Abstract
Theory and research are suggesting that personality hardiness is a composite of interrelated attitudes of commitment, control, and challenge that facilitates the management of stressful circumstances by turning them into growth-inducing rather than debilitating experiences. The two studies reported here seek to further our understanding of the overall importance of hardiness in living. The first study determines the correlational pattern between hardiness and the various scales of the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory III and the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory 2. The second study concerns the correlational pattern between hardiness and the five-factor model, as measured by the NEO Five Factor Inventory. The results of both studies suggest that both total hardiness and its components of commitment, control, and challenge express vigorous mental health.
