“…We found among internalizers a greater prevalence of an unfavourable or dysfunctional coping style (emotional and avoidant), which makes plausible the claim that the effort to focus on the emotion and to avoid the threatening situation that overflows the personal balance can be an explanatory mechanism for the association between internalizing personality type and perceived disturbance. This finding is in line with those of Gómez et al (2002), Gross et al (1998) and Uziel (2006) regarding the information processing biases typical of those who score high in neuroticism, and also in line with the typology of overcontrollers (Kerber, Roth and Herzberg, 2021).…”

The concepts of internalization and externalization have been proposed as personality tendencies or traits related to the constructs of neuroticism and extraversion. They have been associated to the bifactorial structure of affect and also to the coping style. This paper examines the interaction of personality, affect and coping in a sample of people diagnosed with personality disorder (n= 358). Negative affect (NA) in internalizers is higher than in externalizers (g= 0.62), and so is the severity of symptoms (GSI: g= 0.60). Mediation analyses show that personality type produces an indirect effect on GSI, with NA and coping style as partial mediators. 88.1 % of the sample has an unfavourable coping style (U-CS). The frequency of U-CS among internalizers is bigger than among externalizers (93% vs 83%; 2= 7.23, p= .007). However, the subgroup of internalizers with a favourable coping style (F-CS) shows no difference with externalizers with the same F-CS, either in NA (p= .428) or in GSI (p= .082). Regardless of personality structure, promoting adaptive strategies of coping can alleviate the psycopathology of severe patients.

“…Person-culture personality (PCP) fit was operationally defined as the similarity between each participant's personality profile and the average personality profile for the country in which they resided. We used cluster analysis, calculated based on average Euclidean distance (Gerlach et al, 2018;Kerber, Roth, & Herzberg, 2021) to quantify the similarity between each participant's personality profile and the average country-level personality profile. The average Euclidean distance between personality profiles was calculated using the following formula:…”

In general, people are influenced by the standards set forth by groups of others; however, the levels of such conformity vary between people and across cultures. Here, we investigated factors related to country-level personality profile conformity (i.e., person-culture personality fit) across ∼5.9 million participants, residing in 57 different countries. We examined how each of the Big Five personality traits and cultural tightness are associated with variation in person-culture personality fit. We found that scoring higher in Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness and residing in a tight cultural context explains increased personality profile conformity, while scoring higher in Openness and Neuroticism and residing in a loose cultural context explains lower personality profile conformity. Furthermore, we found that Openness and Extraversion interact with cultural context to predict levels of personality profile conformity. These findings reveal that both dispositional and cultural factors correspond to the tendency to conform to country-level norms.
