基于美国东南部一所大学的532名本科生的样本，研究人员考察了大五人格特质和狭隘人格特质与大学经历特定领域的满意度(大学满意度)和一般生活满意度的关系。五大特质中的四个--随和、认真、情绪稳定和外向--以及攻击性、职业决断性、乐观主义、自我导向学习、认同感和工作动力等狭义特质与这两个满意度指标都呈显著正相关。层次回归分析结果表明，五大特质对生活满意度变异的解释为45%，认同感贡献了7%，大学满意度贡献了6%。有人认为，学生在大学里会成为什么样的人，他们对大学生活的不同方面的满意度可能主要取决于他们进入大学时是谁。在人格特征和学习表现、工作表现以及成人职业和生活满意度方面的研究结果也有相似之处。讨论了奇克林和赖瑟的主要载体对大学发展的影响，以及对招生决定和在咨询、定向、咨询和职业规划等方面增强学生环境适应性的影响。
Based on a sample of 532 undergraduates at a Southeastern U.S. university, Big Five and narrow personality traits were examined in relation to a measure of satisfaction with specific domains of college experience (College Satisfaction) and a measure of General Life Satisfaction. Four of the Big Five traits—Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Emotional Stability and Extraversion—as well as the narrow traits of Aggression, Career Decidedness, Optimism, Self-Directed Learning, Sense of Identity, and Work Drive were positively, significantly related to both satisfaction measures. Results of hierarchical regression analyses showed that the Big Five traits accounted for 45% of Life Satisfaction variance with Sense of Identity contributing an additional 7%, and College Satisfaction, 6%. It was suggested that who students become in college and how satisfied they are with different aspects of collegiate experience may be primarily determined by who they are when they enter college. Similarities were noted to findings of personality traits and academic performance, job performance, and adult career and life satisfaction. Implications were discussed in terms of Chickering and Reisser’s major vectors for college development as well as for admissions decisions and enhancing student-environment fit in advising, orientation, counseling, and career planning, among others.
