SAT总成绩，在高中获得的平均成绩，和32个人格变量进行了检查，通过正向多元回归分析，以确定预测GPA的最佳组合，在201个心理学学生的样本。高中时的平均成绩排在第一位，占GPA方差的19%。自我控制排在第二位，SAT排在第三位;这两个因素分别占方差的9%和5%。没有其他预测因素占方差的很大一部分。这种结果模式与其他研究人员使用其他人格测量方法报告的结果一致。有人建议，自我控制或谨慎的整体特质进行系统的评估，并在大学录取决定中使用。
Total SAT score, average grade earned in high school, and 32 personality variables are examined via forward multiple regression analyses to identify the best combination for predicting GPA in a sample of 201 psychology students. Average grade earned in high school enters first, accounting for 19% of the variance in GPA. Self-control enters second, and SAT third; these account for 9% and 5% of the variance, respectively. No other predictors accounted for substantial portions of variance. This pattern of results converges with findings reported by other investigators using other measures of personality. It was recommended that the global trait of self-control or conscientiousness be systematically assessed and used in college admissions decisions.
