The Clinical Implications of Temperament-Character Model in Psychological Assessment and Intervention

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical implications of Cloninger(1987, 2004)'s temperament-character model of personality through grafting current psychotherapeutic approaches (focusing on change and acceptance) and positive psychological researches (in which examine happiness and adaptation) onto the suggested model. In order to explore the relationships temperament-character dimensions of personality with psychological adaptation, character strengths, and personality disorders, correlation analysis and regression analysis were used. We found that psychological maladaptation and personality disorders were generally related to high novelty seeking, high harm avoidance, low reward dependence, low persistence of temperament dimensions, and low self-directedness, low cooperativeness, low self-transcendence of character dimensions. Furthermore, temperament dimensions were separately related to specific character strengths and specific clusters of personality disorders. These results showed that temperament dimensions operate both vulnerable and resilient manner upon adaptation. Based on the results, the authors discussed the meaning of the temperament regulation through character maturation in theoretical and empirical manner. Finally, the limitations of this study were discussed along with suggestions for further research.
