Zusammenfassung: An einer Stichprobe von 115 Erwachsenen wurden fünf Hypothesen zur Struktur von Emotionen und zu den Beziehungen zwischen Emotionen und Persönlichkeitseigenschaften überprüft. Die umfangreiche Batterie von Messvariablen umfasste: 3 Verfahren zur Messung der Big Five; das Trierer Inventar zur Verhaltenskontrolle zur Messung des Big Six-Faktors “Hedonismus/Spontaneität”; 7 Skalen von Watson und Clark (1992) sowie 12 neu entwickelte Skalen zur differenzierten Erfassung von Emotionen (in Anlehnung an Davitz, 1969 ). Es wurde eine hierarchische Struktur der Emotionen mit den beiden orthogonalen Faktoren 2. Ordnung “negative Affektivität vs. innere Harmonie” und “Aktiviertheit” sowie den vier Faktoren 1. Ordnung “Missbefinden”, “freudige Aktiviertheit”, “Ängstlichkeit” und “Verärgerung” ermittelt. Das von Watson und Tellegen (1985) postulierte Circumplexmodell der Emotionen ließ sich nicht bestätigen. Zwischen den Big Six sowie den beiden Faktoren 2. Ordnung “Seelische Gesundheit” und “Verhaltenskontrolle” und den Emotionen zeigten sich zum Teil enge Zusammenhänge. Diese wurden vor dem Hintergrund zweier theoretischer Grundpositionen diskutiert.

Language Content

The present study was based on psycholexical approach premises and explored the structure of a large set of personality attribute‐nouns in the Italian language. Content inspection (based on Big Five categories) and quantitative indices were used to interpret the attribute‐noun dimensions. Results showed (a) a stable three‐component solution which replicated the Big Three; (b) an unstable five‐factor solution which did not reproduce the Big Five; (c) an unstable six‐factor solution which represented deviations from the Big Five system, which have been found in most psycholexical studies conducted in the Italian language. The six lexical dimensions were interpreted as follows: Conscientiousness (replicating the III of the Big Five); Self‐Assurance (combining the Big Five I assertiveness and IV fearfulness subcategories); Sociability (defined by the Big Five I sociableness and I impulse expression subcategories); Placidity (combining the Big Five II peacefulness, II unassertiveness, and IV irritableness subcategories); Honesty and Humility (comprising the Big Five II modesty and II helpfulness subcategories plus integrity values); Cleverness and Sophistication (defined by the Big Five V subcategories). The conclusion was that personality word organisation in the Italian language reflects the psycholexical Big Three and Big Six, but not the Big Five. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The Relationship

"A central theme in the present study is the assumption that the influence on the human behavior is mediated by different internal processes in the career choice. Emotional intelligence is defined as a variable which is a cause for the relationship between personality traits and the choice of a certain career. Three causal paths to the dependent variable were tracked – a path to the direct impact of the emotional intelligence on the career choice, a path to the influence of personality traits on the emotional intelligence as well as a path to the impact of personality traits on the career choice via the emotional intelligence. The aim of the study is to show the mediating role of emotional intelligence in the relationship between personality traits and career choice. A total of 100 Bulgarian secondary and university students (42 males and 58 females), aged 17-40 years, were included in the research. The following measures were used for the purpose of the study - Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire – Short Form (TEIQue-SF), The Big five questionnaire and the Big six method for career choices. The Bulgarian version of the emotional intelligence questionnaire was translated and adapted for Bulgarian sociocultural context by Antonina Kardasheva (Kardasheva, 2012). The Big five questionnaire and the Big six method for career choices were adapted for Bulgarian conditions by S. Karabelyova (Karabelyova, 2015). The results showed that there was a direct positive impact of the emotional intelligence on the relationship between the enterprising type and conscientiousness, the artistic type and neuroticism and a negative impact on the relationship between the conventional type and extraversion. The conclusions derived from the study could be used for further psychological research in the field, as well as for enhancing the knowledge of one’s personality."

