A comparative study of personality profile and cognitive abilities between physical education and general students

: In the area of psychology and evaluations, two distinct psychological constructs are commonly used: the 16PF (Sixteen Personality Factor) and cognitive ability. The 16PF is a widely used and respected personality evaluation measure. It is intended to assess a person’s personality traits across 16 different variables. The ability to learn, process, and apply knowledge and information is referred to as cognitive ability. It includes a broad variety of cognitive abilities, such as memory, problem-solving, reasoning, language comprehension, and mathematical capabilities. Cognitive skills are essential for learning, making decisions, and adjusting to new circumstances, among other daily activities. Cognitive ability and personality are systematically linked. However, it is debatable whether physical education approaches have a greater influence on personality and cognitive development than general education does. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between personality and cognitive abilities in general students and physical education students.
