Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine the role resilience plays in the relationship between the Big Five personality traits and anxiety and life satisfaction. A total of 470 students from the University of Zagreb in Croatia participated in the study. The results are explained within the framework of McCrae and Costa's (1991) temperament and instrumental model of personality and well-being. A path analysis and a bootstrapping resampling method were performed. Higher levels of extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and emotional stability were associated with higher levels of resilience, which was related to lower levels of anxiety and higher life satisfaction. It can be concluded that resilience is a full mediator between extraversion and conscientiousness on the one hand, and life satisfaction and anxiety on the other. In addition, resilience is a partial mediator between agreeableness and emotional stability, and also between life satisfaction and anxiety. The practical contribution of the study lies in understanding how to better support students’ mental health by targeting the protective factors of different personality traits. Keywords: personality, life satisfaction, anxiety, resilience, early adulthood

复原力在五大人格特质与生活满意度和焦虑之间关系中的作用

本研究旨在探讨抗逆力在大五人格特质与焦虑和生活满意度之间的关系中所起的作用。克罗地亚萨格勒布大学共有 470 名学生参与了研究。研究结果将在 McCrae 和 Costa（1991 年）的人格和幸福感的气质和工具模型框架内进行解释。研究采用了路径分析和引导重采样方法。较高水平的外向性、合意性、自觉性和情绪稳定性与较高水平的复原力相关，而复原力与较低水平的焦虑和较高的生活满意度相关。由此可以得出结论，抗逆力是外向性和自觉性与生活满意度和焦虑之间的完全中介。此外，抗逆力还是合意性和情绪稳定性以及生活满意度和焦虑之间的部分中介因素。本研究的实际贡献在于了解如何通过针对不同人格特质的保护因素来更好地支持学生的心理健康。关键词：人格、生活满意度、焦虑、复原力、成年早期
