Abstract

Abstract: Allport’s distinction of personality devaluated (personality) and personality evaluated (character) raised the question of whether the character is redundant with personality, which still remains open today. The present study hence compares the Five-Factor Model of personality and the VIA-classification (Values in Action) of character strengths across two methods (self- and peer-reports) and two levels of abstraction (domains/factors and scales/facets). A sample of 152 participants and 152 peer-raters completed the NEO-Personality Inventory-Revised and the VIA Inventory of Strengths (VIA-IS). Personality and character assessed with these inventories were found to strongly overlap, yet the different operationalizations were rarely redundant (except for three personality facets). Multitrait-multimethod analyses mostly supported the convergent and discriminant validity of personality and character. Interpersonal strengths (e.g., teamwork) and abstract character factors lacked discriminant validity to personality facets. The present investigation contributes to a better understanding of the interplay between personality and character and provides an impetus for future research on the “virtue gap” between devaluated and evaluated personality traits.

摘要:奥尔波特对人格贬低(人格)和人格评价(人格)的区分提出了人格是否与人格冗余的问题,这一问题至今仍悬而未决。因此,本研究通过两种方法(自我报告和同伴报告)和两个抽象层次(领域/因素和尺度/方面)比较了人格的五因素模型和性格强度的VIA分类(行动价值观)。152名参与者和152名同伴完成了NEO人格问卷修订版和VIA优势问卷(VIA-IS)。用这些清单评估的个性和性格被发现有很大的重叠,但不同的操作很少是多余的(除了三个个性方面)。多特征多方法分析大多支持人格和性格的收敛有效性和判别有效性。人际优势(如团队合作)和抽象性格因素缺乏对个性方面的判别有效性。本研究有助于更好地理解人格和性格之间的相互作用,并为未来研究贬值人格特征和评估人格特征之间的“美德差距”提供了动力。

期刊介绍: Researchers, teachers, and students interested in all areas of individual differences (e.g., gender, temperament, personality, intelligence) and their assessment in human and animal research will find the Journal of Individual Differences useful. The Journal of Individual Differences publishes manuscripts dealing with individual differences in behavior, emotion, cognition, and their developmental aspects. This includes human as well as animal research. The Journal of Individual Differences is conceptualized to bring together researchers working in different areas ranging from, for example, molecular genetics to theories of complex behavior.
