“…Although VSL influences become more mainstream in social and physical settings, for young people, the influence of the global consumer culture is very high, so their consumption is affected by superficiality and reckless choices. On the other hand, conscious and unconscious factors from the consumers' social and environmental settings are widely recognized as powerful determinants of consumption behavior [27,[74][75][76]. This hypothesis supports the results from our investigation.…”

“…The findings of the studies of Roubanis [33], Isaka [27] and Fogarty's [74] support the hypothesis that a high level of VSL is very rare in college-age students. In an investigation comparing environmentally-responsible consumerism (ERC) and the voluntary simplicity lifestyle (VSL), between Meredith College students in the USA [33] and Japanese female college students in Osaka Shoin Women's University (Osaka, Japan) [32], it was shown that both groups of respondents were striving to meet their needs of self-esteem and efficacy through their consumption behaviors.…”

Abstract:Characterizing consumers in terms of their propensity to practice sustainable consumption represents an interesting research challenge in which a crucial role is played by the questionnaire in terms of its structure and classification criteria. Various classification rules have been proposed in the literature, which can be used to identify consumer types and signify their propensity to practice the principles of sustainable development in daily life. In this paper, we based our approach in designing a classification tool on a combination of two elements: the concept of voluntary simplicity as a pillar for consumer characteristics and the idea of assessing consumers by using filters, in a modified form introducing many new aspects of life-cycle thinking. The tool proposed provides insight into the relationship between the consumer's typology and behavior during purchasing decisions in daily life. The main function of the proposed tool is to assign respondents to one of the proposed consumer types distinguished and characterized in terms of many aspects of life cycle thinking. A pilot survey has been performed in order to verify the proposed tool, and the survey results have been presented in the paper, as well.

“…There is also some evidence that these programs work for students. For example, Fogarty (1994) found that a 10-week university preparatory skills training program directed at non-school-leavers led to improvements in scores on Shostrom's (1980) broad time competence and inner directedness dimensions. Taken together, these studies demonstrate that time management skills can be trained.…”

“…SA has been inversely related to neurotic symptomatology and irrational cognitions (Jones & Crandall, 1986) as well as loneliness and depression (Sumerlin & Bundrick, 1996). SA is also an important variable in psychological assessment (Sheffield, Carey, Patenaude, & Lambert, 1995), psychotherapy process/outcome (Lee & Hett, 1990;Sumerlin, 1996), and psychosocial interventions (Fogarty, 1994).…”

The aim of this study was to investigate empirical connections between humanistic psychology and psychoanalysis by exploring a single measurable construct from each discipline. Specifically, we examined the relationship between self-actualization (SA) and psychological mindedness (PM). A cross-sectional design was selected to explore interrelations among study variables at a single timepoint. The participants were 204 students enrolled at midsize Eastern (Fordham) and Western (Boise State) US universities. Participant volunteers filled out the following measures: the Psychological Mindedness Scale (PM Scale), the Balanced Index of Psychological Mindedness (BPIM), the Brief Index of Self-Actualization -Revised (BISA-R), and the Short Index of Self-Actualization (SISA) along with a demographic form. SA and PM were not affected by demographic variables of age, gender, or ethnicity/race but were strongly and positively associated with one another. This study establishes empirical connections between humanistic psychology and psychoanalysis at the construct level. These connections have disciplinary and interdisciplinary implications.
