The perception of listening quality may reflect two factors: constructive and destructive listening, which may converge with desired (e.g., humility) and undesired (e.g., rudeness) ...

Resilience has been found to have positive impacts on college students’ well-being and mental health. However, we still lack knowledge on how and und
the student would be considered fully accurate in the present study although her self-assessments were actually inaccurate. A remedy for this potential validity threat would be to assess separate self-assessments for each type of problem in future research. Furthermore, like the above-mentioned limit...
