Abstract:

Using the Five-Factor Model (FFM), the HEXACO model of personality, and the Dark Triad (DT) as theoretical frameworks, this study conducted a meta-analysis of 150 domestic and international articles published over the past two decades to investigate the relation between personality traits and aggression among the student population. The results showed that, firstly, FFM-neuroticism and DT traits (Machiavellianism, psychopathy, narcissism) were positively correlated with aggression. Secondly, FFM-agreeableness, honesty-humility, HEXACO-agreeableness, and conscientiousness were negatively correlated with aggression. Thirdly, extraversion, openness, and HEXACO-emotionality were not related to aggression. Finally, age and gender did not moderate the relationship between personality traits and aggression, while culture moderated the relationship between the two personality traits (i.e., FFM-agreeableness and openness) and aggression. These findings provide implications for preventing aggression and violence in school setting.

Key words: Big Five personality traits, Dark Triad, HEXACO, aggression, meta-analysis

摘要:

本研究以大五人格模型(FFM)、HEXACO人格模型以及黑暗三联征(DT)为框架,以学生群体为研究对象,基于国内外近20年来150篇文献的元分析探究人格特质与攻击行为的关系。结果表明:就学生攻击行为而言,FFM-神经质、DT特质(马基雅维利主义、精神病态、自恋)与攻击行为呈正相关:FFM-宜人性、诚实−谦虚、HEXACO-宜人性、责任性与攻击行为呈负相关;外向性、开放性和HEXACO-情绪性与攻击行为不相关。就调节效应而言,年龄与性别均不能调节人格特质和攻击行为的关系;文化仅可以调节FFM-宜人性、开放性和攻击行为的关系。研究结果对预防校园暴力和攻击行为具有重要意义。
