The study deals with the predictors of life satisfaction among people in the early aging. The goal of the presented study was to determine how selected personality characteristics and coping strategies predict life satisfaction of the elders. The research sample consisted of 130 seniors, including 55 men and 75 women. To determine the degree of life satisfaction we used the Life Satisfaction Scale SWLS, extraversion and neuroticism, we investigated by personal inventory NEO-FFI and the Coping Strategies Questionnaire SVF 78 was used on the assessment of coping strategies. Regression analysis confirmed that neuroticism was significant predictor of life satisfaction of the elders which explained 9 % of variance of life satisfaction of the elders and strategies of the diversion (strategy diversion and spare satisfaction

The presented study aimed at investigating the relationship between the extraversion level and speaking anxiety in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context on the one hand, and testifying the relationship between the extraversion degree and speech fluency and speech accuracy, on the other hand. To this end, 60 advanced university students, including 12 males and 48 females, participated in the study at the quantitative phase, and 28 of them, including 14 from the extraversion levels, and 14 from the introversion levels, were observed on their oral performance at the qualitative phase. Based on Spearman’s Rank Order Correlation using SPSS in the quantitative section, the findings revealed a strong negative correlation between the extraversion level and public speaking anxiety, on the one hand, and a strong positive correlation between the extraversion degree and speech fluency in the qualitative phase, on the other hand. Speech accuracy revealed having no significant correlation with the extraversion degree. Indeed, extraversion and introversion seem to be the major personality differences that have attracted the attention of psycholinguists, in particular Dornyei (2005); henceforth, it would be worth clarifying the underlying characteristics of this construct to gain a more comprehensive view of these personality type indicators, respectively.

The study verified self-esteem, extraversion, neuroticism and health as predictors of subjectively-assessed quality of life. The sample included 109 adolescents (69 healthy adolescents and 40 adolescents with upper respiratory tract disease). The research tools used were WHOQOL-BREF (WHO, 1998), Rosenberg´s self-esteem scale (Rosenberg, 1965) and NEO-FFI personality questionnaire (Hřebíčková et al., 2002). The results were processed using the multiple linear regression analysis stepwise method. Health was not found to be a predictor of subjectively-assessed quality of life in the research sample. Self-esteem was found to be a predictor of psychological (48% of variance) and environmental (25% of variance) quality of life. Neuroticism was confirmed as a predictor only for physical quality of life (8% of variance). Extraversion was established as a universal predictor for all the aspects of quality of life measured: physical (20% of variance), psychological (8% of variance) and environmental (10% of variance).

Objectives: The purpose of this study is the evaluation of how the decline of cognitive abilities caused by aging is moderated by biologically determined personality dimensions: Neuroticism (N) and Extraversion (E). Materials and Methods: The research was conducted with the participation of 160 men in good physical health, professional drivers, aged 20–70 (Mean = 40, SD = 11). Personality traits were measured using Eysenck’s Personality Questionnaire - Revised (EPQ-R), while Ravens Progressive Matrices, Go/noGo Task and Peripheral Perception Test were used to evaluate cognitive processes. The score of Ravens Progressive Matrices was treated as a control variable. Results: The results of the study, based on a Hierarchical Multiple Regression Analysis, indicate that besides the intelligence level, age is the best predictor of cognitive functioning level and that this infl uence is additionally moderated by the N trait level as well as, less frequently, by the interaction of age and E. Conclusion: This means that high N trait level increases the infl uence of age on cognitive functions decline. When the N trait level was low, the age differences in measures of cognitive performance were not signifi cant. Thus, the level of N trait may play an important role in the process of cognitive aging. The results are discussed in the context of a driving safety research.

Interpersonal communication is a dynamic, complex process, and is conditioned by many factors, among which one of the most important roles is played by the personality of interaction partners. The article presents results of research on the influence of extraversion and emotional intelligence on selected aspects of communication when the process is mediated by the Internet. The study involved young adults (N = 51) aged 21–27 (M = 24.27; SD = 1.65; Md = 24), mostly women (Nk = 26; K/M = 1.08), who responded to the invitation to the study published on Facebook. The survey was conducted in the period from December 2019 to February 2020, through Messenger and GoogleForms to collect the results in personality questionnaires. On the basis of the correlation coefficients obtained, it can be assumed that the level of extraversion (r = .397, p = .002; r = 414, p < .001 and the level of emotional intelligence (r = .331, p = .009; r = .411, p < .001) may be responsible for the expression of emotions and productivity of the speech in an intermediary conversation. Due to the results of the conducted research, we put forward a thesis that the mediation of contact with another person thanks to the currently developed systems of smileys, does not lead to impoverishment of the emotional layer of the message.

