Abstract
An Updated Update to Personality and Error Monitoring
Highlights
People differ strongly in the degree of error processing, and how errors are interpreted and appraised
The Ne was larger in individuals who scored higher on the “Social Orientation” scale
We recently convincingly demonstrated that one thing those traits have in common is that they predict task engagement, suggesting that task engagement is a common underlying factor that predicts the amplitude of the Ne (Tops and Boksem, 2010)
Summary
People differ strongly in the degree of error processing, and how errors are interpreted and appraised. In a recent study in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, Hoffmann et al (2012) investigated whether a correlate of error monitoring, the error negativity (Ne or ERN), is related to personality factors.
