Although many emerging adults struggle to gain status and develop social relationships, particularly during the college transition, it remains unclear whether certain personality traits facilitate this transition. Using a longitudinal design, we investigated whether status-related traits—namely, entitlement, intrasexual competitiveness, and dominance—related to the development of status in 91 first-year college students (Mage=18.15, SD=0.44) transitioning to a novel college environment. We also examined whether personality traits moderated the degree to which status related to loneliness. As hypothesized, only students high in intrasexual competitiveness experienced increases in subjective dorm status across the year. In addition, students exhibiting average or low entitlement experienced decreases in loneliness over time, whereas high entitlement was related to consistently low loneliness. Finally, higher subjective dorm status was related to lower loneliness only for less dominant students, as assessed by both self-ratings of trait dominance and raters’ judgments of facial dominance from photographs. Using a real-world context of status development, these results suggest that personality traits may influence students’ ability to experience higher status and modulate the relation between subjective status and loneliness.
