作者研究了五大人格特征与学术成果，特别是SAT分数和平均成绩（GPA）之间的关系。开放性是SAT口头评分的最强预测指标，并且尽职尽责，是高中和大学GPA的最强预测指标。这些关系在4个独立样本和4个不同的个性清单中复制。进一步的分析表明，即使在控制了高中GPA和SAT分数之后，认真的人也预测了大学GPA，并且同时和纵向通过学术努力和更高的感知学术能力来同时和纵向介导了良心与大学GPA之间的关系。开放性与SAT言语分数之间的关系独立于学术成就，并通过感知的言语情报同时和纵向进行了调节。这些发现共同表明，即使在控制了这些结果的传统预测指标之后，人格特征也对学术成果产生独立和增量影响。
The authors examined relations between the Big Five personality traits and academic outcomes, specifically SAT scores and grade-point average (GPA). Openness was the strongest predictor of SAT verbal scores, and Conscientiousness was the strongest predictor of both high school and college GPA. These relations replicated across 4 independent samples and across 4 different personality inventories. Further analyses showed that Conscientiousness predicted college GPA, even after controlling for high school GPA and SAT scores, and that the relation between Conscientiousness and college GPA was mediated, both concurrently and longitudinally, by increased academic effort and higher levels of perceived academic ability. The relation between Openness and SAT verbal scores was independent of academic achievement and was mediated, both concurrently and longitudinally, by perceived verbal intelligence. Together, these findings show that personality traits have independent and incremental effects on academic outcomes, even after controlling for traditional predictors of those outcomes.
