Disentangling the factorial structure of the Greek Big Five Questionnaire for Children – Short Form

The Greek Big Five Questionnaire for Children – Short Form measures the Five Factor Model in childhood and early adolescence. Although the Big Five has been theoretically conceptualized as containing orthogonal dimensions, prior work has revealed noteworthy intercorrelations among the five dimensions suggesting the possible existence of, one or more, general factors underlying the correlations. The so-called General Factor of Personality can be conceived of as the highest-order dimension of personality and related psychological domains, a counterpart of the well-known g-factor in intelligence. The aim of the present research was to further validate the G-BFQ-C-SF's factorial structure by examining alternative higher-order and bifactor models in a large sample of young pre-adolescents. The results supported a bifactor model consisting of a moderate general factor but also five specific factors that account for the unique variance among the items. Multigroup analyses indicated that measurement parameters of the best-fitting model were mostly invariant across gender. Moreover, the scale was found to exhibit longitudinal measurement invariance over a six-month time span. The results of the present study may lead to a better understanding of early adolescent personality and can serve as a basis for more extensive research on the nature of the GFP.

CHANGING SCHOOL-BASED ANXIETY DURING PHYSICAL EDUCATION, TAKING THE INDIVIDUAL TYPOLOGICAL APPROACH INTO ACCOUNT

Purpose of the study: The purpose of the study is to identify changes in school-based anxiety in children aged 12 – 13 during their physical education using a special Program for the individual typological approach implementation.
 Methodology: Two groups had been formed: reference and experimental (25 people each); three methods were used (Method for studying individual typological peculiarities of middle-school children by A. Belov, Method of Kondash's anxiety scale (1973), and Method of identifying general physical education of students); diagnostic testing of physical fitness was conducted (long jump from the spot; lifting the body in 30 sec. (press); push-up (girls); pulling up on the crossbar (boys); running 30 meters, shuttle running 3x10; bending forward from a sitting position).
 Main Findings: The results of the study have been statistically processed with Excel 2000 and STATISTICA 8.0, using the Student's t-test for dependent and independent samples. The M average has been found; the differences have been considered significant at p < 0.05.
 Applications of this study: The Program for the individual typological approach implementation has been compiled with an emphasis on reducing school-based anxiety in children aged 12 – 13; its features, objectives, indicators, criteria, content, and forms of implementation have been substantiated; a set of general physical exercises has been developed for each type of temperament, which includes the exercises for some groups of muscles of the upper shoulder girdle, back muscles, abdomen, and hips.
 Novelty/Originality of this study: The significant improvement in the physical fitness of students from the experimental group compared to the reference one identified during the term proves the efficiency of the implemented physical education program, taking into account the individual typological approach to the personality of adolescents with an emphasis on reducing their school-based anxiety. The results of the study have allowed formulating recommendations for improving the approaches to conducting physical education classes.

Индивидуальность и архетип личности «самость» в подростковом и юношеском возрасте

The article presents the psychological values of the archetypes of personality of K. G. Jung. Based on experimental data, the role of archetypes of personality of Person, Ego and ‘Self’ in the formation of personality’s individuality is shown. At the high school age of 13, the archetype Person dominates over archetype Ego and over other personality’s archetypes. An inverse relationship has been found when, at low indicators of ego, high indicators of the Person scale are demonstrated. With the increasing influence of person, expressing collective unconscious, the leading role of the archetype ego is weakening. In adolescence, differences in the formation of archetypes of personality Person”, Ego and ‘Self’ are found. Provision of L. S. Vygotsky is confirmed, stating that mental functions initially are developed in the collective in the form of relations of children, and then become mental functions of the personality. At the age of 17 years, awareness of one’s Self (Ego) and the archetype of Ego is intensively formed. However, they come to this through the formation of the archetype of person in adolescence and youth. Along with the archetype Ego, the value of the ‘Self’ archetype is increasing. The peak value of the ‘Self’ archetype in adolescence occurs at 20–21 years. Boys and girls begin to become aware of their Ego, to show their individuality under the influence of the ‘Self’ archetype.

