Abstract:
Neuroticism is a predictor of many health problems. To study the determinants of within–subject change in neuroticism, three hypotheses were tested: (i) subjects who experienced stressful life events (SLEs) show an increase in neuroticism; (ii) high baseline neuroticism moderated this effect; and (iii) recent SLEs had a greater impact on neuroticism than distant SLEs. Data came from the Finnish Twin Cohort. Neuroticism data were collected in 1975 and 1981 and SLEs data in 1981 (n = 21 085). By entering baseline neuroticism as a predictor for neuroticism at follow–up, the outcome measure was change in neuroticism. Changes in neuroticism were predicted from SLE indices or their interaction with baseline neuroticism. Timing of SLEs was taken into account by distinguishing recent from distant SLEs. To control for confounding by shared genes and environments, both within–twin pair and between–twin pair effects were tested for monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs separately. Neuroticism's six–year stability was high (r = .58, p < .001). Exposure to SLEs modestly increased neuroticism (βs > .55, ps < .001), unconfounded by shared genes. This effect was not moderated by high baseline neuroticism. Recent SLEs (.09 < βs < .15) had more impact than distant SLEs (.03 < βs < .11; ps < .01). In conclusion, the findings strongly supported a model of environmentally driven SLEs causing dynamic fluctuations around a person's set point of neuroticism. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:
The previous research studies claimed that there is a relationship between personality predispositions and affective disorders like depression. Personality traits like neuroticism and introversion are considered as a vulnerable factors for the development of depression. Therefore, the aim of this research study was to investigate that whether personality traits like introversion and neuroticisms are linked to depression. The researcher recruited a sample size of 200 university students who were studying in Islamia University Bahawalpur, Bahauddin Zakariya University Multan, and Women University Bahawalpur. Beck depression inventory (BDI), Introversion scale and Neuroticism dimension included in an inventory which was used to measure depression, introversion and neuroticism respectively. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation, regression analysis and an independent sample t-tests. The results revealed that there was a positive significant relationship between neuroticism, introversion personality traits and depression. The introversion and neuroticism personality traits significantly predicted depression.

Abstract:
Neuroticism is one of the major traits describing human personality, and a predictor of mental and physical disorders with profound public health significance. Individual differences in emotional variability are thought to reflect the core of neuroticism. However, the empirical relation between emotional variability and neuroticism may be partially the result of a measurement artifact reflecting neuroticism’s relation with higher mean levels—rather than greater variability—of negative emotion. When emotional intensity is measured using bounded scales, there is a dependency between variability and mean levels: at low (or high) intensity, it is impossible to demonstrate high variability. As neuroticism is positively associated with mean levels of negative emotion, this may account for the relation between neuroticism and emotional variability. In a metaanalysis of 11 studies (N = 1,205 participants; 83,411 observations), we tested whether the association between neuroticism and negative emotional variability was clouded by a dependency between variability and the mean. We found a medium-sized positive association between neuroticism and negative emotional variability, but, when using a relative variability index to correct for mean negative emotion, this association disappeared. This indicated that neuroticism was associated with experiencing more intense, but not more variable, negative emotions. Our findings call into question theory, measurement scales, and data suggesting that emotional variability is central to neuroticism. In doing so, they provide a revisionary perspective for understanding how this individual difference may predispose to mental and physical disorders.

Abstract:
We examined the association between neuroticism and mortality in a sample of 321,456 people from UK Biobank and explored the influence of self-rated health on this relationship. After adjustment for age and sex, a 1- SD increment in neuroticism was associated with a 6% increase in all-cause mortality (hazard ratio = 1.06, 95% confidence interval = [1.03, 1.09]). After adjustment for other covariates, and, in particular, self-rated health, higher neuroticism was associated with an 8% reduction in all-cause mortality (hazard ratio = 0.92, 95% confidence interval = [0.89, 0.95]), as well as with reductions in mortality from cancer, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory disease, but not external causes. Further analyses revealed that higher neuroticism was associated with lower mortality only in those people with fair or poor self-rated health, and that higher scores on a facet of neuroticism related to worry and vulnerability were associated with lower mortality. Research into associations between personality facets and mortality may elucidate mechanisms underlying neuroticism’s covert protection against death.

