Too depleted to work? A daily study on how work-related ICT use after hours influences employee next-day work procrastination behaviour

ABSTRACT Although studies have shown that work-related information communication technology (WICT) use after hours may result in adverse effects within workdays, little is known about whether and how it affects employees’ next-day work behaviours. Based on ego depletion theory, we examined the effect of WICT use after hours on next-day work procrastination behaviour and investigated its underlying mechanism and boundary conditions. To examine the hypotheses, we conducted a daily survey of 105 Master of Public Administration (MPA) enrolees over 10 workdays. The results showed that WICT use after hours increased next-day work procrastination behaviour through next-morning self-control depletion. Moreover, conscientiousness moderated the relationship between morning self-control depletion and work procrastination behaviour, such that morning self-control depletion was positively associated with work procrastination behaviour only for employees with low levels of conscientiousness. Theoretical contributions and managerial implications are further discussed.

The leading role of personality in concerns about autonomous vehicles.

Development of autonomous vehicles (AVs) is growing in a rapid rate, however, the most dominant barriers in their adoption seem to be rather psychological than technical. The present online survey study aimed to investigate which demographical and personality dimensions predict attitudes towards AVs on a Hungarian sample (N = 328). Data was collected by convenience and snowball sampling. Three-level hierarchical regression models were applied: in the first level, demographical variables, then general personality traits and third, attitude-like personality factors were entered. We demonstrated that the predictive effect of age, gender and education disappeared when personality dimensions were included into the models. Importantly, more positive general attitudes towards technology and higher optimism regarding innovations predicted eagerness to adopt AVs. On the other hand, individuals with more negative attitudes and higher dependence on technology as well as those with lower level of Sensory Sensation Seeking and higher level of Conscientiousness were more concerned about AVs. Our results suggest that AV acceptance cannot be regarded as a one-dimensional construct and that certain personality traits might be stronger predictors of AV acceptance than demographical factors.

Personality Traits and Family SES Moderate the Relationship between Media Multitasking and Reasoning Performance.

The prevalence of media multitasking has raised concerns regarding its potential impact on cognitive abilities. Despite increasing attention given to this topic, there remains no consensus on how media multitasking is related to cognitive performance. This study aims to shed light on this issue by examining whether and how personality traits and family socioeconomic status (SES) moderate the relationship between media multitasking and reasoning performance. To this end, a large sample of university students (n = 777) completed a battery of measures, including the Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices, the Media Multitasking Inventory, the Big Five Inventory, the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale, the Grit Scale, and the Family SES Questionnaire. Results revealed a negative correlation between media multitasking and reasoning performance. However, this relationship was substantially moderated by conscientiousness, extraversion, openness, and family SES. Specifically, media multitasking was more detrimental to reasoning performance among individuals with lower levels of conscientiousness, extraversion, openness, and family SES, whereas it was less detrimental to counterparts with higher levels of these personality traits and family SES. The proposed moderation model, for the first time, not only offers novel insights into the theoretical accounts regarding how media multitasking relates to cognitive abilities, but also identifies the protective factors that may buffer the negative impacts of media multitasking.

Prodromal or mild Alzheimer's disease: Influence of neuropsychiatric symptoms and premordid personality on caregivers' burden

AbstractObjectiveIn Alzheimer's disease (AD), the burden on caregivers is influenced by various factors, including the stage of disease progression and neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS). To date, there has been limited research examining how patient's premorbid personality could affect this burden. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of both premorbid personality and NPS in individuals with prodromal to mild AD on their caregivers' burden.MethodOne hundred eighty participants with prodromal or mild AD drown from the PACO (in French: Personnalité Alzheimer COmportement) cohort were included. Personality was assessed by the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO‐PI‐R). Neuropsychiatric symptoms were measured with the short version of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI‐Q), and caregiver burden was evaluated with the Zarit burden scale. Relationships between personality, Neuro‐Psychiatric Inventory (NPI) scores, and caregiver burden were determined using multivariate linear regressions controlled for age, sex, educational level, and Mini Mental State Examination.ResultsThe total NPI score was related to increased burden (beta = 0.45; p < 0.001). High level of neuroticism (beta = 0.254; p = 0.003) et low level of conscientiousness (beta = ‐ 0.233; p = 0.005) were associated higher burden. Extraversion (beta = −0.185; p = 0.027) and conscientiousness (beta = −0.35; p = 0.006) were negatively associated with burden. In contrast, neuroticism, openness and agreeableness were not correlated with burden. When adjusted on total NPI score, the relationship between extraversion and conscientiousness didn't persist.ConclusionOur results suggest that premorbid personality of patients with prodromal to mild Alzheimer influence caregivers's burden, with a protective effect of a high level of extraversion and conscientiousness.

