An Evolutionary View of Organizational Culture
Confidence: Overcoming Low Self-Esteem, Insecurity, and Self-Doubt
World-renowned personality expert reveals the truth about something we all want more of-confidence Millions of people are plagued by low self-confidence. But in Confidence, personality expert Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic shows us that high confidence makes us less likeable, less employable, and less successful in the long run. He reveals the benefits of low confidence (including being more motivated and self-aware), teaches us how to know when to …
Personality 101
The Hungry Mind: Intellectual Curiosity Is the Third Pillar of Academic Performance
Over the past century, academic performance has become the gatekeeper to institutions of higher education, shaping career paths and individual life trajectories. Accordingly, much psychological research has focused on identifying predictors of academic performance, with intelligence and effort emerging as core determinants. In this article, we propose expanding on the traditional set of predictors by adding a third agency: intellectual curiosity.…
Personality and individual differences
Trait complexes and academic achievement: Old and new ways of examining personality in educational contexts
BACKGROUND. Although recent research has provided evidence for the predictive validity of personality traits in academic settings, the path to an improved understanding of the nature of personality influences on academic achievement involves a reconceptualization of both criterion and predictor construct spaces. AIMS. For the criterion space, one needs to consider student behaviours beyond grades and level of educational attainment, and include w…
The Psychology of Personnel Selection
This engaging and thought-provoking text introduces the main techniques, theories, research and debates in personnel selection, helping students and practitioners to identify the major predictors of job performance as well as the most suitable methods for assessing them. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic and Adrian Furnham provide a comprehensive, critical and up-to-date review of the constructs we use in assessing people – intelligence, personality, creat…
Independent Effects of Personality and Sex on Self-Estimated Intelligence: Evidence from Austria
The effects of sex and personality traits on self-estimates of intelligence were examined in a sample of 302 Austrian adults (143 men, 159 women). Confirming previous research, men had higher self-estimates of logical and spatial abilities than did women, and these differences were partly explained in terms of women's higher Neuroticism scores. Neuroticism (negatively) and Openness (positively) accounted significantly for variances in self-estima…
The Relationship Between Dimensions of Love, Personality, and Relationship Length
The psychology of personnel selection
Psychometric Evaluation of the Malay Satisfaction With Life Scale
Personality and Defense Mechanisms in Late Adulthood
An Age X Gender interaction revealed that men and women varied in their pattern of age differences for some specific DMs. Results further suggest that image-distortion defense may function to compensate resource loss
Effects of personality and threat of evaluation on divergent and convergent thinking
An Exploration of the Indecisiveness Scale in Multiethnic Malaysia
This article examined the construct of indecisiveness, or the inability to make timely decisions, in a multiethnic sample from Malaysia. In all, 164 (84 women, 80 men) Malay participants and 150 (76 women, 74 men) Chinese participants completed a Malay version of Frost and Shows's Indecisiveness Scale. Results showed that interitem reliabilities for both ethnic groups were high. Test-retest reliability with 21 participants after 10 days was also …
Personality and Intellectual Competence
The relationship between estimated and psychometric personality and intelligence scores
Personality predicts academic performance: Evidence from two longitudinal university samples
Neuroticism and “Special Treatment” in University Examinations
Two intakes of first year students ( N = 54 and N = 60) were given the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (Eysenck & Eysenck, 1985) soon after arriving at university. Three years later they wrote their final examinations consisting of seven three-hour papers. Results showed that students high on Neuroticism were more likely to write their examinations in the health center or to provide a doctor's note than were students low on Neuroticism. There w…
