| dc.description.abstract | The present study aimed to investigate relationships of big five
personality traits (openness to experiences, conscientiousness,
extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism) with the hedonistic lifestyle
as well as gender differences in two variables. Participants were students
of the Psychology Department at Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta,
Indonesia. A total of 256 students (165 women and 91 men) were
selected based on the simple random sampling. The Indonesian version of
the Big Five Personality Inventory Scale and the Hedonistic lifestyle
Scale were used in the research. The results indicated that three
dimensions of the big five, namely conscientiousness, extraversion, and
neuroticism, were significantly correlated with the hedonistic lifestyle.
conscientiousness had a greater correlation with the hedonistic lifestyle
compared to the extraversion and neuroticism. However, the other two
dimensions, namely the openness to experience and agreeableness were
not correlated with the hedonistic lifestyle. Meanwhile, female
participants showed significantly higher levels of hedonistic lifestyle,
neuroticism, and agreeableness than men; however, the conscientiousness
was significantly higher in men than women. | id_ID |