Conscientiousness and Resilience in Millennial and Generation-Z Employees

Conscientiousness and Resilience are two vital traits for the efficient and effective functioning as well as for the growth and productivity of an employee in an organisational setting. Thus, the following study attempts to throw light on the interplay of these two variables that enable employees to thrive in today’s work environment; thereby providing an impetus for other studies happening in the field of industrial psychology that venture into the rapidly changing dynamics of the modern-day work arena; seeking to explore the new heights of organisational excellence. The study was conducted on a population sample of 200 employees- 100 from Millennial and 100 from Conscientiousness from the organised sector, attempting to study the differences in levels of Conscientiousness and Resilience, as well their level of correlation and influence. The study found that there was no significant difference in the levels of conscientiousness among millennial and Gen-Z employees. It also proved that there was a significant difference in levels of resilience among Millennial and Gen-Z employees. The study also gave evidence for a significant correlation between the two variables. It also proved that there was a significant influence of Conscientiousness on Resilience among Millennial and Gen-Z employees.

The mediating effect of post-traumatic growth on the relationship between personality traits and resilience among a sample of Lebanese adults.

Resilience plays a crucial role in mental health promotion and prevention, and was shown to be more represented in individuals who exhibit high levels of extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. However, there is a lack of studies that comprehensively investigate the association between personality traits and resilience in Lebanon and Arab countries more broadly. The purpose of the present study was to complement the literature by investigating the direct and indirect effects between the five personality traits and resilience among a sample of Lebanese adults through the intermediary role of posttraumatic growth. A cross-sectional study was carried out between May and July 2022, and enrolled 387 participants, all aged above 18 years old and recruited from all Lebanon governorates. The questionnaire used included socio-demographic questions, and the following scales: Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) to assess resilience, post traumatic growth (PTG), and Big Five Inventory (BFI-2). The SPSS software v.25 was used for the statistical analysis. Post-traumatic growth mediated the association between extraversion / agreeableness / conscientiousness and resilience. Higher extraversion / agreeableness / conscientiousness was significantly associated with more post-traumatic growth. Higher post-traumatic growth was significantly associated with more resilience. Extraversion, but not agreeableness and conscientiousness, was significantly and directly associated with more resilience. Findings suggest that fostering PTG in individuals who experience adversity can help promote their resilience. Hence, it could be beneficial to design and apply programs aiming at supporting PTG among people who experience stressful and traumatizing situations, to consequently help them increase their sense of resilience.

The personality of a personality cult? Personality characteristics of Donald Trump's most loyal supporters

AbstractThe unusually loyal supporters of Donald Trump are often described as a cult. How can we understand this extreme phenomenon in U.S. politics? We develop theoretical expectations and use the Big Five personality dimensions to investigate whether Trump's most loyal supporters share personality characteristics that might make them inclined to cult‐like support. We find that (1) Trump's supporters share high levels of Conscientiousness; (2) this is substantively and statistically distinguishable from the commonly identified association between Conscientiousness and Conservatism; and (3) the association is highly robust to a range of sensitivity tests. Our main findings are robust across two surveys. Study 1 is an online survey conducted in 2021 designed specifically for this project. Study 2 is the 2016 American National Election Study (ANES).

