Allocentrism - Idiocentrism, Self-Consciousness, and Interpersonal Attraction (self-Monitoring, Person Perception, Self-Esteem, Autonomy, Gender Differences)

In a series of studies, I investigated the relation of a broad-base allocentrism-idiocentrism to self-conciousness, self-monitoring, self-esteem, social desirability, and several scales of the Personality Research Form (PRF). I found allocentrism-idiocentrism to be unrelated to any of the non-PRF scales in a direct way. Multiple regression analyses showed the covariates of idiocentrism to differ among men and women. Idiocentric men reported low affiliative needs, high autonomy needs, and were low in private self-consciousness. Idiocentric women were low in succorrance needs.
