Personality in Social Psychology
18.1 Personality Psychology 18.2 Basic Approaches to Studying Personality 18.3 Behavioral Assessment of Personality 18.4 Person Perception and Accuracy 18.5 Competition 18.6 Toward a Cooperative Social–Personality Psychology
Pathways to Mathematics
A model of the relations among cognitive precursors, early numeracy skill, and mathematical outcomes was tested for 182 children from 4.5 to 7.5 years of age. The model integrates research from neuroimaging, clinical populations, and normal development in children and adults. It includes 3 precursor pathways: quantitative, linguistic, and spatial attention. These pathways (a) contributed independently to early numeracy skills during preschool and…
Do home numeracy and literacy practices of Greek and Canadian parents predict the numeracy skills of kindergarten children?
Children’s experiences with early numeracy and literacy activities are a likely source of individual differences in their preparation for academic learning in school. What factors predict differences in children’s experiences? We hypothesised that relations between parents’ practices and children’s numeracy skills would mediate the relations between numeracy skills and parents’ education, attitudes and expectations. Parents of Greek (N = 100) and…
Gender Differences in the Correlates of Self‐Referent Word Use
Past research shows that self‐focused attention is robustly positively related to depression, and women are more likely than men to self‐focus in response to depressed mood (e.g., R. Ingram, 1990 ; S. Nolen‐Hoeksema, 1987 ). The goal of the current study was to further delineate gender differences in the correlates of self‐focus as measured through the frequency of spontaneous use of self‐referencing words. The frequency of such word use during a…
Home numeracy experiences and children’s math performance in the early school years.
Children’s numerical competence in kindergarten is highly predictive of their acquisition of mathematics in Grade 1 and Grade 2, suggesting that experiences at home before schooling are important in understanding how numeracy develops. In this study, the mathematical skills of 146 children in Kindergarten, Grade 1, and Grade 2 were correlated with the frequency with which parents reported informal activities that have quantitative components such…
The social behavior and reputation of the attributionally complex
Personality as manifest in word use
The use of words is one of the most direct means of expressing thoughts and feelings. However, past studies have had limited success in correlating word use with personality. The purpose of the present study was to identify categories of word use relevant to personality using a broad range of personality data. Using data from 181 participants, the present study correlated word use within a 1-hr life history interview with self-judgments of person…
