title: Relational tendencies associated with broad personality dimensions.
abstract: Out-patients (N = 76) completed measures of interpersonal motives and construals derived from relational models theory and a five-factor model personality questionnaire. A broader range of associations between personality dimensions and relational tendencies was obtained than interpersonal circle theorists propose, with dimensions other than extraversion and agreeableness having distinctive relational correlates. The interpersonal domain of personality may therefore be somewhat broader than many mainstream personality theorists suppose.
