Effects of Robots’ Character and Information Disclosure on Human–Robot Trust and the Mediating Role of Social Presence
The rapid development of artificial intelligence technology allows robots to have social functions. In the case of human individuals interacting directly with a robot with artificial intelligence, if the individual can perceive the same or similar feelings as they have when interacting with a real human, the robot can be considered to have social presence. Trust is an important factor that affects human–robot collaboration. This research explores the influence of the character and information disclosure of robots on trust in human–robot collaboration as well as the mediating role of social presence. This study uses the Columbia Card Task to design a human–robot cooperative experiment platform. During the experiment, robots provide different levels of character (introversion vs. extroversion) and information disclosure (high disclosure vs. low disclosure). The results show that the character of robots has a significant impact on emotional trust: the higher the level of extroversion is, the stronger the level of human emotional trust. Furthermore, the level of information disclosure by robots has a significant impact on cognitive trust: the higher the level of information disclosure is, the stronger the level of cognitive trust. Social presence has a mediating role in the effect of character on emotional trust and the impact of information disclosure on cognitive trust. The research results can provide suggestions for improving the acceptance of social robots in human–robot collaboration and improving the quality and efficiency of collaborative human–robot task decision-making. Research on robots’ character and information disclosure can provide a theoretical basis for related researchers and developers.

What Is Extraversion For? Integrating Trait and Motivational Perspectives and Identifying the Purpose of Extraversion
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the manifestation of extraversion (i.e., acting and being extraverted) in everyday behavior can be explained by intentional (functional) constructs, namely, goals. By using a model in which personality states serve as an outcome of specific, momentary goal pursuit, we were able to identify the function of extraversion states in everyday behavior. Using experience-sampling methodology, we asked participants to describe their state extraversion, goal pursuit, and state affect over 10 days. Results show that 18 selected goals predicted 74% of the variance in state extraversion; both within-person and between-person fluctuations in state extraversion were strongly associated with changes in momentary goal pursuit. We extended findings relating state extraversion and state positive affect, showing that the relationship between goals and positive affect was partially mediated by state extraversion.

On \Feeling Right\ in Cultural Contexts: How Person-Culture Match Affects Self-Esteem and Subjective Well-Being
Whether one is in one's native culture or abroad, one's personality can differ markedly from the personalities of the majority, thus failing to match the \"cultural norm.\" Our studies examined how the interaction of individual-and cultural-level personality affects people's self-esteem and well-being. We propose a persorxulture match hypothesis that predicts that when a person's personality matches the prevalent personalities of other people in a culture, culture functions as an important amplifier of the positive effect of personality on self-esteem and subjective well-being at the individual level. Across two studies, using data from more than 7,000 individuals from 28 societies, multilevel random-coefficient analyses showed that when a relation between a given personality trait and well-being or self-esteem exists at the individual level, the relation is stronger in cultures characterized by high levels of that personality dimension. Results were replicated across extraversion, promotion focus, and locomotive regulatory mode. Our research has practical implications for the well-being of both cultural natives and migrants.

Personality differences and COVID-19: are extroversion and conscientiousness personality traits associated with engagement with containment measures?
Introduction In December 2019, an outbreak of the novel coronavirus, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) probably occurred in Wuhan, China. By March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) had declared a pandemic. Containment measures such as social distancing and hand hygiene were recommended. In this study, we start from the hypothesis that engaging with containment measures in a pandemic situation should be more comfortable for some people than for other people. Thus, individual differences should be associated with engagement with containment measures. Objective To investigate to what extent two personality traits, extroversion and conscientiousness, are associated with engagement with two containment measures (social distancing and handwashing). Methods The sample consisted of 715 Brazilian adults aged 18-78 years, who answered the Big Five Inventory 2 Short (BFI-2-S) and factors from the Dimensional Clinical Personality Inventory 2 (IDCP-2). Results Higher scores for extroversion were associated with lower means for social distancing (p < 0.001) and higher scores for conscientiousness were associated with higher means for social distancing and handwashing (p < 0.05). Conclusion The findings indicate the importance of acknowledging extroversion and conscientiousness traits as relevant to people's engagement with the measures recommended for COVID-19 containment.

