Abstract:
The use of other-reports and context-specific personality ratings are two measurement approaches that may enhance the predictive validity of personality measures. Previous empirical studies have found that other raters account for context-specific trait information for their judgments of targets’ affective and cognitive processes, but not for their judgments of targets’ behavior. However, the current study, using an experimental study design that manipulated context as a demand constraint on trait expressions, found that other raters account for context for their judgments of both a highly behavioral trait (i.e., Extraversion) and a highly cognitive trait (i.e., Agreeableness).
