In this study, we adopted the five-factor model, in which personality includes the traits of
extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience (Goldberg, 1993; McCrae & John, 1992).
Extraversion refers to sociability, assertiveness, activity, and positive emotionality (John & Sirvastava, 1999).
It includes six sub-scales: honesty-humility, emotionality,
extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experience.
The results of the multivariate regression analysis revealed
extraversion ([sz] = 0.330) was positively associated with spiritual intelligence.
The five personality traits, Openness to Experience; Conscientiousness;
Extraversion; Agreeableness; and Neuroticism were taken as independent variables.
Extraversion subscale from NEO-FFI consisted of 12 items on 5-point rating scale.
MONDAY, March 12, 2018 (HealthDay News) -- Genetic variations associated with empathy play a role in psychiatric conditions and traits, including schizophrenia, anorexia nervosa, and
extraversion, according to a study published online March 11 in Translational Psychiatry.
The five factors (neuroticism,
extraversion, openness, agreeableness and conscientiousness) of the NEO-five factor model of personality hold potential in this regard.
The five-factor model of personality (FFM), which describes personality in terms of five dimensions (neuroticism,
extraversion, agreeableness, openness to experience, and conscientiousness), is currently the dominant framework for personality.
However, good "socioemotional" or "behavioral skills" like grit, openness,
extraversion, agreeableness, emotional stability, and decision-making skills are equally important.