Situational Information

With the availability of a personality relevant situation taxonomy (Ten Berge & De Raad, 2002), a burning question ahead is whether systematic inclusion of situation references in personality questionnaires does improve their descriptive and predictive capacities. In this paper, the reliability question was addressed, and we investigated for which factors of the Big Five the interjudge‐agreement would increase upon adding situational information. In this study we excluded the fifth factor, Intellectual Autonomy. Two studies were performed, involving a first test in Study 1, and a replication with three tests through varying sets of items in Study 2. In Study 1, trait descriptive adjectives representing four factors were administered twice (N = 182), one time without and one time with situational information. In Study 2 (N = 152), we varied both the trait‐adjectives and the situational trait‐sentences from set to set. All four tests indicated that the interjudge‐agreement for Extraversion generally decreased upon adding situation information, for Agreeableness and Conscientiousness it did not essentially change, and the interjudge‐agreement for Emotional Stability substantially increased. Some explanations and implications are discussed. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract. The Big Five became the foremost model of personality-trait structure in the last three decades, but was formed out of item/variable selections that partially or totally omitted dispositional content related to morality, ethics, integrity, and honesty. Such morality-relevant content has, for several reasons reviewed, extreme importance within the dimension of dispositional tendencies. Previous histories of the Big Five ignore details that account for this pattern of moral-content exclusion, exclusion that tended to impede identification of a key factor in a Big Six or HEXACO model. Here, a set of frequently referenced and highly morality-relevant adjective concepts are identified, based on ratings by 10 judges. The treatment of these concepts enables a tracing of the specific routes and rationales by which exclusion (and partial inclusion) operated in key lexical studies of the archaic period of lexical studies (up through 1993; in English and German), that reveals how variable-selection decisions by early investigators tended to impede identification of an important dimension of personality. Recommendations are offered for future personality-structure research.

Loyalty Card

Recommender systems and personalised marketing algorithms now proliferate our daily lives, harnessing similarity to other profiles to guide our purchasing decisions. Recent research indicates that this personalisation can be good for our well-being, as spending in a way that fits our personality, can engender happiness. Less well-understood however, is the impact personality homophily (where people prefer to connect with others of similar personalities) has on consumer well-being. In this study, we investigate whether individuals who exhibit homophily in their consumption patterns, by buying what others of a similar personality buy, report higher well-being. We analyse over 12,000 personality questionnaires measuring the Big Five and well-being, linked to 3 million loyalty card transaction logs from a multi-national retailer. Personality homophily, or `buying what people like you buy', is quantified by introducing a novel metric, Personality Alignment (PA). Findings show that PA on Extroversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism positively predicts well-being, and that effects are strongest for those higher in Neuroticism. Given the rise of algorithm-assisted decision making, along with growing attention to ethical-AI, these results show that personality homophily can be leveraged in the design of future personalised marketing mechanisms, not just for greater sales, but also customer’s long term well-being.

AbstractThe assessment of personality is crucial not only for scientific inquiries but also for real-world applications such as personnel selection. However, most existing ways to quantify personality traits rely on self-reported scales, which are susceptible to biases such as self-presentational concerns. In this study, we propose and evaluate a novel implicit measure of personality that uses machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict an individual’s levels in the Big Five personality traits from 5 minutes of electroencephalography (EEG) recordings. Results from a large test sample of 196 volunteers indicated that the personality scores derived from the proposed measure converged significantly with a commonly used questionnaire, predicted behavioral indices and psychological adjustment in a manner similar to self-reported scores, and were relatively stable across time. These evaluations suggest that the proposed measure can serve as a viable alternative to conventional personality questionnaires in practice.

The maturity principle and cumulative continuity principle have been fundamental in understanding adult development of personality traits. We tested new predictions derived from both principles for Honesty-Propriety, a factor from the newer Big Six model, as well as for the original Big Five domains. We also tested hypotheses about lower-order Big Five aspects, gender differences in change, and a plateau in rank-order stability in early and middle adulthood. Data came from a national sample of U.S. adults (N = 858) who were assessed via both self- and informant reports in an accelerated longitudinal design with four annual waves. Consistent with the maturity principle, self-reports of Honesty-Propriety increased with age; changes in informant reports were directionally similar but nonsignificant. We also replicated previous findings supporting the maturity principle: Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Emotional Stability all increased with age. Analyses of lower-order aspects showed largely similar patterns of change at a different level of the personality taxonomy. Women increased in Emotional Stability more than men did. In tests of the cumulative continuity principle, we did not find evidence of increasing rank-order stability from age 18 to 58. This suggests a modification to the cumulative continuity principle in which rank-order stability is relatively unchanging across this period of life, what we term the working years plateau.
