“…A lack of self-reinforcement could not only represent a form of self-directed aggressive behavior but also the capability for delayed gratification, which is associated with consciousness (Furnham and Cheng, 2019). Therefore, given that it is essential to aggressive behavior that it is committed with intention (Allen and Anderson, 2017), our finding of a small and insignificant association between the TPA-SD and consciousness supports the discriminant validity of the scale.…”

Background: To date, most research on aggression in mental disorders focused on active-aggressive behavior and found self-directed and other-directed active aggression to be a symptom and risk-factor of psychopathology. On the other hand, passive-aggressive behavior has been investigated less frequently and only in research on psychodynamic defense mechanisms, personality disorders, and dysfunctional self-control processes. This small number of studies primarily reflects a lack of a reliable and valid clinical assessment of passive-aggressive behavior. To address this gap, we developed the Test of Passive Aggression (TPA), a 24-item self-rating scale for the assessment of self-directed and other-directed passive-aggressive behavior.Method: Study 1 examined the internal consistency and factorial validity of the TPA in an inpatient sample (N = 307). Study 2 investigated the retest-reliability, internal consistency, and construct validity (active aggression, personality traits, impulsivity) of the TPA in a student sample (N = 180).Results: In line with our hypothesis, Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling revealed an acceptable to good fit of a bi-factorial structure of the TPA (Chi-square-df-ratio = 1.98; RMSR = 0.05, fit.off = 0.96). Both TPA scales showed good to excellent internal consistency (α = 0.83–0.90) and 4-week retest-reliability (rtt = 0.86). Correlations with well-established aggression scales, measures of personality, and impulsivity support discriminant and convergent validity of the TPA.Conclusions: The TPA is a reliable and valid instrument for the assessment of self-directed and other-directed passive-aggressive behavior.

“…Thus, the individual personality differences can be effectively measured by ranking individuals on each of these traits. However, the maladaptive extremes of the Big Five traits will leave their adverse effects on mental health conditions [21]. Over-conscientiousness, for instance, foretells obsessive-compulsive disorder, whereas low conscientiousness indicates substance abuse as well as other "impulse control disorders".…”

For socially intelligent agents to become a fully digital therapist to support individual with mental health problem in the future, they need to know how to socially interact with humans. One of the key ingredients to allow this skill to take place is an ability to exhibit empathic behaviours. Despite a number of socially intelligent agents were build with empathic behaviour, they only cover single empathy behaviour, contrary to more complex triadic empathic behaviours. In this article, the conceptual design and model to implement triadic empathy in socially intelligent agents is presented.

“…It is still considered a gold standard in personality assessment [2][3][4][5]. The Big Five personality traits can predict positive mental health, psychological well-being, happiness, emotional health, public health, and psychopathology [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22].…”

Aim: This study explored the association of the Big Five personality traits (OCEAN: openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism) with current depression and a history of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. Methods: A sample of 115 undergraduate students in the United States was administered measures of the Beck Depression Inventory, and the 15-item Big Five personality Inventory. The students were also asked whether they had ever thought about suicide in the past and whether they had ever-attempted suicide in the past. Results: Four of the Big Five personality trait scores (conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism) were associated with depression scores, accounting for 36% of the variance in depression scores. Among the Big Five personality traits, neuroticism was positively associated with depression, while conscientiousness, extraversion, and agreeableness were negatively associated with depression. Conclusions: The Big Five personality traits scores did not predict a history of suicide attempts in the sample of American students, but neuroticism scores were associated with a history of suicidal ideation.