The aim of our study was to examine adolescent personality in relation to the adolescent school-related self-concept, in particular to its cognitive aspect according to W.U. Meyer’s conception. In addition to selected personality dimensions, our paper focuses also on gender relations of the adolescent school-related self-concept. The research sample was made up of grammar school and university students (N = 100). The five-factor model of personality NEO-FFI (P.T. Costa, R.R. McCrae) and SCEA-M questionnaire (U. Engler, W.U. Meyer) were used as research tools. The results show a statistically significant relationship between neuroticism and fear of social consequences. There is also a statistically significant relationship between conscientiousness and the self-concept of ability. Statistically significant gender differences in favour of women appear in the dimension of fear of social consequences.

The report deals with the construct of life satisfaction in connection with personality factors in a group of Slovak teachers. The aim is to analyze the life satisfaction of teachers and its correlation with selected personality features. The research sample consisted of 197 teachers. To acquire data we used the life satisfaction questionnaire, the NEO-FFI (five-factor personality inventory), and the RSES (Rosenberger scale of self-esteem). The research revealed a significant correlation between life satisfaction and NEO-FFI personality variables with the exception of openness to experience. It was shown that important predictors of life satisfaction are neuroticism, extraversion and self-esteem.

Współcześnie coraz więcej badań wskazuje na rozróżnienie między narcyzmem wielkościowym a wrażliwym. Ten pierwszy łączony jest zazwyczaj z bardziej pozytywnym profilem osobowościowym i pozytywnym afektem, podczas gdy narcyzm wrażliwy koreluje z większym nieprzystosowaniem psychologicznym. Niniejsze badanie miało na celu sprawdzenie związków obu typów narcyzmu z jednym z aspektów dobrostanu psychicznego, tj. z satysfakcją z życia. Dodatkowo postanowiono uwzględnić rolę cech osobowości w tej relacji, ponieważ niedawne badania pokazują, że są one silnie związane zarówno z dwoma typami narcyzmu, jak i z dobrostanem. W badaniu wzięły udział 233 osoby, w wieku od 18 do 39 lat. Do pomiaru narcyzmu wrażliwego użyto polskiej wersji skali Hypersensitive Narcissism Scale, do sprawdzenia nasilenia cechy narcyzmu wielkościowego kwestionariusza Narcissistic Personality Inventory. W celu pomiaru poczucia zadowolenia z życia zastosowano Skalę satysfakcji z życia, do oceny zaś nasilenia poszczególnych cech osobowości wykorzystano kwestionariusz International Personality Items Pool Big Five Factor Markers – 50. Wyniki badania wykazały, że jedynie narcyzm wrażliwy istotnie korelował (ujemnie) z satysfakcją z życia, natomiast narcyzm wielkościowy nie wykazał związku z dobrostanem. Dodatkowo dwie cechy osobowości w pełni mediowały relację narcyzmu wrażliwego z satysfakcją: neurotyczność oraz ekstrawersja. Otrzymane rezultaty pokazują, że podstawowe wymiary osobowości – neurotyczność i ekstrawersja – stanowią ważne podłoże zarówno dla deklarowanej satysfakcji z życia, jak i narcyzmu wrażliwego. Ten ostatni wynik jest spójny z ostatnimi doniesieniami, wskazującym na silne związki narcyzmu wrażliwego z neurotycznością.

