“…This is in line past investigation pointing out that daughters estimated themselves greater in love than their parents (Neto, 2021a). Overall, these results are consistent with SEI research, as children exhibit the tendency to consider themselves as being brighter than their parents (Furnham et al, 2012;Neto, 2019).…”

Empirical work about love has primarily considered the love of one individual for another. This work uses a novel method to study estimated types of love for self and others based on passionate and companionate theory, and triangular love theory. Two hundred and fifty participants (161 females and 89 males) rated self-estimates and other’s estimates (romantic partners and parents) of global love and several love types. Women self-estimated passionate love, companionate love, intimacy, and commitment more than men did. Gender differences in estimated love types for romantic partners, fathers, and mothers were not evidenced. As regards self-partner differences respondents rated their romantic partners similarly to themselves. Regarding generational differences, children assessed themselves greater in all love types than their parents, except in commitment. Passionate love and commitment significantly predicted global love for self, partners, and parents. Suggestions and limitations are offered.

“…These findings support our second hypothesis. This is in line with SEI works, given that gender mainly impacts self-estimates of intelligence and the gender effects drop in estimates of others (Furnham & Wu, 2014;Neto, 2019;Rammstedt & Rammsayer, 2000).…”

“…In three of the four dimensions of love examined in that study (psychological closeness, sexual love, and romantic obsession) daughters self-estimated themselves higher than their parents. Current findings are globally in line with those from SEI, as children tend to think that they are brighter than their parents (Furnham, 2001;Neto, 2019), replicating the Flynn effect.…”

This study investigated gender differences in how people estimate the intensity and style of love in themselves and in others. The six orientations toward love analyzed were: Eros (sex and passion), Ludus (game-playing), Storge (friendship and intimacy), Pragma (practical ventures), Mania (obsession and possessiveness), and Agape (altruistic love). The sample included 265 students (170 females and 95 males). Respondents evaluated their parents', romantic partners', and own overall love and the six love styles. Women endorsed self-estimates of storge, pragma and agape more than men did. Males assessed their female partners higher in mania. Gender differences in estimates of parental love styles were not found. Concerning self-partner differences, participants estimated their partners as being higher in ludic and manic love. Regarding generational differences, children well-tended to assess themselves higher in love than their fathers and mothers. Multiple regressions indicated that erotic, storgic and agapic love styles were significant predictors of overall love for self, romantic partners, and parents. Results are discussed with reference to previous research and some suggestions for further research are also noted.

“…Self‐estimated intelligence (SEI) refers to the self‐estimates of people regarding their intellectual abilities (Hollig & Preckel, 2005 ). Although SEI has attracted the interest of researchers as mentioned in numerous reviews (Freund & Kasten, 2012 ; Heck et al., 2018 ; Kaufman, 2012 , 2019 ; Neto, 2019 ; Syzmanowicz & Furnham, 2011 ; von Stumm, 2014 ), most studies find weak to moderate correlations between self‐estimated and tested intelligence aspects (Hollig & Preckel, 2005), while other researchers support that there is a reasonably accurate estimation of intelligence score, with correlations between estimates and actual scores ranging between Pearson's r = .2 and r = .4 (Furnham, 2001 ). A possible explanation behind this may be the “self‐esteem bias” (Felson, 1981 ), which can be described as the tendency for people to evaluate themselves in a way that is consistent with their general self‐esteem.…”

Background:Although there is research examining the demographic predictors of self-estimated intelligence (SEI) in young adults, so far SEI in old age is little investigated. This study aims to examine the influence of additional variables such as self-estimated emotional intelligence (SEEQ), physical attractiveness, health, general optimism, religiousness, and working memory (WM) on SEI both in young and older adults.Methods: A total of 159 young (90 women, M age = 28.77, SD = 8.83) and 152 older adults (93 women, M age = 71.92, SD = 6.84) completed a measure of SEI as well as questions regarding the abovementioned variables. Given that WM is considered a very strong predictor of intelligence, neuropsychological assessment included the measurement of WM and phonologically cued semantic retrieval-verbal storage and processing in WM, as assessed by the Digit Span Forward and Verbal Fluency Task. The visual storage in WM was assessed with a variation of the Visual Patterns Test, and the visual storage and processing in WM with the Corsi blocks task (backward). Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS-X) was also administered as a possible influence on cognitive performance and SEI.Results: Young males rated their intelligence quotient (IQ) and emotional quotient (EQ) higher than young females. This was not confirmed for older adults, for which surprisingly the reversed pattern was found. Older women reported higher IQ and EQ than older men. Correlations showed for all participants that the higher they rated their IQ, the higher their ratings of EQ, physical attractiveness, health, and religiousness. No significant correlations between objective tests regarding WM and SEI were found, supporting SEI overestimations. Age, sex, physical attractiveness, and SEEQ were significant predictors of SEI. Discussion: For the first time, a reverse sex difference across age groups in SEI is found.Implications for individuals and healthcare professionals involved in assessment are suggested.
