  • 1.  Information on Credit Scores

    Posted 09-17-2011 12:18
    Hello,

    My colleagues and I are conducting a study that examines the relationships between a) credit scores and IQ, and b) credit scores and personality (the Big 5 dimensions). To guide us in this project, we ask that anyone who has a database with credit scores and/or IQ and personality variables contact me at sabrinavolpone@aol.com. At that point, I will be happy to let you know more about the project and how you can help! Further, if anyone knows of a publicly available database that includes credit scores and either IQ or personality variables, please let us know. 

    Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide!

    Best regards,
    Sabrina Volpone
