“…However, AATI-TA scores were meaningfully related to several time constructs (e.g., state hope, perceived life chances, optimism, expectation of future success) and to other important constructs (e.g., global self-esteem, perceived stress). Alansari et al (2013) reported similar findings; they found that AATI-TA scores were not related to academic achievement, cutting school, and academic self-ranking, but the scores were related to attitudes to school and teacher. In Cole et al's (2017) study of British adults, AATI-TA scores on the positive subscales were negatively related to anxiety and depression (-.41 ≤ r ≤ .23), scores on the negative subscales were positively related to depression (.25 ≤ r ≤ .41), but no scores were associated with problematic alcohol use (-.11 ≤ r ≤ .13).…”

“…Zimbardo and Boyd (1999) reported meaningful correlations between time perspective subscales and several psychological constructs, including aggression, depression, emotional stability, ego control, and trait anxiety, among other constructs. Meaningful associations have also been found with variables related to educational achievement and psychological well being in studies in Germany, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States (Alansari et al, 2013;Buhl & Lindner, 2009;McKay et al, 2016;Worrell & Mello, 2009).…”

“…We hypothesized that (a) AATI-TA Slovenian scores would be internally consistent with estimates of .70 or higher and (b) that the six-factor model supported in other national contexts (e.g., Alansari et al, 2013;Buhl & Lindner, 2009;Chisima et al, 2016;McKay et al, 2015;Şahin-Baltaci et al, 2017;Worrell et al, 2013) would yield the best fit to the data with fit indices in the acceptable range or higher. With regard to concurrent validity, we hypothesized that positive time attitude subscales would have statistically and practically significant positive correlations with the Positivity Scale and that negative subscales would have statistically and practically significant negative correlations with the Positivity Scale (Caprara et al, 2012).…”

“…Several profiles have been found, including Positives, Optimists, Balanced, Ambivalents, Negatives, and Pessimists. Importantly, individuals with different profiles differ meaningfully on outcomes, with more positive profiles associated with more adaptive outcomes, including life satisfaction, mental health, and academic success (Alansari et al, 2013;Andretta et al, 2014;Buhl & Lindner, 2009;Cole et al, 2017;McKay, Percy, Cole, Worrell, & Andretta, 2016;Prow, Worrell, Andretta, & Mello, 2016. These differences across profiles have been found in Germany, New Zealand, the UK, and the US.…”

Abstract:In the present study, we examined the psychometric properties of scores on the newly developed Slovenian version of the Adolescent and Adult Time Inventory-Time Attitudes Scale (AATI-TA) in a sample of 182 Slovenian adolescents. The 30-item AATI-TA assesses positive and negative attitudes towards the past, present, and the future. Time attitudes are particularly important in adolescence due to their association with various educational and psychological outcomes. The AATI-TA is a robust instrument and AATI-TA scores have already been validated in several national contexts worldwide. Due to language differences between Slovene and English, a 24-item version of the AATI-TA was examined in Slovenia. As hypothesized, scores on the 24-item Slovenian version of AATI-TA were internally consistent and structurally valid. Moreover, meaningful correlations between time attitudes and positivity, a basic disposition determining individual well-being, provided evidence of concurrent validity. The results suggest that the Slovenian version of the AATI-TA will be useful in Slovenian research examining time attitudes. Povzetek: V raziskavi smo ugotavljali psihometrične značilnosti slovenske različice inštrumenta Inventar o času za mladostnike in odrasle -Lestvica stališč do časa (AATI-TA) na vzorcu 182 slovenskih mladostnikov. Lestvica vsebuje pozitivna in negativna stališča do preteklosti, sedanjosti in prihodnosti. Ta stališča so še posebej pomembna za obdobje mladostništva, saj so povezana z različnimi izobraževalnimi in psihološkimi izidi. AATI-TA je robusten instrument, ki je že bil validiran v različnih nacionalnih kontekstih po vsem svetu. Kot je bilo predpostavljeno, so bili slovenski rezultati notranje konsistentni in strukturno veljavni. Lestvica stališč je izkazala tudi ustrezno sočasno veljavnost, saj se je pokazala smiselna povezanost med stališči do časa in pozitivnostjo; slednja je opredeljena kot dispozicija, ki določa posameznikovo blagostanje. Rezultati kažejo, da bo slovenska različica AATI-TA koristen inštrument za raziskovanje stališč do časa.

Transitioning to adulthood is a fundamental yet challenging phase in human development. Despite its relevance, the literature has paid little attention to the impact that transitioning to adulthood has on multiple aspects of individual well‐being. This is one of the few attempts that has employed a sequential explanatory mixed‐methods study to explore how the path to adulthood impacted on the psychological and overall well‐being of Italian young adults. In the quantitative phase, we employed two‐step cluster analysis to assign 45 young adults, who had completed the Italian I COPPE scale of multidimensional well‐being, to three clusters based on their level of change in psychological and overall well‐being. Results from mixed design ANCOVA revealed that participants belonging to the high change cluster showed the highest significant positive change over time with respect to well‐being. In the qualitative phase, 17 individuals took part in focalized narrative interviews, which aimed at exploring significant events, barriers, and facilitators, which had impacted on their well‐being during the transition to adulthood. The textual material was analysed through the Grounded Theory Methodology. It emerged that the state of transition was associated with some triggering events and a temporary negative impact on the interviewees' well‐being. However, findings also revealed that people assigned to different clusters had put in place or learned several resources, skills, and copying strategies, which led to different transitional and well‐being outcomes.

Teacher–student relationships, psychological need satisfaction, and happiness among diverse students

Teacher–student relationships have been linked to autonomous motivation and achievement. However, relatively little is known about whether satisfying students’ psychological needs mediates the association between teacher–student relationships and student happiness. Furthermore, this relationship needs to be examined in samples of students from different ethnic and racial backgrounds. In this structural equation modeling study (N = 1,961), we found that teacher–student relationships were positively and moderately associated with the satisfaction of psychological needs for autonomy, relatedness, and competence. Satisfying psychological needs, in turn, was moderately positively associated with happiness. These findings held across African American, Asian American, and Latinx subsamples. For the overall sample, students in higher grade levels perceived that their psychological needs were met to a lesser degree than students in earlier grades. However, only the Latinx subsample replicated this effect. Teacher–student relationships may promote happiness via meeting psychological needs.
