先前的研究表明，在20世纪20年代由Terman首次研究的聪明儿童的档案前瞻性队列研究中，儿童时期的忠诚度（社会可靠性）预测了长寿（HS Friedman et al.，1993年）。现在，通过收集死亡原因信息，并考虑饮酒、吸烟和暴饮暴食的可能中介影响，研究了这种强烈关联的可能行为机制。生存分析（N= 1，215）表明，谨慎的保护作用主要不是由于避免事故，并且不能主要解释为不健康物质摄入的禁欲。尽责性可能对与健康有关的活动产生更广泛的影响。
Previous research showed that conscientiousness (social dependability) in childhood predicted longevity in an archival prospective cohort study of bright children first studied by Terman in the 1920s (HS Friedman et al., 1993). Possible behavioral mechanisms for this robust association are now examined by gathering cause of death information and by considering the possible mediating influences of drinking alcohol, smoking, and overeating. Survival analyses (N= 1,215) suggest that the protective effect of conscientiousness is not primarily due to accident avoidance and cannot be mostly explained by abstinence from unhealthy substance intake. Conscientiousness may have more wide-ranging effects on health-relevant activities.
