Dataset mmLSTrf_RealDataExample

Description

This dataset is a subsample from a larger longitudinal study assessing the Big Five personality traits in both offline (real-world) and online (digital) contexts. Data were collected using the self- and other-rating versions of the Big Five Inventory-2 (BFI-2; Soto and John, 2017b) at two measurement occasions, with an average interval of 11 days.

Format

A data frame with 425 rows and 24 variables

Details

From this broader study, six self-rated items measuring the dimension of Negative Emotionality (N) were selected. These chosen items correspond to those of the short version of the BFI-2 (BFI-2-S; Soto and John, 2017a) and are rated on a five-point Likert scale. Three of the items are true-keyed, and three are false-keyed.

The six items are listed below; the false-keyed are marked with “*”.

  • NAt. Worries a lot.

  • NDt. Tends to feel depressed, blue.

  • NVf. Is emotionally stable, not easily upset*.

  • NAf. Is relaxed, handles stress well*.

  • NDf. Feels secure, comfortable with self*.

  • NVt. Is temperamental, gets emotional easily.

Each item exists in four versions in the dataset, resulting in a total of 24 variables. Items assessing Negative Emotionality in the offline context are labeled with the prefixes “Of1_” (measurement occasion one) and “Of2_” (measurement occasion two), while those in the online context are labeled “On1_” and “On2_” respectively.

The resulting dataset reflects a study design with two fixed situations (offline and online), two measurement occasions, two measurement methods (true- and false-keyed), and three indicators per method (true-keyed: NAt, NDt, NVt; false-keyed: NAf, NDf, NVf).

Note: The dataset contains missing values.
