研究参与者（175名男性，230名女性）提出了三个愿望，并完成了人格，乐观，生活满意度和抑郁五因素模型的测量。最常见的愿望是成就、亲密关系、权力以及幸福和金钱。测试显示，女性更倾向于希望改善外貌、幸福和健康;男性更倾向于权力愿望和性愿望。在高度参与许愿过程的参与者中，额外版本与更多的人际愿望和积极影响的愿望有关。神经质与希望情绪稳定有关。可接受性和对经验的开放性与反映这些特征的愿望有关。尽责性与低冲动性有关。抑郁症与做出高度特异性的、具体的愿望有关，这表明一厢情愿是一种应对机制。此外，快乐的参与者更有可能将他们的愿望评为可能实现。结果表明，相对常见的愿望过程与特质，性别和幸福有关。
Study participants (175 men, 230 women) made three wishes and completed measures of the five‐factor model of personality, optimism, life satisfaction, and depression. Common wishes were for achievement, affiliation, intimacy, and power as well as for happiness and money.Ttests showed women were more likely to wish for improved appearance, happiness, and health; men were more likely to make power wishes and wishes for sex. Among participants who were highly involved in the wishing process, Extra‐version was related to making more interpersonal wishes and wishes for positive affect. Neuroticism was related to wishes for emotional stability. Agreeableness and Openness to Experience related to wishes reflective of these traits. Conscientiousness was related to low impulsivity. Depression was related to making highly idiosyncratic, specific wishes, suggesting the use of wishful thinking as a coping mechanism. In addition, happy participants were more likely to rate their wishes as likely to come true. Results indicate that the relatively commonplace process of wishing relates to traits, gender, and well‐being.
