Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between personality traits and moral identity of college students and the moderating effect of legal consciousness on it. The Legal Consciousness Scale, Moral Identity Scale and Big Five Personality Inventory were surveyed among 1878 college students. The results of the study showed that: 1) Moral identity and legal consciousness were significantly positively correlated with conscientiousness, agreeableness, openness, and extroversion, while significantly negatively correlated with neuroticism. 2) Personality traits, moral identity, and legal consciousness showed significant gender differences. Also, there was a significant gender difference in the influence of conscientiousness on moral identity. 3) Legal consciousness negatively moderated the influence of conscientiousness and agreeableness on college students’ moral identities. Therefore, our findings imply that the individuality of personality traits should be respected; and, professional cultivation of law education and legal consciousness should be implemented in tertiary education to improve an individual’s moral identity.

Key words: legal consciousness, big five personality, moral identity, moderation effect

摘要:

为探讨大学生人格特质与道德认同的关系,及其法律意识在二者关系之间的调节作用,采用法律意识量表、道德认同量表和大五人格量表对1878名大学生进行了调查。结果显示:(1) 尽责性、宜人性、开放性和外向性与道德认同、法律意识呈显著的正相关;神经质与道德认同、法律意识呈显著的负相关。(2) 人格特质、道德认同、法律意识表现出了显著的性别差异,同时尽责性对道德认同的影响也存在着显著的性别差异。(3) 法律意识在尽责性与宜人性对大学生道德认同的影响中起着负向调节作用。本研究结果提示,应该尊重人格特质的个体特异性,在高校进行专业的法制教育和法律意识培养,提高个体的道德认同水平。