청소년 성격평가질문지(PAI-A) 증보판의 요인구조: 일반 및 비행 청소년을 대상으로

이 연구는 일반 청소년과 비행 청소년의 청소년 성격평가질문지(PAI-A) 자료에 내재되어 있는 요인구조를 도출하여 비교하여 그 공통점과 차이점을 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 PAI-A 증보판 31개의 하위척도를 포함하여 39개의 척도로 분석을 실시하였다. 탐색적 요인분석 실시 결과, 두 집단 모두 4~6요인 모형이 적합한 것으로 나타났으나, 설명량이 낮거나 교차적재를 보이는 모형을 제외한 결과 다음과 같이 나타났다. 일반 청소년 집단은 6요인 모형이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났고, 비행 청소년 집단은 5요인 모형이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 다음으로 확인적 요인분석 실시 결과, 앞선 두 모형의 적합도가 수용할 수 있는 수준으로 나타났다. 따라서 PAI-A 증보판의 하위척도가 일반 청소년과 비행 청소년의 특성을 잘 구분하는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 마지막으로 두 집단의 요인구조의 공통점과 차이점을 살펴본 후, 이 연구의 의의와 제한점을 논의되었다.

Dark triad of personality and aggression in adolescents and young people

The present study aims to analyze the relationships between dark triad of personality and aggression in adolescents. Aggression is considered the key factor in the development of criminal behavior, and by deciphering the factors that determine aggression, interventions can be made to prevent and diminish delinquent behavior. In this study, 134 persons between 15 and 28 years old participated, M = 20.48, AS = 2.50, of whom 34 were males and 79 were females. The instruments used to assess the dark personality traits and aggression were The Aggression Questionnaire, BPAQ (α = .89) and Short Dark Triad, SD-3 (α = .79). The results showed that boys have higher levels of physical aggression than girls, while girls have higher levels of anger and hostility than boys. In addition, psychopathy was positively associated with physical aggression, verbal aggression, and anger, Machiavelianism was positively associated with hostility, and narcissism was negatively associated with hostility. Age moderates to some extent the relationship between dark personality traits and physical aggression. Practical implications of these results are disscused.

The moderating role of adolescent personality in associations between psychologically controlling parenting and problem behaviors: A longitudinal examination at the level of within-person change.

Although abundant research has demonstrated associations between psychologically controlling parenting and adolescent problem behavior, little is known about the moderating role of adolescent personality herein. This study examined whether adolescent personality moderates the associations between parental psychological control and internalizing and externalizing problems at the level of within-person change. A 3-wave longitudinal design (N = 198 families, Mage adolescent = 14.89 years, Mage mother = 45.14 years, Mage father = 46.79 years), with 1-year intervals between waves, and using multi-informant assessment was conducted. Multilevel analyses demonstrated that changes in parental psychological control related positively to changes in multi-informant scores of both internalizing and externalizing problems. Evidence for the moderating role of personality was found for only 1 out of 25 interactions in a variable-centered approach and for 2 out of 8 interactions in a person-centered approach. The interactions obtained indicated that a mature personality (i.e., higher scores on emotional stability or membership in a resilient profile in comparison to an overcontrolled profile) buffered against the detrimental effects of psychologically controlling parenting on problem behaviors. Overall, the number of interactions was limited, suggesting only a modest moderating effect of adolescent personality. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).

