Previous research has suggested that except for paranoid schizophrenics, similarity in diagnostic category has little effect on sociometric choice among patients. A sociometric study was conducted employing MMPI scales as well as diagnostic categories on 84 hospitalized psychiatric patients. When diagnostic labels from the patients' charts were used, results showed no relationship between socio...

These have been defined as ‘a collection of individual agents with freedom to act in ways that are not always totally predictable, and whose actions are interconnected so that one agent’s actions changes the context for other agent...
متن کاملChoice Overload and Simplicity Seeking
In settings such as investing for retirement or choosing a drug plan, individuals face a staggering number of options. In this paper, we analyze how an abundance of options influences which alternative is selected. We present both laboratory experiments and field data that confirm our theoretical prediction: larger choice sets induce a stronger preference for simple, easy-to-understand options....
متن کاملSociometric choice: a study in pupillary response.
Pupillary dilatation has recently been reported as a physiological measure of degree of attention paid to environmental stimuli (Hess & Polt, 1960, 1964). Hess and Polt's research has operationally defined one variable and has provided data that allows researchers to speculate about several others. This variable is interest-disinterest. The purpose of the present investigation was to examine th...
