“…Although the relationship among ERP measures and personality is murky, a correlation between individual differences for personality-related arousal levels and P300 is generally observed: Low arousal individuals have smaller P300 amplitudes compared to high-arousal individuals who have larger P300 components (cf. Brocke, 2004;Brocke et al, 1997;De Pascalis, 2004;Stenberg, 1992). This relationship is modulated by biological factors (Polich and Kok, 1995), differences among paradigms (DiTraglia and Polich, 1991;Stenberg, 1994), and psychopathology (Iacono et al, 2002(Iacono et al, , 2003Justus et al, 2001).…”

The empirical and theoretical development of the P300 event-related brain potential (ERP) is reviewed by considering factors that contribute to its amplitude, latency, and general characteristics. The neuropsychological origins of the P3a and P3b subcomponents are detailed, and how target/ standard discrimination difficulty modulates scalp topography is discussed. The neural loci of P3a and P3b generation are outlined, and a cognitive model is proffered: P3a originates from stimulusdriven frontal attention mechanisms during task processing, whereas P3b originates from temporalparietal activity associated with attention and appears related to subsequent memory processing. Neurotransmitter actions associating P3a to frontal/dopaminergic and P3b to parietal/norepinephrine pathways are highlighted. Neuroinhibition is suggested as an overarching theoretical mechanism for P300, which is elicited when stimulus detection engages memory operations.

The Five-Factor Model: Psychometric, biological and practical perspectives

Hartmann, P. The Five-Factor Model: Psychometric, biological and practical perspectives. Nordic Psychology, 58, 150-170.The Five-Factor Model (FFM) of personality is a trait approach to the conceptualization of personality. The five dimensions of FFM can be measured validly, although some potential confounders still need to be resolved. Furthermore, these psychometric findings have links to biology, like moderate heritability and physiological correlates, which suggests a biological basis for the FFM. Finally, knowledge of a specific subject's standing on the five dimensions can predict real life behaviour, thereby providing important information in relation to diagnosis, intervention and future outcomes. Although the FFM is only one among several approaches to personality it provides a platform for combining other approaches to personality, with the ultimate goal of providing a unified, research based framework for describing, explaining and doing research in personality.

“…Svaka osobina je podržana složenim moždanim funkcijama, i svaki moždani sistem doprinosi manifestaciji većeg broja osobina (Zuckerman, 1991). Na osnovu istraživanja biopsihološke osnove mnogih osobina ličnosti, Zakerman je razvio pristup u kom su postulirani različiti nivoi osobina, koji omogućuju njihovu adekvatnu deskripciju (Brocke, 2004). Prvi nivo u njegovoj hijerarhiji predstavljaju psihometrijski operacionalizovane osobine, koje se zasnivaju na konzistentnim obrascima ponašanja i naviknutim kognitivnim reakcijama u određenim situacijama (drugi nivo).…”

Heritability of dimensions of Eysenck's pen model and the alternative five-factor model of personality

et al. 2006

The main aim of this study is to estimate the heritability of AFFM and PEN dimensions, including 67 pairs of twins (34 monozygotic and 33 dizygotic) of both genders, aged 18 - 44. The heritability has been estimated by the biometric method, two full (ACE and ADE) and three reduced (AE, DE and CE) models tested for each personality trait. Taking into consideration the AFFM dimensions, additive genetic factors and a non-shared environment contribute the most significantly to the phenotypic variation of activity, sociability and the impulsive sensation seeking; anxiety and aggressiveness are best accounted for by the dominant genetic effects. In the PEN domain, fit indicators suggest that ACE and the reduced AE models provide the best explanation for the phenotypic manifestations of neuroticism, while ACE and CE models account for the variation of L scale. Although the fit indicators calculated for extraversion and psychotic behavior are somewhat problematic, the parameter estimates show that extraversion is best accounted for by the additive genetic variance, shared environmental effects, and the non-shared environment, whereas psychotic behavior is the most adequately explained by both shared and non-shared environmental effects
