“…First, cross-sectional and longitudinal research suggest age differences and age-related changes in agreeableness and neuroticism across the lifespan (Allemand, Zimprich, & Hendriks, 2008;Allemand, Zimprich, & Martin, 2008;Donnellan & Lucas, 2008;Roberts, Wood, & Caspi, 2008;Srivastava, John, Gosling, & Potter, 2003;Terracciano, McCrae, Brant, & Costa, 2005).
