The genetic and environmental relationship between major depression and the five-factor model of personality.

Psychological medicine - 1 May 2010

Kendler K S, Myers J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Certain personality traits have long been suspected to reflect an enduring vulnerability to major depression (MD) in part because of shared genetic risk factors. Although many have agreed that normative personality is well captured by the 'Big-Five' personality traits of Openness (O),...
