interpretation of the Circumplex Scales of Intergroup Goals (CSIG) can be found in:

circle model of goals for interactions between groups. Personality and
Social Psychology Bulletin, 40, 433-449. doi:10.1177/0146167213514280

Below is the original English-language version. A German version can be found in
Aydin et al.
(2019a) and a Hebrew version can be found
here.
Note: The one-sentence instructions at the top of
the CSIG form will vary across applications. The instructions shown below are
those used in Studies 1-4 of Locke (2014), where the context was
international relations. However, if the context is inter-organizational
relations, then the instructions might ask about “other organizations”; if the
context is inter-ethnic relations, then the instructions might ask about “other
ethnic groups”; and so on.
For each item below, answer the following question:
When my country’s representatives or leaders interact with representatives or
leaders of other countries, how important is it that we act or appear or are
treated in this way?
|
it is not at all important that... |
it is somewhat important that... |
it is moderately important that... |
it is very important that... |
it is extremely important that... |

SAMPLE SPSS SYNTAX FOR CALCULATING CSIG SCORES:
* Compute octant scores.
* PA = Agentic, BC = Agentic & Uncommunal, DE = Uncommunal, FG = Unagentic & Uncommunal
* HI = Unagentic, JK = Unagentic & Communal, LM = Communal, NO = Agentic & Communal.
COMPUTE JK = (CSIG01+CSIG09+CSIG17+CSIG25)/4.
COMPUTE DE = (CSIG02+CSIG10+CSIG18+CSIG26)/4.
COMPUTE NO = (CSIG03+CSIG11+CSIG19+CSIG27)/4.
COMPUTE HI = (CSIG04+CSIG12+CSIG20+CSIG28)/4.
COMPUTE BC = (CSIG05+CSIG13+CSIG21+CSIG29)/4.
COMPUTE LM = (CSIG06+CSIG14+CSIG22+CSIG30)/4.
COMPUTE FG = (CSIG07+CSIG15+CSIG23+CSIG31)/4.
COMPUTE PA = (CSIG08+CSIG16+CSIG24+CSIG32)/4.
* Compute "Structural
Summary" parameters.
* Compute
overall agentic and communal vectors.
COMPUTE AGENTIC
= 0.25*(PA-HI+(.707*(BC+NO-FG-JK))).
COMPUTE COMMUNAL
= 0.25*(LM-DE+(.707*(NO+JK-FG-BC))).
* Compute "vector length" or "amplitude"
(AMP).
COMPUTE AMP = SQRT((AGENTIC**2)+(COMMUNAL**2)).
* Compute overall mean or "response elevation" (ELE).
COMPUTE ELE = MEAN(PA,BC,DE,FG,HI,JK,LM,NO).
* Compute Sum of Squared Deviations.
COMPUTE SStot =((PA-ELE)**2)+((BC-ELE)**2)+((DE-ELE)**2)+((FG-ELE)**2)+((HI-ELE)**2)+((JK-ELE)**2)+((LM-ELE)**2)+((NO-ELE)**2).
* Compute Circumplex Goodness-of-Fit (R-squared = SSpredicted / SSobserved).
COMPUTE R2 =(4*(AMP**2)/SStot).
* NOTE: A simpler SPSS command to compute R2 without computing SStot above
is:.
COMPUTE R2 =(4*(AMP**2)/((VARIANCE(PA,BC,DE,FG,HI,JK,LM,NO))*7)).
* Compute Angular Displacement or Circumplex Angle (ANG)
COMPUTE Slope = AGENTIC/COMMUNAL.
IF (AGENTIC>0 and COMMUNAL>0) ANG = 000+artan(Slope)*(180/3.14159).
IF (AGENTIC>0 and COMMUNAL<0) ANG = 180+artan(Slope)*(180/3.14159).
IF (AGENTIC<0 and COMMUNAL>0) ANG = 360+artan(Slope)*(180/3.14159).
IF (AGENTIC<0 and COMMUNAL<0) ANG = 180+artan(Slope)*(180/3.14159).
* Compute ipsative scores (i.e.,
scores centered around respondent’s mean score)..
COMPUTE iPA=(PA-ELE).
COMPUTE iBC=(BC-ELE).
COMPUTE iDE=(DE-ELE).
COMPUTE iFG=(FG-ELE).
COMPUTE iHI=(HI-ELE).
COMPUTE iJK=(JK-ELE).
COMPUTE iLM=(LM-ELE).
COMPUTE iNO=(NO-ELE).
