“…However, we also found latent temporal profiles in this study, an important recent line of research in temporal psychology, replicating some of the profiles found with AATI-TA scores in other languages. We found latent profiles representing positives and negatives as in the Morgan et al (2017) and Cole et al (2017) studies, but we also found a couple profiles not yet described in the literature. One new profile, which we labelled Resilients, has some similarities to the Ambivalent profile found previously (Morgan et al, 2017) and shows how individuals may overcome negatives attitude to the past and have positive attitudes to the present and future.…”

Temporal psychology constructs are an individual difference variable related to behavioral outcomes. Recent research has shown that there are different time attitude profiles based on different configurations of the six Adolescent and Adult Time Inventory-Time Attitude (AATI-TA) subscales. The objective of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of AATI-TA scores in Uruguay and determine the existence of temporal profiles in this context. Participants were a convenience sample of 446 (36.5% males) adults in Uruguay with a mean age of 34.53 years (SD = 13.17, range 18–75 years). Participants completed a sociodemographic questionnaire, the AATI-TA, and questionnaires on intentions, behaviors, and attitudes towards healthy food consumption and physical activity. AATI-TA scores had good reliabilities (> .70). The six-factor solution was supported and invariance by gender and age group was established. We identified five profiles – Resilients, High Positives, Negatives, Present Negatives, and Moderate Positives – which were associated differently with healthy food consumption patterns. Negative profiles were related to higher levels of unhealthy food consumption.

“…Further work suggested that the best outcomes are expected when individuals flexibly allocate their attention among all three time periods (Boniwell & Zimbardo, 2004). Consideration of a temporal focus profile has gained traction lately, with various methodological approaches applied to detect balance (e.g., Boniwell, Osin, Linley, & Ivanchenko, 2010;Cole, Andretta, & McKay, 2017;Stolarski, Bitner, & Zimbardo, 2011;Zhang, Howell, & Stolarski, 2013).…”

“…In addition to the correlational findings, as reported in the Introduction, recent person-centred analyses have also demonstrated substantial associations between time attitude and time perspective profiles and indicators of well being (Alansari et al, 2013;Andretta et al, 2014;Cole et al, 2017;McKay et al, 2016). Importantly, in a longitudinal study, Wells, Morgan, Worrell, Sumnall, and McKay (2016) showed that adolescents who started and remained in positive profiles were less likely to use alcohol and had healthier attitudes towards alcohol, whereas those who transitioned to negative profiles reported more unhealthy drinking behaviors.…”

“…Several profiles have been found, including Positives, Optimists, Balanced, Ambivalents, Negatives, and Pessimists. Importantly, individuals with different profiles differ meaningfully on outcomes, with more positive profiles associated with more adaptive outcomes, including life satisfaction, mental health, and academic success (Alansari et al, 2013;Andretta et al, 2014;Buhl & Lindner, 2009;Cole et al, 2017;McKay, Percy, Cole, Worrell, & Andretta, 2016;Prow, Worrell, Andretta, & Mello, 2016. These differences across profiles have been found in Germany, New Zealand, the UK, and the US.…”

“…Moreover, in two recent studies, ATI-TA scores have been shown to be reliable and structurally valid in samples of young adults attending college (Cole, Andretta, & McKay, 2017;Mello et al, 2016), as well as middle and older adults , leading the authors to rename the instrument the Adolescent and Adult Time Inventory (AATI). The goal of the current study was to examine the psychometric properties of scores on a Slovenian version of the AATI-TA.…”

Abstract:In the present study, we examined the psychometric properties of scores on the newly developed Slovenian version of the Adolescent and Adult Time Inventory-Time Attitudes Scale (AATI-TA) in a sample of 182 Slovenian adolescents. The 30-item AATI-TA assesses positive and negative attitudes towards the past, present, and the future. Time attitudes are particularly important in adolescence due to their association with various educational and psychological outcomes. The AATI-TA is a robust instrument and AATI-TA scores have already been validated in several national contexts worldwide. Due to language differences between Slovene and English, a 24-item version of the AATI-TA was examined in Slovenia. As hypothesized, scores on the 24-item Slovenian version of AATI-TA were internally consistent and structurally valid. Moreover, meaningful correlations between time attitudes and positivity, a basic disposition determining individual well-being, provided evidence of concurrent validity. The results suggest that the Slovenian version of the AATI-TA will be useful in Slovenian research examining time attitudes. Povzetek: V raziskavi smo ugotavljali psihometrične značilnosti slovenske različice inštrumenta Inventar o času za mladostnike in odrasle -Lestvica stališč do časa (AATI-TA) na vzorcu 182 slovenskih mladostnikov. Lestvica vsebuje pozitivna in negativna stališča do preteklosti, sedanjosti in prihodnosti. Ta stališča so še posebej pomembna za obdobje mladostništva, saj so povezana z različnimi izobraževalnimi in psihološkimi izidi. AATI-TA je robusten instrument, ki je že bil validiran v različnih nacionalnih kontekstih po vsem svetu. Kot je bilo predpostavljeno, so bili slovenski rezultati notranje konsistentni in strukturno veljavni. Lestvica stališč je izkazala tudi ustrezno sočasno veljavnost, saj se je pokazala smiselna povezanost med stališči do časa in pozitivnostjo; slednja je opredeljena kot dispozicija, ki določa posameznikovo blagostanje. Rezultati kažejo, da bo slovenska različica AATI-TA koristen inštrument za raziskovanje stališč do časa.
