已经发现了大量的证据证明人格特质和健康之间的联系。然而，人格与健康之间的关系是否在不同的生命阶段表现出不同的模式仍然是未知的。目前的研究探讨了大五人格特质的水平和变化与不同类型的健康结果（自我评价，身体和生理健康结果）之间的关联如何在整个生命周期（样本1，年龄范围：15-100）和衰老过程（样本2，年龄范围：50-109）中的年龄差异。利用两项大型纵向研究的数据-澳大利亚家庭，收入和劳动力动态调查和健康与退休研究，我们观察到三个重要的模式。首先，人格特质的水平和变化与不同生命阶段的健康状况显著相关，即使在很老的时候也能观察到这些影响。第二，总体而言，人格特质/人格特质变化与健康结果之间的预期关系在成年中期和/或成年后期的早期阶段增强;然而，它们之间的联系在很老的时候减弱了。最后，在人格与健康之间的年龄差异关联中存在一些特质特异性和健康结果特异性模式。从本研究的结果有助于提高我们的人格健康的联系，从发展的角度来看，并提供关键信息的设计和实施的筛选和干预措施，以促进健康。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2024阿帕，保留所有权利）
Extensive evidence has been found for the associations between personality traits and health. However, it remains unknown whether the relationships between personality and health show differential patterns across different life stages. The current research examined how the associations between the levels of and changes in the Big Five personality traits and different types of health outcomes (self-rated, physical, and physiological health outcomes) differ across ages over the life span (Sample 1, age range: 15–100) and during the aging process (Sample 2, age range: 50–109) in particular. Using data from the two large longitudinal studies—the Household, Income, and Labor Dynamics in Australia Survey and the Health and Retirement Study, we observed three important patterns. First, levels of and changes in personality traits were significantly associated with health across different life phases, and these effects were observed even in very old ages. Second, overall, the prospective relations between personality traits/changes in personality traits and health outcomes increased in strength in middle adulthood and/or early stages of late adulthood; however, the strength of their connections diminished in very old ages. Finally, there were some trait-specific and health outcome-specific patterns in the age-differential associations between personality and health. Findings from the present study contribute to enhancing our understanding of the personality-health link from a developmental perspective and provide critical information for the design and implementation of screening and interventions targeting health promotion.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)
