  • Positive Emotion Dispositions Differentially Associated with Big Five Personality and Attachment Style
    The Journal of Positive Psychology, April 2006; 1(2): 61–71 Positive emotion dispositions differentially associated with Big Five personality and attachment style MICHELLE N. SHIOTA, DACHER KELTNER, & OLIVER P. JOHN University of California at Berkeley, USA Abstract Although theorists have proposed the existence of multiple distinct varieties of positive emotion, dispositional positive affect is typically treated as a unidimensional variable in personality research. We present data elaborating conceptual and empirical differences among seven positive emotion dispositions in their relationships with two core personality constructs, the ‘‘Big Five’’ and adult attachment style. We found that the positive emotion dispositions were differentially associated with self- and peer-rated Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Agreeableness, Openness to Experience, and Neuroticism. We also found that different adult attachment styles were associated with different kinds of emotional rewards. Findings support the theoretical utility of differentiating among several dispositional positive emotion constructs in personality research.

Abstract: Trait-based theories of personality explain behavior across situations based on a set of broad personality attributes or dimensions. In contrast, recent social-cognitive theories of personality emphasize the importance of context and take a combined nomothetic/idiographic approach to personality. The social-cognitive perspective on personality resembles cognitive-behavioral therapies, which explain behavior in particular situations based on interactions of specific cognitions, mood states, and stimulus conditions. This article considers how contemporary personality theory and research might be integrated into the study of the outcomes and processes associated with cognitive-behavioral therapies. We propose that applying the social-cognitive perspective on personality to the study of how cognitive-behavioral therapies work provides both validation of current theories and promising directions for additional research. We review the research literatures on cognitive theories of psychopathology and cognitive-behavioral treatments to examine how the topic of personality has been addressed in those literatures to date.

  • Evaluating Models of the Personality–Psychopathology Relationship in Children and Adolescents ☆
    Clinical Psychology Review 26 (2006) 584–599 Evaluating models of the personality–psychopathology relationship in children and adolescents ☆ Jennifer L. Tackett University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, Department of Psychology, 75 E River Road, Minneapolis, MN, 55455 United States Received 19 May 2005; received in revised form 4 January 2006; accepted 27 April 2006 Abstract Connections between personality traits and psychopathology in children and adolescents have frequently been reported in research studies. However, despite the occurrence of significant and systematic relationships between personality and mental disorders in childhood, a thorough understanding of the cause, nature, and implications of these relationships is lacking. In this paper, a comprehensive taxonomy of childhood personality is used to link research on children with that on adults, as well as provide a framework for discussing the personality–psychopathology relationship. Next, research on children and adolescents is integrated into various proposed models of the personality–psychopathology relationship. Finally, clinical implications and future directions are proposed for research on personality and psychopathology in children. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. Hypotheses regarding connections between personality and psychopathology have a long-standing history, although ideas about the nature of these connections have changed over time (Maher & Maher, 1994). At the root of most of these hypotheses is the idea that psychopathology occurs in individuals within the context of premorbid personality, and understanding the connections between personality and psychopathology can lead to increased understanding of the individual's functioning. Over the last two decades, a growing body of research has attempted to explain the nature of these relationships (see Krueger & Tackett, 2003; Widiger, Verheul, & van den Brink, 1999 for reviews), building on current research investigating the etiology and structure of both personality and psychopathology.

    Psychology in Russia: State of the Art Russian Lomonosov Psychological Moscow State Volume 12, Issue 2, 2019 Society University The Genealogy of Personality Psychology — Why Personality Became So Important Sven Hroar Klempe* Department of Psychology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trond- heim, Norway *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Background. Personality psychology in academia reached its peak in Keywords: Western psychology in the 1960s and 1970s. Its history usually starts with personality Freud and ends up with the Big Five. Yet its roots go much deeper, and can psychology, be traced back to the early use of the term “psychology”, primarily among history of Protestant scholastics in the late sixteenth century. This was related to the personality Christian Reformation, which highlighted the sacrament of penance and psychology, emphasized self-examination of the true believer. The background for this history of study is to bring in a historical perspective on personality. Max Weber, for psychology, example, demonstrated that this led to a morality of faithfulness to one’s individual deeds. This duty, he says, explains the prosperity of the Protestants in Eu- psychology, rope and the US in the seventeenth century. Michel Foucault showed in the human nature first volume of The History of Sexuality how the sacrament of penance led to a certain interest in human nature and sexuality. Human nature was at the core of the very early use of psychology. Objective. The objective of this paper is to focus on how these aspects were treated in early psychology by following a design that examines the person, human nature, individual differences, and intellectual abilities.

The knowledge of the soul has always attracted the human mind and made him to try and think. So, throughout the history, the human's inattention and ignorance of himself has been considered as the greatest ignorance and the human self-knowledge has been considered as the best knowledge. For the human, no judgment is more important than his judgment of himself, and his evaluation of himself is the most definitive factor in the process of the mental development. The human's Imagine of himself is manifested in all his value reactions, and his evaluation of himself has prominent effects on his thoughts, feelings, desires, values, and goals. In fact, it is the key of his behavior. No one can be apathetic about his own judgment of himself, because his nature does not allow him to do so. The man will attain the status of a confident soul when he seeks the existence of himself with the guidance of the prophets, and on the contrary, when he is unaware of himself and follows the ego, he will certainly go astray.

Chow Rong Su University of Virginia Purdue University Patrick L. Hill Carleton University The current meta-analysis investigated the extent to which personality traits changed as a result of intervention, with the primary focus on clinical interventions. We identified 207 studies that had tracked changes in measures of personality traits during interventions, including true experiments and prepost change designs. Interventions were associated with marked changes in personality trait measures over an average time of 24 weeks (e.g., d ϭ .37). Additional analyses showed that the increases replicated across experimental and nonexperimental designs, for nonclinical interventions, and persisted in longitudinal follow-ups of samples beyond the course of intervention. Emotional stability was the primary trait domain showing changes as a result of therapy, followed by extraversion.

  • Temperament As a Unifying Basis for Personality and Psychopathology
    Journal of Abnormal Psychology Copyright 2005 by the American Psychological Association 2005, Vol. 114, No. 4, 505–521 0021-843X/05/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/0021-843X.114.4.505 Temperament as a Unifying Basis for Personality and Psychopathology Lee Anna Clark University of Iowa Personality and psychopathology long have been viewed as related domains, but the precise nature of their relations remains unclear. Through most of the 20th century, they were studied as separate fields; within psychopathology, clinical syndromes were separated from personality disorders in 1980. This division led to the revelation of substantial overlap among disorders both within and across axes and to the joint study of normal and abnormal personality. The author reviews these literatures and proposes an integrative framework to explain personality–psychopathology relations: Three broad, innate tempera- ment dimensions—negative affectivity, positive affectivity, and disinhibition—differentiate through both biologically and environmentally based developmental processes into a hierarchical personality trait structure and, at their extremes, are risk factors (diatheses) for psychopathology, especially given adverse life experiences (stress). Keywords: temperament, psychopathology, personality, taxonomy, DSM–V The first model of personality–psychopathology relations may only half the story. The other half is their division, both between have been the doctrine of the four humors, attributed to Hip- psychiatry (with its major focus on abnormal processes) and psy- pocrates and Galen (Maher & Maher, 1994). The balance of these chology (which generally emphasizes the study of normal func- four humors—blood (sanguis), phlegm, bile (choler), and black tioning) and also within each field. One sign of the split within bile (melancholer)—determined one’s temperament: sanguine, psychology was the separation in 1965 of the Journal of Abnormal phlegmatic, choleric, or melancholic, respectively.
