This study aimed to unveil the intellectual structure and evaluate the relationship between personality traits and stress through bibliometric analysis. Through a systematic approach, a dataset including descriptions of personality traits and stress was downloaded from the Scopus database. Scientific bibliometric analyses, such as performance analysis, trend analysis, and science mapping, have been performed to extract the results. The findings revealed the intellectual structure (which includes a thematic map, recent trends, and thematic evolution) behind the relationship between stress and personality traits. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive review of the relationship between stress and personality traits, which professionals and researchers can use for further in-depth studies. This study also provides notes on recruiting the right candidates based on personality traits for recruiters after processing the scientific data. Since 1945, studies examining the relationship between personality traits and stress have been conducted, and this study is considered the first attempt to analyze the existing literature and provide a comprehensive guide on this relationship.
