This study examined the relationship between the Big Five personality traits and insomnia symptoms in the general population. Additionally, the mediating role of anxiety and depression was examined. Participants (N = 625) completed online measures of the big five personality traits and insomnia severity. Insomnia symptoms were independently related to extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability, anxiety and depression in univariate analysis. Linear regression determined conscientiousness and emotional stability to be the only traits predicting insomnia symptoms. However, these relationships were at least partially mediated by anxiety and depression. Whilst reduced levels of conscientiousness and emotional stability has previously associated with poor sleep and insomnia, the current outcomes shed light on the mechanisms which serve to mediate this relationship.
本研究考察了一般人群中“大五”人格特质与失眠症状之间的关系。此外,还考察了焦虑和抑郁的中介作用。参与者(N = 625)完成了“大五”人格特质和失眠严重程度的在线测量。在单变量分析中,失眠症状与外向性、宜人性、尽责性、情绪稳定性、焦虑和抑郁独立相关。线性回归确定尽责性和情绪稳定性是预测失眠症状的唯一特质。然而,这些关系至少部分由焦虑和抑郁介导。虽然之前已经发现尽责性和情绪稳定性水平降低与睡眠不佳和失眠有关,但目前的结果揭示了介导这种关系的机制。
