“…For example, in their research with adolescent boys, John et al (1994) report a variant of the adult Big Five (which they call the "Little Five"), plus two additional factors: Irritability and Activity. Jackson, Paunonen, Fraboni, and Goffin (1996) compared five-and six-factor confirmatory factor analyses of the Personality Research Form (PRF; Jackson, 1984) and found greater support for the six-factor model. Conscientiousness split into an Achievement factor and a Methodicalness factor-similar to Hough's (1992) distinction between Achievement and Conscientiousness.…”

On passe en revue les recherches qui s'attaquent a trois questions importantes pour la psychologie appliquke: les taxinomies, la distorsion intentionnelle et la mesure. Les recherches centrees sur les concepts ont dkbouche sur des progres significatifs dans ce domaine. Le modkle en cinq facteurs est nkanmoins critique parce qu'il confond les concepts, est dependant d'une mCthode et incomplet. La comparaison de mCta-analyses generalisant la validite de concepts de personnalite tires de diffCrents modbles taxinomiques montre que le Big Five masque des relations predicteur-critere importantes. L'accomplissement, par exemple, un concept confondu avec d'autres dans le modele en cinq facteurs, presente, avec les critkres, un ensemble de relations hCtCrogenes avec 1'Extraversion et le Sens des ResponsabilitCs, les deux concepts du modkle en cinq facteurs avec lesquels il est souvent confondu. Bref. les resultats d'une recherche dependent de la structure de la taxinomie utilisee. O n s'interesse aussi aux travaux sur la distorsion intentionnelle (biais volontaire aux inventaires d'auto-evaluation). Les candidats a un poste ne distordent pas leurs rkponses autant que dans les travaux de falsification systematique, et la validit6 prkdicteur-critere des autodescriptions modirement biaisees est a peu pres la m&me que celle des reponses d e bonne foi. Les procCdures de mesure qui ne reposent pas sur l'auto-evaluation sont presentees comme etant des solutions de rechange.Research on three issues important to psychologists in applied settings is reviewed: taxonomies, intentional distortion, and measurement mode. Construct-oriented research has enabled the field to make significant advances. Nonetheless, the five-factor model is criticised because it confounds constructs, is method-bound, and is not comprehensive. A comparison of meta-analytic research summarising the criterion-related validity of personality constructs of different taxonomic models reveals that the Five Factor Model obscures important predictor-criterion relationships. Achievement, for example, a construct that is confounded with other constructs in the Five Factor Model, shows a pattern of relationships with criteria that differs from Extroversion or Conscientiousness-the two Requests for reprints should be sent to Dr. Leaetta M. Hough. The

“…It has been measured as a broad personality trait in both Jackson's Personality Research Form (1984) and Gough and Heilbrun's Adjective CheckList (1983). As an adult personality trait, it tends to have a negative connotation in the U.S., being correlated with neuroticism (Costa and McCrae, 1988) and negatively correlated with autonomy (Jackson, Paunonen, Fraboni, and Goffin, 1996). However, during infancy and childhood such a trait is normative and adaptive.…”

The effect of the nurturant bonding system on child security of attachment and dependency

This paper uses a biopsychosocial theory of human bonding to explore the intergenerational transmission of bonding traits. More specifically, it examines how the nurturant bonding system of the mother affects the succorant bonding system of the young child. In the first section of the paper, we take the bonding framework proposed by Miller and Rodgers (2001) and elaborate its implications for mother-child dyads. Next, we describe the collection of data from 78 mothers prior to their pregnancy with an index child and again when that child is between the ages of two and four and a half. These data allow the creation of a number of mother and child variables that are derived from the bonding framework. Using these variables, we construct a temporally organized, structural equation model of maternal effects on the child, with the two main outcome variables being child security of attachment and child dependency. We then test the model using LISREL. Although the results are tentative and require further confirmatory research, they lend support to three broad hypotheses derived from the bonding framework. In particular, the results support the construct of a motivational substrate that affects both maternal childbearing and her child-rearing behaviors. They also indicate the importance of child temperament in the formation of the succorant bond. Finally, they demonstrate that the preconception nurturant characteristics of the mother have multiple effects on the two main outcome variables, child security of attachment and dependency. Two submodels based on predictors of these two outcomes reveal a number of pathways along which these effects take place. We conclude with a brief discussion of the lessons learned that might strengthen future studies of mother-child bonding and, more generally, the intergenerational transmission of bonding traits.

“…In short, conscientiousness combines two components that work in opposite directions: The result was a minimal net effect on cheating. Future research should take advantage of measures that disentangle these two components (e.g., Jackson, Paunonen, Fraboni, & Goffin, 1996).…”

Despite much research, skepticism remains over the possibility of profiling scholastic cheaters. However, several relevant predictor variables and newer diagnostic tools have been overlooked. We remedy this deficit with a series of three studies. Study 1 was a large-scale survey of a broad range of personality predictors of self-reported cheating. Significant predictors included the Dark Triad (Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy) as well as low agreeableness and low conscientiousness. Only psychopathy remained significant in a multiple regression. Study 2 replicated this pattern using a naturalistic, behavioral indicator of cheating, namely, plagiarism as indexed by the Internet service Turn-It-In. Poor verbal ability was also an independent predictor. Study 3 examined possible motivational mediators of the association between psychopathy and cheating. Unrestrained achievement and moral inhibition were successful mediators whereas fear of punishment was not. Practical implications for researchers and educators are discussed.
