Overall, our findings offer valuable insight into the conceptual (dis)similarity of personality traits & personality functioning, inform joint theoretical frameworks, and may advance treatment of personality disorders by identifying conditions in which changes may be expected or best captured

What'd we find? (continued)

3) Event perceptions & initial personality levels sometimes predicted heterogeneity in event-related changes, but mostly for mean-level effects

Initial personality functioning frequently moderated event-related changes in the Big Five, but the reverse was less common

What'd we find? (continued)

2) Life events were related to personality development, but almost exclusively for personality functioning

We believe this suggests that personality functioning is more susceptible to external influences than most Big Five traits

What'd we find?

1) Unconditional development of all constructs was generally very similar, but there were some interesting trait- & metric-specific differences

We had 3 research questions:

1) How do personality functioning and the Big Five traits unconditionally develop over one year?

2) How does their development change in response to life events?

3) Can we predict individual differences in event-related changes?
