世界各地的人们都拥有数字媒体设备，这些设备可以调节并接近他们的日常行为和情境。这些设备可以用作传感技术，从传感器和元数据日志中收集信息，从而提供日常个性表达的细粒度记录。在本文中，我们提出了人格感知研究的概念框架和实证例证，利用传感技术进行人格理论的发展和评估。为了进一步了解通过这些数据揭示人格相关信息的程度，我们概述了三个研究领域的议程，重点是人格的描述、解释和预测。为了说明个性感知研究议程的价值，我们提出了一项基于智能手机的大型感知研究 (N = 633) 的研究结果，该研究描述了感知行为模式（身体活动、社交行为和智能手机使用）的个体差异，并将感知行为映射到“大五”维度。例如，研究结果显示了行为倾向和人格特质以及日常行为和人格状态之间的关联。最后，我们讨论了最佳实践，并展望了人格感知将如何改变我们对人格的理解以及我们在未来几年进行评估的方式。 (c) 2020年欧洲人格心理学协会
People around the world own digital media devices that mediate and are in close proximity to their daily behaviours and situational contexts. These devices can be harnessed as sensing technologies to collect information from sensor and metadata logs that provide fine-grained records of everyday personality expression. In this paper, we present a conceptual framework and empirical illustration for personality sensing research, which leverages sensing technologies for personality theory development and assessment. To further empirical knowledge about the degree to which personality-relevant information is revealed via such data, we outline an agenda for three research domains that focus on the description, explanation, and prediction of personality. To illustrate the value of the personality sensing research agenda, we present findings from a large smartphone-based sensing study (N = 633) characterizing individual differences in sensed behavioural patterns (physical activity, social behaviour, and smartphone use) and mapping sensed behaviours to the Big Five dimensions. For example, the findings show associations between behavioural tendencies and personality traits and daily behaviours and personality states. We conclude with a discussion of best practices and provide our outlook on how personality sensing will transform our understanding of personality and the way we conduct assessment in the years to come.
