Relationships between Ability and Personality: Three Hypotheses Tested.

Austin, Elizabeth J.; Gibson, Gavin J.; Deary, Ian J.

Intelligence, v25 n1 p49-70 1997

The interrelationship between personality and intelligence was investigated in several studies using data from a survey of 210 Scottish farmers. Evidence was found for increased differentiation of neuroticism and openness at higher levels of ability. There was no support for the hypothesis that intelligence affects the correlation between extraversion and conscientiousness. (SLD)
