Abstract

Introduction: No doubt, evolutionary psychologists are trying to enlighten personality and individual differences by way of various theories. But, essentially and from an evolutionary point of view, a few studies exist regarding personality characters. In the present assessment, relationship between obsessive-compulsive personality traits and achievement of people had been assessed. Method and Material: Four hundreds relatives, who had been elected randomly, have been questioned by means of a self-reply inquiry form as regards the existence of obsessive-compulsive personality traits, in their highest and lowest successful offspring. Data were analyzed by z test for comparison of proportions. Results: Except for ‘stubbornness’, all of traits were meaningfully more prevalent among the highest successful kids, in comparison with the lowest successful children. “Perfectionism’ was the most prevalent character among successful group, tagged along by ‘Rigidity regarding Morality and ethics’, ‘Orderliness and devoting to details’ and ‘Devoting to work and avoiding Leisure’. ‘Obligating others to submit his or her style of behavior’, ‘collecting objects and money’ and ‘parsimoniousness’, were the least prevalent qualities. Conclusion: Obsessive-compulsive traits, at a sensible level, seem to be one of the main interactive dynamics that may help people with regard to achievement of personal and social triumphs.
文化历史发展的行为根源初探:新达尔文主义立场
引言:毫无疑问,进化心理学家正试图通过各种理论来启发人格和个体差异。但是,从本质上和进化的角度来看,很少有关于人格特征的研究。在本评估中,对强迫性人格特征和人的成就之间的关系进行了评估。方法和材料:随机选出的400名亲属,通过自我回复询问表,就其成功率最高和最低的后代是否存在强迫症人格特征进行了询问。通过z检验对数据进行分析,以比较比例。结果:除了“固执”之外,所有这些特征在成功率最高的孩子中都比成功率最低的孩子更普遍。“完美主义”是成功群体中最普遍的特征,其次是“对道德和伦理的严格”、“有序和专注于细节”和“专注于工作和避免休闲”。“强迫他人服从自己的行为风格”、“收集物品和金钱”和“吝啬”是最不普遍的特征sion:在合理的水平上,强迫症似乎是主要的互动动力之一,可能有助于人们取得个人和社会成就。
