The relationship between personality and postural stability has received little attention. This study addressed whether neuroticism and extraversion correlate with changes in postural stability while performing cognitive tasks related to brain regions selectively associated with neuroticism and extraversion. Thirty-two adults stood on a foam mat in tandem stance and completed a 2-back task and a weather prediction task (WPT). As predicted, higher neuroticism was related to increased dual task sway during the 2-back task, = 0.40, = 0.023, and lower extraversion was related to increased dual task sway during the WPT, = -0.43, = 0.013, suggesting that personality is related to postural stability in healthy young adults and that personality could be considered in the prediction and treatment of individuals with balance difficulties.
人格与姿势稳定性之间的关系尚未得到充分关注。本研究旨在探讨神经质和外向性是否与执行与神经质和外向性相关的脑区认知任务时的姿势稳定性变化相关。32 名成年人采用并足姿势站在泡沫垫上，完成了 2 -back 任务和天气预测任务（WPT）。正如所预测的那样，较高的神经质与 2-back 任务时的双重任务摆动增加有关，r=0.40，p=0.023，较低的外向性与 WPT 时的双重任务摆动增加有关，r=-0.43，p=0.013，这表明人格与健康年轻成年人的姿势稳定性有关，并且可以考虑在预测和治疗平衡困难的个体时考虑人格。