Associations between personality traits and different types of mobile phone use while driving: A cross-sectional study

This study investigated the interplay between personality traits and mobile phone use while driving (MPUWD) among 392 drivers in Zahedan. The study revealed that individuals with higher levels of agreeableness and conscientiousness were less likely to MPUWD. For each unit increase in agreeableness or conscientiousness, there was an 8 % decrease in the odds of MPUWD, along with decreases in various phone-related activities. Conversely, individuals with higher levels of neuroticism were more likely to engage in MPUWD, with increased odds for various activities. Open-minded individuals tended to avoid MPUWD, showing decreases in odds for certain activities with each unit increase. Additionally, higher extraversion scores were associated with decreased odds of taking pictures while driving. Notably, the study highlighted the positive association between agreeableness and hands-free MPUWD. Additionally, the study demonstrated that personality traits molded TBP constructs and moral norms. The multiple regression model revealed that agreeableness exhibited significant relationships with behavior intention, while conscientiousness was linked to attitude, perceived behavior control, and subjective norms. Furthermore, moral norms demonstrated significant associations with both agreeableness and conscientiousness. However, the study's reliance on self-reported measures may introduce biases, highlighting the importance of incorporating objective measures and observational data in future research to enhance validity.

Aggression and the Big Five Personality Traits in Persons with Substance Use Disorder in Kano, Nigeria

Abstract Background/Objectives: Studies have reported heightened level of aggression among persons with substance use disorders (SUDs). However, whether aggression is related with big five personality traits in persons with SUDs in Nigeria has not been previously studied. The objectives of the study were to: (i) compare the level of aggression between persons with SUDs and normal controls; (ii) compare personality traits between persons with SUDs and normal controls; and (iii) determine the correlation between aggression and personality traits. Materials and Methods: Seventy-five participants (35 = SUD, 40 = controls) receiving treatment at a rehabilitation center and normal controls participated in the study. Aggression was assessed using The Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire while personality traits were assessed using the revised NEO-PI personality inventory. Results: The mean age of the participants was 27 years (18–46 years). Persons with SUDs had significantly higher physical aggression (P = 0.001), verbal aggression (P = 0.013), hostility (P = 0.049), and total aggression scores (P = 0.001). Similarly, persons with SUDs had higher score in neuroticism (P = 0.001) but lower scores in conscientiousness (P < 0.001) and agreeable (P = 0.006). Among persons with SUDs, physical aggression was positively correlated with extraversion (P = 0.01), verbal aggression was negatively correlated with conscientiousness (P = 0.05), anger was negatively correlated with openness (P = 0.01) while hostility was positively correlated with neuroticism (P = 0.05) but negatively correlated with conscientiousness. Conclusion: SUDs are associated with heightened level of aggression, neuroticism, and lower conscientiousness and agreeableness. Evaluation of personality traits should form an integral part of risk stratification of persons at risk of SUDs.

Personality Traits, Ideology, and Attitudes Toward LGBT People: A Scoping Review

ABSTRACT This scoping review investigates the existing literature regarding personality traits, ideology, gender roles, and attitudes toward LGBT people. The review was conducted through PubMed and Web of Science databases. After establishing inclusion- and exclusion criteria, 12 studies published between 2013 and 2023 were reviewed, three themes (personality traits, gender roles and differences, and political ideology) were identified through thematic analysis. Several of the studies reported a relation between the personality traits Openness to Experience, Agreeableness and Conscientiousness, and homo- and transnegative attitudes. In particular, lower levels of Agreeableness, high levels of Conscientiousness, and lower levels of Extraversion were related to prejudice. The Dark Triad, especially the antagonistic traits Psychopathy and Machiavellianism, had a strong association with homo- and transnegativity. Multiple studies showed a connection between negative attitudes and ideological views. Especially right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) and social dominance orientation (SDO) were strong predictors of negative attitudes toward LGBT people. The majority of the studies also reported a significant gender difference in attitudes, with men being more prone to exhibit prejudice toward LGBT people than women. There are practical implications of this review relating to interventions which may target the prevention of homo and trans-negative attitudes, promoting inclusion and integration.

Are There Variations in Personality Traits Between Men and Women? The Evidence is from Indonesian Residents

Non-cognitive skills, such as personality traits, play a vital role in various facets of human life due to their association with individual decision-making. However, personality traits can vary significantly among individuals globally, particularly between males and females. Hence, the primary objective of this study is to analyze the disparities in personality traits between men and women and to investigate how non-cognitive skills influence well-being. The study utilizes nationally representative data from Indonesia, encompassing 17,560 men and 18,825 women. Employing distinct mean t-tests and linear regression estimations, we observe that men tend to exhibit higher levels of openness, conscientiousness, and agreeableness in their personalities compared to women. Conversely, women demonstrate a propensity for higher level of extraversion and neuroticism. Moreover, our analysis reveals that male well-being is positively correlated with extraversion, while female well-being is linked to openness and extraversion traits. These findings underscore the significance of considering personality attributes in crafting economic development policies. Presently, policymakers in emerging nations like Indonesia heavily prioritize cognitive skills such as technical training and technological innovation. This study suggests that incorporating residents' non-cognitive talents into policy-making could potentially lead to enhanced achievements and progress.

