Individual differences in bridging inference processes.
The role of individual differences in bridging-inference processing was studied. Students (n = 135) read passages of short to moderate length. After each one, they answered corresponding questions about inferences that bridged causally related ideas that were either near or far apart in the text. The main hypothesis was that local bridging-inference processing is facilitated by the reader's pre...
متن کاملPersonality Processes and Individual Differences
Functional theories of reputation imply that individuals’ reputations are tied to their history of behavior. However, indirect evidence suggests that the relation between reputation and behavior might be tenuous at best. In 3 studies, the authors tracked the development of reputations among individuals who engaged in multiple negotiation tasks across several weeks. The authors found that on ave...
متن کاملPersonality Processes and Individual Differences
Previous behavior-genetic research on adult personality relied primarily on self-reports or peer reports that may be subject to contrast effects, resulting in biased estimates of genetic and environmental influences. In the German Observational Study of Adult Twins (GOSAT), personality traits of 168 monozygotic (MZ).and 132 dizygotic (DZ) twin pairs were rated on 35 adjective scales, largely ma...

relations and the ability to coordinate goals in working memory as the basis for individual differences. In support of this account, Unsworth & Engle (2005) have recently shown that individual differences in working memory predict performance on Raven. Although other evidence (e.g. Fry & Hale, 1996) suggests that processing speed mediates the relationship between memory and IQ, nonetheless ther...
متن کاملModeling Individual Differences Using Dirichlet Processes
We introduce a Bayesian framework for modeling individual differences, in which subjects are assumed to belong to one of a potentially infinite number of groups. In this model, the groups observed in any particular data set are not viewed as a fixed set that fully explains the variation between individuals, but rather as representatives of a latent, arbitrarily rich structure. As more people ar...
