- Operationalization
- Participants were asked to define 6 goals for the coming semester. Then they were asked to rate how much each goal was helpfully linked to six "possible futures". These possible futures were construed as higher-level or longer-term objectives, with which semester goals might or might not be consistent. The possible futures included (a)self-acceptance/personal growth, (b)intimacy/friendship, (c)societal contribution,(d)physical attractiveness,(e) popularity/recognition, and (f) financial success. Ratings were made on a 1 (no help) to 9 (very much help) scale. An aggregate Tl
Systemic Integration score was computed by averaging these 36 ratings.