Recent studies show that there might be two types of narcissism: grandiose and vulnerable narcissism. The former correlates with more adaptive psychological profile and high well-being, whereas the latter is associated with maladaptive functioning including negative emotionality. In the current study we examined the relationships between two types of narcissism and satisfaction with life. Additionally, we controlled for Big Five personality traits, because they were shown to be relevant for both narcissism and well -being. Total of 233 subjects took part in the study with a range of age 18–39. Vulnerable narcissism was measured with the Polish version of the Hypersensitive Narcissism Scale and grandiose narcissism was assessed with Narcissistic Personality Inventory. Big Five was assessed with the Polish adaptation of International Personality Items Pool Big Five Factor Markers – 50. Satisfaction with life was measured with Satisfaction with Life Scale. We found that only one type of narcissism was significantly correlated with satisfaction with life. Specifically, vulnerable narcissism was negatively associated with life satisfaction, whereas grandiose type did not correlate significantly with it. The mediation analysis revealed that neuroticism and extraversion fully mediated the relationship between vulnerable narcissism and life satisfaction. The obtained results suggest that personality traits explain the level of happiness declared by vulnerable narcissists. This finding is consistent with recent data showing that vulnerable narcissism is highly correlated with personality traits, especially neuroticism.

The idea of the hierarchy of the sciences has a strong tradition especially in the sociology of science. It is shown that organisations of sciences according to various criteria are very similar: “hard”, exact and theoretical disciplines are always placed at one end of the continuum, and “soft”, social or applied sciences at the other end. The aim of this study is to find connections between a position of a science at the hierarchy and personality traits of its representatives. The research sample consists of 132 experts from Palacký University in Olomouc who have been administrated three personality inventories (NEO-FFI, PSSI, SSI). The results suggest that representatives of the “soft sciences” incline to extraversion, openness to experience, and emotional expressivity more than representatives of the exact disciplines. “Soft sciences” experts also score relatively high on the PSSI-scale ambitious/narcissistic and endearing/histrionic style, and low on the PSSI-scale reserved/schizoid style. Research findings are interpreted in the context of Baron-Cohen E-S theory and the psychology of science.

Idea hierarchického řazení vědních oborů má silnou tradici především v sociologii vědy. Ukazuje se, že uspořádání věd podle různých kritérií jsou si velmi podobná: na jednom konci kontinua jsou vždy umístěny „tvrdé“, exaktní a teoretické obory a na druhém konci „měkké“, společenské nebo aplikované vědy. Cílem našeho výzkumu bylo najít souvislosti mezi pozicí vědy v této hierarchii a osobnostními rysy jejích představitelů. Výzkumný soubor tvořilo 132 odborníků z Palackého univerzity v Olomouci, kterým byly administrovány tři osobnostní inventáře (NEO-FFI, SSI, PSSI). Výsledky nasvědčují tomu, že představitelé „měkkých věd“ inklinují k extraverzi, otevřenosti vůči zkušenosti a k emocionální expresivitě víc než zástupci exaktních oborů. Odborníci na „měkké vědy“ měli také relativně vysoké skóry na škálách ctižádostivý/narcistický a příjemný/histrionský PSSI a nízké na škále rezervovaný/schizoidní. Výsledky výzkumu interpretujeme v kontextu E-S teorie Barona-Cohena a poznatků psychologie vědy.

Background: This study aims to examine the predictive effect of perceived organizational politics on employees’ job satisfaction, and the role of personality (extraversion, openness, agreeableness and conscientiousness) in moderating the relationship. Methods: Data were collected using self-report questionnaires from 210 employees working in private organizations in Malaysia. The hypothesized relationships were tested using hierarchical regression analyses. Results: Consistent with the prediction, results of the study indicated that perceived organizational politics was negatively related to job satisfaction (R2 = 0.09). From the four personality traits, only extraversion and openness were found to moderate the relationship between perceived organizational politics and job satisfaction. Conclusion: The findings of this research extent the current knowledge on the importance of personality traits in relation to perceived organizational politics and job satisfaction among employees.

