We tested hypothesized across-time associations of personality traits with the affective state of global vigor and its physical, emotional, and cognitive facets. The study was carried out in the context of work, where vigor represents a discrete, positive affective response to one's ongoing interactions with specific elements of the work environment. Our model was based on the bifactor approach to modeling second-order constructs in structural equation modeling. Data were gathered from 1,217 reportedly healthy respondents who underwent a periodical health examination at Time 1 (T1) and Time 2 (T2), about 24 months apart. We found that, independent of T1 and T2 global vigor, agreeableness and conscientiousness predicted both T1 and T2 levels of vigor's emotional facet, and openness predicted vigor's cognitive facet at both T1 and T2.
我们测试了人格特质与全球活力的情感状态及其身体、情感和认知方面在时间上的假设关联。这项研究是在工作环境中进行的，活力代表了对与工作环境特定元素持续互动的积极情感反应。我们的模型基于结构方程建模中二阶结构的双因素方法。数据来自 1217 名据称健康的受访者，他们在 T1（时间 1）和 T2（时间 2）进行了定期健康检查，相隔约 24 个月。我们发现，独立于 T1 和 T2 全球活力，宜人性和尽责性预测了活力情感方面的 T1 和 T2 水平，开放性预测了 T1 和 T2 活力认知方面的水平。
