This study examined the construct of competitiveness, which has been variously defined and operationalize dby pscyhologists for more than 100 years, and its relationto other constructs. Four hypotheses regarding multidimensionality and related constructs were proposed and tested by administering 10 diffrent paper- and -pencil measures to 140 undergraduate students. Two factor analyses (principal axis with varimax rotation) provided evidence of two factors that were labeled self - aggrandizement and interpersonal success. The results suggest that researched should carefully define competitivenes and choose measures that reflect their own definition to improve interpretation of the results.
