Numerous studies established personality traits as predictors of career success. However, if and how career success can also trigger changes in personality has not received much attention. Drawing from the neosocioanalytic model of personality and its social investment and corresponsive principles, this paper investigated how the attainment of objective career success contributes to personality change in the Big Five traits of neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. We conducted cross-lagged analyses with three measurement waves over eight years with a representative sample of 4′767 working adults from the German Socio-Economic Panel and examined if objective success (i.e., income and occupational prestige) predicted changes in personality. We also tested if effects differed across age groups or between men and women. Results showed that career success predicted changes in personality for neuroticism, extraversion, and openness. Higher income predicted a decrease in neuroticism and increase in openness. Higher prestige predicted a decrease in extraversion and an increase in openness. Results did not differ according to age group or for men or women. We discuss the results in light of the effects that career success can exert on personality development and the complexity inherent in observing personality change.

成功会改变人吗?检验客观的职业成功,将其作为个性发展的先驱

大量研究确立了人格特质作为职业成功的预测指标。然而,事业成功是否以及如何触发人格改变尚未引起人们的广泛关注。本文从人格的新社会分析模型及其社会投入和相应的原则出发,研究了客观职业成就的实现如何在神经质,性格外向,开放性,乐于助人和尽职尽责的五个大特征中促进人格改变。我们在八年中对三个测量波进行了交叉滞后分析,使用了来自德国社会经济专家小组的4'767名在职成年人的代表性样本,并检验了客观成功(即收入和职业声望)是否预测了人格的变化。我们还测试了不同年龄段或男女之间的影响是否不同。结果表明,职业生涯的成功预示着神经质,外向性和开放性的人格变化。较高的收入预示着神经质的减少和开放性的增加。较高的声望预示着外向性的减少和开放性的增加。结果并未因年龄组或男性或女性而异。我们根据职业成功对人格发展的影响以及观察人格变化固有的复杂性来讨论结果。结果并未因年龄组或男性或女性而异。我们根据职业成功对人格发展的影响以及观察人格变化固有的复杂性来讨论结果。结果并未因年龄组或男性或女性而异。我们根据职业成功对人格发展的影响以及观察人格变化固有的复杂性来讨论结果。
