“…Evidence from studies in education and sports suggests that environments that acknowledge individuals' emotions and thoughts and provide adequate structure and feedback, a meaningful rationale for tasks, and opportunities for decision-making are antecedents of HP for the given activity (Bonneville-Roussy, Vallerand, & Bouffard, 2013;Mageau et al, 2009). In contrast is an environment that places value on authority, pressure, and control associated with OP (Bonneville- Roussy et al, 2013;Mageau et al, 2009). …”

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the discriminant and predictive validity of the dualistic model of passion for work. Harmonious and obsessive passion was compared to work engagement and workaholism in two studies. Study 1 was cross-sectional and supported convergent and discriminant validity of the dualistic model using exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) and confirmatory factor analysis. Study 2 was cross-lagged and applied confirmatory factor analyses, as well as hierarchical linear modeling to test discriminant, convergent, and predictive validity of harmonious and obsessive passion for work. Predictive validity was supported for obsessive and harmonious passion with respect to wellbeing, but not with respect to performance. When controlling for work engagement and workaholism, harmonious passion was negatively related to burnout and positively related to life satisfaction.In contrast, obsessive passion related positively to burnout and negatively to life satisfaction.Only workaholism predicted variance in supervisor rated organizational citizenship behaviors (negatively related), and none of the included variables were associated with supervisor rated in-role performance.

“…However, once developed, passion can also undergo an ongoing development as it is affected by a variety of social and personal variables (Vallerand, 2010(Vallerand, , 2015. For instance, in a study with students enrolled in a college music program and with an average of over 7 years of musical experience (Bonneville-Roussy, Vallerand, & Bouffard, 2013 ), results from a path analysis revealed that a musical identity coupled with autonomy support from one's music teachers predicted harmonious passion toward music, while obsessive passion was predicted by a musical identity coupled with controlling behavior from one's music teachers. Thus, autonomy support (or its lack of support) also plays a role in the ongoing development of passion.…”

“…Moreover, past research has shown that while both types of passion are positively related to persistence in the activity that one is passionate about (e.g., Bonneville-Roussy, Vallerand, & Bouffard, 2013), only obsessive passion is related to indicators of rigid persistence in ill-advised activities such as cycling over ice and snow in winter (Vallerand et al, 2003, Study 3) and displaying overuse of the activities as indicative of gaming addiction (Lafrenière, Vallerand, Donahue, & Lavigne, 2009;Wang & Chu, 2007), pathological gambling (Philippe & Vallerand, 2007;Ratelle, Vallerand, Mageau, Rousseau, & Provencher, 2004;Vallerand et al, 2003, Study 4), and even physical injuries (Rip et al, 2006;St-Louis, Carbonneau, & Vallerand, 2015). Finally, previous research uncovered moderately strong, positive associations (ranging from .22 to .70) between obsessive passion and problematic behaviors such as for instance, activity addiction (Stenseng, Rise, & Kraft, 2011), gambling dependence (MacKillop, Anderson, Castelda, Mattson, & Donovick, 2006;Ratelle et al, 2004), compulsive buying (Wang & Chen, 2008;Wang & Yang, 2008), exercise dependence (Paradis, Cooke, Martin, & Hall, 2013).…”

HighlightsImpulsivity is related to obsessive passion for screen-based activities.Obsessive passion predicts problematic screen-based activity outcomes.Harmonious passion is related to adaptive screen-based activity outcomes.Impulsivity can be a key personality variable of the Dualistic Model of Passion. Passion on the Screen 2 AbstractThe purpose of the present research was to look at the correlates of passion towards screen-based activities. In two studies, we aimed to test the role of impulsivity as a predictor of obsessive (but not harmonious) passion for Facebook use and series watching. We also aimed to distinguish between problematic and non-problematic correlates as pertains to Facebook use and TV series watching. Based on the Dualistic Model of Passion, it was hypothesized that Harmonious passion would be positively associated with adaptive correlates and Obsessive passion to less positive and even negative ones in both types of activities. In two studies, young adults (Study 1 = 256; Study 2 = 420) completed the Passion Scale with respect to Facebook Use and Series Watching, respectively, the UPPS Impulsivity Scale, and scales measuring problematic and nonproblematic correlates associated with engaging in such activities. The results provided support for the proposed model: Impulsivity predicted obsessive (but not harmonious) passion. Obsessive passion was positively associated with negative correlates such as Facebook overuse whereas harmonious passion was positively associated with adaptive correlates such as self-development through series watching. These results suggest that it is the type of passion underlying activity engagement that determines what is experienced. The Case of Impulsivity and the Problematic and Non-Problematic Series Watching and Facebook UseIn Indonesia and in the Philippines people spend an average more than 500 minutes every day looking at screens. In the USA this number is 444 minutes that includes 147 minutes spent watching TV, 103 minutes in front of a computer, 151 minutes on a smartphones, and 43 minutes with a tablet (Quartz, 2014). Over the recent years, screen-based activities as series (or TV show) watching and Facebook use slowly became a significant part of the leisure time activities. In a recent study of the Netflix Media Center (2013), 73% of binge-watching streamers-those who watch more than one episode per occasion-have positive feelings towards this activity and 80% of them claim that they would rather watch an episode of a good series than to watch and read the social media activity of their friends. Most recently, Netflix started to broadcast in more than 200 countries, reaching viewers all around the globe (Netflix, 2016). In addition to the growing popularity of series watching, social media use is also a prevalent phenomenon. Facebook is currently the most popular social networking site, overtaking Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Google Plus (Ebizmba, 2015). As of January 2015, it had more than one billion active users with almost half of them (48%) ...
