“…1). Finally, the correlational approach is consistent with the major empirical assaults on the cross-situational consistency assumption (for instance, Aronfreed, 1961;Bem and Allen, 1974;Eberts and Lepper, 1975;Goldberg, 1954;Hartshorne and May, 1928;Linton, 1955;Mischel, 1968;Nelsen, Grinder, and Mutterer, 1969), thus facilitating comparisons with these other studies. For these reasons and others8 the correlational approach was employed in this study.…”

Cappella for their ideas and criticisms.Personality traits are widely employed as antecedent variables in the explanation of communicative behaviors. This study explored the legitimacy of the use of traits by focusing on the conceptual and empirical justification for one assumption of the trait approach: "cross-situational consistency. " This assumption was not supported for the traits of "reticence" or 'predisposition toward verbal behavior." Evidence also raised questions concerning the general validity of this assumption for other, familiar trait variables. Alternative conceptualizations of the trait/behavior relationship were reviewed and briefly critiqued.The purported link between personality and communication behaviors has been the focus of increasing amounts of empirical investigation in the field of communication. Personality variables such as Machiavellianism, selfconcept, introversion, anomie, dogmatism, and anxiety have all been considered as antecedents of an array of communicative acts. Most recently communication scholars have developed a set of personality variables uniquely derived from within our field. Exemplifying this trend are at

“…Another possible explanation, suggested by the predominantly lower class sample in the study finding father identification related to punitiveness (14) is that identification may have different bases in different segments of the population. Identification with the aggressor may more often be the underlying process in the lower class setting with its more traditional orientation toward obedience and more frequent use of physical discipline (I, 5,8,27,34). In the more psychologically oriented middle class, on the other hand, the parental pattern may be more conducive to anaclitic identification.…”
