## 2 Materials and Methods
### Measures  
In this section, we describe our measurement tools. Table 1 summarizes the descriptive statistics and psychometric attributes of the used tools. Apart from the first-year GPA and the university entrance score, all of the measures were collected by a set of surveys. \begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{c c c c c c c c c} \hline \hline

The second survey was the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPI) [49; 50; 51]. This test measures the personality in three main dimensions: extraversion-introversion (E: the tendency to seek peers, activity, and relationships and I is the opposite), neuroticism-emotional stability (N: the tendency of how much people are influenced by environmental emotional cues), and psychoticism (P: this scale is associated with aggression, more masculine behavior, and non-conformity).
