ABSTRACT

Some research has investigated the big five personality dimensions among gifted individuals, but these individual studies have provided inconclusive results. The current meta-analysis examined the nature of the relationship between the big five dimensions and giftedness among individuals. Hedge’s unbiased g was used as the effect size metric, and a 3-level multilevel meta-analytic approach was applied, due to the dependency among the effect sizes obtained from the same study. The analyses used 82 effect sizes, from 13 published studies, and indicated that there was a significant difference between gifted and non-gifted participants in terms of Openness to Experience in favor of gifted individuals (g = .473, p = . 005, 95% CI [.199, .747]). However, there were no significant differences in terms of extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and neuroticism. The implications and limitations of the findings are discussed.

摘要

一些研究调查了有天赋的人的五个人格维度，但这些个人研究提供了不确定的结果。目前的荟萃分析检验了五个大维度与个人天赋之间关系的性质。Hedge 的无偏g被用作效果大小度量，并且应用了 3 级多级元分析方法，因为从同一研究中获得的效果大小之间存在依赖性。该分析使用了来自 13 项已发表研究的 82 种效应大小，并表明有天赋和非天赋参与者在经验开放性方面存在显着差异，有利于天赋个体 ( g = .473, p=。005, 95% 置信区间 [.199, .747])。然而，在外向性、宜人性、责任心和神经质方面没有显着差异。讨论了研究结果的含义和局限性。
