Monika Lohani, Gabrielle N. Pfund, Timothy J. Bono, Patrick L. Hill

Applied Psychology: Health and Well‐Being > 15 > 2 > 723 - 739

Purposefulness may facilitate self‐regulation; however, little is known about the self‐regulatory strategies that are implemented by purposeful individuals. Given the multiple regulatory challenges students face in their social and academic lives, a central aim of the current work was to consider how purposefulness and self‐regulation are linked during the first semester of university.

Correlated change in sense of purpose and romantic relationship quality

Gabrielle N. Pfund, Patrick L. Hill

Personal Relationships > 29 > 4 > 875 - 893

Sense of purpose, or feeling that one has personally meaningful goals and directions guiding them through life, consistently predicts a variety of desirable well‐being, health, and social outcomes. However, work has been limited with respect to evaluating it as a predictor and promoter of romantic relationships or how purpose may develop in these contexts. For instance, healthy romantic relationships...

From adversity to activism: A psychobiographical case study of Cori Bush

Megan E. Wilson, Patrick L. Hill

Journal of Personality > 91 > 1 > 180 - 192

Introduction Cori Bush is a prominent modern activist in the U.S., becoming involved in activism following Michael Brown's death. Bush, like many activists before her, has set clear goals for social change, yet work is needed to understand why Bush (and like others) became an activist when others did not. One potential reason may be that these exemplars found purpose in life in activism. Thus, the...

Examining interests and goals as predictors of gender differences in engineers' pursuit of managerial roles

M. Teresa Cardador, Patrick L. Hill, Grisel Lopez‐Alvarez

Journal of Engineering Education > 111 > 4 > 852 - 867

Background Given the gendering of engineering roles and competencies, the evidence that the skills required for engineering management are widely referred to as social, and the fact that men engineers are stereotyped as more technical, and women as more social, it might be theorized that (a) those that occupy managerial (vs. technical) roles in engineering are more socially oriented, and (b) that...

Why youth are more purposeful than we think

Patrick L. Hill, Anthony L. Burrow

Child Development Perspectives > 15 > 4 > 281 - 286

A core attribute of the positive youth development movement has been to nullify negative perceptions of youth’s capacities. Toward this end, measurement and classification systems benefit from efforts to view youth’s capacities as assets contextualized by developmental potentials and opportunities. In this article, we consider this point with respect to whether youth are purposeful. The prevailing...

Working toward a purpose: Examining the cross‐sectional and longitudinal effects of work characteristics on sense of purpose

Sara J. Weston, Patrick L. Hill, M. Teresa Cardador

Journal of Personality > 89 > 2 > 244 - 257

Objective Employment appears to influence employees' sense of purpose, insofar as work roles can provide life direction and allow individuals to fulfill meaningful aims or have regular goal‐related activity engagement. However, research is needed on which specific characteristics of the work predict employees' sense of purpose. The current study sought to quantitate the degree to which specific work...

Marko Katana, Patrick L. Hill, Mathias Allemand

Journal of Personality > 88 > 5 > 950 - 964

Objective Future time perspective (FTP) refers to individuals’ perceptions of the future as either open‐ended or limited. Despite well‐documented individual differences in FTP across the adult life span, little is known about short‐term variations of FTP within individuals and the within‐person associations between FTP and affective experiences. Method Study 1 used data from a daily diary study...

Future Time Perspective and Gratitude in Daily Life: A Micro‐longitudinal Study

Mathias Allemand, Patrick L. Hill, Cornelia Wrzus

European Journal of Personality > 33 > 3 > 385 - 399

Preliminary cross‐sectional evidence suggests that future time perspective (FTP) is associated with dispositional gratitude, but research on daily perceptions of FTP and their relations to daily gratitude is lacking. In this study, we addressed this gap by examining how FTP and gratitude jointly unfold in daily life and how these relations vary within and across individuals. A micro‐longitudinal design...

Pathways Linking Childhood Personality to Later Life Outcomes

Patrick L. Hill, Grant W. Edmonds, Joshua J. Jackson

Child Development Perspectives > 13 > 2 > 116 - 120

Dispositional characteristics are associated with important life outcomes across the lifespan, often predicting those outcomes decades in advance. Evidence demonstrates that personality characteristics measured during childhood and adolescence uniquely affect later life outcomes above and beyond adult personality. Currently, it is unclear why personality produces unique effects at different life stages,...

Parent-Child Conflict during Elementary School as a Longitudinal Predictor of Sense of Purpose in Emerging Adulthood

Patrick L. Hill, Leah H. Schultz, Joshua J. Jackson, Judy A. Andrews

Journal of Youth and Adolescence > 2019 > 48 > 1 > 145-153

Having a sense of purpose is viewed as a benchmark of adaptive development. Though adolescence and emerging adulthood are viewed as central periods for the development of a purpose, work still is needed to understand the childhood factors that influence this developmental process. The current study provides an initial investigation into whether parent-child conflict during elementary school predicts...

Patrick L. Hill, Nicholas A. Turiano, Daniel K. Mroczek, Anthony L. Burrow

Journal of Research in Personality > 2016 > 65 > C > 38-42

Having a sense of purpose in life appears valuable across life domains, though it remains unclear whether purpose also provides financial value to individuals. The current study examined sense of purpose as a predictor of concurrent and longitudinal income and net worth levels, using two waves of the MIDUS sample of adults (N=4660 across both assessments). Participants who reported a higher sense...

Childhood Personality, Betrayal Trauma, and Leukocyte Telomere Length in Adulthood: A Lifespan Perspective on Conscientiousness and Betrayal Traumas as Predictors of a Biomarker of Cellular Ageing

Grant W. Edmonds, Sarah E. Hampson, Hélène C. F. Côté, Patrick L. Hill, more

European Journal of Personality > 30 > 5 > 426 - 437

Conscientiousness is associated with longevity. As such, identifying the biological pathways linking personality to mortality is important. This study employs longitudinal data spanning >40 years to test prospective associations with leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a potential marker of cellular ageing. Because telomeres shorten over time, and are sensitive to oxidative stress, shorter LTL may...

Patrick L. Hill, Joshua J. Jackson, Nicole Nagy, Gabriel Nagy, more

Journal of Personality > 84 > 2 > 194 - 203

Though it is frequently assumed that the college experience can influence our life goals, this claim has been relatively understudied. The current study examined the role of goals in college major selection, as well as whether major selection influences later goal change. In addition, we examined whether a person's perceptions of his or her peers' goals influence goal setting. Using a sample of German...

Gratitude From Early Adulthood to Old Age

Mathias Allemand, Patrick L. Hill

Journal of Personality > 84 > 1 > 21 - 35

Are there age differences in gratitude from early adulthood to old age? The current studies tested several ways by which an association between age and dispositional gratitude may present, by considering multiple measures on both fronts. We used data from three cross‐sectional studies (total N = 1,736; total age range: 19–94). The results indicated that (a) age effects in gratitude are more likely...