Abstract:
The study examined the relationship of extraversion, neuroticism, and impulsiveness with posttraumatic stress reactions of avoidance and intrusion. 36 outpatients from a Trauma Unit at a major metropolitan hospital in Melbourne (Victoria), and 24 age-matched controls completed the Impact of Event Scale, the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Revised, and the Impulsivity Questionnaire. Intrusion symptoms were predicted both by Extraversion and Neuroticism, after controlling for age and gender, with Neuroticism making a stronger contribution to the prediction. The only predictor of Avoidance symptoms was Neuroticism. Impulsivity correlated with Intrusion symptoms but predicted them only in the trauma group. This finding, along with the observed positive associations of Extroversion with both posttraumatic symptoms, lends support to Gray's model of dispositions influencing responses to trauma, suggesting that impulsive (extroverted) neurotics are more vulnerable to posttraumatic stress than introverted ones.

Abstract:
Subjective Estimation of the Quality of Life in Relation to NeuroticismIt is generally agreed that personality variables have a relatively consistent influence on the subjective estimation of different situations in everyday life and the way people react to them. The aim of this review was to summarise our previously published findings on the relationship between subjective estimation of one's quality of life and the personality trait neuroticism-emotional stability. We used theWHO Quality of Life - BREFor SF-36 questionnaires for the assessment of the quality of life, Cornell Index for the assessment of neuroticism, and The Social Readjustment Rating Scale for the evaluation of common stressors. Our results have shown that more emotionally stable participants (lower neuroticism) perceive their life better in quality and are more satisfied with their work environment. In addition, our results support the findings from other studies that women have higher neuroticism and lower quality of life scores than men.

Abstract:
BackgroundThis meta-analysis seeks to quantify the prospective association between neuroticism and the common mental disorders (CMDs, including anxiety, depression, and substance abuse) as well as thought disorders (psychosis/schizophrenia) and non-specific mental distress. Data on the degree of confounding of the prospective association of neuroticism by baseline symptoms and psychiatric history, and the rate of decay of neuroticism's effect over time, can inform theories about the structure of psychopathology and role of neuroticism, in particular the vulnerability theory.MethodThis meta-analysis included 59 longitudinal/prospective studies with 443 313 participants.ResultsThe results showed large unadjusted prospective associations between neuroticism and symptoms/diagnosis of anxiety, depression, and non-specific mental distress (d = 0.50–0.70). Adjustment for baseline symptoms and psychiatric history reduced the associations by half (d = 0.10–0.40). Unadjusted prospective associations for substance abuse and thought disorders/symptoms were considerably weaker (d = 0.03–0.20), but were not attenuated by adjustment for baseline problems. Unadjusted prospective associations were four times larger over short (<4 year) than long (⩾4 years) follow-up intervals, suggesting a substantial decay of the association with increasing time intervals. Adjusted effects, however, were only slightly larger over short v. long time intervals. This indicates that confounding by baseline symptoms and psychiatric history masks the long-term stability of the neuroticism vulnerability effect.ConclusionHigh neuroticism indexes a risk constellation that exists prior to the development and onset of any CMD. The adjusted prospective neuroticism effect remains robust and hardly decays with time. Our results underscore the need to focus on the mechanisms underlying this prospective association.

Abstract:
This study investigates the feasibility of hand analysis for diagnosing neuroticism dimensions. Neuroticism, a personality trait characterized by emotional instability, anxiety, and susceptibility to stress, can have significant impacts on individuals' mental health and well-being. The study examines the relationship between certain hand features and neuroticism dimensions, aiming to develop a diagnostic tool for identifying neurotic tendencies based on hand analysis. Key hand features such as finger length ratios, palm size, and ridge patterns are analyzed in relation to neuroticism dimensions. Through empirical research and data analysis, the study assesses the accuracy and reliability of hand analysis as a diagnostic method for neuroticism dimensions. The findings offer insights into the potential use of hand analysis in psychological assessment and highlight its implications for understanding neuroticism traits.

Abstract:
The scope of study that has been done on the significant personality impact of neuroticism on authentic leadership has been relatively minimal. Using a correlational method, this study aims to investigate the relationship between neuroticism's primary personality trait and authentic leadership's components (self-awareness, internalized moral perspective, balanced processing, and relational transparency). The authentic leadership questionnaire (ALQ) is used to examine leaders' personalities and authentic leadership styles. The results of this research showed that there is a negative correlation between neuroticism and all authentic leadership dimensions. This was the key takeaway from the study.