Factor VIII Use in the Treatment of Breakthrough Bleeds in Hemophilia A Patients without Inhibitors on Emicizumab Prophylaxis: The Phase 3 HAVEN 3 Study Experience

Introduction HAVEN 3 was a phase 3 study investigating the use of emicizumab as prophylaxis in adult and adolescent (≥12 years old) persons with hemophilia A (PwHA) without factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitors (NCT02847637; Mahlangu et al. 2018). HAVEN 3 demonstrated that emicizumab prophylaxis once weekly or every two weeks was safe and highly effective in bleed prevention. The primary analysis of HAVEN 3 included an intrapatient comparison of 48 participants who received FVIII prophylaxis in a non-interventional study (NIS) prior to enrollment in HAVEN 3. Compared with emicizumab prophylaxis during the HAVEN 3 study, emicizumab prophylaxis resulted in an annualized bleed rate that was 68% lower than the rate with previous FVIII prophylaxis (1.5 vs 4.8, p<0.001). No dosing guidance was provided regarding the use of on-demand FVIII in HAVEN 3, and investigators prescribed FVIII at their own discretion. In this subsequent analysis, we characterize the dose and frequency of replacement FVIII used for the treatment of breakthrough bleeding in these 48 participants. Methods The primary comparisons in our analyses are focused on on-demand FVIII use for breakthrough bleeding while participants were on FVIII prophylaxis during the NIS versus its use while on emicizumab prophylaxis during HAVEN 3. Any use of on demand FVIII other than to manage breakthrough bleeding (e.g. prior to activity) was not included in our analyses. Given that, collectively, the total exposure time to emicizumab during HAVEN 3 was more than twice the exposure time to FVIII prophylaxis during the NIS (75.8 vs 28.6 years respectively), any treatment comparisons are drawn on an annualized basis. Annualized on-demand FVIII use was calculated by dividing by the number of days in the efficacy period and multiplying the resulting daily consumption by 365.25 days. The number of infusions and cumulative doses of on-demand FVIII use are described at the participant level as well as at the individual bleed level and are presented descriptively for both the NIS and HAVEN 3 exposure periods. No formal statistical inferences (i.e. calculation of p-values) have been conducted. All analyses were based on an October 2018 data cutoff. Results A total of 48 participants who were treated with FVIII prophylaxis during the NIS were then treated with emicizumab prophylaxis during HAVEN 3 and thus make up the total cohort for our analyses. Annualized infusion rates of on-demand FVIII per participant and cumulative doses of on-demand FVIII (in international units [IU] per kilogram) per participant were higher during the FVIII prophylaxis period when compared with the emicizumab exposure period (mean 15.3 vs 7.2; median 3.6 vs 0.6 annual infusions per participant and mean 602.4 IU/kg vs 209.0 IU/kg; median 75.5 IU/kg vs 19.1 IU/kg, respectively). At the individual bleed level, FVIII infusions and total cumulative dose suggested that participants were administered a similar amount of medication to treat bleeds during both the NIS and HAVEN 3 study periods: median number of infusions per bleed were 1.0 (interquartile range [IQR]=1.0) versus 2.0 (IQR=3.0) and median cumulative doses were 43.5 (IQR=35.1) versus 50.0 (IQR=72.7) IU/kg, respectively (Table 1). Conclusions This analysis revealed a lower annualized infusion rate and a correspondingly lower annualized cumulative dose of FVIII for treatment of breakthrough bleeds during emicizumab prophylaxis compared with FVIII prophylaxis. At the individual bleed level, the amount of on-demand FVIII used per bleeding episode was comparable between NIS and HAVEN 3 exposure periods. Thus, based on this single analysis, it appears that patients received less on-demand FVIII during emicizumab prophylaxis compared with FVIII prophylaxis, as a result of overall reduction of bleed frequency, while the treatment of individual bleeds appeared similar regardless of the prophylaxis therapy administered.

The Resistance to Change Scale: Assessing Dimensionality and Associations with Personality and Wellbeing in Adolescents

Resistance to change (RTC) is the tendency to have a negative attitude toward change. It is a relevant construct in adolescence because change can be perceived as a challenge to the formation of an integrated independent identity: the primary developmental task of this period. Currently, there are no validated measures of RTC for adolescents. To address this research gap, we tested the psychometric properties of the Resistance to Change Scale in a sample of adolescents from Portugal. Confirmatory factor analyses supported modeling the RTC scale via a bifactor model. Statistical indices indicated that RTC scale scores were largely unidimensional. When this model was applied, RTC was positively related with trait reactance, negatively related with wellbeing, and linked to high Harm Avoidance and low Self-Directedness personality dimensions. The bifactor model was equivalent across gender and early vs. late adolescent groups. Our findings suggest that the RTC scale is a psychometrically sound and potentially useful tool for researchers and educators who wish to measure RTC in adolescents.

