On the relationship between explicit and implicit self-concept of extraversion and neuroticism

Measuring honesty-humility with an implicit association test (IAT): Construct and criterion validity

“…Likewise, convergence that is excessive may be similarly undesirable, because implicit and self-report measures use different methods to assess dissimilar underlying motives or cognitions (McClelland et al, 1989). As an aside, our study further suggests that this method of convergence may extend beyond the Big Five personality traits (e.g., Kolnes et al, 2021) to traits within the HEXACO framework.…”

“…As one form of construct validity, convergent validity manifests in correlations between measures that assess the same construct using different methods, also known as monotrait-heteromethod correlations (Campbell & Fiske, 1959). Such studies may reveal that measures using implicit and self-report methods respectively are related, but still measure distinct constructs, for example measures of ethnocentrism (Cunningham et al, 2004) and extraversion and neuroticism (Kolnes et al, 2021).…”

“…Following Kolnes et al (2021), we used CFA to test the convergence of the implicit versus self-report measurement method for honestyhumility and expected that: Hypothesis 1. Implicit honesty-humility (i.e., the IAT-HH) and self-reported honesty-humility have a low to medium positive relation with each other (H1).…”

“…To show convergent validity (Campbell & Fiske, 1959), IAT scores should covary 1 with scores from other assessment methods used to measure the same construct. For example, recent research shows that, although self-report and implicit measures of extraversion and neuroticism converge, they appear to measure distinct constructs (Kolnes et al, 2021). This raises questions about convergent validity (across methods) to assess other personality traits.…”

Analysis of the Pre-Service Teachers’ Academic Stress Based on Their Self-Concept and Personality

“…This may be due to the fact that the physical self-concept is linked to a higher level of physical activity and, therefore, a release of stress [40]. Additionally, having a higher physical self-concept makes the neurotic personality trait less frequent [41]. Recent research has found that physical activity increased participants' awareness of their health status and decreased unhealthy neuroticism [42].…”
