Instructions about how to save IRB approval and submission forms from ISU

IRB SUBMISSION FORM:

When you are inside the xForm, there should be a button at the bottom that says “more.” Clicking it should give you the option to create and download a pdf with or without attachments.

In case you do not know how to get to the xForm after it’s approved, here are more specific instructions:
  1. Locate the study you want to open from the list of your studies on your dashboard (the screen you see when you log in).
  2. Open the study by clicking the blue IRB ID.
  3. Once inside the study, locate the event (the continuing review and/or modification you want) and click the link.
·         Events are listed in the fourth table down, after “study,” “study-site,” and “contacts.”
  1. Once inside the event, look to the left for a column entitled “Actions.” There should be a link called “xForms” with a number in parentheses behind it. Click that.
  2. A new window should open with a link that reads “IRB Application.” This link will open the completed form.
  3. At the bottom of the form, you should see a “More” button that will allow you to view the form as a PDF that you should then be able to download and print.



IRB APPROVAL LETTER:

Approval letters are documents generated by IRB Manager at the resolution of each event (e.g., initial application, modification, continuing review). 

The “Attachments” field within every event has two sections:

1.       general “attachments” (containing documents uploaded within the IRB Manager application)


2.       “generated docs” (the approval letter)

MPLUS syntax

If we don't want a correlation between the variables, we add this @0 like that:

Honor1 with Honor2@0;

In the output the correlation between Honor 1 and Honor2 should be 0.0000


@1 would set the correlation to 1
@2 would set the correlation to 2
and so on...


This syntax numbers in parenthesis would mean you are setting the correlation coefficients to be the same:

Honor1 with Honor2(0);
Honor2 with Honor3(0);

Honor5 with Honor6(1);
Honor4 with Honor5(1);


In the output, you should see that the correlation coefficients to be the same for Honor1 and Honor2 and for Honor2 and Honor 3.

You can put any number you want inside the paranthesis.

With Susan - Positive or Negative Reciprocity behaviors - Which one is more important in honor cultures?

People in honor cultures may tend to be higher on negative reciprocity behaviors (paying back the bad deeds, retaliation) than positive reciprocity behaviors because losing honor is more costly than gaining honor?

A single paper can be done on this!

Mediated Moderation & Moderated Mediation Sources

 It doesn’t matter whether one uses median split or treat masculine honor as continuous variable. Findings would be explained in lay language exactly the same way.

See examples:

Cheung, W. Y., Sedikides, C., & Wildschut, T. (2016). Induced nostalgia increases optimism (via social-connectedness and self-esteem) among individuals high, but not low, in trait nostalgia. Personality and Individual Differences, 90, 283-288.

Hood, A., Pulvers, K., Spady, T. J., Kliebenstein, A., & Bachand, J. (2015). Anxiety mediates the effect of acute stress on working memory performance when cortisol levels are high: a moderated mediation analysis. Anxiety, Stress, & Coping, 28(5), 545-562.

MODERATED MEDIATION EXAMPLES:

Conceptual moderated mediation model in which cortisol levels influence working memory through the combination of condition (stress or control) and anxiety.




Conceptual diagram:

provocative life events and moderated by sex.



Dependent variable: life satisfaction; independent variable: knowledge sharing; mediator: colleague relationships; moderator: gender (female/male). LL: lower limit of the confidence interval; UL: upper limit of the confidence interval. The results are based on Hayes’ (2013) PROCESS analysis with SPSS, and Paternoster et al. (1998) one-tailed z test

At least 144 countries have laws on sexual harassment. However, even when laws exist, they are not always compliant with international standards or implemented. Still, 37 countries exempt rape perpetrators from prosecution when they are married to or subsequently marry the victim.

Measurement Invariance


Invariance is given if RMSEA value is less than .08 and CFI and TFI values are higher than .90 (> .95 even better) (Byrne, 2008; Hu & Bentler, 1999; MacCallum, Browne, & Sugawara, 1996).


Considering the χ2 difference test’s sensitivity to sample size when comparing model fit, we follow Chen’s (31) model-comparison-specific recommended cutoff values: metric vs. configural, Δ*CFI < .010, Δ*SRMR < .030, Δ*RMSEA < .015; scalar vs. metric, Δ*CFI < .010, Δ*SRMR < .010, Δ*RMSEA < .015. As noted above, the asterisk before the fit index name denotes that the index is based on the robust chi-square, as produced using the robust estimation method in Mplus

Chen FF (2007) Sensitivity of goodness of fit indexes to lack of measurement invariance. Struct Equ Model. doi:10.1080/10705510701301834.


Invariance is given if values are equal to or smaller than -.01, as suggested by Cheung and Rensvold (2002).
