In Study 1, eight potential aspects based on constructs related to evaluative functions and motives of NE were investigated. In Study 2, more reliable scales relating to two key aspects of evaluation were developed. In Study 3, these two aspects of NE were compared to other individual differences to identify their relationships. Finally, in Study 4, the two new dimensions were examined for predictive validity. This research demonstrated that people are differentially motivated to engage in evaluation as a means of serving both value-expressive (NE-expressing) and knowledge (NE-learning) functions and produced scales for accurately and reliably measuring these differences. 2014-07-09 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1397492690 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1397492690 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