Association Between High School Personality Phenotype and Dementia 54 Years Later in Results From a National US Sample

Personality phenotype has been associated with subsequent dementia in studies of older adults. However, neuropathologic changes often precede cognitive symptoms by many years and may affect personality itself. Therefore, it is unclear whether supposed dementia-prone personality profiles (high neuroticism and low conscientiousness) are true risk factors or merely reflections of preexisting disease. To examine whether personality during adolescence-a time when preclinical dementia pathology is unlikely to be present-confers risk of dementia in later life and to test whether associations could be accounted for by health factors in adolescence or differed across socioeconomic status (SES). Cohort study in the United States. Participants were members of Project Talent, a national sample of high school students in 1960. Individuals were identified who received a dementia-associated International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) diagnosis code during any year between 2011 and 2013. The dates of our analysis were March 2018 to May 2019. Ten personality traits were measured by the 150-item Project Talent Personality Inventory. Socioeconomic status was measured by a composite based on parental educational level, income, occupation, and property ownership. Participants were also surveyed on demographic factors and height and weight. Medicare records were collected, with dementia diagnoses in the period of 2011 to 2013 classified according to the US Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ICD-9-based algorithm. Cox proportional hazards regression models estimated the relative risk of dementia based on the 10 personality traits, testing interactions with SES and adjusting for demographic confounders. The sample of 82 232 participants was 50.1% female, with a mean (SD) age of 15.8 (1.7) years at baseline and 69.5 (1.2) years at follow-up. Lower risk of dementia was associated with higher levels of vigor (hazard ratio for 1 SD, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.90-0.97; P < .001). Calm and maturity showed protective associations with later dementia that increased with SES. At 1 SD of SES, calm showed a hazard ratio of 0.89 (95% CI, 0.84-0.95; P < .001 for the interaction) and maturity showed a hazard ratio of 0.90 (95% CI, 0.85-0.96; P = .001 for the interaction). This study's findings suggest that the adolescent personality traits associated with later-life dementia are similar to those observed in studies of older persons. Moreover, the reduction in dementia risk associated with a calm and mature adolescent phenotype may be greater at higher levels of SES. Personality phenotype may be a true independent risk factor for dementia by age 70 years, preceding it by almost 5 decades and interacting with adolescent socioeconomic conditions.

Impulsiveness and venturesomeness among juvenile offenders

The aim of this study was to determine possible relationships between delinquency and the personality traits of the juvenile offenders. The research covered a level of impulsiveness, venturesomeness and empathy among offenders placed in a juvenile shelter in comparison to a control group with a clean criminal record. Results analysis show that personality of juvenile offenders in surveyed dimensions was substantially different from the personality of adolescents in the control group. In particular, the impulsiveness level of juvenile offenders was significantly higher, and the empathy level was significantly lower than of control group. There was no significant differences found in a venturesomeness level in this comparison. The presented research problem certainly requires further studies, particularly focusing on the significance of impulsiveness and empathy as a personality dimension in the genesis of juvenile delinquency, but also in the context of social rehabilitation.

Aplikasi Sistem Pakar Untuk Mendiagnosa Gangguan Kepribadian Pada Remaja Dengan Menggunakan Metode Certainty Factor (CF)

