  • Exploring the Creative Personality: Using Machine Learning to Predict Fluency and Originality in Divergent Thinking

    Dominique Dumas, Yixiao Dong et al.ARTICLECreativity Research Journal2026

    In this study, 100 self-reported personality items from the Big Five Aspects Scale, responded to by a sample of 334 undergraduate participants, were used to predict quantity (ideational fluency) and quality (originality) of ideas on a divergent thinking (DT) task. The originality of DT responses was scored through a fine-tuned version of the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) 3.5 (i.e., Ocsai), and a least absolute shrinkage selection opera…

  • All You Nonconformists Are (Not) All Alike: Dissociable Social Stereotypes of Mavericks and Contrarians

    Open AccessBrian W Haas, W Keith Campbell et al.ARTICLEPersonality and Social Psychology…2025

    While some people easily align themselves with others, others find themselves less aligned with sociocultural norms (e.g., nonconformists). Though people outside the mainstream tend to capture societies’ attention, very little is known regarding how nonconformists are construed. In these studies, we investigated how different types of nonconformists are stereotyped. We sought to elucidate common and dissociable social stereotypes of two types of …

  • Neutral attitude toward the utilization of psychedelic therapy for depression in the United Kingdom population

    Open AccessLiam O Jarvis, Alexander Jack et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Drug…2025

    The UK public's attitude toward PAT is neither strongly favourable nor unfavourable on average at the present time, potentially emanating from low domain knowledge and/or concern about the safety, efficacy, and social desirability of PAT. The neutrality of the UK's attitudes underscores the importance of scientific research and medical communication to inform the public's understanding of the risks and benefits of this novel class of mental healt…

    Version IV, Narcissistic Admiration and Rivalry Questionnaire-Short Form, Single-Item Narcissism Scale, and brief version of the Pathological Narcissism Inventory). The findings of Study 1 (N = 5,736) revealed heterogeneity in how strongly the measures are correlated. Some instruments loaded clearly on one of the three factors proposed by previous research (i.e., Neuroticism, Extraversion, Antagonism), while others cross-loaded across factors and…

  • Perceptions of psychedelic personality change, determinants of use, setting and drug moderation: Toward a holistic model

    Open AccessBrandon Wei, Chelsea E Sleep et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychedelic Studies2023Cited by: 2

    BackgroundStudies have shown evidence for long-term effects of psychedelics on personality, but comprehensive models of psychedelic-mediated personality changes have yet to be explored.AimsThe present study aims to investigate (1) perceptions of personality change in the general population, (2) moderators of perceived personality change including setting and drug type, and (3) whether personality predisposes individuals to use psychedelics.Method…

  • Brand awe: A key concept for understanding consumer response to luxury and premium brands

    Jooyoung Kim, Hyejin Bang et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Social Psychology2021

    In this study, we propose a new concept, brand awe, and explore its nature, underlying dimensions, and roles in relation to consumer responses. Brand awe is a specific mixture of emotions that consumers feel when they encounter a luxury or premium brand that they perceive to be vast and, thus, requires a schematic accommodation. Exploratory Factor Analysis (N = 205) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (N = 256) of the survey data based on fourteen b…

  • Country‐level correlates of the Dark Triad traits in 49 countries

    Open AccessP K Jonason, Magdalena Żemojtel-Piotrowska et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2020

    OBJECTIVES: The Dark Triad traits (i.e., narcissism, psychopathy, Machiavellianism) capture individual differences in aversive personality to complement work on other taxonomies, such as the Big Five traits. However, the literature on the Dark Triad traits relies mostly on samples from English-speaking (i.e., Westernized) countries. We broadened the scope of this literature by sampling from a wider array of countries. METHOD: = 21.53) to examine …

  • Exploring the structure of narcissism: Toward an integrated solution

    Open AccessMichael L Crowe, Donald R Lynam et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2019

    OBJECTIVE: Despite decades of work on narcissism, there remain many active areas of exploration and debate including a clear and consensual description of its underlying components. Understanding narcissism's factor structure is necessary for the precise measurement and investigation of specific psychological and behavioral processes. The aim of the current study was to explore the structure of narcissism by examining it at varying hierarchical l…

  • Less in-person social interaction with peers among U.S. adolescents in the 21st century and links to loneliness

    Open AccessJ M Twenge, Brian H Spitzberg et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social and Personal…2019Cited by: 49References: 59

    In nationally representative samples of U.S. adolescents (age: 13–18) and entering college students, 1976–2017 ( N = 8.2 million), iGen adolescents in the 2010s (vs. previous generations) spent less time on in-person (face-to-face) social interaction with peers, including getting together or socializing with friends, going to parties, going out, dating, going to movies, and riding in cars for fun. College-bound high school seniors in 2016 (vs. th…

  • God owes me: The role of divine entitlement in predicting struggles with a deity

    Joshua B Grubbs, Julie Exline et al.ARTICLEPsychology of Religion and…2018

    Psychological entitlement is a stable personality trait known to predict a range of concerning outcomes in people’s lives. Recent research has suggested that entitlement might have domain-specific manifestations such as romantic entitlement, academic entitlement, and sexual entitlement. The present work sought to examine such a domain specific manifestation in the religious and spiritual realm. This new manifestation was called divine entitlement…

  • Vulnerable Narcissism Is (Mostly) a Disorder of Neuroticism

    Open AccessJoshua D Miller, Donald R Lynam et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2018

    Objective Increasing attention has been paid to the distinction between the dimensions of narcissistic grandiosity and vulnerability. We examine the degree to which basic traits underlie vulnerable narcissism, with a particular emphasis on the importance of Neuroticism and Agreeableness. Method Across four samples (undergraduate, online community, clinical‐community), we conduct dominance analyses to partition the variance predicted in vulnerable…

