Donate for your Secrets: Relationship between Secrecy, Guilt and Donation Behavior.

Previous research has well documented the negative sides of secrecy, ignoring its potential constructive aspects. Based on the concept of compensatory behavior, this study conducted two experiments with 532 adults to explore the mediating role of felt guilt between secrecy and donation, and the moderating role of moral identity. Study 1 ( = 272) showed that felt guilt mediated the relationship between secrecy and donation behaviors.

Leader Phubbing and Employee Job Performance: The Effect of Need for Social Approval.

Purpose: A workplace leader's phubbing (snubbing by using the phone) can create social distance between the leader and employee. We tested whether this social distance might reduce trust, with a negative impact on job performance. The negative impact might be especially strong for employees with a high need for social approval (NFSA).

Non-syndromic mental retardation is not expressed in RAC1 gene polymorphisms.

We investigated whether non-syndromic mental retardation (NSMR) is associated with RAC1 gene polymorphisms, using a case-control association study. A group of Han children of northwestern China were evaluated for three common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene (rs1647224, rs836488, rs702482). Pairwise linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis revealed that the three SNPs were in linkage disequilibrium (all D'>0.
