Principles of Situation Research: Towards a Better Understanding of Psychological SituationsEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 29 Số 3 - Trang 363-381 - 2015
John F. Rauthmann, Ryne A. Sherman, David C. Funder
There is currently no consensus on how to study psychological situations, and
situation research is still riddled with problems of conceptualization (what is
a situation and what is it not?) and measurement (how can situational
information be assessed?). This target article formulates three core principles
(with corollaries) to provide a foundation for psychological situation research:

Implicit individual differences: relationships between implicit self‐esteem, gender identity, and gender attitudesEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 17 Số 1 - Trang 19-37 - 2003
Eugene Aidman, Steve M. Carroll
The study examined whether the magnitude of same‐sex‐favouring implicit gender
bias depends on individual differences in self‐esteem and gender identity as
theorized by Greenwald et al. The Implicit Association Test (IAT) was used to
measure implicit self‐esteem, gender identity, and gender attitudes. Explicit
self‐esteem and gender identity were measured with questionnaires. The IAT
revealed a st... hiện toàn bộ
Why Are Extraverts More Satisfied? Personality, Social Experiences, and Subjective Well–Being in CollegeEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 31 Số 2 - Trang 170-186 - 2017
Kelci Harris, Tammy English, Peter D. Harms, James J. Gross, Joshua J. Jackson
It is widely appreciated that extraversion is associated with greater subjective
well–being. What is not yet clear is what mechanisms relate the two. In two
longitudinal studies, we explored whether extraversion is prospectively
associated with higher levels of satisfaction during college through influencing
college social experiences using longitudinal cross–lagged mediation models. In
both studi... hiện toàn bộ
The Core of Darkness: Uncovering the Heart of the Dark TriadEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 27 Số 6 - Trang 521-531 - 2013
Daniel N. Jones, Aurelio José Figueredo
The Dark Triad consists of three overlapping but distinct personality variables:
narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy. To date, however, no research has
empirically identified what leads these three variables to overlap or whether
other variables share the same core. The present research addresses why and how
dark personalities overlap. Drawing from classic work in psychopathy, Hare's

Coping, life stress, and psychological and somatic distressEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 253-270 - 1995
June E. Higgins, Norman S. Endler
Theory and research have focused on the relationships among coping processes,
stressful life events, and psychological and physical distress. This study was
designed to examine the relationship of stressful life events and three styles
of coping—emotion oriented, task oriented, and avoidance oriented—to physical
and psychological distress. Questionnaires measuring coping styles, recent life

Sex differences in school achievement: what are the roles of personality and achievement motivation?European Journal of Personality - Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 185-209 - 2008
Ricarda Steinmayr, Birgit Spinath
It is consistently reported that despite equal cognitive ability, girls
outperform boys in school. In several methodological steps, the present study
examined sex differences in school achievement and some of the most important
personality and motivational constructs in a sample of 204 females and 138
adolescent males (mean age M = 16.94 years; SD = 0.71). Grades in Math and
German as well as grad... hiện toàn bộ
Predicting school achievement in boys and girlsEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 231-245 - 2008
H. Harald Freudenthaler, Birgit Spinath, Aljoscha C. Neubauer
This study investigates the extent to which girls' better school attainment is
associated with sex differences in intelligence, personality and school‐related
motivation. In a sample of 1353 Austrian pupils (mean age 13.74 years),
intelligence, the Big Five of personality, self‐esteem, school anxiety,
school‐related intrinsic motivation and achievement goals were assessed as
predictors and GPA as ... hiện toàn bộ
Dimensions of Normal Personality as Networks in Search of Equilibrium: You Can't like Parties if you Don't like PeopleEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 26 Số 4 - Trang 414-431 - 2012
Angélique O. J. Cramer, D.I. Boomsma, Arjen Noordhof, Marieke Wichers, Nicole Geschwind, Steven H. Aggen, Kenneth S. Kendler, Denny Borsboom
In one currently dominant view on personality, personality dimensions (e.g.
extraversion) are causes of human behaviour, and personality inventory items
(e.g. ‘I like to go to parties’ and ‘I like people’) are measurements of these
dimensions. In this view, responses to extraversion items correlate because they
measure the same latent dimension. In this paper, we challenge this way of
thinking and... hiện toàn bộ
Trait emotional intelligence: psychometric investigation with reference to established trait taxonomiesEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 15 Số 6 - Trang 425-448 - 2001
K. V. Petrides, Adrian Furnham
This paper sets out the theoretical foundation of emotional intelligence (EI) as
a constellation of traits and self‐perceived abilities. The discriminant
validity of trait EI is explored in two studies. In study 1 (N = 227), the
psychometric properties of the BarOn Emotional Quotient inventory were
scrutinized through confirmatory factor analysis and the measure was found to be
unifactorial. When ... hiện toàn bộ
Trait emotional intelligence: behavioural validation in two studies of emotion recognition and reactivity to mood inductionEuropean Journal of Personality - Tập 17 Số 1 - Trang 39-57 - 2003
K. V. Petrides, Adrian Furnham
This paper presents two experiments concerning trait emotional intelligence
(‘trait EI’). In study 1, ten high and ten low trait EI individuals were
selected from a sample of 85 persons to participate in a computerized experiment
involving the recognition of morphed emotional expressions. As hypothesized,
high trait EI participants were faster at identifying the expressions than their
low trait EI... hiện toàn bộ
