Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to assess the domains of cognitive abilities and affective styles of adjusting, concealing, and tolerating based on individual differences in morningness and eveningness personality tendencies. Method: For this purpose, initially 304 students of Urmia University were selected through multistage cluster sampling. Then morningness and eveningness types questionnaire was distributed among them to be answered. After analyzing the initial results, 60 participants were selected as individuals with morningness and eveningness and intermediate according to obtained scores in morningness and eveningness questionnaire. Finally, cognitive abilities and affective styles questionnaires were distributed individually among the participants in order to gather the data. The data were analyzed by using descriptive indicators, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), one-way ANOVA and tukey post hoc test. Findings:  Results indicated significant differences between dimensions of cognitive abilities based on tendencies of morningness and eveningness and intermediate and eveningness types in comparison with morning persons had higher abilities in some dimensions including inhibitory control, decision-making and attention.
