in part, and perhaps in large part, to genetics; that
environmental effects of all kinds have only a modest effect

Browsing probably would benefit from a definition or description. Young users are continually using the devices even during their sleep time leading to a question whether the trend has a notable effect on their quality of sleep. This implies that adults are responsible users. There are various researchers that have attempted to evaluate the relationship between the continued use of the devices and the quality of sleep. There is a notable impact that is not necessarily strong where young and adolescent of the devices showed low quality sleep and more frequent sleeping problems. This sentence would benefit from being reworded.
A study carried out in 2014 that involved 1287 learners aged between 12 and 18 years indicated that children who are frequent media users reported more sleeping problems than children who are not (King, Delfabbro, Zwaans & Kaptsis, 2014). The study showed that the problems may vary from one child to the other depending on age and the frequency of media use. The study did not point out the exact reasons behind the findings, but the results resonate with a study carried out in 2015 that reported that adolescents and preadolescents using the devices past 9 pm experienced sleeping problems. The continued use of the media devices past 9 pm impacted the sleep quality among young adolescents (Bruni, Settee, Fontanesi, Baiocco, Laghi & Baumgartner, 2015). This can be cited as Bruni et al. The participants did not have enough sleep, which is one of the primary reasons why the quality of sleep was affected. The two studies noted that there is a need for younger individuals to have enough sleep, thus all distractions must be eliminated.
Further, a 2017 study showed that children who do not use media and communication devices had better sleep quality and duration of sleep than who continually used the devices (Dube, Khan, Loehr, Chu & Veugelers, 2017). The quality of sleep is dependent on the duration of sleep and children without the devices are likely to sleep for the recommended time. Is this information derived from the cited study? If so, that needs to be clearer.The study also raised the sleep duration issue where the devices prevent the young learners from having enough sleep. Additionally, some of the users suffer ...

What is Depression?
History of Depression
Depression was initially called ‘melancholia’(BC Mesapotamia)
Mental illnesses were attributed to demonic possession and treated by priests
Hippocrates proposed that mental illnesses were related to imbalance of hormones in the body
During the Renaissance, people were executed for mental illness but doctors believed Hippocrates who asserted that mental illness was due to natural causes
In the 18th and 19th centuries, people believed depression was inherited and that those with illnesses should be locked up
Symptoms of depression
Irritability
Feelings of sadness
Social withdrawal
Increased sensitivity to rejection
Change in appetite and sleep
Outbursts and difficulty concentrating

Title: Understanding the developmental interrelations among symptoms of anxiety, depression, and conduct problems during early childhood
Hypothesis: Co-occurrence between anxiety, depression and conduct problems: causes or consequences?
The sample was a group of 2,000 children between the ages of 3-10
The researcher used data from the SOFIA study( Social and Physical Development, Int.
Paths of Wellbeing on Self-Organizing Maps + excerpts from other presentationsTimo Honkela
In this presentation in WSOM 2012 conference, we introduce the concept of pathways of wellbeing
and examine how such paths can be discovered from large data
sets using the self-organizing map. Data sets used in the illustrative experiments
include measurements of physical fitness and subjective assessments
related to diagnosing work stress. In addition, we show results from related projects.

New Findings and Theoretical Developments
Richard E. Nisbett University of Michigan

William Dickens Northeastern University
James Flynn University of Otago
Diane F. Halpern Claremont McKenna College
Eric Turkheimer University of Virginia
We review new findings and new theoretical developments
in the field of intelligence. New findings include the follow-
ing: (a) Heritability of IQ varies significantly by social
class. (b) Almost no genetic polymorphisms have been
discovered that are consistently associated with variation
in IQ in the normal range. (c) Much has been learned
about the biological underpinnings of intelligence. (d)
“Crystallized” and “fluid” IQ are quite different aspects of
intelligence at both the behavioral and biological levels.
(e) The importance of the environment for IQ is established
by the 12-point to 18-point increase in IQ when children
are adopted from working-class to middle-class homes. (f)
Even when improvements in IQ produced by the most
effective early childhood interventions fail to persist, there
can be very marked effects on academic achievement and
life outcomes. (g) In most developed countries studied,
gains on IQ tests have continued, and they are beginning in
the developing world. (h) Sex differences in aspects of
intelligence are due partly to identifiable biological factors
and partly to socialization factors. (i) The IQ gap between
Blacks and Whites has been reduced by 0.33 SD in recent
years. We report theorizing concerning (a) the relationship
between working memory and intelligence, (b) the appar-
ent contradiction between strong heritability effects on IQ
and strong secular effects on IQ, (c) whether a general
intelligence factor could arise from initially largely inde-
pendent cognitive skills, (d) the relation between self-reg-
ulation and cognitive skills, and (e) the effects of stress on
intelligence.
Keywords: intelligence, fluid and crystallized intelligence,
environmental and genetic influences, heritability, race and
sex differences
In 1994, a controversial book about intelligence byRichard Herrnstein and Charles Murray called The BellCurve was published. The book argued that IQ tests are
an accurate measure of intelligence; that IQ is a strong
predictor of school and career achievement; that IQ is
highly heritable; that IQ is little influenced by environmen-
tal factors; that racial differences in IQ are likely due at
least in part, and perhaps in large part, to genetics; that
environmental effects of all kinds have only a modest effect
on IQ; and that educational and other interventions have
little impact on IQ and little effect on racial differences in
IQ. The authors were skeptical about the ability of public
policy initiatives to have much impact on IQ or IQ-related
outcomes.
The Bell Curve sold more than 300,000 copies and
was given enormous attention by the press, which was

