“…Trait positive affect was also related to all Big Five traits, correlating most strongly with extraversion (r = 0.58), followed by conscientiousness (r = 0.37), openness (r = 0.33), neuroticism (r = −0.29), and agreeableness (r = 0.21). In addition, other research has found that state conscientiousness is positively associated with positive affect (Schutte et al, 2003). In sum, the pattern that emerges based on existing research is that trait affect is an integral component of all Big Five traits.…”

“…A great deal of research has examined the associations between the Big Five personality traits and positive and negative affect at the trait level. The most intensively studied associations between personality and affect have been the associations between extraversion and positive affect and neuroticism and negative affect (Charles, Reynolds, & Gatz, 2001;Costa & McCrae, 1980a;David, Green, Martin, & Suls, 1997;DeNeve & Cooper, 1998;Diener, Oishi, & Lucas, 2003;Diener, Suh, Lucas, & Smith, 1999;Fossum & Barrett, 2000;Gross, Sutton, & Ketelaar, 1998;Izard, Libero, Putnam, & Haynes, 1993;Larsen & Ketelaar, 1989, 1991Lucas & Fujita, 2000;McCrae & Costa, 1991;Meyer & Shack, 1989;Rusting, 1999;Schutte, Malouff, Segrera, Wolf, & Rodgers, 2003;Spain, Eaton, & Funder, 2000;Suh, Diener, & Fujita, 1996;Watson & Clark, 1992). One meta-analysis found that extraversion correlated 0.37 with positive affect (Lucas & Fujita, 2000).…”

Are fluctuations in personality states more than fluctuations in affect?

People fluctuate in their behavior as they go about their daily lives, but little is known about the processes underlying these fluctuations. In two ecological momentary assessment studies (Ns = 124, 415), we examined the extent to which negative and positive affect accounted for the within-person variance in Big Five states. Participants were prompted six times a day over six days (Study 1) or four times a day over two weeks (Study 2) to report their recent thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Multilevel modeling results indicated that negative and positive affect account for most, but not all, of the within-person variance in personality states. Importantly, situation variables predicted variance in some personality states even after accounting for fluctuations in affect, indicating that fluctuations in personality states may be more than fluctuations in state affect.

“…An early study showed that momentary extraverted states were related to positive affect states (Schutte, Malouff, Segrera, Wolf, & Rodgers, 2003), and multiple studies employing experience sampling methodology (ESM) have shown that increases in state extraversion are related to increases in state positive affect in naturalistic settings (Bleidorn & Denissen, 2015; Fleeson, Malanos, & Achille, 2002; Heller, Komar, & Lee, 2007; Wilt, Noftle, Spain, & Fleeson, 2012). The relation between extraverted states and positive affect in ESM studies has also been observed in non-Western cultures, including Venezuela, the Philippines, China, and Japan (Ching et al, 2014).…”

The present research examined whether perceived rate of progress toward a goal (velocity) mediated the relationships between personality states and affective states. Drawing from control theories of self-regulation, we hypothesized (i) that increased velocity would mediate the association between state extraversion and state positive affect, and (ii) that decreased velocity would mediate the association between state neuroticism and state negative affect. We tested these hypotheses in 2 experience sampling methodology studies that each spanned 2 weeks. Multilevel modeling analyses showed support for each of the bivariate links in our model, and multilevel path analyses supported our mediation hypotheses. We discuss implications for understanding the relations between personality states and affective states, control theories of self-regulation, and goal striving.

“…Moreover, Schutte, Malouff, Segrera, Wolf, and Rodgers, (2003) devised a Big Five States Inventory which started from the hierarchical model of personality. Traits are conceptualized as higher-level, enduring characteristics, while states are lower-level, less enduring characteristics (p. 592).…”

Dynamics of the General Factor of Personality in Response to a Single Dose of Caffeine

General Factor of Personality (GFP) research is an emergent field in personality research. This paper uses a theoretical mathematical model to predict the short-term effects of a dose of a stimulant drug on GFP and reports the results of an experiment showing how caffeine achieves this. This study considers the General Factor of Personality Questionnaire (GFPQ) a good psychometric approach to assess GFP. The GFP dynamic mechanism of change is based on the Unique Trait Personality Theory (UTPT). This theory proposes the existence of GFP which occupies the apex of the hierarchy of personality, and extends from an impulsiveness-and-aggressiveness pole (approach tendency) to an anxiety-andintroversion pole (avoidance tendency). An experiment with 25 volunteers was performed. All the participants completed the GFPQ and the Sensation-Seeking Scale list of adjectives from the trait version of MAACL-R (Multiple Affect Adjective Checklist Revised) on an empty stomach. The participants in the experimental group (20) received 330 mg of caffeine. All the participants filled in a state version form with the sensation-seeking adjectives every 4.5 minutes. This study considers that the Sensation-Seeking Scale list of adjectives from the MAACL-R, available in both trait and state versions, is a good psychometric approach to assess GFP. The results show that GFP is modified by a single dose of caffeine in the direction predicted by the UTPT. Keywords: general factor of personality, unique trait, sensation seeking, personality dynamic model, caffeine.La investigación sobre el Factor General de Personalidad (FGP) es un campo emergente en la investigación sobre personalidad. Este artículo presenta un modelo matemático y teórico para predecir los efectos a corto plazo de una dosis de droga estimulante sobre el FGP y presenta los resultados de un experimento con café. El Cuestionario del Factor General de Personalidad (CFGP) es aquí considerado como una buena aproximación psicométrica para medir el FGP. Los mecanismos dinámicos de cambio del FGP están basados en la Teoría del Rasgo Único de Personalidad (TRUP). Esta teoría propone la existencia de un FGP que se sitúa en la cúspide de la estructura jerárquica de personalidad, y se extiende desde un polo de agresividad-impulsividad (tendencia de aproximación) hasta un polo de introversión-ansiedad (tendencia de evitación). Se llevó a cabo un experimento con 25 voluntarios. Todos los participantes cumplimentaron en ayunas el Cuestionario del Factor General de Personalidad (CFGP) y la lista de adjetivos de búsqueda de sensaciones del MAACL-R en su versión de rasgo. Los participantes del grupo experimental (20) recibieron 330 mg de cafeína. Todos los participantes cumplimentaron un cuestionario con los adjetivos de búsqueda de sensaciones, en su versión de estado, cada 4.5 minutos. En este estudio se considera que la escala de adjetivos de búsqueda de sensaciones del MAACL-R, tanto en versión rasgo como estado, es una buena aproximación psicométrica del FGP. Los resultados muestran que un...
