Abstract Autism, which is common in individuals with fragile X syndrome, is often difficult to diagnose. We compared the diagnostic classifications of two measures for autism diagnosis, the ADOS and the ADI-R, in addition to the DSM-IV-TR in 63 males with this syndrome. Overall, 30% of the subjects met criteria for autistic disorder and 30% met criteria for PDD-NOS. The classifications on the ADOS and DSM-IV-TR were most similar, whereas the ADI-R classified subjects as autistic much more frequently. We further investigated the relationship of both FMRP and FMR1 mRNA to symptoms of autism in this cohort and found no significant relationship between the measures of autism and molecular features, including FMRP, FMR1 mRNA, and CGG repeat number.

The Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) has included a 4-level risk tolerance measure since 1983. In 2016, the SCF also included an 11-level risk tolerance measure. We compare the two measures, and develop suggestions for using the new measure. While the new measure is seemingly simpler than the old measure, we demonstrate that it does not have a monotonic relationship with owning stock assets, with a pattern similar to the relationship of the old measure to stock ownership. We also identify complex patterns of factors related to different levels of the new measure, for instance education has a negative relationship at one level but positive at another level. Those using the new measure should consider the complex patterns we demonstrate.

From a sample of 400 biologists drawn from American Men and Women of Science, 335 supplied information about their predoctoral experiences and accomplishments. These accomplishments and experiences were related to two measures of adult scientific achievement: (1) number of published articles, and (2) total number of citations received over a 5-year period. The number of published articles correlated significantly with 14 items, most of which could be classified into three conceptual groups: (1) predoctoral productivity, (2) excellence in predoctoral science work, and (3) early interest in science. The number of citations correlated significantly with 16 items, most of which clustered into three categories: (1) awards, (2) predoctoral productivity, and (3) early interest in science. It was concluded that potentially highly creative biologists can often be identified by predoctoral accomplishments and experiences at the graduate school level. Identification at the college level is more difficult, and at the high school level, extremely difficult.

Among some 150 young men, the Crowne-Marlowe scale of need for social approval correlated positively with the amount of distortion (in a socially desirable direction) in self-reports of grades and extracurricular activities. However, this relationship held only among those for whom these events were not so recent and who could reasonably believe that their reports' accuracy would not be checked. For these same individuals, two measures of fear of failure were also positively related to the amount of distortion in reports of grades.

This study aims to study the relationship between emotional intelligence and the dimensions of transformational leadership among the teachers of the Institute of Science and Technology for physical and sports activities at the University of Mohammed Boudiaf in M’sila. It also aims to identify differences in the degree of emotional intelligence and leadership dimensions. The application of two measures of emotional intelligence and the other of the transformational leadership on a random sample of 30 teachers and the results indicate a relationship between the attributes of transformational leadership and emotional intelligence in the study sample. The results also revealed significant differences. The results of the study showed that the degree of the practice of transformational leadership was moderate. The research also identifies the most important recommendations: the need to review the criteria in which university leaders are chosen to be more in tune with the requirements of contemporary changes it supports transformational leadership in universities, attracting and retaining creators, and the need to design training seminars that value the role of emotional intelligence

The relationship of locus of control to two measures of self-esteem was investigated in 84 college students. The Berger and the Cooper-smith measures, which are methodologically different indices of self-esteem, were not consistently related to locus of control. It is suggested that these two scales may be measuring independent and unrelated aspects of self-esteem.
