Abstract

What characteristics of grit allow people to pursue long-term goals even in the face of failures and setbacks? This study, by examining changes of negative feedback response on grit, explored the characteristics of grit. We hypothesized that emotional responses to negative feedback would be different as a function of grit and this difference would be greater as time elapses. In order to explore changes of feedback response over time, we measured emotional responses to negative feedback in two different time frames, one immediately after providing the feedback (Time 1) and the other when recalling the feedback (Time 2). When previous emotion level and confounding variables were controlled for, the results of hierarchical analysis showed that grit predicted emotion level at Time 2 with statistical significance. The results showed that people high in grit effectively reduced their negative emotion level and increased positive emotion level when they recalled the negative feedback (T2). Even when given the same negative feedback, people high in grit tend to react more positively to negative feedback than people low in grit as time elapses. This implies that people reacted to negative events differently according to their grit level. The results of this study suggest that grit acts as a buffer against negative feedback.
