Lower Social Support

The present study examined the relationships among self-report scores for Type A behavior, social support, and stress, and those for physical and psychological well-being among 152 Japanese female college students. Significant interactions were found between scores for Type A behavior and social support, indicating that individuals who report higher Type A behavior as well as higher social support tended to rate their physical and psychological well-being higher than those who reported higher Type A behavior but lower social support.

Satisfaction Analysis

The present study examined job stress and job satisfaction and their relation to measures of neuroticism, Type A behavior, and I–E locus of control as well as sex differences among Kuwaiti men ( n = 189) and women ( n = 210) employees. Women had significantly higher means on scales of job stress, neuroticism, and external locus of control, while men scored significantly higher on job satisfaction. Analysis yielded significant and positive correlations of job stress with neuroticism and locus of control of both men and women. Job satisfaction scores correlated significantly but negatively with external locus of control for both sexes, while job satisfaction had a positive correlation with Type A behavior for women only. The significant correlation between job stress and job satisfaction was negative.

Age Range

The aim of this research was to investigate how the Big Five and Type A personality variables relate to psychological well-being. Additionally, the study examined the effect of age on psychological well-being. Various social media sites such as Facebook were used to recruit 286 Participants (209 males, 74 females) from the community population. The sample was broad with an age range 18-85. Participants completed a demographic measure as well as the Ryff’s Psychological Well-being scale, the International Personality Item Pool- Big Five Scale, the Framingham Type A Behavior Scale and a Social Desirability Scale. Pearson’s product correlations and a hierarchical multiple regression were performed to determine the ability of the personality variables and Type A personality scores to predict psychological well-being. The results indicated that the personality variables (the Big Five) predicted psychological well-being but that the addition of variance from the Type A personality variable added insignificantly to the prediction. Psychological well-being was negatively correlated with age. Further studies on personality and psychological wellbeing are needed, including the role of mindfulness in contributing along with personality variables to psychological well-being.
