surveys let to have a definition of personality: "Personality is the relationship & compatibility
between one's value standards, value scale, value orientation and those of the community and
society. If this relationship is positive, we have a personality development, On the contrary, this
relationship is negative-we have a personality degradation.
5138.58 Correlation between personal behaviour and lying teenager’s behaviour: Gender
distinctions, Alesia Kankova, Belarusian State Pedagogical University,Belarus
Lying by children is considered a serious problem for parents and educators. The aim of research
is to study the stability of consistent lying from 13 to 15 yeas of age, and its correlation with
personal behaviour. Methods: the method of self-estimation of motivation of approval (scale of
falsity) (D.Krawn), the study of personal behavior (T.V.Senko). The results show that there are
correlations between personal and lying behaviour. Teenagers with a high level of falsity show
dominative behavioral forms: the girls demonstrate the positive domination in relation to the
parents, and boys demonstrate the negative domination in relation to the teachers.
5138.59 Why are men more likely to support group-based dominance than women? Michael
Dambrun, Sandra Duarte, Serge Guimond, Lapsco Cnrs Umr 6024, France
The main objective of this study was to test the validity of social dominance theory (SDT) by
contrasting it with a model derived from social identity theory (SIT). More specifically, while SIT
predicts that gender identification mediates the effect of gender on SDO, SDT predicts the reverse.
According to SDT, the degree to which men and women endorse status legitimizing ideology
should determine to what extent they identify with their gender group. Using structural equation
modelling, the results provide strong support for the SIT model and no support for SDT
predictions. Implications of these results are discussed.
5138.60 Gender difference in the relationship between self-construals and psychological
well-being, Hyun-Mi Kim, Hee-Jeong Bang, Ewha Womans University, Korea, Republic Of
The object of this study was to examine the gender difference in the relationship between
self-construal types and psychological well-beings in a sample of Korean undergraduates. We
assumed the Self-Construal model that the relational-interdependent and independent
self-construals are determinants of psychological well-being and the effect of an independent
self-construal on psychological well-being is mediated through self-esteem. By conducting
multi-sample analysis based on the structural equation modeling, it was found that the
Self-Construal model was general-structure across sexual groups. However, both self-construals
were differently influenced on psychological well-being according to gender. The direct effect of
independent self-construal on psychological well-being was significant in males, whereas the
direct effect of relational-independent self-construal on psychological well-being was significant
in females.