Abstract:
The study aimed to understand the predictive impact of the five factors of teachers' personalities (neuroticism, extroversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and responsibility) on conflict management in the classroom. The variables of gender, service time and academic training of teachers were also studied when they were related to personality dimensions. The NEO-Five Factors Inventory, the Rahim-II Organizational Conflict Inventory -Portuguese Version in the School Context, and a personal and professional data sheet were used as instruments, in a sample of 659 basic education teachers in Portuguese schools. Using a structural equation model, the results showed an association between all the variables under study. Neuroticism and responsibility are the best predictors of conflict management. The female gender is the one that presents the best results in all dimensions of personality. Teachers with more academic training showed less neuroticism, but were more extroverted, open to experience, agreeable, and responsible, and those with more seniority showed less neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, and agreeable. These results will constitute a mobilizing engine of more substantive pedagogical practices for the advancement of education. El estudio tuvo como objetivo comprender el impacto predictivo de los cinco factores de la personalidad de los docentes (neuroticismo, extroversión, apertura a la experiencia, amabilidad y responsabilidad), en el manejo de conflictos en el aula. También se estudiaron las variables género, tiempo de servicio y formación académica de los docentes cuando se relacionaron con dimensiones de personalidad. Se utilizaron como instrumentos el NEO-Inventario de Cinco Factores, el Inventario de Conflicto Organizacional de Rahim-II - Versión Portuguesa en el Contexto Escolar y una ficha de datos personales y profesionales, en una muestra de 659 profesores de educación básica en escuelas portuguesas. Utilizando un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales, los resultados mostraron una asociación entre todas las variables en estudio. El neuroticismo y la responsabilidad son los mejores predictores de la gestión de conflictos. El género femenino es el que presenta mejores resultados en todas las dimensiones de la personalidad. Los docentes con mayor formación académica mostraron menos neuroticismo, pero eran más extrovertidos, abiertos a la experiencia, agradables y responsables, y los de mayor antigüedad mostraron menos neuroticismo, extraversión, apertura a la experiencia y amabilidad. Estos resultados constituirán un motor movilizador de prácticas pedagógicas más sustantivas para el avance de la educación.

Abstract:
Self-control has been defined as the ability to override or alter an automatic response. Past research has suggested that those who are higher in the personality trait neuroticism display poorer self-control. Based on theory suggesting that self-control is a limited resource, the present study attempts to explain the relationship between neuroticism and self-control. Understanding that neuroticism is characterized by emotional instability, it follows that individuals high in neuroticism must exert more self-control in managing their negative moods, thus leaving them depleted for future acts of self-control. Participants (n = 84) completed measures of trait self-control, engaged in an emotional regulation task, and then completed measures of state self-control, affect, and rumination. Results revealed no significant effect of emotional regulation on state self-control, nor a significant effect of neuroticism on state self-control. The implications of these findings are discussed.

