BackgroundThe objective of the present work was to determine whether fluid intelligence scores and individual temperamental traits may be used to predict drivers’ reaction times in movement anticipation tasks.Material and MethodsThe study encompassed 68 young female drivers (aged 20–26 years), who had received their driver’s licenses at least 2 years prior. Anticipatory performance was evaluated using the Perception Anticipation Movement Test (PAMT) consisting of 3 sets of computer tasks differing in the speed of the moving objects. The level of fluid intelligence was determined using Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices, and the temperamental traits with the Pavlovian Temperament Survey.ResultsIntelligence was found to be significantly correlated with reaction time only in the second PAMT task set, for which it was also a good predictor. Findings suggested that a higher level of fluid intelligence in young female drivers was associated with longer reaction times in the movement anticipation task with objects moving at the medium speed level. Temperamental traits did not correlate with reaction times in all movement anticipation tasks, and they did not explain the participants’ performance in the PAMT task sets.ConclusionsThis study expands the current literature by assessing the relationship between fluid intelligence, temperamental traits and reaction times in movement anticipation tasks with objects moving at different speeds. The outcomes of this study are discussed together with those of previous research.

The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between different intensity of creative attitudes and the level of social competences and coping with stress style among first-year students. The theoretical basis was the Stanislaw Popek Theory of Creative Attitudes, Anna Matczak Theory of Social Competences and N.S. Endler and J.D. Parker Theory of Coping with Stress Style. There were 130 students evaluated by Creative Behaviour Questionnaire KANH by S. Popek, Social Competences Inventory KKS by A. Matczak and Stress Coping Strategies Questionnaire CISS by N.S. Endler and J.D. Parker, in Polish adaptation by Szczepaniak, Wrześniewski. It was found that, there are differences in social competence levels and coping style among participants with different intensity of creative attitude. In general, creative people have higher social skills than the people with imitative attitudes. They have higher scores in KKS Inventory than once with imitative attitudes in the following scales: social exposure situations behavior (ES), situations requiring assertive behavior (A) and in the overall result (WL). Also people with medium intensity of creativity have higher social competences than those with imitative attitudes. Participants with creative attitudes are more problems oriented than people with imitative attitudes and with medium level of creativity. They also have lower scores in CISS Questionnaire, in scales: emotion-focused coping, avoidance-focused coping, including involving into substitute activities, like watching TV or playing computer games.
