“…The Mini-IPIP is a 20-item measure of the Big-Five personality factors including extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience evaluated on a 7-point Likert-type scale (1 = very inaccurate, 7 = very accurate; Donnellan, Oswald, Baird, & Lucas, 2006). Evidence of internal consistency, structural, convergent, and discriminant validity were found for the Chinese adaptation (Chinese version translated by Li, Sang, Wang, & Shi, 2012).…”

What is the temperamental basis of humour like in China? A cross‐national examination and validation of the standard version of the state–trait cheerfulness inventory

et al. 2019

The State–Trait Cheerfulness Inventory–trait version (STCI‐T60) consists of three dimensions of cheerfulness, seriousness, and bad mood integrated to measure the temperamental basis of the sense of humour. The present study replicated the three‐dimensional factor structure of the STCI in China using 60 items consistent with other standard trait versions (e.g., English, Chilean‐Spanish). Closer examination of associations between traits suggested bad mood showed curvilinear associations with both cheerfulness and seriousness, such that cheerfulness and bad mood were negatively associated for those low and average in trait bad mood but not for those with high trait bad mood. Seriousness was positively associated with bad mood at high levels of trait bad mood, but not at average or low levels of bad mood. Associations between the STCI traits and major personality dimensions, humour styles, and well‐being were further examined. Cheerfulness and seriousness showed positive associations with satisfaction with life and emotional well‐being (EWB) while bad mood showed a curvilinear association with EWB. Using multi‐group confirmatory factor analyses, partial metric invariance was found between English and Chinese versions of the STCI‐T60, but structural invariance was not observed. Implications based on the empirical literature in dialecticism and cross‐cultural assessment were thoroughly discussed.

“…Scores on other personality scales were in the average range (Talbert et al, ). More recent studies of diverse samples have likewise shown a consistent positive relationship between neuroticism and PTSD, as well as a negative relationship between agreeableness and PTSD (Chung, Berger, Jones, & Rudd, ; Clark & Owens, ; Contractor, Armour, Shea, Mota, & Pietrzak, ; Li, Sang, Wang, & Shi, ; Rubin, Boals, & Berntsen, ). Many of these same studies have shown a negative relationship between conscientiousness and PTSD as well (Clark & Owens, ; Contractor et al, ; Rubin, Boals, & Berntsen, ).…”

“…The consistency across these studies suggests that neuroticism is likely a risk factor for PTSD following trauma, whereas agreeableness and conscientiousness may provide protection from the development of PTSD. Across the literature, openness to experience and extraversion have shown less consistent relationships with PTSD symptoms with various studies indicating positive, negative, or neutral relationships (Chung et al, ; Clark & Owens, ; Contractor et al, ; Li et al, ; Rubin, Boals, & Berntsen, ).…”

Hansen, and Heir (2016) examined the relationship between event centrality and PTSD symptoms over time. Their results show that those with high rates of centrality 1 year after a traumatic experience show higher rates of PTSD 1, 2, and 3 years after the trauma, whereas those with low centrality scores at 1 year show lower, steady rates of PTSD symptoms across time (Blix et al., 2016). Research also suggests that acceptance and commitment therapy with a special emphasis on decentralization of the trauma can help to reduce event centrality

An Exploratory Investigation of the Role of Openness in Relationship Quality among Emerging Adult Chinese Couples

et al. 2017

This study tested emerging adult couples’ openness and its fit effect on their romantic relationship quality using quadratic polynomial regression and response surface analysis. Participants were 260 emerging adult dyads. Both dyads’ openness and relationship quality were measured. The result showed that (1) female and male openness contribute differently to relationship quality; (2) couples with similar high openness could experience better relationship quality than those with similar low openness traits; and (3) when dyadic openness is dissimilar, it is better to be either relatively high or relatively low than to be moderate. These findings highlight the role of openness in emerging adults’ romantic relationships from a dyadic angle.
