THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GLOBAL SELF-ASSESSMENT AND TEMPERAMENT AND INTERPERSONAL PERSONALITY-CHARACTERISTICS

The presented study is a follow up of our previous research in which w e dealt with the effects of temperament on the source of global self-a ssessment and with the relationship between partial elements of self-a ssessment and temperament and interpersonal personality characteristic s. The sample in the research consisted of university students (n = 18 8, 72 boys and 116 girls) and high school students (n = 428, 184 boys and 244 girls). To test the level of personality characteristics Eysen ck's personality questionnaire (EOD) and the Interpersonal Diagnosis T est (ICL) were used. Rosenberg's Self-Assessment scale was used to stu dy self-assessment. Unlike tile previous research in which we used cor relation and variance analyses, in this one we tried to clarify the re lationship between self-assessment and temperament and interpersonal p ersonality characteristics using path analysis. The model of tile rela tionship between self-assessment and personality characteristics is di fferent for both genders. In case of bog's interpersonal characteristi cs are represented to a greater degree.
