“…Recalled pride was induced by asking participants to recall a positive sustainability‐related event, and recalled guilt was induced through recalling a negative sustainability‐related event. The procedure followed established approaches of manipulating emotions, by asking people to recall a past event and contemplate how they felt about it (Aronson et al, ; Levine et al, ; Salerno et al, ; Wang, Bowling, Tian, Gene, & Kwan, ), to form judgments that will guide future emotions and behavior. Specifically, participants received the instruction to “Think of a recent time in which you engaged in a behavior that was consistent with positive environmental values.…”

Emotional appraisal research has demonstrated that recalling a past behavior and its associated emotions can influence future behavior. However, how such recalled emotions shape sustainable consumer choice has not been examined. This study examines the role of recalled pride and guilt in shaping sustainable purchase intentions and the mediating role of anticipated pride and guilt. A conceptual model is proposed for motivating sustainable purchase intentions through the emotions associated with the behavioral recall. The model is applied in two experiments with online consumers examining purchase intentions of low carbon cars. Recalling feelings of pride associated with a past sustainability‐related behavior increases sustainable purchase intention, as compared with a neutral recall. This effect occurs through the mediation of both anticipated pride at the prospect of a sustainable behavior choice and anticipated guilt if the future choice is not sustainable. Similar hypotheses relating to recalled guilt at past unsustainable behavior were not supported. The study contributes to research on sustainable consumption, revealing an emotional route by which past behavior can influence future behavior. It also adds to emotional appraisal research by showing the role of specific self‐conscious emotions in forming this route, as prior research has focused more broadly on emotional valence.

A Flash Flood Early Warning System for Rural Kenya: A Pilot Study

The cost of climate change has increased phenomenally in recent years. Therefore, understanding climate change and its impacts, that are likely to get worse and worse into the future, gives us the ability to predict scenarios and plan for them. Flash floods, which are a common result of climate change, follow increased precipitation which then increases risk and associated vulnerability due to the unpredictable rainfall patterns. Developing countries suffer grave consequences in the event that weather disasters strike because they have the least adaptive capacity. At the equator where the hot days are hotter and winds carrying rainfall move faster, Kenya’s Tana River County is noted for its vulnerability towards flash floods. Additionally, this county and others that are classified as rural areas in Kenya do not receive short term early warnings for floods. This county was therefore selected as the study area for its vulnerability. The aim of the study is therefore to propose a flash flood early warning system framework that delivers short term early warnings. Using questionnaires, information about the existing warning system will be collected and analyzed using SPSS. The results will be used to interpret the relationships between variables of the study, with a particular interest in the moderation effect in order to confirm that the existing system can be modified; that is, if the moderation effect is confirmed.

“…Standardized (and easy) assessment of interpersonal motivation after victimization (e.g., revenge) might then be an aid in risk assessment and threat analysis by signaling potentially (very) aggressive behavior, in forensic settings (Meloy et al, 2012), but also in schools or at the workplace (e.g. Kausch & Resnick, 2001;Villaruel & Dunbar, 2006;Wang et al, 2018). In view of its causal role in capital offenses (McCullough et al, 2013), revenge certainly merits close monitoring.…”

“…Furthermore, it may be an aid in threat analysis (Meloy et al, 2012), for instance in the context of workplace violence (e.g. Kausch & Resnick, 2001;Wang et al, 2018), terrorism (e.g., Lotto, 2017) or school violence (Villaruel & Dunbar, 2006). Furthermore, from a victimological stance, screening can be helpful in signaling whether victims of criminal offenses might need support or counseling.…”

Revenge and forgiveness after victimization: psychometric evaluation of a Dutch version of the TRIM intended for victims and offenders

et al. 2020

The Transgression Related Interpersonal Motivations (TRIM) scale measures revenge, avoidance, and benevolence in response to social transgressions that, typically, comprise acts of indirect aggression. We tailored the TRIM for use in forensic psychiatric and victimological settings by slightly altering the instruction to include transgressions that comprise direct as well as indirect aggression. In this study, we examined the factor structure and psychometric qualities of this adapted Dutch version of the TRIM. Data was collected in adolescents from three different educational levels (N = 455) and in (ex)detainees (N = 65). Three unambiguous and internally consistent factors corroborated a priori conceptualizations. Associations with social desirability, dispositional anger, dispositional vengeance, accomplished revenge, and accomplished forgiveness supported construct validity. Mean scores from (ex)detainees did not differ from the student participants, although the former reported more incidents of physical and sexual violence. Hence, the TRIM appears useful as an aid in risk assessment of known offenders, threat assessment of as yet unknown offenders, and efforts to support victims of violence.
