Background: Very few studies have examined whether the degree of adolescents’ maturity has any effect on their academic performance. Moreover, there are no studies that show whether maturity explains variance additional to that explained by intelligence and personality. For this reason, the main aim of the current study was to determine how
psychol...
Understanding which factors are related to different kinds of aggressive behaviors in adolescents might help to improve violence-prevention programs for schools and families. Although some studies show that adolescents who are less psychologically mature tend to display more behavioral problems, few studies have been performed on the relationship b...
Numerous studies show that intelligence and impulsiveness are important predictors of academic achievement in adolescence. However, it is not clear what contribution is made by the big five personality traits, because some studies suggest that Conscientiousness, Extraversion and Openness to experience are predictors while others show precisely the...
Background:
The aim of the present research was to develop a short measure for the five-factor model personality traits, which allows scores free of social desirability and acquiescence effects to be obtained.
Method:
Scales were created using recently developed methods to control response bias effects in a sample of 3,838 participants from a wi...
This research developed a new test in Spanish to assess psychological maturity in adolescents, called PSYMAS and consisting of the subscales work orientation, identity, and autonomy. PSYMAS was administered to 669 students between 15 and 18 years. The
results showed that the factorial structure of the test is acceptable, and that, in addition to su...
Durante los últimos años ha tenido lugar una creciente polémica relacionada con el acceso de los adolescentes a cuestiones tan delicadas como la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo o las operaciones de cirugía estética. Algunos adolescentes no son lo suficientemente maduros para decidir responsablemente
sobre tales cuestiones, lo que les lleva a v...

... 35 Additionally, it has been found that as the level of psychological maturity increases, individuals' levels of depression decrease, and their life satisfaction increases. 21 Based on all this information and findings, it is considered necessary to examine the relationships between psychological maturity and variables such as positive and negative emotions, life satisfaction, and depression in the context of scale development. ...
... Although precise directional hypotheses for sigma-covariate associations are not necessary, effects similar to those found for other metrics (i.e., intercepts and slopes) are reasonable to expect. For example, it is plausible sigma would vary as a function of age (Allemand et al., 2007;Donnellan & Lucas, 2008;Graham et al., 2020;, for people with higher versus lower education levels or cognitive ability (Aitken Harris et al., 2005;DeYoung et al., 2005;Lawson et al., 2023;Morales-Vives et al., 2020;Mortensen et al., 2014;Stankov, 2018), or due to life events (Denissen et al., 2019;Specht et al., 2011;Wright & Jackson, 2024b). Conversely, it is likely that sigma would not greatly vary as a function of variables that typically account for small differences or are inconsistently related to other metrics of personality (e.g., gender, income; Costa et al., 2001;Denissen et al., 2018;Duckworth et al., 2012;McCrae et al., 1999;Mortensen et al., 2014;Proto & Rustichini, 2015;Schmitt et al., 2008;Weisberg et al., 2011). ...
... Gains in maturity lead to a progressively better control of impulses, which decreases aggressive behaviours (Monahan et al., 2009). In fact, the study by Morales-Vives et al. (2014) shows that more mature adolescents tend to have lower levels of direct and indirect aggressiveness, as they tend solve their problems with others more responsibly, without direct aggressions or behaviours that may harm people more indirectly. However, as far as we know there are no studies on whether maturity (and its components self-reliance, work orientation and identity) also plays a role in peer victimization through indirect aggression in adolescence. ...
... 20 ideation, 21 enhanced academic achievement, 22 and improved cognitive performance. 15 In research conducted within the framework of Self-Determination Theory, significant associations have been observed between psychological maturity and the spectrum of positive and negative emotional experiences. Accordingly, it has been concluded that as individuals' levels of psychological maturity increase, they experience more positive and fewer negative emotions. ...
... La evaluación de los cinco-factores de personalidad se realizó a través de la Escala de evaluación global de la personalidad (Vigil-Colet et al., 2013), que está formada por 40 ítems distribuidos en cinco subescalas, que miden los rasgos del modelo de los cinco-factores (McCrae & Costa, 2008). La instrucción consiste en señalar, en una escala de cinco puntos, el nivel de acuerdo de cada afirmación expresada en los ítems con la forma de pensar y actuar de cada uno. ...