Abstract:
Events in the life history of an individual such as childhood stressful events alter the strategies that guide behavior, specifically sexual strategies. Evolutionary Developmental Psychology suggests that development must be studied through the integration of various aspects, such as Attachment, Sexual strategies, and Personality. Important and stable part of psychology, personalitys factor Neuroticism reflects how people react to stress. Considering this, in the present thesis we analyzed the relationship between childhood stressful life events, neuroticism and adult attachment. We interviewed 173 people, 99 women and 74 men, aged from 18 to 45 years old (M= 29.51; SD= 7.3), that had a family income range from 1 to 3 Brazilian MW. We applied a Stressful Events Inventory, a Neuroticism Test, and an Attachment Scale. It was found an average of 16,59 of occurrence of stressful events (SD = 5.82). In addition to this high frequency, it was found that the greater the number of stressful events, the greater the perceived stress; and participants perceived the events as more stressful than expected. There were sex differences, with men experiencing more events related to violence and authority, and women, more events that are social. Women also tended to perceive all events as more stressful and to have higher Neuroticism. 42% of the sample had a secure attachment style, less than expected. Lastly, occurrence of stressful events, neuroticism, age, and income explained 46% of variance of this sample attachment style. A structural model analysis showed that neuroticism mediates the relationship between occurrence of stressful events and attachment, without the role of perception. This means that Neuroticism has a much larger role than previously credited, and its study in research on development can explain the high variation found when examining the relationship between childhood and adulthood<br>Eventos na história de vida de um indivíduo, tais como eventos estressores da infância alteraram as estratégias que orientam o comportamento, especificamente as estratégias sexuais. A Psicologia Evolucionista do Desenvolvimento sugere que o desenvolvimento deve ser estudado através da integração de vários aspectos, como apego, estratégias sexuais, e personalidade. Parte importante e estável da psicologia, o fator de personalidade Neuroticismo reflete como as pessoas reagem a eventos de vida. Considerando isso, na presente tese foi analisada a relação entre eventos estressores da infância, neuroticismo e apego adulto. Foram entrevistadas 173 pessoas, 99 mulheres e 74 homens, com idades entre 18 a 45 anos (M = 29,57; DP = 7,35), com renda familiar de 1 a 3 SM. Foi aplicado o Inventário de Percepção de Eventos Estressores, a Escala Fatorial de Neuroticismo, e a Escala de Estilo de Relacionamento. Foi encontrada uma média de 16,59 eventos estressores ocorridos (DP= 5,82). Além dessa alta frequência, encontrou-se que quanto maior o número de eventos estressores, maior foi o estresse percebido, e os participantes perceberam os eventos como mais estressantes do que o esperado. Houve diferenças sexuais, com homens relatando mais eventos ligados à violência e autoridade, e as mulheres, mais eventos sociais. Elas também tendiam a perceber todos os eventos como mais estressantes e a ter escores mais altos de Neuroticismo. 42% da amostra tinha um estilo de apego seguro, menos do que o esperado. Por fim, a ocorrência de eventos estressores, o neuroticismo, idade, e renda explicaram 46% da variância do estilo de apego desta amostra. Uma análise de modelo estrutural mostrou que o neuroticismo mediava a relação entre ocorrência de eventos estressores e apego. Isso significa que o Neuroticismo tem um papel muito maior do que o anteriormente creditado, e seu estudo em pesquisas com desenvolvimento pode explicar a alta variabilidade encontrada quando se examina as relações entre infância e vida adulta

Abstract:
Two personality traits, Neuroticism and Extraversion can be reliably extracted from self-report personality questionnaires, whether the questionnaire has been devised from animal behavioural models, psychiatric observation or from adjectives found in the English (or other) language. Neuroticism correlates positively with low mood, Extraversion with high mood in healthy volunteers. Scores on personality factors, such Neuroticism (from the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire), are increased in unipolar depressed patients. Harm Avoidance and Neuroticism are highly correlated. Cloninger (1987) suggests that Harm Avoidance is related to brain serotonin mechanisms. Affective disorders and function of the 5-HT system have been linked through (1) clinical patients recovered from depressive disorder. The central hypothesis of this study is that high scores on the personality trait Neuroticism predispose to depressive mood changes following tryptophan depletion. Individuals who scored at the extreme ends of this scale were selected from a sample of 1031 volunteers to be compared in a case control design. Analysis of the whole sample confirms that Neuroticism and Extraversion can be extracted from Eysenck’s Personality Questionnaire-Revised (EPQ-R) alone and from the EPQ-R and the Tri-dimensional Personality Questionnaire (TPQ) when combined, in a sample of 897. Furthermore, Harm Avoidance and Neuroticism positively correlate with low mood measured by the Total General Health Questionnaire-28 (Spearman’s rho=.548, n=899, p<.01 and .515, n=899, p<.01 respectively), and Extraversion correlates with high mood measured by the Oxford Happiness Inventory (Pearson’s r=.495, n=896, p<.01). Participants who scored at the extreme ends of the Neuroticism scale (17 high and 15 low scorers) took part in a controlled double-blind cross-over study of tryptophan depletion. Before and 5 hours after amino-acid drinks a detailed assessment of mood, neuropsychological function and resting EEG was carried out. Scores on Neuroticism scale did not predict mood change. The effect size for change on the Befindlichskeitskala (a self-report mood measure sensitive to clinical change) between depletion and non-depletion days compared between high and low scorers was 0.39. This means that 210 subjects will be required to achieve a power of 80% with a two-tailed alpha of p<0.05. Neuroticism is, therefore, not an important predictor of individual serotonergic function in healthy volunteers, as assessed by tryptophan depletion.

