Tactical and impulsive: direct and interactive effects of impulsivity predispositions on chronic use of various self-presentation tactics
摘要
To enhance understanding of how impulsivity relates to self-presentation behavior, we proposed how emotion-based (i.e., Urgency) and cognitive-based (i.e., Lack of Perseverance [LPV] and Lack of Premeditation [LP]) impulsivity relate to various self-presentation tactics. Essentially, we proposed that Urgency (vs. LPV or LP) would have stronger positive relations to egotistical/opportunistic self-presentation tactics and that relations between Urgency and these tactics will be accentuated at higher levels of LP. A sample of US adults (N = 446; Mage = 46.10; 51% female; 78.0% White) completed the Self-Presentation Tactics Scale (Lee et al., Personality and Individual Differences, 26(4), 701–722,
