“…As there are a number of other factors that play a role in behavioral processes, it thus remains unclear what is responsible for this gap between positive environmental intentions and limited environmental behavior. It would be interesting to determine whether other psychological processes are behind these results, such as a metaperception [104] that leads Southerners and Generation Xers to inflate their survey responses to overcome an interiorized stereotype that Southern Europeans and older generations are less environmentally committed than Northerners and millennials.…”

This study explores whether there are differences in several environmental dimensions, when the European Region and Generation cohort are considered. In doing so, this study compares millennials in North and South Europe with members of Generation X in three environmental dimensions: attitudes, personal norms, and behavior. Using data from the European Social Survey (n = 6.216), the researchers tested the hypothesis that Northern Europeans and millennials have more pro-environmental standing than southerners and Generation Xers. The findings challenge the common belief that millennials are more committed to being environmentally conscious, showing that many millennials do not feel responsible for their climate footprint, nor do they behave in a way that shows more concern than previous generations to improve their environmental performance. Furthermore, contrary to expectations, Northern European participants are not the most committed, in all environmental dimensions, compared to Southern Europeans.

“…There are also opportunities to explore new domains of interpersonal judgments that have not yet been well-connected to other forms of IPA. Such domains might include the accurate perception of others' pain (e. g. Ruben & Hall, 2013), the accurate appraisal of another person's emotion regulation skills (Murphy, 2014), or the ability to make accurate judgments about how others perceive oneself (meta-perception accuracy; Carlson & Barranti, 2016). Given the expanding interest in IPA, it is hoped that the present meta-analysis will serve as a starting point for future efforts to understand and measure this critical component of social competence.…”

Individual Differences in Interpersonal Accuracy: A Multi-Level Meta-Analysis to Assess Whether Judging Other People is One Skill or Many

Research into individual differences in interpersonal accuracy (IPA; the ability to accurately judge others' emotions, intentions, traits, truthfulness, and other social characteristics) has a long tradition and represents a growing area of interest in psychology. Measuring IPA has proved fruitful for uncovering correlates of this skill. However, despite this tradition and a considerable volume of research, very few efforts have been made to look collectively at the nature of the tests involved in assessing IPA, leaving questions of the broader structure of IPA unresolved. Is IPA a single skill or a clustering of many discrete skills or some combination of partially overlapping skills? In a multi-level meta-analysis of 103 published and unpublished participant samples (13,683 participants), we analyzed 622 correlations between pairs of IPA tests (135 different IPA tests altogether). The overall correlation between IPA tests was r = .19, corrected for the nesting of correlations within the studies that administered more than two IPA tests and reported several correlations for the same participant sample. Test domain and characteristics were evaluated to explain differences in effect sizes; in general, tests in similar domains and using similar methodologies were more highly correlated with each other, suggesting that there are domains within which individual differences cluster. Implications for future research and IPA measurement were discussed.

“…Scholars have studied perceptions held by individuals in a variety of grouping combinations. Metaperception researchers have explored how individuals view other people's views of them (e.g., Carlson & Barranti, 2016; Wilson, 2006). Education researchers have examined the relationships between teachers' perceptions of student abilities and student achievement (e.g., Timmermans, de Boer, & van der Werf, 2016).…”

The Achievement Orientation Model posits students are motivated to do well in school when they believe they have the necessary skills to perform a task (self‐efficacy), find the task meaningful (goal valuation), and see their environment as supportive. When these factors are present, students self‐regulate and achieve. We examined these factors from underachieving gifted students', their parents', and teachers' perspectives. Results indicated teachers recognize students who are confident and not confident about their abilities to be academically successful; however, they are less able to recognize when students value the work they are encountering in school. Parents' perceptions of students' attitudes more closely correlated with students' perceptions than teachers' perceptions correlated with students' perceptions. Teachers and parents appeared to base their perception of the importance students hold for school on their perception of students' self‐regulation. Furthermore, gender differences existed in students' perceptions. Females' self‐efficacy scores were statistically lower than males' self‐efficacy scores, and males' self‐regulation scores were lower than females' self‐regulation scores. We provide suggestions for how school psychologists may use these findings to (a) collect important information from students, teachers, and parents, (b) interpret these data to identify underlying influential factors, and (c) guide the development of appropriate interventions to address student underachievement.
