Summary
Adolescents' internalizing problems are strongly linked to their own and others' personality perceptions. However, agreement between self- and other-rated personality traits did not predict future internalizing problems over one year.
Area of Science:
- Developmental Psychology
- Adolescent Psychology
- Personality Psychology
Background:
- Developing a coherent self-view is crucial during adolescence.
- Close others' perceptions of personality can influence self-view formation.
- Adolescents' self-view stability impacts mental health and well-being.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the association between self- and other-rated Big Five personality traits agreement and internalizing problems in adolescents.
- To examine cross-sectional and longitudinal relationships over one year.
Main Methods:
- Longitudinal study with 570 Dutch adolescents, their mothers, friends, and siblings.
- Polynomial regression and response surface analyses were used.
- Assessed Big Five personality traits and internalizing problems.
Main Results:
- Strong main effects of self- and other-rated personality on internalizing problems were found.
- Little evidence supported longitudinal associations between self-other personality agreement and internalizing problems.
- Results challenge the generalizability of adult findings on self-other agreement to adolescents.
Conclusions:
- Self- and other-rated personality traits are important for adolescent mental health.
- The beneficial effects of self-other agreement on mental health may not extend to adolescents.
- Future research should further explore self-other agreement in youth.

Here, we present a protocol that provoked cortisol reactivity in a vulnerable adolescent Mexican American sample utilizing a modified version of the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST). Saliva samples were collected at baseline, 15, 30, and 45 min post-TSST onset. Future research could utilize this modified TSST with vulnerable...

Lockup agreements are critical tools during initial public offerings (IPOs) designed to stabilize stock prices and control the supply of shares entering the market. These agreements prevent company insiders, such as founders and venture capital investors, from selling their shares for a set period, typically 90 to 180 days post-IPO.Stabilizing Share SupplyLockup agreements help avoid a sudden influx of shares immediately after an IPO, which could cause an oversupply and a rapid decline in stock...

We developed an accelerated social defeat stress model for adolescent C57BL/6 mice, which works in both males and females and allows exposure during discrete adolescent periods. Exposure to this model induces social avoidance, but only in a subset of defeated male and female mice.

The total of all possible kinds of energy present in a substance is called the internal energy (U), sometimes symbolized as E. Suppose a system with initial internal energy, Uinitial, undergoes a change in energy (transfer of work or heat), and the final internal energy of the system is Ufinal. Change in internal energy equals the difference between Ufinal and Uinitial.
