Temperament and Later Personality

Captions available

The idea

Personality traits link back to infant temperament: sociability in infancy predicts later extraversion, and early persistence predicts conscientiousness in the Five Factor Model.

In practice

A persistent baby who keeps trying to stack blocks growing into a hardworking, ambitious student.

Where people slip

The Five Factor Model, also called the Big Five, names openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism; unit six covers it fully.
