Paul Kohn
I try to balance between doing well and doing good. Given limited time, notably at my age, that can be a bit of a struggle.Anyway, I think I'm a fairly forthright and straightforward person. What you see and hear is what you get.

Personal Functioning Inventory (PFI), a new measure of
adaptiveness in coping. In Study 1, two adult samples
(Ns of 105 and 101) showed the PFI to be highly reliable
and to correlate substantially with a summed rating scale
for adaptiveness. Study 2 with 140 undergraduates again
showed the PFI to be highly reliable and to relate positively to problem-solving confidence and negatively to
perceived stress. Study 3, a two-wave longitudinal study
with a three-week intersession interval, involved 149
undergraduates at Time 1 and retained 107 at Time 2. It
demonstrated strong reliability and stability for the PFI,
concurrent and predictive positive relations with selfrated adaptiveness and prolonged state anxiety, and discriminant validity against abstract curiosity. Factor
analyses consistently supported a one-factor structure for
the PFI. Possible applications for the scale are noted.
