确定人格特质与环境决定因素相互作用以塑造社会行为的方式仍然是实证研究的重要领域。神经质的特定人格特质与特征性的负面情绪有关,并与对负面的高度关注有关,情绪唤起环境信号。然而,这种人格特质可能塑造社会行为的机制在很大程度上仍不明确。本研究采用眼动追踪技术,探讨情绪面部表情的视觉扫描路径特征与个体个性差异之间的关系。我们发现,花在看恐惧面孔眼睛上的时间与神经质呈正相关。这一发现进行了讨论,与以前的行为研究有关的个性选择性注意特质一致的情感信息,神经影像学研究有关的个性差异杏仁核反应性的社会相关的刺激,和遗传学研究表明血清素转运蛋白基因和神经质之间的联系。我们的结论是,人格可能与人际交往的社会认知的基本方面,如眼神接触的形状。通过这种方式,眼睛凝视代表了基因、大脑功能和人格之间复杂关系中可能存在的行为联系。
Determining the ways in which personality traits interact with contextual determinants to shape social behavior remains an important area of empirical investigation. The specific personality trait of neuroticism has been related to characteristic negative emotionality and associated with heightened attention to negative, emotionally arousing environmental signals. However, the mechanisms by which this personality trait may shape social behavior remain largely unspecified. We employed eye tracking to investigate the relationship between characteristics of visual scanpaths in response to emotional facial expressions and individual differences in personality. We discovered that the amount of time spent looking at the eyes of fearful faces was positively related to neuroticism. This finding is discussed in relation to previous behavioral research relating personality to selective attention for trait-congruent emotional information, neuroimaging studies relating differences in personality to amygdala reactivity to socially relevant stimuli, and genetic studies suggesting linkages between the serotonin transporter gene and neuroticism. We conclude that personality may be related to interpersonal interaction by shaping aspects of social cognition as basic as eye contact. In this way, eye gaze represents a possible behavioral link in a complex relationship between genes, brain function, and personality.
