This study examined daily life processes and their contribution to long-term continuity and change in explicit and implicit representations of Big 5 traits. The TESSERA framework (Wrzus & Roberts, 2017) served as theoretical background to derive predictions on 3 linked research questions (RQ) regarding (a) trait-state associations (RQ1); (b) antecedents and consequences of personality states (RQ2); as well as (c) processes of personality development (RQ3). We assessed Big 5 traits using self-ratings (i.e., BFI-44) and implicit association tests 4 times across 2 years in a sample of 382 younger (Mage = 21.57 years) and older (Mage = 67.76 years) adults. We also assessed momentary processes in multiple waves of daily diaries (total M = 43.9 days) focusing on people's most memorable daily experience. As predicted in RQ1, all self-rated traits, and implicit associations of self with conscientiousness, agreeableness, or emotional stability predicted subsequent trait-relevant situations and states. Regarding RQ2 across all trait domains, momentary processes could be generalized as sequences of Triggering situations, Expectancies, States and State Expressions, and ReActions (i.e., TESSERA sequences). With respect to RQ3, states were associated with long-term changes in self-rated conscientiousness and agreeableness, and self-rated and implicitly measured extraversion. Our findings further support the assumption that momentary experiences in daily life can contribute to long-term Big 5 changes, and extend previous research by examining implicit self-concepts and changes therein. The findings highlight the role of triggering situations, expectancies, reactions, and reflection in personality development in addition to trait-relevant states.

日常生活过程以五种特质的显性和隐性表示来预测长期发展：测试来自TESSERA（触发情况，期望，状态和状态表示以及反应）框架的预测。

这项研究检查了日常生活过程及其对长期连续性的贡献以及大五项特质的显性和隐性表征的变化。TESSERA框架（Wrzus＆Roberts，2017）作为理论背景，得出了关于以下三个关联研究问题（RQ）的预测：（a）特质状态关联（RQ1）; （b）人格状态的前因和后果（RQ2）；以及（c）人格发展过程（RQ3）。我们在382名年龄更小（年龄= 21.57岁）和年龄较大（年龄= 67.76岁）的成年人中，使用自我评估（即BFI-44）和2年内隐式关联测试4次评估了Big 5特质。我们还评估了每天多次日记中的瞬时过程（总计M = 43.9天），重点是人们最难忘的日常经历。正如RQ1预测的那样，所有自评特征 自我与尽责，宜人或情绪稳定的内在联系预示了与特质相关的情况和状态。关于跨所有特征域的RQ2，瞬时过程可以概括为触发情况，期望，状态和状态表达以及反应（即，TESSERA序列）的序列。关于RQ3，状态与自我评价的责任心和好感的长期变化以及自我评价的和隐性测得的外向性相关。我们的发现进一步支持了这样的假设，即日常生活中的瞬时经验可以促进长期的5大变化，并通过检查内隐的自我概念和其中的变化来扩展先前的研究。研究结果突显了触发情况，期望，反应，以及与特质相关的状态中对人格发展的反思。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2020 APA，保留所有权利）。
