The latter, in turn, displayed significantly higher scores on creativity, bravery, and honesty. Professional classical musicians scored significantly higher than professional non-classical musicians on prudence. Professional musicians scored significantly higher than non-musicians on self-regulation, appreciation of beauty and excellence, and responsiveness to artistic beauty they scored significantly lower than amateurs on judgement and perspective, and lower than both amateurs and non-musicians on teamwork, fairness, and leadership. In total, 324 participants equally distributed among these three subgroups completed the Values in Action Inventory of Strengths (VIA-IS Peterson, Park, & Seligman, 2005), the Engagement with Beauty Scale (EBS Diessner, Solom, Frost, Parsons, & Davidson, 2008), and the Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence Test (ABET Güsewell & Ruch, 2012). jazz, rock, and pop) professional musicians, amateur musicians, and non-musicians were compared. The character strengths and responsiveness to the beautiful and good profiles of classical and non-classical (i.e. The main aim of this study was to further investigate the topic using novel theoretical frameworks: Peterson and Seligman’s (2004) VIA classification, and Güsewell and Ruch’s (2012) responsiveness to the beautiful and good model. However, results were inconclusive and sometimes contradictory.

Until questions about these issues are settled, the SDI should not be used for cross-cultural research purposes. These outcomes were counter-intuitive based on assumptions that were made about each population in the review of literature. Also, mean differences revealed surprising differences on the Analytic-Autonomizing dimension for the American sample and on the Assertive-Directing dimension for the Chinese respondents. Results showed that the subscale reliability for Analytic-Autonomizing dimension was weak in the Chinese population, and the factor analysis exposed stronger results for the American sample than for the Chinese group. It was found that, while the SDI may have value as an educational tool, its utility as a cross-cultural research instrument is questionable, largely due to the ipsative nature of the scales. Validity was examined within each culture separately, and then results were compared between the two cultures. 127 Chinese respondents from Hong Kong were the sample from a collectivistic culture. 564 American participants represented the normative sample within an individualistic culture. The present study sought to validate the SDI as a research instrument for individuals within an individualistic and a collectivistic culture. The Strength Deployment Inventory (SDI) purports to be a universal instrument for measuring three primary motivational values: Altrustic-Nurturing, Assertive-Directing, and Analytic-Autonomizing. ![]()
