Abstract

The present study aims to verify the relationship between temporal orientation and quality of vital goals and the role of age, sex and planning level. Also, it aims to study the influence of the vital goals’ quality and the sex on the temporal extension. The Zimbardo & Boyd Time Perspective Inventory was applied, as well as some items from the Boyd & Zimbardo Transcendental Future Time Perspective Inventory and the Nurmi Hopes and fears Questionnaire. By means of cluster and variance analysis, it was found that there is a more adaptive temporal orientation style, which influences planning and that the most relevant variations appear when considering the weight of the goals’ quality on time orientation in interaction with age and sex.