Managing strategic change: The duality of CEO personality
Using the five factor model (FFM) of personality, we delineate two distinct roles of CEO personality in managing strategic change: initiating strategic change and determining the performance effects of strategic change implementation. Based on data from 120 smalland medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Ecuador, we found that some FFM traits of CEOs influenced initiation only (extraversion and openness), others similarly influenced initiation and performance effects of implementation (emotional stability and agreeableness), and still others had opposing effects on initiation and effective implementation (conscientiousness). These results point to a dual role of CEO FFM of personality in managing strategic change, and they indicate the differences in CEO FFM traits needed to initiate strategic change and those needed to improve the performance effects of strategic change implementation.

How personality traits of neuroticism and extroversion predict the effects of the COVID-19 on the mental health of Canadians
The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) epidemic was first detected in China in December 2019 and spread to other countries fast. Some studies have found that COVID-19 pandemic has had adverse mental health consequences. Individual differences such as personality could contribute to people’s behaviors during a pandemic. In the current study, we examine how personality traits of neuroticism and extroversion (using the Five-Factor Model as our framework) are related to the mental health of Canadians during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using data from an online survey with 1096 responses, this study performed multiple regression analysis to explore how personality traits of neuroticism and extroversion predict the effects of COVID-19 on the mental health of Canadians. The results showed that personality traits of neuroticism and extroversion are associated with the current mental health of Canadians during COVID-19 pandemic, with extroversion positively related to mental health and neuroticism negatively related to it. Results contribute to the management of individual responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and could help public health services provide personality-appropriate mental health services during this pandemic.

Knowledge, attitudes, and practices toward COVID-19 among university students in Japan and associated factors: An online cross-sectional survey
The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has greatly altered peoples’ daily lives, and it continues spreading as a crucial concern globally. Knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) toward COVID-19 are related to individuals’ adherence to government measures. This study evaluated KAP toward COVID-19 among university students in Japan between May 22 and July 16, 2020, via an online questionnaire, and it further investigated the associated determining KAP factors. Among the eligible respondents (n = 362), 52.8% were female, 79.0% were undergraduate students, 32.9% were students whose major university subjects were biology-related, 35.4% were from the capital region, and 83.7% were Japanese. The overall KAP of university students in Japan was high. All respondents (100%) showed they possessed knowledge on avoiding enclosed spaces, crowded areas, and close situations. Most respondents showed a moderate or higher frequency of washing their hands or wearing masks (both at 96.4%). In addition, 68.5% of respondents showed a positive attitude toward early drug administration. In the logistic regressions, gender, major subjects, education level, nationality, residence, and psychological factors (private self-consciousness and extroversion) were associated with knowledge or attitudes toward COVD-19 (p < 0.05). In the logistic and multiple linear regressions, capital regions, high basic knowledge, high information acquisition, correct information explanations contributed positively to preventative action (p < 0.05). Non-capital regions, male gender, non-bio-backgrounds, high public self-consciousness, high advanced knowledge, incorrect information explanations, and high extroversion contributed negatively to self-restraint (p < 0.05). Moreover, self-restraint was decreasing over time. These findings clarify the Japanese university students’ KAP and the related factors in the early period of the COVID-19 pandemic, and they may help university managers, experts, and policymakers control the future spread of COVID-19 and other emerging infections.

Emotional Inhibition and Personality as Predictors of Anxiety and Depression in Young Adults
Purpose: Anxiety and depression have been major contributors to the global burden of disease, and the impact has been exacerbated following the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the aim of this study was to understand the association between emotional suppression and the introverted-extraverted dimension of personality in young people and anxiety and depression.Method: Participants were 152 Indian females between the age group of 18-25 years who provided basic demographic details and completed three questionnaires via a google form.Findings: Results described a significant negative correlation of anxiety r (152) = .500, p <0.01and depression r(152)=.471, p <0.01 with emotional inhibition. There was also a significant positive correlation of anxiety r (152) = .288,p < 0.01 and depression r(152)= .288, p <0.01 with personality. While Emotional inhibition emerged as a significant negative predictor of anxiety (R2= .250) as well as of depression (R2=.222), personality (R2=.243) emerged as a significant predictor of depression.Conclusion/Value: Contrary to popular belief, the results of this study suggest that anxiety and depression are inversely related to emotional inhibition. It restores the complexity of emotions and the need to investigate their role in various pathologies. These findings provide an initial basis for further investigation into the role of emotional expression and suppression in the Indian population.