  • Ratings of affective and interpersonal tendencies differ for grandiose and vulnerable narcissism: A replication and extension of Gore and Widiger (2016)

    Open AccessCourtland S Hyatt, Chelsea E Sleep et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality2018

    OBJECTIVE: Theoretical conceptions of narcissism have long been characterized by two seemingly opposing poles: grandiosity and vulnerability. The goal of the current study was to investigate the extent to which traits associated with one profile are perceived to co-occur with the other within an individual. METHOD: = 37) recruited from Amazon's MTurk were assigned to one of four conditions in which they rated how often a series of narcissistic tr…

  • Promotion by others through social networks

    Bridget P Lynch, Matthew K Meisel et al.ARTICLESelf and Identity2018

    Although self-promotion may be the most direct way people self-present, it carries social costs. We propose a novel phenomenon-promotion by others-wherein social networks may afford similar advantages with fewer costs. We utilized egocentric network analysis to examine relationships between social connections and perceived promoter potential (i.e., likelihood a friend will tell others about successes; PPP) and relationship dynamics. Participants …

  • Decreases in psychological well-being among American adolescents after 2012 and links to screen time during the rise of smartphone technology

    J M Twenge, Gabrielle N Martin et al.ARTICLEEmotion2018

    In nationally representative yearly surveys of United States 8th, 10th, and 12th graders 1991-2016 (N = 1.1 million), psychological well-being (measured by self-esteem, life satisfaction, and happiness) suddenly decreased after 2012. Adolescents who spent more time on electronic communication and screens (e.g., social media, the Internet, texting, gaming) and less time on nonscreen activities (e.g., in-person social interaction, sports/exercise, …

  • Cultural Individualism Is Linked to Later Onset of Adult-Role Responsibilities Across Time and Regions

    Open AccessJ M Twenge, W Keith CampbellARTICLEJournal of Cross-Cultural…2018Cited by: 2References: 30

    This article explores links between cultural individualism and the age at which adult-role responsibilities are assumed (the speed of maturation to adulthood). Across 43 years (1973-2015) within the United States, yearly indicators of individualism were positively correlated with later onset of work and family responsibilities (a slow life strategy). The same pattern appeared cross-culturally: Across 53 nations, cultural individualism was signifi…

  • Controversies in Narcissism

    Joshua D Miller, Donald R Lynam et al.ARTICLEAnnual Review of Clinical…2017

    There has been a surge in interest in and research on narcissism and narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). Despite or because of this increased attention, there are several areas of substantial debate that surround the construct, including descriptions of grandiose and vulnerable dimensions or variants, questions regarding the existence of a consensual description, central versus peripheral features of narcissism, distinctions between normal a…

  • Fuzzy But Useful Constructs: Making Sense of the Differences Between Generations

    Stacy M Campbell, J M Twenge et al.ARTICLEWork Aging and Retirement2017Cited by: 1References: 6

    While the research on generational differences has continued to grow, there are still questions about whether “generation” is a useful construct. In this study, generational boundaries or cut-offs are examined using a large, nationally representative sample of high school seniors whose attitudes and work values were assessed over time. Compared to Boomers and GenX’ers at the same age, Millennials were less likely to endorse social values (such as…

  • Age, time period, and birth cohort differences in self-esteem: Reexamining a cohort-sequential longitudinal study

    J M Twenge, Nathan T Carter et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality and Social…2017Cited by: 5

    Orth, Trzesniewski, and Robins (2010) concluded that the nationally representative Americans' Changing Lives (ACL) cohort-sequential study demonstrated moderate to large age differences in self-esteem, and no birth cohort (generational) differences in the age trajectory. In a reanalysis of these data using 2 different statistical techniques, we find significant increases in self-esteem that could be attributed to birth cohort or time period. Firs…

  • The Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television: Increases in the Use of Swear Words in American Books, 1950-2008

    Open AccessJ M Twenge, Hannah Vanlandingham et al.ARTICLESAGE Open2017Cited by: 3References: 33

    Evidence is accumulating that American culture has become more individualistic since the 1950s. In the present research, we focused on one plausible manifestation of individualism, the use of swear words in cultural products. We examined trends in the use of the seven words identified by George Carlin in 1972 as the "seven words you can never say on television" in the Google Books corpus of American English books from 1950 to 2008. We find a stea…

  • Thinking Structurally About Narcissism: An Examination of the Five-Factor Narcissism Inventory and Its Components

    Joshua D Miller, Donald R Lynam et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality Disorders2016

    The Five-Factor Narcissism Inventory (FFNI) is a self-report measure of the traits linked to grandiose and vulnerable narcissism, as well as narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), from a five-factor model perspective (FFM). In the current studies, the factor structure of the FFNI was explored and the results supported the extraction of three factors: Antagonism (e.g., Arrogance), Neuroticism (e.g., Need for Admiration), and Agentic Extraversion…

  • Narcissism, Overconfidence, and Risk Taking in U.S. and Chinese Student Samples

    Open AccessMatthew K Meisel, He Ning et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cross-Cultural…2016

    Narcissism, overconfidence, and risk seeking are all positively correlated in U.S. samples. Overconfidence and risk seeking show consistent cross-cultural variation with higher averages among Chinese samples than U.S. samples, whereas the prior literature is mixed with regard to narcissism. These variables have never been studied simultaneously across U.S. and Chinese cultures. In two studies, we investigated within-cultural and cross-cultural va…
