“…Lastly, since elevated correlations mainly involved control variables, I performed my data analyses with and without control variables, which did not affect the pattern of my results. Lastly, recent simulation studies showed that multicollinearity does not bias fixed and random parameter estimates in multilevel modelling analyses (Yu, Jiang, & Land, 2015). In conclusion, I am confident that multicollinearity did not adversely affect my study findings.…”

“…Methodologically, upon closer examination of my correlation (Yu et al, 2015), I took several precautions to rule out the possibility of multicollinearity altogether. From a theoretical perspective, I would expect a high correlation between both positive as well as negative affect and creativity (Baas et al, 2008), which provides justification towards the reported association between positive and negative affectivity with general creative process engagement (CPE) as well as general creative performance (CP).…”

“…Similarly, there is a theoretical basis to expect a correlation between epistemic motivation and creativity (Feist, 1998;Gocłowska et al, 2014;van Kleef et al, 2012), an association I observe in my dataset regarding weekly creative process engagement and weekly creative performance. The existence of a theoretical rationale for the magnitude and directionality of my correlations should therefore lower the possibility that multicollinearity represents an issue in my dataset (Yu et al, 2015). Second, I centered all study variables, which both facilitates the interpretation of results and alleviates concerns regarding multicollinearity (Bell & Jones, 2015;Hofmann & Gavin, 1998 for an example of cross-day diary studies).…”

“…As the field investigation of another type of emotional inconsistency (e.g., between anger and disappointment) would necessitate the construction of another measurement scale, the approach to scale development and validation described in Chapter 7 as well as Chapter 8 could act as a blueprint for such future research endeavors. (Yu et al, 2015), I took several precautions to rule out the possibility of multicollinearity altogether. Drawing from the literature on affect and creativity, I would expect a high correlation between both positive as well as negative affect and creativity (Baas et al, 2008), which provides justification towards the reported association between positive and negative affectivity with general creative process engagement (CPE) as well as general creative performance (CP).…”

Doctor of Philosophy 2016 THESIS SUMMARYBased on a review of the literatures pertaining to leadership, affect, and creative performance, the studies conducted as part of this thesis aim at testing a research model that examines how and under which conditions leader emotional inconsistency between happiness and anger is related to follower creative performance. For an experimental test of the proposed research model I collected data from 94 followers for whom a leader-follower interaction was simulated using a video manipulation. Moderated mediation analyses revealed that leader emotional inconsistency was positively associated with follower creative performance via increases in creative process engagement, but only for followers with high levels of epistemic motivation, which sheds light on the importance of follower's information processing capabilities when faced with complex emotional leadership. I replicated the results of the first study in a second experiment where a leader-follower interaction was simulated using a scenario manipulation. Using data collected from 81 followers, moderated mediation analyses showed that leader displays of emotional inconsistency were positively related to creative performance via increases in creative process engagement for followers with high levels of epistemic motivation. Both experimental studies provide evidence towards the directionality of the examined interrelationships across different types of experimental manipulations employed. Finally, I replicated the research model of this thesis in a field setting using a measurement scale of leader emotional inconsistency specifically developed for this study. Week-level data was collected from 60 leader-follower dyads working in two organisations and providing a total of 253 matched weekly leader and follower responses. Multilevel moderated mediation analyses showed that follower weekly creative performance follows from weekly leader displays of emotional inconsistency via increases in weekly creative process engagement for followers with high epistemic motivation. Taken together, the studies conducted provide both internal and external validity to the theoretically derived research model of this thesis.Keywords: Leader emotional inconsistency; happiness; anger; creative process engagement; creative performance; epistemic motivation; experiment; diary study; multilevel research; EASI theory 3 DEDICATION Kedves Tatámnak, nyugodj békében.To my dear grandpa, may you rest in peace.Szász Mihály (1925 -2016) 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many colleagues and friends supported me on my PhD journey and I would like to express my gratitude to them. First of all, I would like to thank my supervisor Dr Yves Guillaume for steering me through the three intense years it took me to complete this thesis. As I never really warmed up to the label "student", I thank Yves for his patience and perseverance in dealing with a rebellious and at times stubborn PhD student such as myself. I also want to thank Prof Richard Crisp for his assistance in the writ...

Objective: The aim of this study was to verify the role of spiritual well-being as a moderator of the effect of living arrangement on depressive state in the elderly. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study using semi-structured interviews in Okinawa on 2010. Four hundreds thirteen (165 men, 248 women) participants were asked about 5-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-5) as dependent variable, living arrangements (living alone or living with others) as independent variable, spiritual rating scale for elderly as mediating variable, and demographic and socioeconomic variables as control variables. The main and interaction effects were assessed using hierarchical multiple regression and simple slope analyses. Results: The proportion of elderly who living alone was 26.6% (n 110), and they were significantly higher scores of GDS-5 than the elderly who living with others (P 0.001). Significant negative correlation was found between depressive state and spiritual well-being (r 0.27, P 0.001), and the result indicated that the elderly with higher spiritual well-being were lower depressive state. Results of hierarchical regression analysis showed that the correlation between living arrangement and spiritual well-being was positively associated with increased risk for depressive state (β 0.10, P 0.037). Simple slope analyses revealed that the elderly who living alone had significantly higher depressive state scores than those who living with others only in low spiritual well-being (P 0.002), but not in high spiritual well-being (P 0.445). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that spiritual well-being might play an important role in preventing the elderly who living alone from depression, and interventions aimed at promoting spiritual well-being in the elderly who living alone may lead to improvements in mental health.
