Self-Report Tests of Personality01:22

Self-Report Tests of Personality

686
Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model01:29

Self-Evaluation Maintenance Model

203
The Self-Evaluation Maintenance (SEM) model offers a psychological framework to understand how individuals’ self-esteem is influenced by the achievements of others, particularly those with whom they share close personal bonds. The SEM model operates when personal rather than social identity guides individuals. Central to this model is the notion that individuals have an inherent desire to preserve a favorable self-image, which is continuously shaped by interpersonal comparisons and...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

281
Cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBTs) are grounded in the belief that our thoughts profoundly influence our emotions and actions. Advocates of CBT emphasize three core assumptions: first, that cognitions are identifiable and measurable; second, that they are central to psychological functioning; and third, that irrational or maladaptive beliefs can be replaced with rational and adaptive ones. This transformative approach to therapy has paved the way for specific models such as Albert...

Modeling in Therapy01:26

Modeling in Therapy

325
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

43.4K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry and Psychology
  • Clinical Assessment
  • Mental Health Research

Background:

  • The Self-Injurious Thoughts and Behaviors Interview (SITBI) is a key measure for understanding suicide and self-harm.
  • Advancements in conceptualization and online data collection necessitated a revised instrument.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and psychometrically evaluate a revised version of the SITBI (SITBI-R).
  • To assess the SITBI-R's validity and reliability in both in-person and online self-report formats.

Main Methods:

  • Two studies were conducted to test the SITBI-R.
  • Study 1: Convergent validity with the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale and alternate-forms reliability.
  • Study 2: Test-retest reliability using the online format.

Main Results:

  • The SITBI-R demonstrated strong psychometric properties across both assessment formats.
  • Convergent validity and alternate-forms reliability were robust.
  • Test-retest reliability was strong for the online format, particularly for recent and common outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • The SITBI-R is a reliable and valid measure for key self-injurious outcomes.
  • The revised interview supports both in-person and online data collection for suicide and self-harm research.
