Three converging, multimethod studies examined personality and emotional processes. Study 1 (N = 321) examined links among sex, personality, and expectations for emotional events. In Study 2, participants (N = 468) described contents of emotionally evocative slides to a partner (either a friend or a stranger). Participants reported their emotional experience, efforts to control emotion, and the anticipated reactions of their partners. Structural modeling of self-report data and analyses of observational data indicated that Agreeableness and sex were significant predictors of emotional experience and of efforts to control emotion. Study 3 (N = 68) replicated and extended the two previous studies using psychophysiological methods to examine responses to positively and negatively charged emotional materials. Outcomes are discussed in terms of processes underlying the five-factor structural dimension of Agreeableness and links to emotional self-regulation.
三项相互关联的多方法研究考察了人格与情绪过程。研究1（N = 321）考察了性别、人格与对情绪事件的期望之间的联系。在研究2中，参与者（N = 468）向一名伙伴（朋友或陌生人）描述引发情绪的幻灯片内容。参与者报告了他们的情绪体验、控制情绪的努力以及对伙伴预期反应。自我报告数据的结构建模和观察数据的分析表明，宜人性和性别是情绪体验以及控制情绪努力的重要预测因素。研究3（N = 68）使用心理生理学方法重复并扩展了前两项研究，以考察对正负性情绪材料的反应。研究结果根据宜人性五因素结构维度的潜在过程以及与情绪自我调节的联系进行了讨论。
