Abstract

This study examined the relationship between forgiveness and personality traits. A total of 272 Korean undergraduate students (154 males and 118 females) completed a questionnaire consisting of transgression-related interpersonal motivation (avoidance and revenge), dispositional forgiveness (forgiveness of oneself, others, and situations), and the Big Five personality. The results showed that Neuroticism and Agreeableness were closely related with forgiveness. Other-forgiveness was more strongly correlated with Agreeableness than with Neuroticism, whereas self- and situation-forgiveness were more closely correlated with Neuroticism than with Agreeableness. In terms of facet scales, other-forgiveness was strongly correlated with Hostility, Compliance and Trust, whereas self- and situation-forgiveness were strongly correlated with Anxiety, Depression, and Vulnerability of the Neuroticism factor. It is also showed that the relation between agreeableness and forgiveness was mediated by empathy and self-esteem. These results indicate that forgiver's personality is an important determinant of forgiveness.
