Research has linked the presence of particular personality traits with emotional distress and resulting psychological and physical health consequences. Specifically, within the context of the empirically-supported personality trait taxonomy known as, five-factor model, the trait of low emotional stability (or neuroticism) has been associated with negative affect. Additionally, the traits of conscientiousness and extraversion have each been associated with reduction in negative affect. This suggests that personality vulnerabilities may lead to emotional distress, and personality strengths may serve as a buffering factor. However, one way that the likelihood of psychological outcomes may be either increased or decreased regardless of the presence of personality trait vulnerabilities (or strengths), may be dependent on the presence of specific coping strategies in an individual's repertoire. Social problem solving is a particular cognitive behavioral coping process by which an individual identifies effective solutions to everyday problems. Because of the extant evidence base for problem-solving coping as an important coping factor with regard to the link between stress and depression, it has been suggested that problem solving coping may represent one important set of coping responses that may also impact the link between personality traits and emotional distress. In the present study, personality, social problem solving, and emotional distress were investigated in 200 undergraduate college students. It was hypothesized that social problem solving would serve as a mediator of the relationship between personality and negative affect. Personality and social problem solving variables associated with distress were evaluated, including the traits of Neuroticism, Conscientiousness, and Extraversion, and the social problem solving dimensions of negative problem orientation and rational problem solving. A secondary hypothesis predicted a difference in the mediational role of social problem solving as a function of dispositional versus situational affect. The sample consisted of both males and females, ages 18-25, of various ethnicities. Participants completed a series of four questionnaires: NEO Personality Inventory-Revised, Social Problem Solving Inventory-Revised (short-version), and two different versions of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule. Bivariate analyses, individual regression analyses, and Sobel tests were performed to test the predicted mediational impact of problem-solving regarding the relationship between personality traits and negative affect. Negative problem orientation was found to be a significant partial mediator of the relationship between Neuroticism and negative affect, as well as the relationship between Conscientiousness and negative affect. This indicates that in addition to the direct effect of the personality traits on distress, there was also an indirect effect of the traits on negative problem orientation. No difference in the mediational impact of social problem solving for state versus trait affect was found. All other proposed mediational relationships were insignificant. These findings identify negative problem orientation as a clinical target to attenuate distress in individuals with personality vulnerabilities.

"This updated and expanded second edition of this influential book has no competition. There is no competition because there are no other books like it on the market and also because of the breadth and importance of the topics that are covered by leading-edge researchers in the field....Would be an excellent centerpiece for graduate courses in personality psychology. It provides state-of-the-art reviews of theories, statistical methods, assessment methods, and research findings. The topics and the quality of the writing should make the book highly appealing to students in both personality and abnormal psychology."--PsycCRITIQUES This long-awaited, completely new update to a classic text offers a state-of-the-art overview of a rapidly growing field that seeks to integrate the study of normal and abnormal personality. Written by some of the most influential personologists of the 21st century, including Aaron Beck, C. Robert Cloninger, Robert McCrae, and Theodore Millon, chapters show how current theories, statistical methods, and assessment instruments can be used to understand the entire spectrum of personality functioning, from normal to disordered. With graduate students and professionals new to the field in mind, this book provides information about the central issues that are being addressed by researchers and clinicians in the realm of normal-abnormal personality today. In addition, it provides essential terminology, ideas, and methods that are unique to the field at large as well as basic tools needed to become a participant in normal-abnormal psychology. Divided into three parts, the book presents an overview of major theories, statistical methods, and measurement instruments, including: Seven influential models of personality and psychopathology Four statistical methods for use in taxonomy, diagnosis, similarities and differences between normal and abnormal personality, and genetic and environmental influences Problems and pitfalls in designing empirical studies in the realm of normal-abnormal personality Empirically-based introductions and reviews of five widely-used instruments for assessing normal-abnormal personality

The assessment of individual differences has generated shockwaves affecting sociology, education, and a number of other behavioral sciences as well as the fields of management and organizational behavior. In covering the assessment of individual differences, this book pays tribute to the interests and activities that Douglas N. Jackson has incorporated into his career as a psychologist. He continues to be a leader in putting academic findings to practical use. He has also inspired generations of students with his mastery of complex concepts and as a personal example of the ability to balance several simultaneous areas of research. Consistent with the focus of Jackson's research, the theme of this book will be how the use of deductive, construct-driven strategies in the assessment of individual differences leads to benefits in terms of the applicability of the assessment instruments and the clarity of the conclusions that can be drawn from the research.
