神经质的人格特征是指对威胁、挫折或损失作出消极情绪反应的相对稳定的倾向。人群中的个体在这一特征上差异很大,从频繁和强烈的情绪反应到小挑战,甚至在面对重大困难时也没有情绪反应。尽管没有得到广泛认可,但越来越多的证据表明,神经质是一种具有深远公共卫生意义的心理特征。神经质是许多不同的精神和身体疾病、其中的合并症以及精神和一般卫生服务使用频率的强大相关性和预测因子。事实上,神经质显然是我们生活质量和寿命的一个预测指标。充分了解神经质的本质和起源,以及神经质与精神和身体疾病相关的机制,应该是研究的重中之重。了解为什么神经质会预测如此多种看似不同的结果,应该有助于提高对这些结果之间的共性的理解,并改进预防这些结果的策略。
The personality trait of neuroticism refers to relatively stable tendencies to respond with negative emotions to threat, frustration, or loss. Individuals in the population vary markedly on this trait, ranging from frequent and intense emotional reactions to minor challenges to little emotional reaction even in the face of significant difficulties. Although not widely appreciated, there is growing evidence that neuroticism is a psychological trait of profound public health significance. Neuroticism is a robust correlate and predictor of many different mental and physical disorders, comorbidity among them, and the frequency of mental and general health service use. Indeed, neuroticism apparently is a predictor of the quality and longevity of our lives. Achieving a full understanding of the nature and origins of neuroticism, and the mechanisms through which neuroticism is linked to mental and physical disorders, should be a top priority for research. Knowing why neuroticism predicts such a wide variety of seemingly diverse outcomes should lead to improved understanding of commonalities among those outcomes and improved strategies for preventing them.
