Abstract(s)
pesar da importância da capacidade de avaliar a personalidade de outras pessoas nas interações
sociais, esta não foi aprofundada na literatura psicológica anterior. Deste modo, o presente
estudo teve como objetivo investigar as relações psicológicas entre o insight disposicional, a
empatia e os traços de personalidade. Uma amostra de 166 participantes portugueses, com idades
entre 18 e 79 anos, preencheu um questionário composto por instrumentos de autorrelatoe um
teste, a fim de avaliar as variáveis relevantes para o estudo. Os resultados demonstraram existir
uma associação positiva, embora fraca, entre o insight disposicional, empatia cognitiva eo traço
de personalidade de honestidade-humildade. Adicionalmente, foi observada uma correlação
positiva entre o insight disposicional e o género feminino, tal como a população feminina
demonstrando uma correlação moderada com o traço de personalidade da emocionalidade. Estas
relações com o género feminino foram aprofundadas através de testes dediferenças, sustentando
a maioria dos resultados como significativos. Dois modelos de mediaçãoforam propostos para
explicar essas relações. O primeiro testou o efeito mediador da empatia cognitiva na relação
entre honestidade-humildade e insight disposicional, e o segundo adicionouempatia para explicar
a relação entre o género feminino e o traço de emocionalidade. Uma análise de moderação foi
também realizada para explorar o efeito moderador do género na relação entre honestidadehumildade e o insight disposicional. Os resultados sugerem que o insight disposicional pode ser
uma competência socioemocional negligenciada na literatura atual, podendo vir a ser
evidenciada como uma variável importante para vários componentes envolvidos no bem-estar.
Desta forma, deve ser considerado um construto de interesse em várioscontextos e áreas da
psicologia. O presente estudo fornece uma base para pesquisas adicionais neste campo. As
limitações e sugestões para estudos futuros são discutidas.
The present study aimed to investigate the psychological relationships between dispositional insight, empathy, and personality traits. Despite the importance of our ability to assess other people's personalities for our social interactions, it has not been thoroughly studied in previous psychological literature. A sample of 166 Portuguese participants, aged 18-79 years old, completed a self-report questionnaire and a test to assess the relevant variables for the study. The results demonstrated a positive, albeit weak, association between dispositional insight, cognitive empathy, and the personality trait of honesty-humility. Additionally, a positive correlation between dispositional insight and the female gender was observed, with females showing a moderate correlation with the personality trait of emotionality. Additionally, the relationships found regarding the genders were also explored, showing significant differences between the genders. Two mediation models were proposed to explain the relevant relationships further. The first tested the mediating effect of cognitive empathy on the relationship between honesty-humility and dispositional insight, and the second added empathy to explain the relationship between female gender and emotionality trait. Furthermore, a moderation analysis was conducted to explore the moderating effect of gender on the honesty-humility and dispositional insight relationship. The findings suggest that dispositional insight may be an overlooked socioemotional competence in the current literature and may be an important variable for various components involved in well-being. Therefore, it should be considered a construct of interest in various contexts and areas of psychology. Limitations and suggestions for future studies are further discussed. Nonetheless, the present study contributes to our understanding of the psychological relationships between dispositional insight, empathy, and personality traits and provides a basis for further research in this field.
