Obschonka, Martin; Goethner, Maximilian; Silbereisen, Rainer K.; Cantner, Uwe – Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2012
What role does social identity play in the transition from employed work to entrepreneurship? It was expected that social identity affects the cognitive processes that, according to the theory of planned behavior (TPB), underlie the formation of entrepreneurial intentions. Focusing on academic scientists' intentions to commercialize research…

Dörrenbächer, Laura; Perels, Franziska – Frontline Learning Research, 2015
Most self-regulated learning theories are imbedded within a social-cognitive framework and comprise cognitive, metacognitive and motivational components. Nevertheless, these theories partly neglect volition, which is necessary for implementing learning intentions. Therefore, the present study is frontline as it aimed to integrate volition within a…

Geiser, Christian; Lehmann, Wolfgang; Eid, Michael – Intelligence, 2008
A large number of studies have reported average performance differences in favor of males in mental rotation tasks. However, it is still unclear to what extent the magnitude of the sex differences varies across age, and whether the differences increase with age. In this study, we reanalyzed data from a cross-sectional investigation of N = 1624…

Schweizer, Karl – Intelligence, 2001
Studied the contribution of preattentive processes to the cognitive speed-ability relationship for 80 participants. Results reveal an increase in ability-related variances due to the stimulation of preattentive processes. Coefficients for a structural equation model indicated that preattentive processes exerted a stronger effect on cognitive…

Rindermann, H.; Neubauer, A. C. – Intelligence, 2004
According to mental speed theory of intelligence, the speed of information processing constitutes an important basis for cognitive abilities. However, the question, how mental speed relates to real world criteria, like school, academic, or job performance, is still unanswered. The aim of the study is to test an indirect speed-factor model in…
