Was nicht mehr zu ändern ist. Eine Untersuchung zur Reue aus bewältigungstheoretischer Sicht.
(2005)
Das schmerzhafte Gefühl der Reue gründet auf dem Selbstvorwurf, falsch entschieden oder gehandelt zu haben, sowie der Vorstellung besserer, jedoch verpasster oder vertaner Alternativen. Reue motiviert dazu, den vergangenen Fehler wiedergutzumachen (tätige Reue). Wenn der Fehler jedoch unabänderlich ist, kann nachhaltiges Bereuen auf depressive Tendenzen hindeuten (lähmende Reue). In dieser Arbeit geht es um interindividuelle Unterschiede in der Bewältigung irreversibler Reueanlässe. Im Kern wird angenommen, dass die allgemeine Fähigkeit, persönliche Ziele mit Realisierungsmöglichkeiten abzustimmen (akkommodative Flexibilität nach Brandtstädter), vor einer lähmenden Reue schützt. Es werden sechs Studien vorgestellt, die diese Annahme prüfen: drei experimentelle Untersuchungen, die auf dem Szenarienansatz basieren, und drei Fragebogenuntersuchungen, die auf biographische Reueanlässe fokussieren. Abschließend wird die (Dys-) Funktionalität von Reue im Hinblick auf Selbstregulation, Selbstentwicklung und subjektives Wohlbefinden diskutiert.
This intervention study explored the effects of a newly developed intergenerational encounter program on cross-generational age stereotyping (CGAS). Based on a biographical-narrative approach, participants (secondary school students and nursing home residents) were invited to share ideas about existential questions of life (e.g., about one’s core experiences, future plans, and personal values). Therefore, the dyadic Life Story Interview (LSI) had been translated into a group format (the Life Story Encounter Program, LSEP), consisting of 10 90-min sessions. Analyses verified that LSEP participants of both generations showed more favorable CGAS immediately after, but also 3 months after the program end. Such change in CGAS was absent in a control group (no LSEP participation). The LSEP-driven short- and long-term effects on CGAS could be partially explained by two program benefits, the feeling of comfort with and the experience of learning from the other generation.
The present study examined associations between fathers’ masculinity orientation and their anticipated reaction toward their child’s coming out as lesbian or gay (LG). Participants were 134 German fathers (28 to 60years) of a minor child. They were asked how they would personally react if, one day, their child disclosed their LG identity to them. As hypothesized, fathers with a stronger masculinity orientation (i.e., adherence to traditional male gender norms, such as independence, assertiveness, and physical strength) reported that they would be more likely to reject their LG child. This association was serially mediated by two factors: fathers’ general anti-LG attitudes (i.e., level of homophobia) and their emotional distress due to their child’s coming out (e.g., feelings of anger, shame, or sadness). The result pattern was independent of the child’s gender or age. The discussion centers on the problematic role of traditional masculinity when it comes to fathers’ acceptance of their non-heterosexual child.
