Personality Psychology and Economics Mathilde Almlund, Angela Lee Duckworth, James J. Heckman, and Tim D. Kautz NBER Working Paper No. 16822 February 2011 JEL No. I2,J24 ABSTRACT This paper explores the power of personality traits both as predictors and as causes of academic and economic success, health, and criminal activity. Measured personality is interpreted as a construct derived from an economic model of preferences, constraints, and information. Evidence is reviewed about the “situational specificity” of personality traits and preferences. An extreme version of the situationist view claims that there are no stable personality traits or preference parameters that persons carry across different situations. Those who hold this view claim that personality psychology has little relevance for economics. The biological and evolutionary origins of personality traits are explored. Personality measurement systems and relationships among the measures used by psychologists are examined. The predictive power of personality measures is compared with the predictive power of measures of cognition captured by IQ and achievement tests. For many outcomes, personality measures are just as predictive as cognitive measures, even after controlling for family background and cognition. Moreover, standard measures of cognition are heavily influenced by personality traits and incentives. Measured personality traits are positively correlated over the life cycle. However, they are not fixed and can be altered by experience and investment. Intervention studies, along with studies in biology and neuroscience, establish a causal basis for the observed effect of personality traits on economic and social outcomes. Personality traits are more malleable over the life cycle compared to cognition, which becomes highly rank stable around age 10. Interventions that change personality are promising avenues for addressing poverty and disadvantage. Mathilde Almlund James J.

  • Borderline Personality Disorder
    Borderline Personality Disorder What is Borderline Personality Disorder? Borderline personality disorder is an illness marked by an ongoing pattern of varying moods, self-image, and behavior. These symptoms often result in impulsive actions and problems in relationships with other people. A person with borderline personality disorder may experience episodes of anger, depression, and anxiety that may last from a few hours to days. Recognizable symptoms typically show up during adolescence (teenage years) or early adulthood, but early symptoms of the illness can occur during childhood. National Institute of Mental Health What are the signs People with borderline personality disorder may and symptoms? experience mood swings and may display uncertainty about how they see themselves and their role in the world. As a result, their interests and values can change quickly. People with borderline personality disorder also tend to view things in extremes, such as all good or all bad. Their opinions of other people can also change quickly. An individual who is seen as a friend one day may be considered an enemy or traitor the next. These shifting feelings can lead to intense and unstable relationships. Other signs or symptoms may include: ♦ Efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment, such as rapidly initiating intimate (physical or emotional) relationships or cutting off communication with someone in anticipation of being abandoned ♦ A pattern of intense and unstable relationships with family, friends, and loved ones, often swinging from extreme closeness and love (idealization) to extreme dislike or anger (devaluation) ♦ Distorted and unstable self-image or sense of self ♦ Impulsive and often dangerous behaviors, such as spending sprees, unsafe sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, and binge eating.

  • Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) Summary
    Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) Summary • The MBTI is a reliable and valid instrument that measures and categorizes your personality and behavior. It is not a test. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers. • Around 1940 a mother-daughter team (Katharine C. Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers) developed this instrument to help people understand and use Carl Jung’s theory of psychological type preferences. • Swiss Psychologist, Carl Jung, (1875 – 1961) theorized that you can predict differences in people’s behavior if you know how they prefer to use their mind. According to Jung, we each have an inborn preference for using our mind in one of two different ways, in four different categories: Orientation to World Take in Information Make Decisions Take in Info. or Decide Extraverted Sensing Thinking Perceiving Energized by others Using five senses Logical, problem solvers Taking in information or or or or Introverted Intuition Feeling Judging Energized by ideas, Using gut or instincts Consider others, Organizing information emotions, memories compassionate and making decisions • There are a total of 16 possible “types” based on unique combinations of the preferences. • Four letters are used to represent a type, for example a person with preferences for Extraverted, Sensing, Thinking, Judging is called an ESTJ. • Each type has strengths and weaknesses. No type is better than another. • People can use this assessment tool to validate their preferences on each of the four dichotomies and understand the sixteen different personality

  • Eight PERSONALITY DISORDERS, NEUROTICISM, and LONELINESS
    Eight PERSONALITY DISORDERS, NEUROTICISM, AND LONELINESS 1. Neuroticism and Personality Disorders The lonely are frequently perceived by others and often even by themselves as being mentally sub-par and specifically neurotic in the sense of their manifest- ing ongoing emotional insecurity, fragility, and instability. When extreme, these traits require therapeutic intervention. Unfortunately, neurotics are often not the best at helping themselves find a remedy for the anxiety and other traits that ail them. Moreover, discovering and realizing such an antidote to their afflic- tion are by no means the same thing. The research of Daniel Peplau and Letitia Perlman has found that, first, the lonely “score higher” than the nonlonely in terms of neuroticism; second, that “loneliness is associated with poor mental health” in general; and, third, “structured psychiatric examinations” reveal the lonely as having more “men- tal symptoms needing treatment” than the nonlonely (1984, p. 20). Thomas A. Widiger and Timothy Trull state that those who rank above average in FFM Neuroticism: lack the emotional strength to simply ignore the hassles of everyday life and the emotional resilience to overcome the more severe traumas which are inevitable at some point within most persons’ lives. Which particular mental disorder they develop may be due in part to other contributing va- riables (for example, gender, social-cultural context, childhood experiences, genetic vulnerabilities, and additional personality traits) which either direct the person toward a preferred method of coping (for example, bulimic, dis- sociative, or substance use behavior) or reflect an additional vulnerability (for example, a sexual dysfunction). (1992, p. 355) These risk factors negatively impact lonelies’ ability to relate to others and leave them disgruntled with the quantity but especially the quality of their relationships.

  • 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.
