  The present study was conducted in order to investigate the predictive power of personality traits for reactions to interpersonal transgressions in university students. The statistical population of the current study, which was conducted in a correlational design, included all students studying at the Persian Gulf University in the academic year of 1402-1401. The sample members include 224 students (96 male and 128 female) who were selected using the multi-stage cluster sampling method. The scales used in this research included Five-factor Personality Questionnaire (McCrae and Costa) and The Transgression-Related Interpersonal Motivations Inventory—18-Item Version (TRIM–18). Data were analyzed using stepwise regression analysis. The findings showed that the two traits of agreeableness (β=0.26, P<0.01), and openness to experience (β=0.21, P<0.01) are direct predictors of the forgiveness reaction. Revenge reaction was directly predicted by trait neuroticism (β=0.44, P<0.01), but reversely predicted by agreeableness (β=0.44, P<0.01), and openness to experience (β=0.23, P<0.01). Avoidance reaction was also inversely predicted by agreeableness (β=0.43, P<0.01) and openness to experience (β=0.25, P<0.01), but it was directly predicted by the trait of neuroticism (β=0.19, P<0.01). Considering the role of personality traits in predicting the type of reactions in interpersonal conflicts, focusing on and strengthening the personality traits that facilitate interpersonal relationships can be an effective prevention factor for interpersonal transgressions.

  AbstractDespite all the advantages to human life, computer-mediated communication has provided a fertile ground for transgressive behaviors. Transgression is a behavior that goes beyond boundaries, conventions, laws, and accepted practices. The way societies confront transgressive behaviors, and the social control methods they employ to decrease these behaviors and reduce their mal-effects are of a high significance. Hence, the current research aimed at instrumentation for the measurement of the factors affecting social control of cybercultural transgressions. In the current research, six steps of instrumentation are presented as follows: 1) Identification and extraction of constructs from literature; 2) Validation of constructs and variables; 3) Validity assessment of item pool; 4) A priori reliability and 5) Post hoc reliability assessment; 6) Construct validity assessment; and also, the results of the instrument implementation including final model’s goodness-of-fit, and power analysis are presented. The results of instrumentation process showed an acceptable validity and reliability for the instrument. The steps outlined in the current research can lead to development of better instruments by researchers. Manuscript profile
