DescriptionDescription:
For more than a half-century, researchers studying birth order and human behavior have disagreed over the presence, extent, and particular nature of this link. In this session, I suggest that most past research in this subject has been significantly hampered since birth order is a poor proxy for various intra-family variables that determine personality development within families but are often missed in studies. Many past discrepancies in this subject might also be due to methodological issues, such as a failure to account individual variations and their sometimes complicated relationships with birth order, as well as the effect of behavioral environment. This session will describe the findings of a unique study methodology targeted at addressing these issues, which included 438,251 responses gathered via Internet surveys. These findings show considerable suppression of birth order effects, implying that birth order seems to explain up to 10 times the diversity in personality compared to earlier research.
Objectives of Education:
Describe your understanding of birth order and its relevance to personality.
Describe the true causes of birth order effects, given that birth order is really a proxy for certain features of family dynamics that are commonly disregarded in research on this topic.
Describe how context sensitive birth order effects are in the manifestation of personality, which helps to explain why there is still so much disagreement concerning the nature and degree of these effects.*Content and confidentiality may be modified during sessions*
