Abstract

Based on the theoretical analysis, with first-hand data collection and using multiple regression models, this study explored the relationship between personality trait, stressor and stress response. We draw on the following conclusions: (1) Four stressors (work, health, family and social) as well as two personal traits (openness and neuroticism) are predictors of total stress response, wherein neuroticism is a positive predictor while openness a negative predictor; (2) Four stressors (work, health, family and social) and two personal traits (openness and neuroticism) are predictors of physiological stress response, wherein neuroticism is a positive predictor while openness a negative predictor; (3) Four stressors (work, health, family and social) and three personal traits (neuroticism, openness and agreeableness) are predictors of psychological stress response, wherein neuroticism is a positive predictor while openness and agreeableness are negative predictors; (4)Three stressors (health, family and social) and the three personal traits (conscientiousness, neuroticism and openness) are predictors of behavioral stress response, wherein neuroticism is a positive predictor while conscientiousness and openness are negative predictors.