Abstract:
Whilst the positive relationship between neuroticism and burnout is well-established within the extant literature, it is also acknowledged that neurotic individuals may differ in the extent to which they experience such detriments in well-being. In concordance with dual-processing theories of behaviour, it was suggested in this thesis that executive functions may enable one to enact in a ‘goal-orientated’ manner, and thus overcome one’s instinctive neurotic tendencies towards burnout. Through the four studies of this thesis, a research model was constructed and examined in which the core executive functions of working memory, active inhibition and task switching were proposed to reduce the extent to which neuroticism positively predicted burnout (which in studies 2 and 3 was suggested to occur via negative affect). Although the overall neuroticism-burnout relationship was not found to be conditional upon any of the three executive functions, there was some evidence that the constituent paths of an indirect neuroticism-burnout model (via negative affect) were moderated by executive functions. Specifically, active inhibition significantly decreased the negative affect-burnout relationship in study 2, and this relationship was found to be conditional on task-switching in study 3, to the extent that lower task-switching reduced the moderating effect of active inhibition on the relationship between negative affect and burnout. In study 3 it was also found that higher levels of working memory capacity were associated with a reduction in the neuroticism-negative affect relationship. The findings of this research did not support an overall moderating effect of executive functions, whilst only partly supporting the broader suggestion that executive functions may regulate the negative outcomes that occur when vulnerable individuals experience stressors. In light of the results of this thesis, limitations of the research were discussed (including methodological differences across studies and the use of unitary executive function measures) and suggestions made for future research (e.g. longitudinal study designs).

Abstract:
"Although some studies analyze neuroticism's role in individuals' response to acute stress, the results are controversial. There is a lack of studies examining the response to stressors of individuals with higher and lower neuroticism in all phases (during the period of anticipation of the stressor, at the time of exposure to the stressor, and during the recovery period after exposure to a stressor), measuring different physiological parameters and evaluating emotional response to a stressor at the same time. This study aimed to assess individuals with higher and lower neuroticism physiological and emotional responses to acute stress. 168 students participated in a study (23 males and 145 females). Their response to 4 different stressors (1 physical and 3 psychological (with standard instruction, the pressure to compete and critique) was evaluated, measuring the changes in their skin conductance, skin temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate while waiting for the stressor (anticipation phase), during the stressor and in the stress recovery phase. The changes in students ‘emotional responses were also measured using the C.R. Carlson et al. (1989) Emotional Assessment Scale (EAS). Students’ neuroticism was assessed using the NEO Five-Factor Inventory's neuroticism subscale (NEO-FFI, Costa, McCrae, 1992). The study results showed that students having higher and lower neuroticism differed when reacting to a physiological stressor. Students' responses to a psychological stressor differed only in the condition when they were criticized."

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of personality on parenting style in mothers of Greek adolescents aged 12-18. A total of 132 mothers were studied with the Parenting Style Four Factor Questionnaire (PS-FFQ), the Eysenk Personality Inventory (EPI) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). The results showed that mothers with higher level of neuroticism or lower level of psychoticism and extroversion tend to adopt authoritarian parenting style; mothers with lower level of extroversion, neuroticism, psychoticism, or trait anxiety tend to adopt authoritative parenting style; more extraverted or psychotic mothers more frequently adopt a permissive parenting style; mothers with higher level of neuroticism, tend to adopt an uninvolved parenting style.

Abstract:
Personality traits play a crucial role in shaping academic performance, influencing students’ learning behaviors, motivation, and ability to cope with challenges. This study examines the relationship between the Big Five personality traits—openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism—and academic achievement among students. A quantitative correlational research design was employed, with data collected from a sample of 65 students using a self-reported questionnaire. The reliability and validity of the instrument were 0.89 and 0.67, respectively. Results indicate that conscientiousness, openness, and agreeableness have a significant positive impact on academic achievement, while neuroticism negatively affects performance. Extraversion, however, does not show a statistically significant relationship with academic success. These findings suggest that self-discipline, curiosity, and emotional stability are key determinants of academic outcomes. The study recommends that educators incorporate personality-based learning strategies, provide mental health support for students with high neuroticism, and encourage structured goal-setting interventions for those with low conscientiousness. Understanding the role of personality in education can help develop targeted interventions to enhance student performance and overall learning experiences.
