Resumo: The aim of this study was to investigate the contributions of personality traits and life events as predictors of subjective well-being (SWB). Therefore, 274 students were participants, 69% women. Results showed neuroticism and extraversionas the main predictors of SWB. Furthermore, six life events contributed to the explanation of SWB, for example, “relationship breakup” showed was a positive predictor of PositiveAffect;and “financial problems” predicted Life Satisfaction negatively. The results suggest that although people can evaluate their lives as more positive and experience more positive emotions depending on their personality traits, it is pertinent to adopt an integrative approach in the field of SWB, incorporating intrinsic factors such as personality, as well as extrinsic factors such as life events.

Participaram 274 universitários, 69% mulheres. Os resultados mostraram neuroticismo e extroversão como as principais variáveis explicativas do BES. Ainda, seis eventos de vida contribuíram com a explicação do BES, por exemplo, “término de namoro” mostrou-se variável preditiva positiva de Afeto positivo;“problemas financeiros” explicou negativamente a Satisfação de Vida. Os resultados sugerem que, embora as pessoas possam avaliar suas vidas como mais positivas e experienciar afetos mais positivos em função de suas características de personalidade, é pertinente adotar no campo de estudos do BES uma abordagem interacionista, integrando fatores intrínsecos, como personalidade, e extrínsecos, como eventos de vida.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2015-03-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/18572Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 30 No. 4: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 401-409Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 30 Núm. 4: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 401-409Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 30 No. 4: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 401-409Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 30 n. 4: Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa; 401-4091806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
