Subclaims

Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q2 i2 Self-reported SPT propensity correlates moderately with mutually focused conflict resolution styles, but without measuring ability these correlations are difficult to interpret. → Gehlbach 2004

The review reports a study correlating self-reported propensity, measured with the Davis (1983) seven-item subscale (α > .70), with conflict resolution styles, finding "the compromising, r = .29, and integration styles, r = .39". The review notes self-report biases and the unmeasured ability dimension make such correlations hard to interpret.

"Corcoran and Mallinckrodt (2000) found moderate relationships between self-reported perspective taking propensity (using the Davis, 1983 scale) and the two mutually focused styles of conflict resolution (i.e., with the compromising, r = .29, and integration styles, r = .39, of conflict resolution)."