You have been blocked: Exploring the psychological, personality, and cognitive traits of blocking misinformation sources on social media

While extensive research has explored user engagement with misinformation, there remains a gap in understanding how individuals respond to those who share misinformation by blocking them. This study explores the factors influencing this blocking behavior, including social media news consumption, psychological traits, personality, and cognitive characteristics. Through three studies conducted in varying political contexts (the US and Singapore) and focusing on different types of misinformation (political, health, and political and entertainment deepfakes), we employ the dual motivation framework to analyze the interplay between social media news consumption and the decision to block sources of misinformation. Additionally, we investigate the role of the fear of missing out as a mediator in this relationship and how traits such as conscientiousness and cognitive ability moderate it. Our findings suggest that individuals who frequently consume social media news are more inclined to block sources of misinformation due to a heightened fear of missing out. Furthermore, those with lower levels of cognitive ability and conscientiousness exhibit a greater tendency to block misinformation sources. This research enhances our understanding of the mechanisms driving blocking behavior on social media in response to misinformation and underscores the importance of considering sociopolitical factors in understanding such behaviors.

Exploring associations between the Big Five personality traits and cognitive ability with COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy and uptake among mothers and offspring in a UK prospective cohort study

BackgroundVaccines reduce the severity of symptoms, and risk of hospitalisation and death from infectious diseases. Yet, vaccination hesitancy persists. Research identifying psychological risk factors for vaccination hesitancy is limited and reports conflicting results. This study sought to address these inconsistencies and explore the role of personality and cognitive ability in COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy and uptake in a prospective cohort study. MethodsData came from young adults (Generation-1; G1) and their mothers (Generation-0; G0) in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC). Multinomial logistic regressions, adjusting for several sociodemographic confounders, were used to explore whether personality and cognitive ability were associated with COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy and uptake. 4,960 G1 and 4,853 G0 mothers were included in the study population. FindingsAmong G1, 38.4% exhibited vaccination hesitancy, yet 91.9% of the cohort received the vaccine. In adjusted models, higher levels of openness, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and cognitive ability were associated with an increased probability of wanting the vaccine. Similarly, higher levels of agreeableness, openness and cognitive ability were associated with an increased probability of vaccination uptake. However, the evidence of associations with vaccine uptake were generally weaker than with vaccination hesitancy. 56.7% of the offspring who did not want the vaccine either received the vaccine or intended to, whilst 43.3% still had no intention.Among G0 mothers, 25.6% were vaccination hesitant, yet 99.0% of the cohort received the vaccine. 3.1% said they did not want the vaccine; approximately 80% of these either received the vaccine or intended to. We found inconclusive evidence for an association between cognitive ability and vaccination hesitancy among G0 mothers. InterpretationThis study identified psychological factors associated with vaccination hesitancy and uptake. If these associations are causal, these findings may help design more effective vaccination hesitancy interventions.

Multiple sclerosis and personality traits: associations with depression and anxiety

