Sažetak
Relations between the questionnaire and adjective measures
of the Big-Five personality factors with two higher-order
dimensions of mood, positive and negative, and with their
specific components of joy, activation, acceptance, sadness,
anger, fear and rejection, have been tested on a sample of
332 respondents. Results show that adjective and
questionnaire measures of emotional stability are the best
predictors of negative mood, while the questionnaire
measure of extraversion and adjective measure of openness
are the best predictors of positive mood. Both measures of
emotional stability are also the best predictors of specific
negative moods, while the questionnaire measure of
extraversion is the best predictor of specific positive moods.
The adjective measure of openness is the only significant
predictor of all three positive moods. Results consistently
show that all dimensions of mood can be better predicted by
the adjective measure of personality than by the
questionnaire measure. Also, the Big-Five personality
dimensions, irrespectible of the measures used, can better
predict positive than negative moods. These results are discussed in the context of previous research and some
theoretical issues concerning the nature of the relations
between personality traits and mood.
