目的：几项研究表明，一致感（SOC）和大五人格特质之间的差异有很大的重叠，但这些重叠结构的独特贡献仍然存在争议。具体来说，SOC和神经质之间的统计关联已被视为SOC代表伪装的基本人格特质的证据。本研究探讨了预测关键心理结果时的增量效度：心理健康，生活满意度和心理困扰。方法：参与者（N = 1842; 1574名女性，268名男性，年龄15-77岁），完成在线调查，回答健康相关问卷（SCL-K-9，SWLS，IRI-PD）。多元回归分析表明，大五可以解释SOC中40%的观察到的方差。然而，当使用所有变量作为心理健康，生活满意度和个人痛苦的预测因子时，SOC表现出实质性的增量效度在大Five traits.Conclusion：尽管重叠的方差，超越五因素模型的salutogenesis的重要性，可以证明特别是健康的结果。SOC的效标效度和增量效度的差异表明，SOC不能等同于反向神经质。(C)2015爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Objective: Several studies have demonstrated a strong overlap in variance between the salutogenic construct Sense of Coherence (SOC) and the Big Five personality traits, yet the unique contributions of these overlapping constructs remain debated. Specifically, the statistical association between SOC and neuroticism has been taken as evidence for SOC representing a fundamental personality trait in disguise. The present research explored the incremental validity when predicting crucial psychological outcomes: mental health, satisfaction with life, and psychological distress.Method: Participants (N = 1842; 1574 female, 268 male, age 15-77 years), who completed an online survey, answered health-relevant questionnaires (SCL-K-9, SWLS, IRI-PD).Results: Multiple regression analysis showed that the Big Five can explain 40% of the observed variance in SOC. However, when using all variables as predictors of mental health, satisfaction with life, and personal distress, SOC showed substantial incremental validity over the Big Five traits.Conclusion: Despite overlapping variance, the importance of salutogenesis beyond the Five Factor Model can be demonstrated specifically for health outcomes. Differences in criterion validity and incremental validity of SOC imply that SOC cannot be equated with reversed neuroticism. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
