ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the correlation between different personality characteristics and self-management attitude such as medication, exercise and diet in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.@*METHODS@#The patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from 4 Community Healthcare Services and 22 affiliated community stations of Tongzhou District and Shunyi District of Beijing were selected as subjects. The Chinese big five personality inventory and the self-designed scale including the attitudes of medication, exercise and diet were used in the study.@*RESULTS@#In this study, 642 subjects were finally included, among whom the sex ratio of male and female was basically the same, 61.21% were over 61 years old. In this study, different genders had differences in neurotic personality (P<0.05), different age groups had differences in agreeableness and openness (P<0.05), different education levels had differences in openness and extraversion (P<0.05), and different income levels had differences in agreeableness, openness and extraversion (P<0.05). The linear correlation analysis of the five-factor moldel of personality traits with medication, exercise and diet attitude showed that three items of perceived disorders of medication were positively correlated with neuroticism (r=0.125, 0.187, 0.151, P<0.05), four items of perceived disorders of exercise were positively correlated with neurotic personality (r=0.163, 0.129, 0.119, 0.104, P<0.05), and perceived benefits of exercise were positively correlated with conscientiousness (five items, r=0.156, 0.111, 0.131, 0.104, 0.131, P<0.05), agreeableness (two items, r=0.092, 0.078, P<0.05) and extraversion (four items, r=0.079, 0.122, 0.115, 0.123, P<0.05), three items of perceived disorders of diet were positively correlated with neuroticism (r=0.115, 0.137, 0.108, P<0.05), and two items of were negatively correlated with conscientiousness (r=－0.126, －0.161, P<0.05) and agreeableness (r=－0.103, －0.115, P<0.05). In the canonical correlation analysis, according to the formula combination of three groups of typical variables and canonical structure diagrams, neuroticism and agreeableness played major roles in personality traits, and items that represented "obstacles" in medication, exercise, and dietary attitudes played a major role.@*CONCLUSION@#All the five personality traits were correlated with the self-management attitude of type 2 diabetes patients, and different personality traits have an impact on the self-management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In particular, it is of great significance to understand neuroticism for improving the mental health and quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Therefore, attention should be paid to the influence of psychological factors in community management of type 2 diabetes and disease self-management, and the personalized care and health education should be carried out according to the personality traits of patients.

Este artigo objetivou estudar as relações entre interesses profissionais, medidos pela Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional (EAP) e os traços de personalidade, medidos pela Bateria Fatorial de Personalidade. Participaram 298 estudantes das três séries do ensino médio, sendo 56,7 por cento mulheres, com idade média de 16,16 anos. Verificou-se, de modo geral, que as associações entre interesses e personalidade foram baixas e, em muitos casos, não significativas. Neuroticismo foi o fator menos relacionado às áreas de interesse. Os fatores Extroversão e Abertura permitiram interpretações mais amplas, uma vez que se correlacionaram significativamente com muitas dimensões da EAP. Por fim, os fatores Socialização e Realização relacionaram-se significativamente com áreas de interesse mais específicas. Os dados são discutidos quanto às possíveis interpretações geradas pela análise conjunta desses construtos, especialmente considerando as aplicações para psicólogos que atuam em Orientação Profissional com jovens.
This paper aimed at analyzing relationships between interests, measured by Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional and personality traits, assessed by Bateria Fatorial de Personalidade. 298 students from the three grades of high school took part on this study, 56,7 percent were women and mean age was 16,6. In general, there were correlations of small magnitude, and many of them were non-significant. Neuroticism was the factor that was least related to interests. Extroversion and Openness allowed wider interpretations, once they were significantly related to many interest areas. Agreeableness and Conscientiousness related to more specific interest areas. Data are discusses in terms of possible interpretations guided by the conjoint analysis of these constructs, especially considering psychologists who work with adolescents in Vocational Guidance.

Fue encontrado, en general, que las asociaciones entre los intereses y la personalidad fueron bajas y, en muchos casos, no significativas. El factor Neuroticismo fue el menos relacionado con las áreas de interés.

Objective: To explore Five-Factor Model personality traits of OCD patients who also diagnosed with personality disorders. Methods:SCID-I/P was administrated to diagnose OCD patients. PDQ+4 and PDI-IV were then administrated to 44 OCD subjects to determine whether they also suffered from personality disorders. FFM (five factor model of personality) of the subjects were measured with NEO-PI-R.Results: 32 of 44 (72%) OCD patients also met DSM-IV-TR criteria for personality disorder. Subjects with PDs demonstrated high Neuroticism (67.9?7.7), low Extraversion (39.0?10.2), low Agreeableness (42.6?7.7), low Conscientiousness (39.3?12.4), and normal Openness to Experience (45.9?8.8). Subjects without PDs, however, scored normally except for low Openness to Experiences (38.3?13.4).Conclusion: Deviant FFM characters of OCD patients with PDs suggesting that they often experience neglect emotion, introversion, and interpersonal confliction. Low openness to experiences of subjects without PDs indicates that they lack of curiosity, have relatively narrow interest and conservative ideas.
