根据连续84天每天报告的活动高峰时间、上升时间和退休时间来评估昼夜节律的个体差异。一份包含19个条目的“早晚性问卷”（MEQ）与这3项昼夜活动测量的时间效应以及父母报告的被试活动高峰时间显著相关。几项外向性的测量也与MEQ，以及起床和退休时间显著相关，这表明外向者是夜猫子。当研究社交性和冲动性的不同影响时，外向性的社交性成分对一天中的时间差异负有最大的责任。这一结果与之前的发现有所不同，之前的发现认为冲动是造成时间效应的因素。这个明显的矛盾在唤醒是一个非统一的结构方面进行了讨论，不同的昼夜节律唤醒指数允许与特定人格成分的差异相关。
Individual differences in circadian activity rhythms were assessed in terms of peak activity time, rising time and retiring time reported every day for 84 consecutive days. A 19-item Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ) significantly correlated with time-of-day effects on these 3 circadian activity measures, as well as with parental report of the subject''s peak activity time. Several measures of extraversion also correlated significantly with the MEQ, as well as with rising and retiring time, suggesting that extraverts are evening types. When the differential effects of sociability and impulsivity were examined the sociability component of extraversion was most responsible for the time-of-day differences. The result diverges somewhat from previous findings that suggest impulsivity is the component responsible for time-of-day effects. This apparent contradiction is discussed in terms of arousal being a non-unitary construct, with different indices of circadian arousal allowing for differential correlates with specific personality components.
