This meta-analysis used 9 literature search strategies to examine 137 distinct personality constructs as correlates of subjective well-being (SWB). Personality was found to be equally predictive of life satisfaction, happiness, and positive affect, but significantly less predictive of negative affect. The traits most closely associated with SWB were repressive-defensiveness, trust, emotional stability, locus of control-chance, desire for control, hardiness, positive affectivity, private collective self-esteem, and tension. When personality traits were grouped according to the Big Five factors, Neuroticism was the strongest predictor of life satisfaction, happiness, and negative affect. Positive affect was predicted equally well by Extraversion and Agreeableness. The relative importance of personality for predicting SWB, how personality might influence SWB, and limitations of the present review are discussed.
这项荟萃分析采用了9种文献检索策略，以检验137种不同的人格构念与主观幸福感（SWB）之间的相关性。研究发现，人格对生活满意度、幸福感和积极情绪具有同等的预测力，但对消极情绪的预测力则显著较弱。与主观幸福感最密切相关的特质包括压抑防御性、信任、情绪稳定性、机遇控制点、控制欲、心理韧性、积极情感、内隐集体自尊和紧张感。当根据大五人格因素对人格特质进行分组时，神经质是生活满意度、幸福感和消极情绪的最强预测指标。外向性和宜人性对积极情绪的预测力相当。本文讨论了人格在预测主观幸福感方面的相对重要性、人格可能影响主观幸福感的方式以及本综述的局限性。
