metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The purpose of the current work was to study the influence of incongruence of an individual’s
  goals and situational affordances on the self-representation in everyday situations. In
  the course of the study, participants (N = 62) first gave a self-assessment of their personality
  traits, after which they defined relevant goals in six pairs of situational vignettes on the SAAP
  scale, then selected adjectives from the list describing their state in situations of congruency
  (CS) and non-congruency (NCS) with their primary goals. Finally, the valence of self-representation
  in CS and NCS was determined. The results of the study showed that in all six pairs
  of compared situations there were changes in goals, from complete or partial replacement
  of goals to important changes in their significance for the respondents. Multiple regression
  analysis allowed us to conclude that situational determinants as explanatory variables can
  better explain the manifestations of agreeableness, extraversion, conscientiousness and openness
  in the NCS, compared to stable traits. However, stable traits explain the manifestations of
  neuroticism in the NCS better than situational characteristics. The results of the study confirm
  the assumption that changed goals cause the manifestation of traits and states that differ from
  stable dispositions. The quantitative analysis of adjectives with positive and negative emotional-
  evaluative meaning showed that in the NCS respondents were 2.57 times more likely to
  choose attributes with a negative emotional-evaluative meaning compared to the CS, which
  confirms the hypothesis of the predominance of negative valence of self-representation in the
  conditions of goal incongruency. The findings indicate that the change in self-representation
  in the NCS significantly and in the theoretically expected way were associated with a change
  in goals as a result of change in situational affordances.
