Penggemblengan watak dan perwatakan dalam penghasilan sesebuah novel merupakan elemen penting untuk memastikan penceritaan novel diterima oleh pembaca. Kajian ini bertujuan mengenal pasti kewujudan karekteristik emosional melalui kecenderungan neurotisme dalam pembentukan personaliti watak karya kreatif. Masalah pembinaan watak dan perwatakan sering wujud dalam karya sastera disebabkan penciptaan tidak dekat dengan kehidupan sebenar manusia. Karekteristik emosional dalam kecenderungan neurotisme berkaitan dengan emosi manusia dalam penulisan dan penyampaian. Oleh itu, novel Andai Itu Takdirnya (2008) karya Siti Rosmizah Ismail yang mendapat penilaian tinggi di laman web Goodreads.com dan menjadi fenomena dalam kalangan pembaca novel di Malaysia telah dipilih untuk dijadikan bahan kajian. Dalam menjalankan kajian ini, pertama sekali watak utama dalam novel ini dikenal pasti melalui naratif penceritaan. Kemudian, setiap watak utama dikelaskan berdasarkan kecenderungan emosional dalam karekteristik neurotisme melalui cirinya. Seterusnya, data dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis kandungan bersama dengan Teori Big Five Personality oleh McCrae dan Costa (1997) dan Model Lima Bahagian oleh Padesky (1986) yang digabungkan bersama untuk penyesuaian watak dan perwatakan. Berdasarkan analisis watak dalam novel yang dilakukan, pembentukan personaliti watak, dipengaruhi oleh ciri-ciri yang terdapat dalam model lima bahagian, iaitu yang terdiri daripada persekitaran, pemikiran, rasa hati, tingkah laku dan tindak balas perlu diterapkan dalam watak ciptaan pengarang. Hasil kajian ini dapat memberikan panduan kepada pengarang untuk membina personaliti watak dalam menghasilkan sebuah karya kreatif yang bernilai tinggi bagi memberikan kesan positif kepada pembaca.

The Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI; Gosling, Rentfrow, & Swann, 2003 ) is a widely used very brief measure of the Big Five personality dimensions. Oshio, Abe, and Cutrone (2012) have developed a Japanese version of the TIPI (TIPI-J), which demonstrated acceptable levels of reliability and validity. Until now, all studies examining the validity of the TIPI-J have been conducted in the Japanese language; this reliance on a single language raises concerns about the instrument’s content validity because the instrument could demonstrate reliability (e.g., retest) and some forms of validity (e.g., convergent) but still not capture the full range of the dimensions as originally conceptualized in English. Therefore, to test the content validity of the Japanese TIPI with respect to the original Big Five formulation, we examine the convergence between scores on the TIPI-J and scores on the English-language Big Five Inventory (i.e., the BFI-E), an instrument specifically designed to optimize Big Five content coverage. Two-hundred and twenty-eight Japanese undergraduate students, who were all learning English, completed the two instruments. The results of correlation analyses and structural equation modeling demonstrate the theorized congruence between the TIPI-J and the BFI-E, supporting the content validity of the TIPI-J.

Abstract. This replication and extension of DeYoung, Quilty, Peterson, and Gray’s (2014) study aimed to assess the unique variance of each of the 10 aspects of the Big Five personality traits ( DeYoung, Quilty, & Peterson, 2007 ) associated with intelligence and its dimensions. Personality aspects and intelligence were assessed in a sample of French-Canadian adults from real-life assessment settings ( n = 213). Results showed that the Intellect aspect was independently associated with g, verbal, and nonverbal intelligence while its counterpart Openness was independently related to verbal intelligence only, thus replicating the results of the original study. Independent associations were also found between Withdrawal, Industriousness and Assertiveness aspects and verbal intelligence, as well as between Withdrawal and Politeness aspects and nonverbal intelligence. Possible explanations for these associations are discussed.

Abstract. Varimax rotated principal component scores (VRPCS) have previously been offered as a possible solution to the non-orthogonality of scores for the Big Five factors. However, few researchers have examined the reliability and validity of VRPCS. To address this gap, we use a lab study and a field study to investigate whether using VRPCS increase orthogonality, reliability, and criterion-related validity. Compared to the traditional unit-weighting scoring method, the use of VRPCS enhanced the reliability and discriminant validity of the Big Five factors, although there was little improvement in criterion-related validity. Results are discussed in terms of the benefit of using VRPCS instead of traditional unit-weighted sum scores.

Abstract. Research suggests that sharing positive events with others is beneficial for well-being, yet little is known about how positive events are shared with others and who is most likely to share their positive events. The current study expanded on previous research by investigating how positive events are shared and individual differences in how people share these events. Participants (N = 251) reported on their likelihood to share positive events in three ways: capitalizing (sharing with close others), bragging (sharing with someone who may become jealous or upset), and mass-sharing (sharing with many people at once using communication technology) across a range of positive scenarios. Using cluster analysis, five meaningful profiles of sharing patterns emerged. These profiles were associated with gender, Big Five personality traits, narcissism, and empathy. Individuals who tended to brag when they shared their positive events were more likely to be men, reported less agreeableness, less conscientiousness, and less empathy, whereas those who tended to brag and mass-share reported the highest levels of narcissism. These results have important theoretical and practical implications for the growing body of research on sharing positive events.

Abstract. In recent years, both professional and volunteer clowns have become familiar in health settings. The clown represents a peculiar humorist’s character, strictly associated with the performer’s own personality. In this study, the Big Five personality traits (BFI) of 155 Italian clown doctors (130 volunteers and 25 professionals) were compared to published data for the normal population. This study highlighted specific differences between clown doctors and the general population: Clown doctors showed higher agreeableness, conscientiousness, openness, and extraversion, as well as lower neuroticism compared to other people. Moreover, specific differences emerged comparing volunteers and professionals: Professional clowns showed significantly lower in agreeableness compared to their unpaid colleagues. The results are also discussed with reference to previous studies conducted on groups of humorists. Clowns’ personalities showed some peculiarities that can help to explain the facility for their performances in the health setting and that are different than those of other groups of humorists.
