Abstract. The aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties Ten-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI) in a French-speaking sample (1,554 participants, 59.3% women). Our results showed that French version TIPI has acceptable with satisfactory levels temporal stability (after three and six weeks), convergent divergent construct validity relationship Big Five (BFI), emotional intelligence, self-esteem. As other translations TIPI, limitation our adaptation is low level internal...

In the current work, we investigated relationship between career decision ambiguity tolerance (CDAT) and decision-making difficulties among French-speaking university students. a preliminary validation study ( N = 246), examined psychometric properties of CDAT Scale. Our results showed that French Scale had satisfactory levels scale score reliability, its factor structure was consistent with original three-factor structure, it incremental predictive power over general when predicting...

Divergent thinking tests are popular instruments to measure a person’s creativity. They often involve scoring fluency, which refers the count of ideas generated in response prompt. The two-parameter Poisson counts model (2PPCM), generalization Rasch (RPCM) that includes discrimination parameters, has been proposed as useful approach analyze fluency scores creativity tasks, but its estimation was presented context generalized structural equation modeling (GSEM) commercial software (e.g.,...

More specifically, based on approaches creative potential (Lubart et al. , 2011), study proposes distinguish two aspects problem solving: divergent-exploratory thinking, in which managers try generate several solutions a problem; convergent-integrative select elaborate one solution. Design/methodology/approach In study, personality examined as predictor On hand, previous...

Because of their length and objective broad content coverage, very short scales can show limited internal consistency structural validity. We argue that it is because objectives may be better aligned with formative investigations than reflective measurement methods capitalize on overlap. As proofs concept scales, we investigate the Ten-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI).In Study 1, administered TIPI Big Five (BFI) to 938 adults fitted a Multiple Indicators Causes model, which consisted items...

The Consensual Assessment Technique (CAT)—more generally, using product creativity judgments—is a central and actively debated method to assess individual creativity. Despite constant interest in strategies improve its robustness, we argue that most psychometric investigations scoring for CAT data remain constrained by flawed psychometrical framework. We first describe how our traditional statistical account of multiple judgments, which largely revolves around Cronbach’s α sum/average...

This study provides new evidence concerning task specificity in creativity—examining through a cross-cultural perspective the extent to which performance graphic versus verbal creativity tasks (domain specificity) and divergent convergent (process are correlated. The relations between different monocultural multicultural samples of Chinese French children were compared.

What makes individuals experts in judging aesthetic value is actively researched a variety of ways.In the visual domain, one classical paradigm-used "T" (for Taste) tests (Eysenck, 1983)-consists comparing one's evaluative judgments beauty with standard judgment-provided by consensual or expert agreement.The association between general intelligence (g) and performance has been investigated since over 70 years 1940;Myszkowski, Storme, Zenasni, & Lubart, 2014), but led to results, from...

To further understand why a consumer’s choices are influenced by the aesthetic value of products (Hollins & Pugh, 1990; Bloch, 1995; Schmitt Simonson, 1997), individual differences in design-driven consumer must be investigated. Previous empirical work suggests that extent to which one pays attention and is responsive (Bloch, Brunel, Arnold, 2003) Openness experience (Sharpe Ramanaiah, 1999) both linked with materialism. This study aims provide new elements consumers choose well-designed...

Overexcitability corresponds to an overall response stimulations in 5 domains: psychomotor, sensual, intellectual, imaginational, and emotional.

Internal consistency, factorial structure, validity (correlations intelligence, personality, alexithymia) examined. OEQ2 showed satisfactory properties, thus...

Artificial intelligence therapy bots are gaining traction in the psychotherapy marketplace. Yet, only existing study examining efficacy of a bot lacks any meaningful controls for comparison claiming its effectiveness to treat depression. The current aims examine Woebot against three control conditions, including ELIZA, basic (non-“smart”) conversational bot, journaling app, and passive psychoeducation group.
