Children's achievement behaviors in relation to their skill development and temperament

Paths from socioemotional behavior in middle childhood to personality in middle adulthood.
2012
Continuity in individual differences from socioemotional behavior in middle childhood to personality characteristics in middle adulthood was examined on the assumption that they share certain temperament-related elements. Socioemotional characteristics were measured using teacher ratings at ages 8 (N = 369; 53% males) and 14 (95% of the initial sample). Personality was assessed at age 42 (63% of the initial sample; 50% males) using a shortened version of the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI); the Karolinska Scales of Personality (KSP); and the Adult Temperament Questionnaire (ATQ). Three models were tested using structural equation modeling. The results confirmed paths (a) from behavioral …
Lapsen vaikean temperamentin yhteys vanhemmuustyyleihin : vanhemman psyykkisen hyvinvoinnin merkitys yhteyttä muuntavana ja välittävänä tekijänä
2011
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää lapsen vaikean temperamentin, vanhemman psyykkisen hyvinvoinnin ja vanhemmuustyylien välisiä yhteyksiä. Erityisenä kiinnostuksen kohteena oli tutkia vanhemman psyykkisen hyvinvoinnin muuntavia ja välittäviä vaikutuksia lapsen vaikean temperamentin ja vanhemmuustyylien välillä. Tutkimus toteutettiin osana laajempaa Vanhemmat, opettajat ja lapsen oppiminen -tutkimushanketta. Tutkimus perustui poikkileikkausasetelmaan, ja siinä oli mukana 152 ensimmäistä luokkaa käyvää lasta sekä heidän vanhempansa (152 äitiä ja 118 isää). Lapsen vaikeaa temperamenttia tarkasteltiin lapsen negatiivisen emotionaalisuuden, tunnereaktioiden intensiivisyyden, estyneisy…
The role of adolescents' temperament in their positive and negative emotions as well as in psychophysiological reactions during achievement situations
2019
Abstract This study examined the role of adolescents' (n = 190) temperament in their emotional reactions in achievement situations. Adolescents rated their temperament (i.e., surgency/extraversion, negative affectivity, effortful control) and completed achievement tasks in Grade 6. They also reported their emotions before and during challenging and non-challenging tasks. In addition, adolescents' autonomic nervous system reactions (i.e., skin conductance levels) were recorded. The results showed that high effortful control was related to higher levels of positive emotions independent of the degree of task difficulty. Low negative affectivity and high effortful control were related to lower …
The associations of student temperament type, gender and teacher temperament type with adolescent well-being in school
2015
Tässä TIKAPUU – Alakoulusta yläkouluun -pitkittäistutkimukseen kuuluvassa tutkimuksessa selvitettiin (a) suomalaisten kuudesluokkalaisten ja heidän opettajiensa keskuudessa esiintyviä sukupuolieroja temperamentissa, (b) sitä, oliko oppilaiden ja opettajien temperamenttidatasta löydettävissä kolme vakiintunutta temperamenttityyppiä (joustava, alikontrolloiva ja ylikontrolloiva), (c) oppilaiden temperamenttityyppien ja sukupuolten välisiä eroja kouluhyvinvoinnissa, sekä (d) sitä, olivatko oppilaan temperamenttityypin ja sukupuolen yhteydet oppilaan kouluhyvinvointiin erilaisia riippuen opettajan temperamenttityypistä. Itsearviot temperamentista kerättiin 577 oppilaalta ja 40 opettajalta käytt…
Behavioral Inhibition Underlies the Link Between Interoceptive Sensitivity and Anxiety-Related Temperamental Traits
2017
Interoceptive sensitivity is a biologically determined, constitutional trait of an individual. High interoceptive sensitivity has been often associated with proneness to anxiety. This association has been explained by elevated autonomic responsiveness in anxious individuals. However, in a heartbeat discrimination task (discrimination of heartbeats’ simultaneity to an external stimulus) low cardiac responsiveness has accompanied enhanced performance. The relation between these factors seems task dependent, and cannot comprehensively explain the link between interoceptive sensitivity and anxiety. We explored for additional explanatory factors for this link. More specifically, we studied which…
The role of temperament in children's affective and behavioral responses in achievement situations
2013
Abstract Although students' affects and behaviors in achievement situations have been shown to be influenced by their previous learning experiences, less is known about how they relate to students' dispositional characteristics, such as temperament. This study examined to what extent children's temperament is related to their affective and behavioral responses in achievement situations. Teachers rated first-graders' ( n = 153) temperamental characteristics in the Fall semester. Children's active task avoidance, anxiety, and helplessness were rated in test situations in the Fall and Spring semesters. The results showed that the more easily distracted the children were, the more task avoidan…
Child socioemotional behavior and adult temperament as predictors of physical activity and sedentary behavior in late adulthood
2023
Background Most studies investigating the association of temperament with physical activity and sedentary behavior have examined children or adolescents, employed cross-sectional or longitudinal designs that do not extend from childhood into adulthood, and utilized self- or parent-reported data on physical activity and sedentary behavior. This longitudinal study investigated whether socioemotional behavior in childhood and temperament in middle adulthood predict accelerometer-measured physical activity and sedentary behavior in late adulthood. Methods This study was based on the Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Personality and Social Development (JYLS). Socioemotional behavior (behavioral ac…
Associations of temperament and personality traits with frequency of physical activity in adulthood
2020
Temperament and physical activity (PA) have been examined in children and adolescents, but little is known about these associations in adulthood. Personality traits, however, are known to contribute to PA in adults. This study, which examined both temperament and personality characteristics at age 42 in relation to frequency of PA at age 50 (JYLS, n = 214-261), also found associations with temperament traits. Positive associations were found between Orienting sensitivity and overall PA and between Extraversion and vigorous PA among women and between low Negative affectivity and overall and vigorous PA among men. Furthermore, Orienting sensitivity and Agreeableness were associated with vigor…