Wstęp: Praca ma na celu przeanalizowanie przewidywanego wpływu postrzeganej polityki organizacyjnej na zadowolenie z pracy pracowników oraz rolę osobowości (ekstrawersja, otwartość, ugodowość oraz sumienność) w kształtowaniu powiązań i wzajemnych stosunków. Metody: Dane zostały zebrane poprzez przeprowadzenie wywiadu ankietowego wśród 210 pracowników prywatnych przedsiębiorstw w Malezji. Hipotezy zdefiniowane na tej podstawie zostały poddane ocenie przy użyciu analizy regresji hierarchicznej. Wyniki: Zgodnie z przewidywaniami, wyniki badania wskazują, że postrzegana polityka organizacji jest odwrotnie skorelowana z zadowoleniem z pracy (R2 = 0.09). Spośród czterech ocenianych cech osobowości, tylko ekstrawersja i otwartość, miały wpływ na zależności pomiędzy postrzeganą polityką organizacji a zadowoleniem z pracy. Wnioski: Otrzymane rezultaty badań poszerzają dostępną wiedzę dotyczącą istotności cech charakteru w relacji z postrzeganą polityką organizacji a zadowoleniem z pracy wśród pracowników.

Background: Personality determinants are an important predicator of road behaviors in drivers. The main objective of the study was to determine the relationship between personality determinants (neuroticism, extraversion, level of anxiety – features) and distinguishable risky behaviors of drivers of medical transport vehicles. Material and Methods: The study covered 106 male drivers from the Wielkopolskie Voivodeship, working in health care, having a license to drive emergency vehicles. To achieve the research objectives a questionnaire was developed and applied. It concerned risky road behaviors among drivers of medical transport. The personality suitability was determined using the questionnaire methods on self-assessment: Polish versions of Eysenck Personality Questionnaire – Revised (EPQ-R) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaire. Results: It was shown that drivers with introverted characteristics declare driving vehicles of reduced technical efficiency more often than extroverts. The level of the anxiety as a trait A-characteristic affects the display of distracting behaviors, making decisions about driving a vehicle that is inefficient, driving in a bad psychophysical condition, as well as maintaining too small distance from the preceding vehicle. The higher the intensity of anxiety characteristics, the higher the intensity of given behaviors. Conclusions: Based on the study results, it can be assumed that there is a relationship between determinants of personality and the display of risky behaviors of drivers of medical transport vehicles. Thus it can be concluded that the level of extraversion and anxiety as a trait are the differentiating characteristics of respondents. Med Pr 2014;65(4):485–496

Wstęp: Istotnym predyktorem zachowań drogowych kierowców są determinanty temperamentalno-osobowościowe. Głównym celem pracy było określenie zależności między determinantami temperamentalno-osobowościowymi (neurotyzm, ekstrawersja, poziom lęku jako cechy) a drogowymi zachowaniami ryzykownymi przejawianymi przez kierowców transportu medycznego. Materiał i metody: Badaniu poddano 106 mężczyzn z terenu województwa wielkopolskiego – kierowców pracujących w opiece zdrowotnej, mających uprawnienia do prowadzenia pojazdów uprzywilejowanych. Do realizacji celów badawczych pracy zastosowano ankietę własnego autorstwa dotyczącą drogowych zachowań ryzykownych wśród kierowców transportu medycznego. W celu określenia predyspozycji temperamentalno-osobowościowych zastosowano metody kwestionariuszowe oparte na samoocenie: Kwestionariusz Osobowości Eysencka (Eysenck Personality Questionnaire – Revised – EPQ-R) oraz polską wersję Inwentarza Stanu i Cechy Lęku (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory – STAI). Wyniki: Wykazano, że kierowcy o cechach introwertywnych częściej niż osoby ekstrawertywne deklarują prowadzenie pojazdów o obniżonej sprawności technicznej. Poziom lęku jako cechy może wpływać na przejawianie zachowań rozpraszających, podejmowanie decyzji o jeździe niesprawnym pojazdem, a także na prowadzenie pojazdu w złym stanie psychofizycznym oraz utrzymywanie zbyt małej odległości od pojazdu poprzedzającego. Im wyższe natężenie cechy lęku, tym wyższe natężenie ww. danych zachowań. Wnioski: Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań można przyjąć, że istnieje zależność między determinantami temperamentalno-osobowościowymi a deklarowanymi przez kierowców transportu medycznego zachowaniami ryzykownymi na drodze. W myśl uzyskanych wyników cechami różnicującymi badane osoby są wymiary ekstrawersji i lęk jako cecha. Med. Pr. 2014;65(4):485–496
