Abstract

This article investigates the links between the Big Five personality traits and self‐efficacy, perceived stress, and life satisfaction during the COVID‐19 pandemic on a large sample of Czech university students and lecturers (N = 11,824). The study's findings indicate that during the pandemic, negative emotionality was strongly associated with both perceived stress and life satisfaction. The study also reveals a positive link between extraversion and perceived stress across the entire sample, and in the student group specifically, extraversion was negatively associated with life satisfaction. This suggests that a high level of extraversion may not act as a protective factor in situations of limited social contact, for example, under the social restriction mandates during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Additionally, self‐efficacy was associated with higher satisfaction with life but also higher perceived stress. This finding contradicts previous research conducted before and during the pandemic and warrants further investigation. Interestingly, the links between personality traits, self‐efficacy, perceived stress, and life satisfaction were not significantly moderated by professional position. Both lecturers and students experienced similar disruptions to their daily routines, social isolation, and financial concerns during the pandemic.
大学生和讲师在 COVID-19 大流行期间感知到的生活压力和满意度:人格特质和自我效能感的作用
本文研究了在 COVID-19 大流行期间,大五人格特质与自我效能感、感知压力和生活满意度之间的联系,研究对象为大量捷克大学生和讲师样本(N = 11,824)。研究结果表明,在大流行病期间,消极情绪与感知压力和生活满意度密切相关。研究还显示,在整个样本中,外向性与感知压力之间存在正相关,而在学生群体中,外向性与生活满意度之间存在负相关。这表明,在社会接触有限的情况下,例如在 COVID-19 大流行期间的社会限制规定下,高水平的外向性可能无法起到保护作用。此外,自我效能感与较高的生活满意度相关,但也与较高的压力感知相关。这一发现与之前在大流行之前和期间进行的研究相矛盾,值得进一步研究。有趣的是,人格特质、自我效能感、感知压力和生活满意度之间的联系并没有受到专业职位的显著调节。在大流行期间,讲师和学生都经历了类似的日常生活中断、社会隔离和经济问题。
