(2018): Computer scoring of emotional awareness in a nonclinical population of young adults. In: Journal of Personality Assessment 100 (1), S. 107-115. DOI: 10.1080/00223891.2017.1282866
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1080/00223891.2017.1282866 Abstract: The Levels of Emotional Awareness Scale (LEAS; Lane, Quinlan, Schwartz, Walker, & Zeitlin, 1990) is an open-ended measure of the ability to describe emotional reactions. Scoring the LEAS by hand is complex and time consuming (Barchard, Bajgar, Leaf, & Lane, 2010). Therefore, Program for Open-Ended Scoring (POES; Leaf & Barchard, 2010) was designed to score the LEAS quickly and easily. Using 268 undergraduates, this article compares traditional LEAS hand scoring to 6 POES methods, 2 of which are holistic methods that have never before been examined. Based on split-half reliability, correlations with measures of emotional and social intelligence, and partial correlations once response length and vocabulary were partialed out, we recommend 3 of the POES methods when testing nonclinical samples of young adults. Because POES scoring is fast and efficient, it allows more researchers and clinicians to use the LEAS, thus moving away from self-report measures of emotional awareness.

(2013): Development and validation of Social Intelligence Scale for university students. In: Pakistan Journal of Psychological Research 28 (1), S. 65-83
Abstract: The present research was undertaken to develop and validate the social intelligence scale. Attributes of social intelligence were elicited from 35 university students. After empirical validation, 431 university students were asked to rate themselves on the 98 item on a 4-point scale. Factor analysis revealed five factors namely; Social Manipulation (SM), Social Facilitation (SF), Social Empathy (SE), Extroversion (E), and Social Adaptability (SA). SM and SA appeared to be the two ends of social skills judged to be negative and positive. SM comprising rather devious set of items used to exploit others for selfish ends. SA represented honest and sincere interaction with others resulting in mutual benefit. SF was positively related to SE and SA whereas SM was not. Extroversion correlated highly with all factors. Construct validity was established with the help of Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory (Bar-On, 1997) and test retest reliability was also found to be satisfactory. The findings are discussed in terms of the factor structure and function of SI in the context of the culture. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)

(2008) : Neue Wege zur leistungsbasierten Erfassung sozialer Intelligenz und erste Befunde In: Sarges, Werner; Scheffer, David (Hg.): Innovative Ansätze für die Eignungsdiagnostik: Göttingen: Hogrefe, S. 129-143
Abstract: Es wird informiert über die Entwicklung und Validierung des "Magdeburger Tests zur Sozialen Intelligenz" (SIM). Zunächst werden Überlegungen zur Bedeutung sozialer Kompetenzen in der Eignungsdiagnostik angestellt und terminologische Aspekte geklärt. Außerdem werden einige grundlegende methodische Probleme bei der Messung sozialer Intelligenz einschließlich möglicher Lösungen beschrieben: fehlender Theoriebezug; unsystematische Verwendung von Messkonzepten und Aufgabeninhalten; fehlender Realitätsbezug; dekontextualisierte Stimuli. Im SIM wird soziales Verständnis durch Szenarien erfasst. In Aufgaben zum sozialen Gedächtnis werden Probanden in limitierter Darbietungszeit mit sozialen Stimuli konfrontiert, deren Details sie anschließend korrekt erinnern sollen. Bei den Aufgaben zur sozialen Wahrnehmung werden Zielreize präsentiert, auf die die Probanden im anschließend gezeigten Aufgabenmaterial so schnell wie möglich reagieren sollen. Ein Validierung wurde an einer Stichprobe von 126 Studierenden vorgenommen. Strukturbefunde und Befunde zu den Außenbezügen sozialer Intelligenz werden mitgeteilt. Es wird betont, dass es mit den bisherigen Arbeiten gelungen ist, das facettentheoretisch konzipierte Modell der sozialen Intelligenz zu operationalisieren, leistungsbasiert reliabel zu erfassen und einige Aspekte der Konstruktvalidität nach innen (Binnenstruktur) und nach außen (Abgrenzung von der akademischen Intelligenz und allgemeinen auditiven Fähigkeiten) zu belegen.

(2008): The Regret and Disappointment Scale: An instrument for assessing regret and disappointment in decision making.. In: udgment and Decision Making 3 (1), S. 87-99, zuletzt geprüft am 07.07.2018
Abstract: The present article investigates the effectiveness of methods traditionally used to distinguish between the emotions of regret and disappointment and presents a new method--the Regret and Disappointment Scale (RDS)--for assessing the two emotions in decision making research. The validity of the RDS was tested in three studies. Study 1 used two scenarios, one prototypical of regret and the other of disappointment, to test and compare traditional methods ('How much regret do you feel' and 'How much disappointment do you feel') with the RDS. Results showed that only the RDS clearly differentiated between the constructs of regret and disappointment. Study 2 confirmed the validity of the RDS in a real-life scenario, in which both feelings of regret and disappointment could be experienced. Study 2 also demonstrated that the RDS can discriminate between regret and disappointment with results similar to those obtained by using a context-specific scale. Study 3 showed the advantag es of th e RDS over the traditional methods in gambling situations commonly used in decision making research, and provided evidence for the convergent validity of the RDS.

(2008): Theory and measurement of social intelligence as a cognitive performance construct.
Abstract: Examined social intelligence as a construct within the nomological network of existing human-ability constructs. Social intelligence is first discussed within a structural performance model that distinguishes between social understanding, social memory, social perception, and social creativity as the cognitive ability domains. This model also includes a hierarchal assumption in terms of a higher-order social-intelligence factor, and taxonomic considerations are applied that identify additional classificatory principles in definitions of social intelligence. Then, the development of a test battery to assess social intelligence in the operational ability domains (social understanding, social memory, and social perception) is presented. The multitrait-multimethod design included written and spoken language, pictures, and videos, and all tasks were systematically varied in terms of setting as well as number of people involved in situations. Thereafter, 2 empirical studies are presented that were conducted with 126 university students (mean age 21 years) and 182 adults (mean age 28 years), respectively. In both studies, participants completed the test battery of social intelligence, as well as German versions of the Berlin Intelligence Structure Test (BIS-Test), NEO-FFI, a simple reaction time task, a mouse speed task, Readspeed, the Social Behavior Questionnaire (FBS), and a biographical questionnaire. In addition, the participants in Study 2 completed a long-term memory task, an exhaustion questionnaire, the German version of the Social Emotional Intelligence Scale, an empathy questionnaire, the altruism scale of the German version of the FPI-R, and a depression questionnaire. The purpose of the studies was to examine the psychometric properties of social intelligence tasks and to examine construct validity of social intelligence. Results showed sufficient reliability, and a two-factor structural model of social intelligence was confirmed with correlated factors of social understanding and memory. No higher-order general social-intelligence factor was supported in Study 2. Social-intelligence factors were discernible from academic intelligence, whereas the social-memory factor correlated with BIS memory scores. Few gender effects were observed in both studies in favor of women. The results are discussed in regards to their consequences for the social-intelligence construct and the test approach as well as the underlying taxonomic considerations. Finally, considerations about test modifications and extensions are addressed.
