The relationship between personality traits and Quality of Life (QoL) has garnered increasing scholarly attention, particularly within the context of China. This scoping review synthesizes existing literature on the connection between the Big Five personality traits (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism) and QoL among the Chinese population. The review explores correlations, measurement instruments, and theoretical frameworks employed in these studies. The study's significance lies in the profound implications for healthcare policies, organizational behavior, and social welfare programs in China, where rapid social and economic changes impact well-being. Investigating personality traits' impact on QoL can inform tailored interventions benefiting diverse Chinese subpopulations. This review addresses three primary research questions: (1) How do the Big Five personality traits correlate with QoL in different Chinese subpopulations, and what are the mediating or moderating factors? (2) What instruments assess these traits and QoL in the Chinese cultural context, and how are they validated? (3) What theoretical or disciplinary frameworks guide this research in China? Following a systematic PRISMA-ScR framework and a customized "C-BFQLC" protocol, the study identified 170 relevant documents. After rigorous screening, ten studies met the inclusion criteria, constituting 5.03% of the initial records. This scoping review critically examines the interplay between the Big Five personality traits and QoL in China, a context marked by rapid socioeconomic changes and cultural diversity. Employing a systematic approach guided by the PRISMA-ScR framework and our unique 'C-BFQLC' protocol, we meticulously analyzed 170 documents, selecting nine that met our rigorous inclusion criteria. Despite the emerging nature of this research area in the Chinese context, our study reveals significant insights into how individual personality traits influence various dimensions of well-being. The implications of these findings are profound, extending beyond academic discourse to inform healthcare policies, organizational behavior, and social welfare programs in China. Our review not only offers a comprehensive synthesis of the current research landscape but also identifies critical gaps in the literature. It emphasizes the urgent need for further culturally nuanced research to understand the complex dynamics of personality traits and QoL in China. This work lays a foundational framework for future investigations and the development of tailored interventions aimed at enhancing the well-being of diverse Chinese populations, including the elderly, people with disabilities, and specific occupational groups.
人格特质与生活质量（QoL）之间的关系已引起越来越多的学术关注，尤其是在中国背景下。本范围综述综合了关于中国人群中“大五”人格特质（开放性、尽责性、外向性、宜人性和神经质）与生活质量之间联系的现有文献。该综述探讨了这些研究中所采用的相关性、测量工具和理论框架。该研究的意义在于对中国的医疗政策、组织行为和社会福利项目具有深远影响，在中国，快速的社会和经济变革会影响人们的幸福感。研究人格特质对生活质量的影响可为有益于中国不同亚人群体的针对性干预措施提供参考。本综述解决了三个主要研究问题：（1）“大五”人格特质在中国不同亚人群体中与生活质量如何相关，中介或调节因素是什么？（2）在中国文化背景下，哪些工具用于评估这些特质和生活质量，以及它们是如何验证的？（3）在中国，哪些理论或学科框架指导了这项研究？遵循系统的PRISMA - ScR框架和定制的“C - BFQLC”方案，该研究识别出170篇相关文献。经过严格筛选，十项研究符合纳入标准，占初始记录的5.03%。本范围综述批判性地审视了在中国快速的社会经济变革和文化多样性背景下，“大五”人格特质与生活质量之间的相互作用。采用由PRISMA - ScR框架和我们独特的“C - BFQLC”方案指导的系统方法，我们精心分析了170篇文献，选择了九篇符合我们严格纳入标准的文献。尽管在中国背景下这个研究领域尚属新兴，但我们的研究揭示了关于个体人格特质如何影响幸福感各个维度的重要见解。这些发现的影响是深远的，不仅超出学术讨论范围，还为中国的医疗政策、组织行为和社会福利项目提供参考。我们的综述不仅全面综合了当前的研究状况，还识别出文献中的关键空白。它强调迫切需要进一步开展具有文化细微差别的研究，以了解中国人格特质和生活质量的复杂动态。这项工作为未来的调查以及旨在提高包括老年人、残疾人及特定职业群体在内的中国不同人群幸福感的针对性干预措施的开发奠定了基础框架。
