Additionally, deliberation was associated with fewer individuals dropping out of the inner circle over time (r = –.08) . Excitement-seeking though showed no significant correlations. These findings suggest that viewing impulsivity as a singular variable would be insufficient, as it could obscure potentially relevant trait-level associations. Moreover, self-discipline and deliberation could prove important for maintaining and growing social networks in older adulthood.  \nAbstract citation ID: igaf122.3855  \nTHE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS: FACETS OF  \nIMPULSIVITY AS CORRELATES OF SOCIAL CIRCLE  \nCHANGE OVER TIME  \nSydney Demchak1, Mary Cox2, Michael Boudreaux3, Thomas Oltmanns2, and Patrick Hill4, 1.

Washington University in St. Louis, Saint Louis, Missouri, United States  \nImpulsivity is a multifaceted trait that influences life outcomes such as financial stability, purposefulness, and connection. The current study examined the relationship between impulsivity and changes in social network during older adulthood. We employed data gathered over the span of three years from participants who were part of the St. Louis Personality and Aging Network.  \nImpulsivity-related traits, such as self-discipline, deliberation, and excitement-seeking, were also assessed to determine more specific associations with the size and stability of older adults’ inner circle, middle circle, and outer circle social ties across two time points. Social circle information was collected from participants (n = 815, mean age: 62.5 years) across two waves, and the NEO Personality Inventory served as the baseline for the level of impulsivity and impulsivity-related traits. Results indicated that global impulsivity showed no significant associations with inner or middle circle size, or with overall social changes over time.","cbCaird94Fk0PDaZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaird94Fk0PDaZ","pdf",1012521,"English","# Study overview\n## Participants and measurement\n## Impulsivity-related traits\n## Key results and implications","[{\"question\":\"What relationship does the study test between impulsivity and social networks?\",\"answer\":\"It examines how impulsivity and impulsivity-related traits relate to changes in social circle ties—inner, middle, and outer circles—across older adulthood over time.\"},{\"question\":\"Which assessment and data collection approach are used?\",\"answer\":\"Impulsivity and related traits are measured using the NEO Personality Inventory, and social circle information is collected from participants across two waves spanning about three years.\"},{\"question\":\"Do the findings show that overall (global) impulsivity predicts social circle changes?\",\"answer\":\"No. Global impulsivity shows no significant associations with inner or middle circle size and no significant link with overall social changes over time.\"}]","The Devil is in the Details - Facets of Impulsivity as Correlates of Social Circle Change Over Time | PDF",1790646003]
