Correlations
• Small = .10
• Medium = .30
• Large = .50
![Page 3: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Basic Steps
• 1) Create a test
• 2) Validate the test
• 3) Use the test

Validating a Test
• Is a test measuring what it is suppose to measure? – Not a YES or NO answer
• Types of Validity
• 1) Predictive• 2) Concurrent• 3) Content• 4) Construct
![Page 5: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Predictive and Concurrent
• Called “Criterion-orientated” validity
• Does the test predict some type of criterion?
• Predictive – criterion is in the future
• Concurrent – criterion is in the present
![Page 6: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Content Validity
• Test items represent the entire “universe” of possible items
![Page 7: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Group Activity
• What qualities does the trait of extraversion contain?– e.g., assertiveness– Come up with at least 6 qualities
• Create one item to measure each quality.

Content Validity
• Not normally established empirically
• Established by experts in the field
![Page 12: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Construct Validity
• The test actually gauges the personality dimension being measured.
• How can you do this?
• First need to determine if its internal structure is correct.

Construct Validity
• Next, you need to create a “model” of the construct

Construct Validity
• Uses all types of validity to determine if a test actually gauges the personality dimension being measured– There is actually even more than can be done
to examine construct validity-e.g., “changes over time”
• Note: you NEVER get a single number that represents “construct validity”
![Page 21: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

What is a trait of personality?
• A “unit” of measurement
• Allport presents 8 Criteria that define a personality trait

Traits
• 1) A trait has more than nominal existence
• Traits are real!

Traits
• 2) A trait is more generalized than a behavior
– There are systems of behaviors
– Traits my embrace anywhere between 2 to hundreds of behaviors
![Page 29: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

• 3) A trait is dynamic
• A trait CAUSES behavior, it is not just a summary of behavior

Traits
• 4) The existence of a trait my be established empirically or statistically
• Statistical techniques can be used to examine coherence among behaviors
![Page 32: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Traits
• 5) Traits are only relatively independent of each other
• It will be difficult to isolate “fundamental” traits that are completely independent of each other
![Page 33: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Traits
• 6) A trait of personality, psychologically considered, is not the same as a moral quality.
![Page 34: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Traits
• 7) Acts, and even habits, that are inconsistent with a trait are not proof of the non-existence of the trait
• Not realistic to expect perfect consistency– Some traits not important in some people– Traits interact with each other within a person– Context also determines behavior
![Page 35: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Traits
• 8) A trait may be viewed either in the light of the personality which contains it, or in the light of its distribution in the population at large.
• Some traits are unique and some are universal
• Can examine either– Universal traits across people– Unique blends of traits within a person
![Page 36: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Authoritarianism
• Historical context– Nazi Germany
• Philosophical roots– Fromm
• To avoid choices people turn their will over to external authorities
• “I am just following orders”
• In the 1930s created the “F – Scale”

Authoritarianism
• Note how this trait ties together many diverse behaviors
• Also note how it can explain inconsistencies in behavior– A person VERY respectful to a superior may
be cruel to those who rank lower

Authoritarianism
• Over 4,000 articles on this trait!
• Findings:• No relation between authoritarianism and
political party
• Note: not conservatism, but pseudoconservatism– e.g., taxes abolished, no trials, etc.
![Page 55: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Authoritarianism
Findings:
• Society is in turmoil, authoritarians more likely to support “strong” political candidates
• When standard of living declines authoritarians more likely to favor restrictions of welfare and bans on abortion

Authoritarianism
Roots:
• Child-rearing practices– Regularly and severely punished– Learn to fear, obey, and be unquestioning of authority

Self-Monitoring

• High SM – Monitor every situation– Look for cues how to act, alter behavior
• Low SM– Consistent behavior regardless of situation

The Many-Trait Approach
• Examine many traits simultaneously to determine what type of person tends to perform certain behaviors

The Many-Trait Approach
• Note: What this study is not saying– To interpret the meaning of these traits need
to also interpret the context of the study

• How many adjectives can you use to describe a person?
• Try it!

The Essential-Trait Approach
• Odbert and Allport found over 4,500 adjectives that describe personality traits– 17,953 adjectives overall (but some were not traits)
• Are all of these really independent of each other?
• Essential Approach tries to find how many and which traits are essential
![Page 76: Correlations Small =.10 Medium =.30 Large =.50 Basic Steps 1) Create a test 2) Validate the test 3) Use the test.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/5697bfdc1a28abf838cb13e8/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
The Big Five:History
• Allport and Odbert (1936)– 17,953 trait terms
• Cattell (1943)– Factor analysis finds 35
clusters
• Fiske (1949)– Factor analysis results in 5
factors
• Tupes & Christal (1961)– Replicate Fiske
• Norman (1963) replicates Tupes & Christal, and writes a review about these “big five” traits– Surgency (extraversion)– Agreeableness– Conscientiousness– Emotional stability– Culture
