Abstract | Traditionally, thinking styles and psychosocial development are considered to be two variables belonging to two different fields, with the former being from differential psychology and the latter from developmental psychology. The present study attempts to build a link between the two by examining the predictive power of thinking styles based on Sternberg s theory of mental self-government for psychosocial development defined in Erikson s theory. Four hundred and twenty-six Chinese university students responded to a survey of thinking styles and psychosocial development. Results indicated that students thinking styles made a significant difference in their psychosocial development, even after their age and gender were taken into consideration. |
