Loyola Generativity Scale (LGS)

Loyal سایت روان سنجی : به نظر می رسد که کلمه مقابل درست است .

Generativity is a complex psychosocial construct that can be expressed through societal demand‚ inner desires‚ conscious concerns‚ beliefs‚ commitments‚ behaviors‚ and the overall way in which an adult makes narrative sense of his or her life.
Researchers at the Foley Center have designed a number of measures for assessing individual differences in generativity among adults. Included among these are thematic coding schemes for assessing generative imagery in (a) reports of personal goals or strivings and (b) narrative accounts of significant autobiogrpaphical scenes. The two most commonly used measures‚ however‚ are self-report questionnaires -‎- the Loyola Generativity Scale (LGS) and the Generative Behavior Checklist (GBC).