BackgroundDepression and anxiety are commonly observed in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). There is a growing body of literature supporting the hypothesis that personality traits can influence the mood disorders. This study aimed to investigate the personality traits and their relationships with depression and anxiety among pwMS.Methods234 pwMS were involved in this cross-sectional study. Personality traits, depression, and anxiety were assessed using the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), respectively. Pearson's correlation coefficient and generalized linear model were employed to evaluate the relationships between demographic and clinical characteristics, NEO-FFI, and HADS subscales.ResultsIn pwMS, longer disease duration was significantly associated with lower level of conscientiousness (β = − 0.23, p = 0.008) and agreeableness (β = − 0.2, p = 0.01). Moreover, higher expanded disability status scale (EDSS) of pwMS had a significant relationship with higher level of neuroticism (β = 0.89, p = 0.01). Increased level of neuroticism was significantly correlated with lower level of extraversion (r = − 0.28, p < 0.001), openness (r = − 0.37, p < 0.001), agreeableness (r = − 0.31, p < 0.001), and conscientiousness (r = − 0.45, p < 0.001). PwMS with higher level of conscientiousness showed more extraversion (r = 0.23, p < 0.001), openness (r = 0.61, p < 0.001), and agreeableness (r = 0.41, p < 0.001). Elevated level of neuroticism was significantly associated with higher level of anxiety (β = 0.47, p < 0.001) and depression (β = 0.11, p < 0.001) among pwMS.ConclusionThe co-occurrence of depression and anxiety is probably associated with neuroticism among pwMS. Additionally, the impact of personality traits extends to influencing key disease aspects such as physical disability and disease duration in MS.

Short-term personality development and early career success: Two longitudinal studies during the post-graduation transition.

Investigate short-term personality development during the post-graduation transition. Prior research indicates that long-term personality development matters for employment outcomes. However, this evidence is primarily limited to multi-year longitudinal studies. This research switches the focus to personality changes during a shorter, impactful life transition. We examined how short-term personality development during the 14-month post-graduation transition relates to early career outcomes among two diverse samples of graduates from universities (N = 816) and community colleges (N = 567). We used latent growth curve models to examine associations between career outcomes measured 14 months after graduation with initial personality levels and personality changes. Results revealed that mean-level changes in personality were small and mostly negative. Moreover, individual differences in personality changes were not associated with career outcomes. However, initial levels of conscientiousness, emotional stability, and extraversion positively related to both subjective and objective career success. Initial levels of agreeableness were also positively related to subjective (but not objective) success. Findings indicate that individual differences in personality trait levels at graduation are stronger predictors of early career success compared to short-term personality changes during the post-graduation transition. Taken together, these results help define the time sequence through which personality changes relate to career outcomes.

Architecting the future: exploring the synergy of AI-driven sustainable HRM, conscientiousness, and employee engagement

This study investigates the interrelations between AI-Driven Sustainable Human Resource Management (HRM), Employee Engagement, Employee Performance, and Conscientiousness Personality, through a survey of 470 employees in Chinese enterprises. Integrating Ability-Motivation-Opportunity (AMO) and Person-Organization (P-O) Fit theories, the research introduces a comprehensive model. Our findings suggest that Artificial Intelligence-Driven Sustainable HRM positively influences Employee Engagement, leading to enhanced performance. Moreover, Conscientiousness Personality serves as a critical moderating factor between AI-Driven Sustainable HRM and Employee Engagement. This study provides a theoretical perspective on the integration of AI-Driven Sustainable HRM and Employee Engagement in Chinese enterprises, uncovering a mediating and moderating mechanism. Through this mechanism, AI-Driven Sustainable HR practices contribute to employee engagement and performance, particularly for those with a high level of conscientiousness.

Personality and the use of cancer screenings - Results of the German National Cohort

ObjectiveTo determine the association between personality characteristics and use of different cancer screenings. MethodsWe used data from the German National Cohort (NAKO; mean age was 53.0 years (SD: 9.2 years)) – a population-based cohort study. A total of 132,298 individuals were included in the analyses. As outcome measures, we used (self-reported): stool examination for blood (haemoccult test, early detection of bowel cancer), colonoscopy (screening for colorectal cancer), skin examination for moles (early detection of skin cancer), breast palpation by a doctor (early detection of breast cancer), x-ray examination of the breast (“mammography”, early detection of breast cancer), cervical smear test, finger examination of the rectum (early detection of prostate cancer), and blood test for prostate cancer (determination of Prostate-Specific Antigen level). The established Big Five Inventory-SOEP was used to quantify personality factors. It was adjusted for several covariates based on the Andersen model. Unadjusted and adjusted multiple logistic regressions were computed. ResultsA higher probability of having a skin examination for moles, for example, was associated with a higher conscientiousness (OR: 1.07, p < 0.001), higher extraversion (OR: 1.03, p < 0.001), higher agreeableness (OR: 1.02, p < 0.001), lower openness to experience (OR: 0.98, p < 0.001) and higher neuroticism (OR: 1.07, p < 0.001) among the total sample. Depending on the outcome used, the associations slightly varied. ConclusionsParticularly higher levels of extraversion, neuroticism and conscientiousness are associated with the use of different cancer screenings. Such knowledge may help to better understand non-participation in cancer screening examinations from a psychological perspective.

