摘要Sulloway（1996）提出，童年时期发展的人格特质介导了出生顺序与科学激进主义的联系。在三项研究中，研究了五因素人格模型中对特质的三阶效应。在一个全国性样本（N = 9664）中，神经质、外向性和开放性的自我报告与出生顺序无关。在成人样本（N = 612）中，修订的NEO人格量表（NEO-PI-R）的30个方面量表的自我报告显示，利他主义和温柔体贴的影响很小。同伴评级（N = 166）支持的假设，晚出生的孩子会更高的方面的开放性和可接受性，但配偶评级（N = 88）没有复制这些发现。出生顺序可能对感知的个性有微妙的影响，但这种影响不太可能与科学激进主义相关联。
Abstract Sulloway (1996) proposed that personality traits developed in childhood mediate the association of birth order with scientific radicalism. Birth-order effects on traits within the five-factor model of personality were examined in three studies. Self-reports on brief measures of Neuroticism, Extraversion, and Openness in a national sample ( N = 9664) were unrelated to birth order. Self-reports on the 30 facet scales of the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI-R) in an adult sample ( N = 612) showed only small effects for Altruism and Tender-Mindedness. Peer ratings ( N = 166) supported the hypotheses that laterborn children would be higher in facets of Openness and Agreeableness, but spouse ratings ( N = 88) did not replicate those findings. Birth order may have subtle effects on perceived personality, but it is unlikely that this effect mediates associations with scientific radicalism.
