Do Personality Traits Predict Mobility Outcomes among Community-Dwelling Older Adults in Nigeria?
Abstract Objectives: To describe the association between personality factors and mobility outcomes among community-dwelling older adults in Nigeria. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 136 older adults [mean age (SD) = 65.1 (5.4)]. The Five-Factor Model of personality was evaluated using the International Personality Item Pool. Participants’ mobility was assessed using gait speed, life-space questionnaire, chair-stand and standing-balance tests. Data was analyzed using multiple linear regression. Results: Extraversion (β = 0.152, p = 0.049), conscientiousness (β = 0.238, p = 0.006), and neuroticism (β = −0.194, p = 0.016) were associated with lower extremity strength. Extraversion (β = 0.201, p = 0.021) and neuroticism (β = −0.201, p = 0.020) were associated with community mobility. No personality factor was a predictor of gait speed or balance. Conclusion: These findings may help clinicians understand the predictive power of personality and guide the development and refinement of personality-tailored interventions to improve older adults’ mobility.
期刊介绍：
This comprehensive journal is recognized for its useful balance of research and clinical practice articles. For more than twenty five years Physical & Occupational Therapy in Geriatrics has functioned as a forum for allied health professionals as well as others with a focus on rehabilitation of the geriatric client to share information, clinical experience, research, and therapeutic practice. Each issue focuses on current practice and emerging issues in the care of the older client, including rehabilitation and long-term care in institutional and community settings, and innovative programming; the entire range of problems experienced by the elderly; and the current skills needed for working with older clients.
