“…(2018). Finally, the study of Beckmann et al. (2020) reported mixed findings, with within-person personality variability in Neuroticism being negatively related to job performance, while within-person personality variability in Agreeableness positively predicted supervisor evaluations of performance.…”

“…Empirical studies on the correlates of within-person personality variability have shown that within-person personality variability is mildly positively associated across personality dimensions, suggesting that people who vary a lot on one dimension also tend to vary a lot on other dimensions (Beckmann et al., 2020; Dalal et al., 2015; Fleeson, 2001). Moreover, research has also looked into mechanisms that underlie within-person personality variability.…”

“…Theoretically speaking, there exist two different—and competing—perspectives on the meaning and role of within-person personality variability (Beckmann et al., 2020). According to the first perspective, within-person personality variability is indicative of a lack of an integrated inner core identity (Donahue et al., 1993).…”

“…Based on the work by Mestdagh et al. (2018), we adopt a variability index that provides an unbiased measure of within-person personality variability in the sense that it directly rectifies the dependency between the average state level and within-person personality variability (see also Beckmann et al., 2020). This relative variability index calculates for each average state level the maximum possible variation provided the boundedness of the scale, and then rescales each raw variability score using this maximum possible variation.…”

Relating within-person personality variability to organizational citizenship behavior and counterproductive work behavior: A resource-based perspective

Research on the effects of within-person personality variability has mainly focused on the consequences for subjective well-being. Drawing on a resource-based approach, we extend this field to the work domain, expecting that since deviating from one’s average trait level is resource intensive, it should relate negatively to behaviors that require the investment of additional resources, such as organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), while it should relate positively to behaviors that replenish one’s resources, such as counterproductive work behavior. Using two personality dimensions that are predictive for work-performance (conscientiousness and core self-evaluations), and a new variability index that is not confounded by the mean, we find an effect of personality variability on negative performance outcomes (counterproductive work behavior), while no relation is found with positive forms of extra-role performance (organizational citizenship behavior). These results were replicated across three separate experience sampling studies, confirming that, while within-person personality variability is related to performance, those relationships are relatively weak and they do not hold for every performance facet.

“…professional v. private). Because the behavioral code is more prescribed in professional contexts, leading to less variability and more adaptive behavior (Beckmann et al, 2020), we assumed that situational perception would be influenced similarly across contexts by borderline symptomatology, although manifestation of symptoms in response to perceptions would be more likely at home, due to the constraining nature of professional environments.…”

Background Recent research has emphasized the importance of within-person transactions between situational perceptions and borderline symptomatology. The current study extends current evidence by evaluating a broad range of situational perceptions and their transactions with borderline symptomatology across both private and professional contexts. Additionally, it explores whether early experiences of parental harsh punishment and emotional support during childhood, two well-established etiological factors in developmental theories of borderline symptomatology, influence the effect of daily situation perception in adulthood on borderline symptom presentation. Methods N = 131 young adults (Mage = 20.97, s.d. age = 1.64) completed end-of-day diaries of their borderline symptoms and perceptions of the home and school or work environment for 14 days. During their mid-childhood, reports of maternal strategies of harsh punishment and emotional support were collected. Results Findings revealed that on the same day, borderline symptoms were associated with more negative and stressful, and less positive perceptions of both the private and professional context. Additionally, borderline symptoms predicted more negative and stressful perceptions of school/work on subsequent days. Finally, while early harsh punishment predicted overall increases in daily borderline symptoms 10 years later, emotionally supportive parenting in childhood predicted decreases in borderline symptom expression in less positive and more stressful contexts. Conclusions The current study points to the importance of managing BPD symptoms to reduce subsequent negative perceptions of the environment, and also indicates the relevance of exploring adult person-situation processes based on early parenting experiences.
