Life satisfaction is mostly about personality, for most people, most of the time. Even more so, than we thought.
Likely the most comprehensive study yet is now out in the JPSP: doi.org/10.1037/pspp0000501 🧵

Further multi-type, multi-sample evidence that personality traits form a hierarchy all the way down to its individual 'symptoms' (which we call nuances).

The #SIOP2024 (I/O psych) and #WCP2024 audience may be interested in the interactive web app showing personality trait differences among 263 jobs.
(Psychologists are among the most open occupations, btw. And actors are the most neurotic, it turns out.)

My colleagues and I reviewed the other assessments we use for admissions, and these are often more problematic and/or less well-researched than the GRE. There are some suggestions for creating greater standardization to reduce bias. journals.sagepub.com/doi/ful…

If you need more evidence that personality exists...here it is in Reddit theme
An analysis of comments from 9,000 subreddits from 6.3 million users found that people who are toxic in partisan contexts are also toxic in non-partisan contexts
People appear to overgeneralize toxic social norms they learned in partisan contexts academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/a…
