Abstract
Personality traits, states, and processes describe how individuals behave consistently across situations and time, and in turn, how individuals select into, shape, and reinforce their social environments. Thus, personality is critical to understanding sleep and social behavior. Research within the Five Factor Model of personality demonstrates that high conscientiousness (self-control, planfulness, and persistence) and low neuroticism (emotional stability and low negative affect) are associated with morning chronotype and better sleep quality. Some reports also find roles for high extraversion (likely due to positive affect) and high agreeableness (likely due to trust and warm interpersonal behavior). Openness has not been reliably related to sleep. Additional research on sleep duration, sleep variability, social jetlag, sleep hygiene, and behaviorally- and objectively-assessed sleep is especially warranted. Disentangling when, how, and why personality and sleep are related across time span and developmental period, and whether personality and sleep are associated using multimethod measures of each, will provide insight into causal models linking personality and consequential outcomes, with important implications for public health efforts and interventions.
