“…We expected negative associations of impulsivity with agreeableness and conscientiousness scores and positive associations with neuroticism and extraversion scores. In the BPD group, agreeableness had a negative effect on impulsivity at the between-person level, in line with our hypothesis and corroborating previous findings (Aslan & Cheung-Blunden, 2012; Hopwood & Zanarini, 2010; Seibert, Miller, Pryor, Reidy, & Zeichner, 2010). Parallel to the between-person level, agreeableness also had a negative main effect on momentary impulsivity and significantly interacted with CSC.…”

“…Last, in line with our hypothesis, extraversion had a positive effect on impulsivity at the momentary level (though not at the person level), which adds to previous evidence on the role of extraversion in trait impulsivity (Aslan & Cheung-Blunden, 2012; Seibert et al, 2010). In addition to highly extraverted individuals being more likely to show momentary impulsivity, extraversion also interacted with CSC in predicting impulsivity.…”

Past studies identify Five Factor Model (FFM) domains that are characteristic of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), including those associated with specific BPD symptoms, at a between-person level. The present study replicated these between-person associations and extended past research by assessing whether the FFM explains within-person variance in the manifestation of momentary BPD symptoms in the presence or absence of close social contact (CSC). We measured CSC and the BPD core symptoms negative affectivity, impulsivity, and interpersonal problems in 74 BPD patients and in a clinical control group of 40 depressed patients over the course of 28 days, six times a day. The FFM domains showed specificity in predicting momentary BPD symptoms and interacted with CSC in doing so. In particular, for BPD individuals only, momentary impulsivity and interpersonal problems were associated with higher Neuroticism and Extraversion and lower Agreeableness, and these associations were especially strong in situations involving CSC. Negative affectivity was predicted by Neuroticism for both groups of individuals, and this association was generally unaffected by CSC. Overall, experiencing CSC was positively associated with momentary BPD symptoms. Thus, both the FFM and CSC were associated with BPD patients’ experience of symptoms in everyday life. Furthermore, specific FFM trait domains were particularly impactful in contexts where BPD symptoms are more likely to be manifested, providing further evidence that person-by-situation interactions are important for understanding BPD symptoms in the moment.

“…The sensation seeking (SS) dimension, included in the Five-Factor Model of Personality ( Aluja, Kuhlman, & Zuckerman, 2010 ), is assessed through the Zuckerman-Kuhlman-Aluja Personality Questionnaire (ZKA-PQ). Nevertheless, Aslan and Cheung-Blunden ( 2012 ) recently showed that EF-related factors were not significantly linked to dimensions assessed through the Five-Factor Model of Personality, suggesting that more work is needed to better understand such relations.…”

Background. Adolescence represents a critical period for brain development, addressed by neurodevelopmental models to frontal, subcortical-limbic, and striatal activation, a pattern associated with rise of impulsivity and deficits in inhibitory control. The present study aimed at studying the association between self-report measures of impulsivity and inhibitory control with executive function in adolescents, employing structural equation modeling. Method. Tests were administered to 434 high school students. Acting without thinking was measured through the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale and the Dickman Impulsivity Inventory, reward sensitivity through the Behavioral Activation System, and sensation seeking through the Zuckerman–Kuhlman–Aluja Personali- ty Questionnaire. Inhibitory control was assessed through the Behavioral Inhibition System. The performance at the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task indicated executive function. Three models were specified using Sample Covariance Matrix, and the estimated parameters using Maximum Likelihood. Results. In the final model, impulsivity and inhibitory control predicted executive function, but sensation seeking did not. The fit of the model to data was excellent. Conclusions. The hypothesis that inhibitory control and impulsivity are predictors of executive function was supported. Our results appear informative of the validity of self-report measures to examine the relation between impulsivity traits rather than others to regulatory function of cognition and behavior.

“…In the present case, it is helpful to think of each rater as a single item on a questionnaire. Our method is consistent with the general practice in behavioural coding where intercoder reliability is calculated by treating each coder as if he/she were an item on a questionnaire (Aslan & Cheung-Blunden, 2012). The equivalence between a series of items in a scale and a set of ratings made by different judges was explained in detail by Bravo and Potvin (1991).…”
