Table 4.
Correlations between Acceleration Indicators & Psychological Well-Being Measures for Study 2
| Measure | Age of High School Graduation | Acceleration Composite |
|---|---|---|
|
| ||
| Core Self-Evaluations | .09 | .09 |
| Positive Affect | .07 | .08 |
| Life Satisfaction | .02 | .10 |
| Negative Affect (Reversed) | .08 | .08 |
| Psychological Flourishing | .09 | .10 |
Note. Despite the fact that multiple hypothesis testing was performed, only two correlations met Cohen’s (1988) threshold for “small” (≤.10 in magnitude); both indicate that more acceleration is associated with better outcomes at age 50.
