“…Variability in the ways in which olfactory environment is experienced has been related to various between- and within-gender differences 3 , 8 – 10 . One of the probably relatively less influential factors in general, which nevertheless deserves attention, is personality or temperament.…”

Children’s olfactory performance is associated with temperament but whether there is a link with olfactory reactivity and awareness is not known. In adults negative affectivity is linked to reactivity to environmental odours but it is not clear whether these associations extend to children. We aimed to investigate the effect of temperamental factors on olfactory reactivity and awareness. In so doing, we controlled for the effect of parenting styles on temperamental assessment and of verbal fluency on children’s olfactory reactivity and awareness. We hypothesised that children with a high degree of negative affectivity would show greater olfactory reactivity and awareness. 129 children (62 boys, mean age 6.83 ± 0.40 years) were interviewed about their olfactory reactivity and awareness in everyday life using the established Children’s Olfactory Behavior in Everyday Life questionnaire (COBEL). Parents assessed their child’s temperament using the 94-item short form of the Children’s Behavior Questionnaire. We found that the relationship between negative affectivity and total COBEL scores varied between the genders: there was a positive, medium to large effect in boys and a negative, small one in girls. Future studies could include behavioural observations of temperament and olfactory reactivity and awareness.
