    Role-play assessments of assertion accurately predict behavior in simulated scenarios but not in real-life situations. Self-report measures of assertion should be interpreted cautiously for predicting actual behavior.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Social Psychology
    • Behavioral Science

    Background:

    • Assessing assertiveness is crucial for understanding social interactions.
    • The external validity of common assessment methods, like role-play and self-report, requires rigorous investigation.
    • Previous research has not fully clarified the generalizability of role-play findings to real-world behaviors.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the external validity of role-play assessments of assertiveness.
    • To compare the predictive power of self-report measures versus role-play in different behavioral contexts.
    • To examine how assertiveness levels are affected by assessment conditions (role-play vs. contrived in vivo).

    Main Methods:

    • A 2x2 factorial design was employed with 32 participants.

  • Independent variables included assertiveness level (high/low) and assessment condition (role-play/contrived in vivo).
  • The Conflict Resolution Inventory served as the selection instrument to measure assertiveness.

    • Main Results:

    • A positive correlation was observed between self-report assertiveness scores and observed behavior in the role-play condition.
    • Self-report scores did not predict behavior in the contrived in vivo (real-life) condition.
    • Assertiveness was enhanced in the role-play setting, whereas it decreased in the contrived in vivo setting.

    Conclusions:

    • Generalizing findings from role-play assessments to naturalistic settings should be done with caution.
    • Self-report measures of assertiveness may not accurately predict behavior in real-world situations.
    • The assessment method significantly influences the manifestation of assertive behavior.
