Personality Traits in Individuals with Different Profiles of Subjective Life Quality

957

Abstract

The paper presents findings of a study on individual subjective life quality and types of its profiles, describes the correlation between the subjects' personality traits and their profiles of subjective life quality, and demonstrates how personality development levels change with the transition to a more safe and balanced profile. The basic technique employed in the study was a specially developed multi-scale inventory aimed at measuring the levels and profiles of life quality and the interconnections between different indicators of life activities. The outcomes of the study allowed to describe the structural and typological characteristics of individuals with different profiles of subjective life quality and to reveal the cause-and-effect relation underpinning the changes in the individual's subjective evaluation of his/her own life resulting from higher levels of integral personality development.
