“…Similarly, agreeableness can be predicted by GHQ-12A, GHQ-12B, and GHQ-12C. Although there is little evidence suggesting if agreeableness is related to social dysfunction & anhedonia, Yu et al [100] discovered that Agreeableness was positively linked to all ve aspects of social well-being. Kaplan et al [101] found that social anxiety had a weak but signi cant relationship with agreeableness.…”

Individuals are different in a relatively constant pattern of thoughts, feeling, behaviors, which are called personality traits. Mental health is a condition of well-being in which people may reach their full potential and deal effectively with stress, work efficiently, and contribute to their communities. Indeed, the link between personality and mental health as indicated by general health questionnaires (GHQ) has been well-established according to evidence found by decades of research. However, GHQ comprises many questions asking about different dimensions of mental health. It is unclear whether or not these components are associated with dimensions of personality. In this paper, we try to address this question. We replicated the factor structure of GHQ-12 and found that not all components of GHQ-12 are significant predictors of personality. Our study is the first study that used mental health to predict personality and argue against the notion that all subcomponents of mental health are associated with all dimensions of personality.

“…On the other hand, 3 months after the end of the lockdown, also the agreeableness trait emerged as a protective factor against worry levels. Agreeable people tend to have more resources for social support (Barańczuk, 2019;Yu et al, 2020) which contribute to reducing worry by means of positive social interactions and shared meaning-making regarding distressing events (Zysberg and Zisberg, 2020;Al-Omiri et al, 2021). The fact that such a protective factor emerged in the third phase specifically may be related to the renovated opportunities for social aggregation after the limitations imposed by the lockdown.…”

The Italian state adopted serious safety measures to manage the COVID-19 pandemic in the year 2020. The lockdown was associated with negative psychological consequences in healthy populations, mostly in terms of anxiety, distress, depression, and even traumatic symptoms. This longitudinal study aimed at briefly documenting the psychological impact among an Italian sample, in terms of worry and its impact on psychological well-being levels, of the first wave of COVID-19, taking into account the changes in the lockdown scenario. A three-time follow-up survey was administered to 177 subjects (Female: 78%, Mage = 36.33), during (T0), at the end (T1), and 3 months after the end of the first lockdown (T2). Since the first wave of COVID-19, results showed a decrease in worry and the perception of virus diffusion’s controllability over time while psychological well-being increased. Furthermore, factors such as personality traits (neuroticism and agreeableness) and dysfunctional coping strategies predicted increases in worry levels at the end of the lockdown and 3 months after in the Italian context. However, worry levels during and at the end of the lockdown did not predict well-being levels 3 months after the end of the lockdown. Based on these findings, mental health policymakers should design tailored interventions able to improve the perception of virus diffusion management, as well as address the psychological needs of Italian citizens and support it, including a plan for the follow-up evaluation.

“…also claimed that personality significantly affects teacher effectiveness and burnout. Moreover, the recent study by Yu et al (2021) revealed that personality affects social support and social well-being. Chis (2022) also claimed that personality is related to parenting and marital satisfaction.…”
