Features оf influence of the basic personality traits on indicators of intelligence in men and women

The present work is devoted to the study of the influence of personality traits on the level of intelligence from gender perspective. The results of the study, the conceptual basis of which was the model of personality of H. Eysenck and C. Robert Cloninger, indicate that Extroversion and Neuroticism are the predictors of the level of verbal intelligence in men, and Novelty Seeking and Reward Dependence are predictors of the level of figurative intelligence. In women, Neuroticism had the most pronounced influence on level of both verbal and figurative intelligence: higher IQ was associated with higher emotional stability.
