Abstract

1,084 older Medicare recipients were orally administered the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI; P. T. Costa & R. R. McCrae, 1992). Participants were assigned to groups based on gender and age (65-79 or 80-100). An analysis of covariance showed that women had significantly higher Neuroticism, Openness, and Agreeableness scores; that older participants were significantly higher in Agreeableness; and that age differences in Agreeableness were significantly greater in men than in women. With the exception of Agreeableness, this study provides no evidence for age differences among those in the last decades of life.

摘要

1084名老年医疗保险受益人口服了大五人格量表简版（NEO-FFI；P.T. 科斯塔和R.R. 麦克雷，1992年）。参与者根据性别和年龄（65 - 79岁或80 - 100岁）分组。协方差分析表明，女性在神经质、开放性和宜人性方面的得分显著更高；年龄较大的参与者在宜人性方面得分显著更高；而且男性在宜人性方面的年龄差异比女性显著更大。除宜人性外，本研究没有提供证据表明在生命的最后几十年中存在年龄差异。
