Abstract. The Circumplex Team Scan (CTS) assesses the degree to which a team’s interaction/communication norms reflect each segment (16th) of the interpersonal circle/circumplex. We developed and evaluated an abbreviated 16-item CTS-16 ...
Abstract: The manuscript describes the construction of the German standard and short version of the EPQ-R by Eysenck and Eysenck (1991). A pilot version was administered to 2914 subjects of a large age span. A principal component analysis of the 100 items ...
Summary: The present article brings up the question to what extent Eysenck's arousal theory of extraversion is still valid in view of numerous recent research results in the field of cognitive neurosciences and biological personality research. Results of ...
Sex differences in the relationship between personality and social competences in adultsAbstract. The concept of social competences plays an important role in many areas of psychological acting. Social competences are the basis for socially competent ...
Is graphology of diagnostic value at all? On the relationship between graphological judgement and psychometric testsAbstract. Handwriting analysis suffers from a lack of acceptance among psychometrically oriented psychodiagnosticians. Methodological ...
The project aims at an analysis of interactions of personality variables and individual peculiarities of self-regulation of one's voluntary activity. A questionnaire to diagnose individual peculiarities of self-regulation has been developed. It includes ...
Abstract. We investigated the performance on a selective attention task in two groups of 8- to 12-year-old healthy children being characterized as extraverted and introverted, respectively. During task performance EEG-activity was recorded to investigate ...
Abstract. Subjects with high and low scores on Eysenck's extraversion scale were presented with a block of 500 tones which was then divided into five subblocks. The subjects' task was to identify a higher-pitched tone (target tones) in a series of lower-...
Abstract. In the present study we analyzed the conceptual relationship of sense of coherence (SOC) to the five-factor model of personality (FFM; i.e., Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness to Experience, Conscientiousness, Agreeableness). Participants (109 ...
Recent research suggests that individual differences in brain dopamine (DA) functioning may be related to the personality dimension of extraversion. The present study was designed to further elucidate the biological mechanisms underlying behavioral ...
Abstract. The Big Five personality dimensions were examined as possible risk, resource, vulnerability, or protective factors in the link between work-family conflict and psychological distress. Data were derived for 75 men and 80 women from the Jyväskylä ...
The principle of regulatory fit implies that managers should demonstrate more transformational leadership, and refrain from critical or detached behavior, if their subordinates exhibit a promotion focus or extraverted personality. Furthermore, emotional ...
In Study 1, individuals high in neuroticism (high N) felt more negative and experienced less decrease of their negative emotions than individuals low in Neuroticism (low N) when extremely unpleasant hypothetical scenarios improved. Study 2 also found that ...

Hans-Jürgen Eysenck suggested that introverts are characterized by greater cortical arousal or arousability than extraverts. This prediction was tested in several studies that used the electroencephalogram (EEG) to index cortical activity, but the ...
Studies have shown that regular drinkers respond to alcohol-related stimuli with increases in urge to drink and changes in affect. Evidence indicates that there is individual variability in responses to alcohol-related cues. The current study aimed to ...
This article explores the contribution of differences in motor response initiation and execution to the biological bases of extraversion. Specifically, we examined individual differences in the lateralized readiness potential (LRP) for introverts and ...
Previous studies showed that extraversion influences social network size. However, it is unclear how extraversion affects the size of different layers of the network, and how extraversion relates to the emotional intensity of social relationships. We ...
In the present study we link self-report-data on personality to behavior recorded on the mobile phone. This new approach from Psychoinformatics collects data from humans in everyday life. It demonstrates the fruitful collaboration between psychology and ...