Субъективное благополучие преподавателей в современных условиях: эмоционально-личностные и метакогнитивные предикторы

&lt;p&gt;This study aims to comprehensively explore the emotional, personal, and metacognitive predictors of the psychological well-being of teachers. The article presents the results of identifying personality traits, features of the emotional sphere and regulation of emotions, as well as features of metacognition that can influence well-being of teachers in modern conditions. To measure these characteristics, the following methods were used: a short portrait questionnaire of the Big Five; methodology &amp;ldquo;Differential Scale of Emotions&amp;rdquo;; methodology for diagnosing the subjective well-being of the individual; Metacognitive Awareness Inventory; test &amp;ldquo;Differential Type of Reflection&amp;rdquo;; Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire and the author's self-assessment questionnaire of metacognitive behavior &amp;ldquo;Metacognitive Skills in the Structure of Educational and Professional Activities&amp;rdquo;. Study sample: 106 people aged 20 to 75 years (average age 45,85) &amp;ndash; teachers, lecturers, heads of departments of higher educational institutions and colleges. It is shown that the higher levels of metacognitive involvement correspond to the higher levels of subjective well-being. A high index of positive emotions, higher levels of trait conscientiousness and conscious use of metacognitive skills, positive revision and acceptance strategies, and lower acute negative emotions index also have a positive effect. The results described can be helpful in preventative and therapeutic work with the symptoms of professional burnout of teachers.&lt;/p&gt;

Predicting cheating among married individuals based on sexual satisfaction and personality traits: A review

This article discusses the prediction of cheating among married individuals based on two significant factors: sexual satisfaction and personality traits. Sexual satisfaction is an essential component of a healthy and fulfilling relationship, and individuals who experience a lack of fulfillment in their sexual lives may seek satisfaction outside their marriage. Personality traits play a crucial role in determining an individual's propensity for cheating, with several traits commonly associated with a higher likelihood of engaging in infidelity, including low levels of conscientiousness, high levels of impulsivity, narcissism, and a desire for novelty and excitement. While sexual satisfaction and personality traits each contribute to the prediction of cheating, their interaction can further enhance our understanding. Developing reliable predictive models for cheating based on sexual satisfaction and personality traits is a complex task, with researchers using various methods to discern patterns and make accurate predictions. Data analysis techniques, such as logistic regression and machine learning algorithms, have been applied to collected data on married individuals and their tendencies to cheat, achieving moderate success in predictive accuracy. However, it is essential to acknowledge the limitations of these predictions, such as individual circumstances, relationship dynamics, and other external variables that are not accounted for in these models. Privacy concerns and ethical considerations surrounding the monitoring of individuals' personal lives must also be taken into account. These predictive models should be used with caution and in conjunction with comprehensive counseling and support systems to maintain the integrity of relationships.

The Dark Tetrad: analysis of profiles and relationship with the Big Five personality factors

The Dark Tetrad (DT) is composed of the traits of Narcissism, Machiavellianism, Psychopathy, and Sadism. Most studies analyzing the DT have employed a variable-centered approach, analyzing the traits separately. In the present study, we treat DT as a whole, adopting a person-centered approach. We analyzed different homogeneous subgroups of individuals characterized by specific DT profiles, aiming to examine their relationship with Big Five personality factors. A sample of 1149 participants (50.1% women, 18–79 years) completed The Short Dark Triad and the Assessment of Sadistic Personality instrument to assess DT, while the Mini-IPIP was used to assess the Big Five personality factors. Cluster analysis yielded five groups: Narcissism, Machiavellianism, Mean DT, Low DT, and High DT group. The main results showed that the High DT group was distinguished by higher levels of extraversion and lower levels of agreeableness and conscientiousness (compared with the Low DT group). Moreover, the Narcissism group was characterized by higher scores on emotional stability, openness to experience, and extraversion. Finally, distribution according to gender varied across DT groups (more men than women in the High DT group and the opposite in the Low DT group). Limitations and future lines of research are discussed.
