摘要
几千年来,体验生活中的成功一直是人类的主要追求。尽管人们对这一主题有着广泛的兴趣,但对于人生成功的各个领域却没有共识的分类。作为回应,我们将人生成功概念化并定义为一个多维结构域,然后我们验证了14个人生成功类别的临时理性分类。随后,我们使用这一分类定量回顾和综合元分析,报告五大人格特质与生活成功相关变量的关系。总的来说,我们确定了111个元分析,报告了与206个变量的关系,代表了来自k > 3,300项研究的N > 225万参与者。首先,我们检查了五大特征预测生活成功变量的程度。接下来,我们使用元分析标准概况分析(Wiernik et al., 2021)区分预测是由于人格提升(概况水平效应)还是其配置(概况模式效应)造成的程度。发现配置是至关重要的,然后我们使用聚类算法来综合变量之间人格配置的相似性,并发现10个集群,这些集群分层嵌套在三个元集群中:满足(满足,平衡,尊重),代理参与(成就,高性能,公民身份,独创性,领导力)和自我超越(支持,包容)。我们认为,这10个人生成功集群代表了原型人生成功目标,而它们相关的人格特征反映了实现这些不同目标的原型手段。总而言之,我们提供了一幅生活成功领域的理论整合图。最后讨论了本研究的启示和未来的研究方向,以及本研究的贡献和局限性。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA,版权所有)。
Mapping domains of life success: Insights from meta-analytic criterion profile analysis.
Experiencing success in life has been a principal human endeavor for millennia. Despite broad interest in the subject, no consensual taxonomy exists for domains of life success. In response, we conceptualize and define life success as a multidimensional construct domain, and we then validate a provisional rational taxonomy of 14 life success categories. We subsequently use this taxonomy to quantitatively review and synthesize meta-analyses reporting relations of the Big Five personality traits to variables associated with life success. Altogether, we identify 111 meta-analyses reporting relations to 206 variables, representing N > 2.25 million participants from k > 3,300 studies. First, we examine the extent to which Big Five traits predict life success variables. Next, we distinguish the extent to which prediction is due to personality's elevation (profile level effects) or its configuration (profile pattern effects) using meta-analytic criterion profile analysis (Wiernik et al., 2021). Finding that configurations are vital, we then use clustering algorithms to synthesize similarities among personality configurations across variables and uncover 10 clusters that are hierarchically nested in three metaclusters: contentment (gratification, balance, deference), agentic engagement (accomplishment, high performance, citizenship, ingenuity, leadership), and self-transcendence (support, inclusion). We suggest that these 10 life success clusters represent archetypal life success goals and their associated personality profiles reflect archetypal means for realizing these diverse ends. In summary, we provide a theoretically integrative map of domains of life success. We conclude by discussing implications and future research directions, as well as contributions and limitations of our findings. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).
期刊介绍:
Psychological Bulletin publishes syntheses of research in scientific psychology. Research syntheses seek to summarize past research by drawing overall conclusions from many separate investigations that address related or identical hypotheses.
A research synthesis typically presents the authors' assessments:
-of the state of knowledge concerning the relations of interest;
-of critical assessments of the strengths and weaknesses in past research;
-of important issues that research has left unresolved, thereby directing future research so it can yield a maximum amount of new information.
