Oliveira, João Tiago; Faustino, Divo; Freitas, Fátima; Gonçalves, Miguel M.; Ribeiro, Eugénia; Gonçalves, Sónia; Machado, Paulo P. P. – British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, 2023
Worry is a phenomenon that is present in multiple psychopathologies. Given the widely accepted transdiagnostic role that worry plays in psychopathology, reliable measures for this construct are pivotal for clinical practice. The Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ) is one of the most widely used and established measures of worry in both clinical…

Inman, Richard A.; Moreira, Paulo A. S.; Faria, Sara; Araújo, Marta; Cunha, Diana; Pedras, Susana; Correia Lopes, Joana – Environmental Education Research, 2022
Certain behaviors, especially when adopted by a majority, can help limit the magnitude of climate change. In this cross-sectional study, the stages of change from the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) are applied to environmentally-significant behavior. We develop and test a new scale -- the Climate Change Stages of Change Questionnaire (CCSOCQ) -- for…

Casanova, Joana R.; Almeida, Leandro S.; Peixoto, Francisco; Ribeiro, Rui-Bártolo; Marôco, João – SAGE Open, 2019
Academic expectations play a significant role in the quality of student adaptation and academic success. Previous research suggests that expectations are a multidimensional construct, making it crucial to test the measures used for this important characteristic. Because assessment of student adaptation to higher education comprises a multitude of…