The Effect of Prolonged Attachment to Transitional Object on Anxiety Level and Sleep in Undergraduat
1. The Effect of Prolonged
Attachment to Transitional
Object on Anxiety Level and
Sleep Quality in Undergraduate
Students
Presented by
Meng Yie, Si Toh
4. (Bandura, 1977)
• Imitation: mimics behaviour of siblings
• Showing the child that he or she are going to sleep
together with the object.
(Markt & Johnson, 1992)
5. Age of TOs Utilization
• the attachment to TO fades away after losing its
comforting role (Winnicott, 1971).
• about half of children in a previous study kept
their TOs until the age of 9 (Sherman, Hertzig,
Austrian, & Shapiro, 1981).
• emotional connection towards an object did not
fade away easily, may even continue until
adulthood (Pappas, 2010).
6. Anxiety
• type of emotion with
– tense feeling
– worried thoughts
– increased blood pressure
(APA, n.d.)
7. TOs and Anxiety
• functions as comforter that helps relieve
anxiety
(Passman & Weisberg, 1975; Passman, 1976;
Passman, 1977; Markt & Johnson, 1992;
Mikulincer, Orbach & Iavnieli, 1998)
8. Sleep Quality
• measurement of sleep:
– total sleep time (TST),
– sleep onset latency (SOL),
– degree of fragmentation,
– total wake time,
– sleep efficiency,
– sleep disruptive events: natural arousals or
apnea
(Buysse, Reynolds III, Monk, Berman, & Kupfer, 1988;
Krystal & Edinger, 2008).
9. TOs and Sleep
• promote sleep
(Boniface & Graham, 1979; Mahalski, 1983; Markt &
Johnson, 1992)
• no research finding - TOs & sleep quality
10. Why?
• research interest - on interventions to
reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality
of students.
• medicines found to be unstable over its
effectiveness (Sleep Health Foundation,
2011).
11. Research Question
• Does the prolonged use of TO until
adulthood with different anxiety level affect
sleep quality?
12. Hypotheses
• Individuals that have higher anxiety level
with current attachment to TOs have better
sleep quality as compared to those without
any attachment to TOs.
• Individuals with or without attachment to
TOs who scores lower in anxiety scale
have better sleep quality as compared to
those who scores higher.
18. Procedure
• researcher’s email address was shared on
facebook.
• PIS and PCF were sent to the
respondents which required them to sign
and email it back.
• survey link was then given.
• email back to thank them for their
participation.
21. Between-subject Anova
• no significant effect
– anxiety level on sleep quality, F(3, 44) =
1.75, p > .05
–the usage of TO on sleep quality, F(1,
44) = 1.12, p > .05
–interaction effect did not approach
significance as well, F < 1.
22. Figure 1. Means of sleep quality with
anxiety level and the usage of TO.
23. Multiple Regression
• linear regression
– utilization of TO on sleep quality, ignoring the
mediator, was significant, b = -.75, t(50) = -
2.24, p < .05.
• multinomial logistic regression
– use of TO on anxiety level, not significant,
X2(3) = 3.05, p > .05.
24. Discussion
• both hypotheses were not supported.
• small sample size, only 64 participants.
– previous research based on 185
undergraduate students: people with
increased levels of anxiety sleep better with
the aids of inanimate objects (Markt &
Johnson, 1992).
25. Further Implications
• contact with their TOs during sleep.
– the pleasant feelings developed through
contacting with TOs may improve sleep
quality (Markt & Johnson,1992) .
• transform to experimental design, perhaps
with the use a sleep centre or EEG-based
screening.
26. Conclusion
• lack of research about TOs in a variety of
populations.
• the relationship between TOs and mental
health on different populations employing
a variety of mental health measurements.
