A Method for Generating Simulated Plasmodes and Artificial Test Clusters with User-Defined Shape, Size, and Orientation
We present a simple method for generating simulated plasmodes and artificial test clusters with user-defined shape, size, and orientation. Our method differs from other cluster generation techniques in that it focuses on the validity of the cluster indicators. For J clusters, indicator validity is defined as the squared correlation ratio between the cluster indicator (i.e., the observed variable) and J-1 dummy variables. The within-cluster correl…
Gender‐related personality traits and interpersonal resource exchange among brother—sister relationships
Brother‐sister relationships are understudied within the field of personal relationships. Accordingly, the present study examines patterns of interpersonal resource exchange (drawing upon resource exchange theory; Foa & Foa, 1974), along with influences of gender‐related personality traits (i.e., agency and communion) on individuals’giving of interpersonal resources (i.e., affection and respect), among 79 brother‐sister pairs. Consistent with pre…
Influence of inner-city environment and Head Start experience on effectance motivation
Effectance motivation was examined in 26 inner-city children attending Head Start, 26 inner-city children with no preschool experience, and 26 middle-class children attending private preschool. Head Start children scored higher on measures of effectance motivation than did their non-Head Start counterparts; their levels were lower, however, than those of the middle-class children. Implications of the findings are discussed
