Resumo

O bem-estar psicológico (BP) é um indicador de qualidade de vida no nível individual e coletivo. A população universitária é vulnerável a baixos níveis de BP. Traços de sexo e personalidade afetam a PA. Aprofundar o conhecimento desses fatores seria de valor para o desenvolvimento de intervenções de acordo com as necessidades específicas dos estudantes universitários. O objetivo deste estudo é comparar a capacidade preditiva dos traços de sexo e personalidade nas dimensões da PA e analisar se o sexo tem efeito moderador em relação à personalidade e à PA. Um total de 407 estudantes universitários foi avaliado através de questionários de auto-relato. O sexo foi um preditor significativo de autonomia e crescimento pessoal. Os traços de personalidade mostraram capacidade preditiva nas dimensões da PA: extroversão, neuroticismo e consciência de auto-aceitação e controle do ambiente; extroversão e agradabilidade sobre relações positivas; extroversão, neuroticismo e abertura à experiência sobre autonomia; Consciência, simpatia e abertura à experiência do crescimento pessoal e as cinco características do propósito da vida. O sexo apresentou um efeito moderador para a relação do traço de consciência com a dimensão de crescimento pessoal. Os traços de personalidade foram associados com as dimensões da PA seguindo principalmente os perfis de relacionamento hipotetizados pela literatura. Este trabalho aprofunda no conhecimento dos fatores que influenciam a PA. Espera-se que contribua para desenvolver intervenções que visem melhorar a qualidade de vida desse grupo populacional.
