项目摘要

Project Summary We propose a collaborative research project in psychology, child development, and behavioral economics investigating the comparability and predictive power of measures of human potential that are regularly used in these fields. Using data collected on common measures of personality traits, executive function (EF) skills, and economic preferences across multiple countries, we will apply rigorous statistical methodology to investigate the relationships among these attributes beginning in pre-adolescence and assess which dimensions best predict health, wellbeing, educational outcomes, wages, and workforce decisions. We will also examine the stability and malleability of child and adolescent traits, skills, and preferences across environments with different contexts and incentive structures. (1) We examine the commonality of traits, and (2) their uniqueness, and (3) the evolution of unique and common traits. We will examine additional measures beyond the traditional ones (for example Guanxi, a trait capturing sociability that is widely used in China) to examine their relationship with the standard measures, and whether they have additional predictive power. Personality traits, EF skills, and economic preferences in childhood and adolescence are important predictors of adult outcomes, including physical and mental health, educational attainment, and employment. Measures of these attributes, such as perseverance and time preference, are increasingly used to evaluate the impacts of childhood interventions, monitor progress in school, forecast health outcomes, and study economic and social inequality. However, little is known about how traits, skills, and preferences evolve and co-evolve across childhood and adolescence. This grant will support collaborative efforts to measure child and adolescent personality traits, EF skills, and economic preferences drawing on expertise from the Center for the Economics of Human Development (University of Chicago), the Educational Testing Service, the briq Institute on Behavior & Inequality (University of Bonn), the Institute of Child Development (University of Minnesota), and the Institute for Economic and Social Research (Jinan University). Using existing data combined with new data collection, we will explore the relationships across elicited trait, skill, and preference measures to determine the extent to which different measurement schemes capture common or distinct aspects of human differences, and if these relationships vary across cultures, gender, ethnicity, and race. Our analysis will standardize across the measures to account for factors that influence responses, leading to increased comparability. We will use our elicited measures and the latent factors underlying them to predict performance in school (e.g., absenteeism, grades, promotion, behavioral problems, graduation), health (e.g., physical, emotional, social), and wages, employment, and occupation. We will examine the stability and evolution of the elicited measures, the malleability of traits, skills, and preferences, the factors that predict these measures (including institutional and family background and parental influences on their children), and the correlates of stability and change throughout childhood and adolescence.

项目摘要我们提出了一个心理学、儿童发展和行为经济学的合作研究项目。调查常用的人类潜能测量方法的可比性和预测能力菲尔兹。使用收集的关于个性特征、执行功能(EF)技能和经济状况的常见测量数据多个国家的偏好，我们将使用严格的统计方法来调查在这些属性中，从青春期前开始并评估哪些维度最能预测健康、幸福感、教育结果、工资和劳动力决定。我们还将检查儿童和儿童的稳定性和延展性不同背景和激励结构的环境中的青少年特征、技能和偏好。(1)我们研究特征的共性，以及(2)它们的独特性，(3)独特和共同特征的进化。我们会考察传统指标之外的其他指标(例如，关系，这是一种广泛体现社交能力的特征在中国中使用)，以检查它们与标准测量的关系，以及它们是否具有额外的预测性权力。儿童和青春期的个性特征、EF技能和经济偏好是重要的预测因素成人结果，包括身心健康、教育程度和就业。这些措施的措施毅力和时间偏好等属性越来越多地被用来评估童年的影响这些措施包括：监测学校进展情况、预测健康结果、研究经济和社会不平等现象。然而，关于特征、技能和偏好是如何在童年和青春期期间进化和共同进化的，我们知之甚少。这笔赠款将支持合作努力，以衡量儿童和青少年的个性特征，EF技能，以及利用人类发展经济学中心的专业知识的经济偏好(华盛顿大学芝加哥)、教育考试服务、BRIQ行为与不平等研究所(波恩大学)、该研究所儿童发展研究所(明尼苏达大学)和经济社会研究所(暨南大学)。利用现有的数据结合新的数据收集，我们将探索引出的特质、技能和用于确定不同测量方案在多大程度上捕获共同或不同方面的偏好度量如果这些关系在不同的文化、性别、种族和种族之间存在差异。我们的分析将对所有措施进行标准化，以考虑影响反应的因素，从而提高可比性。我们将使用我们引出的衡量标准及其背后的潜在因素来预测学校的表现(例如，旷课，成绩，晋升，行为问题，毕业)，健康(例如，身体，情感，社会)，以及工资，就业，和职业。我们将检查引出的措施的稳定性和演变，特征、技能和偏好，预测这些衡量标准的因素(包括机构和家庭背景以及父母的影响 )，以及整个童年和青春期稳定和变化的相关性。
