ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the linear and nonlinear relation of personality to life satisfaction and de-pression in visual artists.Methods:Totally 132 visual artists were recruited,most of them focused on painting, sculpture and photography.The Mini International Personality Item Pool-Five-Factor Model Measure (Mini-IPIP), the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS)and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) were adopted to all subjects.Results:The Mini-IPIP neuroticismscores had positive predictability to CES-D scores (β=0.41),while the scores of agreeableness,conscientiousnessand extraversionhad negative pre-dictability to CES-D scores(β=-0.27,-0.23,-0.19).Only conscientiousnessscores had positive predictabil-ity (β = 0.25 ) to SWLS scores in terms of linear relationship between personality traits and life satisfaction.Meanwhile,both'neuroticism'and conscientiousnessscores had U curve relationship with SWLS scores (β=0.32,0.22)after linear effects were controlled.Conclusion:It suggests that personality traits in visual artists could explain depression symptoms and life satisfaction.However,pattern between personality and life satis-faction may be more complex.