Adolescence is a period of increased activity, maturity of sexuality, growth of awareness, and recognition that the time free from problems experienced in childhood is lost forever. So they experience emotional instability as a result of adjusting themselves to new patterns of behavior and social environment. Personality and behavior disorders in adolescents are problems faced by parents and their environment. In this study, this knowledge was obtained from experts, namely psychologists. This study uses an interview method with a Psychologist. The expert system is a system designed to assist in detecting diseases with a dynamic knowledge base. This expert system can deduce the user's illness based on the symptoms of adolescent personality disorders that are entered into the system. As for the purpose of the research is to produce an expert system to assist psychologists in documenting their knowledge. The expert system will display the amount of confidence the symptom has on the possibility of the user's illness. The amount of the trust value is the result of calculations using the Certainty Factor (CF) method. The results obtained from this study are the application of an expert system to diagnose adolescent personality disorders with the certainty factor method by using a computer as a tool to access data&#x0D; Teenagers, Adolescent Personality Disorders, Expert System, Certainty Factor

Personality and phobias in adolescence: age and gender in psychopathological expressions

Background: Although the understanding of adolescent phobias is important, this phenomenon has thus far not been adequately researched. This report, based on clinical experience, highlights prevalent phobic phenomena linked to personality characteristics. Methods: A sample of 241 adolescents from High School and the University of Messina, Italy was evaluated for phobic responses using the SAFA Scales. Personality types and aspects were assessed by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator F Form. Results: The results were consistent with the reported literature and revealed that psychopathological phenomena such as anxiety, obsession, eating disorders and phobias decreased with aging; however, depression remained constant over time. Significant differences emerged regarding gender, with the presence of higher scores on all scales except obsession for the female group. Personality analysis revealed aspects linked to the relations between psychopathological variables, introversion/ extraversion (such as polar dimensions), and rational/ irrational functions. Conclusion: This research indicates that phobic phenomena may be underestimated in adolescents and links personality types and symptoms with phobic phenomena, indicating the potential need for interventions in adolescents.

“For Women, Life Is Right Hard”: When Frazier’s Subjects Speak for Themselves

Abstract While Howard University sociologist E. Franklin Frazier’s sociological materials have been criticized for contributing to the pathologization of black working-class womanhood, Frazier’s interviews also offer a rich archive from which to cull the complexities of inner life that transcend the instrumental renderings of black pathology and the narrow configurations of black women’s urban migration experiences. Specifically, this archive accentuates interiority and brings into relief conceptions of self as articulated by black poor and working-class women themselves. The African American mothers interviewed for E. Franklin Frazier’s Washington, DC, interwar project on black adolescent personality development took advantage of interviewers’ listening ears, sometimes ignoring specific questions to instead share personal stories and unsolicited political ideologies and analytical frameworks. What comes through are narratives of lived experiences, thoughts, feelings, and beliefs that highlight deliberations on sex and sexuality, the institution of marriage, childbearing and childrearing, New Negro conceptualizations of gender, domesticity, and ways in which black women asserted authorial control over their bodies. These articulations suggest (and sometimes exclaim) a desire to speak, a desire for an audience, a desire to be heard and recognized, and demonstrate that black poor and working-class women had a complex, ambivalent relationship to the concepts of both double consciousness and dissemblance.

4.3 DEVELOPMENT OF THE ADOLESCENT PERSONALITY AND MENTAL HEALTH SCREENING QUESTIONNAIRE, THIRD VERSION, IN KOREA

To perform a nationwide mental health screening for all students in their first grade of middle/high school, we developed the Adolescent Personality and Mental Health Problems Screening Questionnaire, Third Version (AMPQ-III).

Гендерные различия тревожности личности и социально-психологической адаптированности у подростков

The features of adolescent personality anxiety are described in the article. It is revealed that anxiety is an important psychological component in adoles-cence that affects the overall state of well-being of the individual and socio-psychological adaptation, especially in situations related to schooling. Long-lived anxiety contributes to the violation of behav-ioral integration and adaptation of the individual, can be the cause of violations of the psychological health of the student. There are gender differences in the manifestation of anxiety and socio-psychological adaptation. Girls are significantly su-perior to boys in terms of the severity of the average level of acceptance of other people and to a greater extent accept the peculiarities of their personality and individuality. High values of emotional discom-fort are significantly more common in girls. Girls are more likely than boys to perceive a threat to their self-esteem.
