Shaping Perseverance: Evidence of Shared Environmental Effects on Grit and a Task-Based Measure of Persistence Presented: San Diego CA, Society for Personality and Social Psychology Annual Meeting, January 2016 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Society for Personality and Social Psychology Keyword(s): Personality/Big Five Factor Model or Traits; Siblings Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Can persistence be shaped? We report sizable shared environmental effects of persistence in a self-report measure from the Tennessee Twin Study (N=212) and a task-based measure from the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (N=12,686). Both studies show persistence has substantial shared environmental effects, implying that experience can shape the trait. |
