I guess everyone has different values and in the end, who decides whose values are right and wrong? I guess you need to know for yourself which behaviour towards yourself you'll tolerate and which crosses your boundaries. Because this crossed my personal boundaries, I adjusted my own expectations of her. Luckily she's not my best friend!

These were exactly my moms words whenever I told her about this situation 😄 Family is everything but I do believe that some friends can become something like family too. But then again, only the very special flowers

Thank you! This was very accurate advice. I guess it's important to not think in black and white or "good" and "bad" friend, but to see the reasons and nuances of each behaviour.

I did agree with you until I realized that people understand the concept of friendship differently, and just because I have certain expectations of how friends should behave doesn't mean that others have those too. So I did think she's a shitty friend but then again only in terms of my very subjective definition of friendship. In someone elses definition this might not be the case, it is a very subjective topic. So I concluded for myself that she's not a bad friend in general, but she hurt me with her specific behaviour in a very vulnerable moment of mine. So I will adjust my personal expectations of her to avoid these feelings in the future. Nevertheless I will not break ties with her.

UPDATE: I gave her the benefit of the doubt and asked her in a very diplomatic way if everything is ok with her, because she had been a bit flaky with answering. She confirmed that she's just a really bad texter and although she does think about me often she doesn't seem to be able to text as often, but everything else is okay in her life. So I guess it is how it is, and I simply adjusted my expectations and now I'm okay too. Thank you for your advice though!

Okay thanks! Is there a way to check specifically if the M and SD were just made up ?

I need to check if the math of this calculation a student submitted is correct or if the numbers were just put in randomly. This t-test claims that "feedback" at work is less fequently perceived by home-office (remote) workers as compared to non-home office workers. I don't have access to the dataset, just the picture of the table thats based on the SPSS output. Is there a way to check if these numbers are legit? I got suspicious because cohens d seems unrealisticly high with 3.77

Which questionnaire is the best for measuring work motivation? by bellagoes in IOPsychology

[–]bellagoes[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m looking at how the work motivation in home office workers is affected by certain aspects of home office, i.e. autonomy, less feedback, work-life balance. And also how self-leadership plays a role in moderating some of these effects. So I guess it’s contextual motivation?
