These tools show how digital technology can expand traditional personality psychology research. Instead of relying only on traditional questionnaires or face-to-face interventions, the researchers used computers to deliver the intervention, digital technology to collect physiological data, and software to analyze the results. The study, therefore, provides an example of how technology can change the way researchers study personality, behavior, and human responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-35f06ea7 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0005796716301681\">Source<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-style-section-1 has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained is-style-section-1--1\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--80);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--80)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-f911b2ec wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);flex-basis:45%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"348\" src=\"https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-23-at-7.35.30-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-69\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-23-at-7.35.30-PM.png 1280w, https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-23-at-7.35.30-PM-300x82.png 300w, https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-23-at-7.35.30-PM-765x208.png 765w, https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Screenshot-2026-09-23-at-7.35.30-PM-1024x278.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:-12vw\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0;flex-basis:50%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-831b2db5 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-text-annotation is-style-text-annotation--2\">Qualtrics Survey Software <\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Qualtrics is a software platform that helps researchers create surveys, collect participants&#8217; responses, and organize the data they provide(<a href=\"https:\/\/classprojects.digitalwcu.org\/DHMPsych\/?page_id=113\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"113\">Qualtrics<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Qualtrics in Project Personality<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Give participants questionnaires<\/strong> \u2014 the adolescents answered questions on a computer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Deliver the intervention<\/strong> \u2014 the computer-based Project Personality activity was presented through Qualtrics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Randomly divide participants<\/strong> \u2014 a randomizer built into Qualtrics assigned participants to either the\u00a0intervention\u00a0or\u00a0control group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> <strong>Collect the information<\/strong> \u2014 the participants&#8217; responses were collected so researchers could compare the two groups.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Qualtrics was useful in Project Personality because it allowed researchers to deliver the computer-based intervention and collect participants&#8217; responses digitally. The study included 96 adolescents, who were randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group. The researchers then compared the groups using questionnaire data and other measurements. Evidence from the study shows that randomization was successful because the intervention and control groups were similar in important characteristics, such as age and family income. The intervention group also showed a significant improvement in growth personality mindsets compared with the control group. This demonstrates how digital tools were useful for collecting and organizing research data, which could then be analyzed to generate new knowledge about personality and mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This connects to Digital Humanities because Digital Humanities uses digital tools to study people, culture, and human behavior. In Project Personality, the digital platform helped researchers collect human responses and convert them into analyzable data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Qualtrics can be used for Digital humanities by analyzing participants&#8217; thoughts, feelings, and behavior into readable, analyzable data that can later be accessed. Qualtrics handles the distribution, questionnaire, and randomized questions to deliver the intervention being studied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Methods used in Research The methods listed below show the advancement of digital humanities in relation to Personality Psychology.
