Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between forgiveness and personality in a sample of Taiwanese college students. A sample of 155 participants completed measures of State and Trait Forgiveness (Rye et al., 2001) and the Big Five personality traits (Benet-Martínez & John, 1998). Results showed that Agreeableness and Neuroticism were significantly related to both forgiveness measures.
