Psychological properties of situations: the applicability of the Riverside Situational QSort in the Estonian context
Abstract
The current study uses the Riverside Situational Q-Sort (RSQ v 3.15; Wagerman & Funder,
2009) in the Estonian student sample (n = 317), to investigate the applicability of the
measurement tool in Estonia; the overall situational variability among the sample; and how
the situational evaluations differ across the categories of situations. The results indicate that
the tool can be used to measure subjective situational construals in a meaningful way on the
Estonian student sample and that the situational evaluations can be meaningfully reflected on
the basis of both subjective and objective situational categorizations.
