Abstract

The aim of this study was two-fold: (a) to explore personality profiles among honors undergraduate students and regular undergraduate students, and (b) to investigate the extent to which these profiles are associated with students’ well-being and coping strategies for stress. Using latent class analysis (LCA) on the Big Five personality traits of a total of 532 undergraduate students (229 honors students), we identified three distinct profiles: Overcontrollers, Averages, and Resilients. Honors students were underrepresented in the Averages profile. No significant disproportionality was observed in the other two profiles. Resilients had the highest well-being scores and showed a greater tendency to engage in proactive problem-solving when faced with stress. In contrast, Overcontrollers leaned toward using accountability and self-critique as their primary coping strategy. Findings are discussed in the context of replicable personality prototypes and in relationship to prior research involving honors and academically advanced students.

荣誉生和普通本科生的人格特征:与幸福感和压力应对策略的关系
本研究有两个目的:(a)探索荣誉本科生和普通本科生的人格特质;(b)研究这些人格特质与学生的幸福感和压力应对策略的关联程度。通过对 532 名本科生(229 名优等生)的五大人格特质进行潜类分析(LCA),我们发现了三种不同的人格特质:他们分别是:过度控制者(Overcontrollers)、平庸者(Averages)和复原者(Resilients)。优等生在 "平均数 "特征中的比例偏低。在其他两个特征中没有观察到明显的比例失调。恢复能力强的学生幸福感得分最高,在面对压力时更倾向于积极主动地解决问题。相比之下,过度控制者倾向于将问责和自我批评作为主要的应对策略。研究结果将在可复制人格原型的背景下进行讨论,并与之前涉及优等生和学业先进学生的研究相联系。
