Abstract

Socializing is an essential part of people's daily lives, but because of the large population in the world, people with different personalities have different ways of getting along. This leads to a lot of people face a lot of communication problems when socializing, resulting in conflict. This paper analyzes the Big Five personalities and discusses their differences in conflict resolution and social interaction. Openness, conscientiousness, and extroversion positively correlate with cooperative conflict management, while neuroticism shows a negative correlation. Agreeableness and neuroticism positively correlate with submissive conflict management, whereas conscientiousness and extroversion correlate negatively. Openness and agreeableness are negatively correlated with competitive conflict management. At the social level, conscientiousness, agreeableness, and neuroticism positively correlate with social continuity, while extroversion correlates negatively. Initiative positively correlates with extroversion and negatively with neuroticism. Openness and agreeableness negatively correlate with competition; openness correlates positively with creativity, while conscientiousness negatively correlates with compatibility. This paper suggests that individuals adopt corresponding ways to get along with others according to different personality traits in future social interactions to alleviate conflicts. This study links the personality with common problems in life, making them better integrated into daily life, helping to promote interpersonal communication and alleviate interpersonal conflicts.
