Objective: For leaders of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) grappling with diverse tasks and stressors, personality functioning can play a key role on stress perception and building and managing professional relationships. We investigated the relationship between SME leaders' personality functioning on the dimensions of self-perception and self-regulation on perceived stress reactivity (PSR), and symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Methods: A cross-sectional sub analysis of a multi-centre RCT project was performed.
Article Synopsis
- The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) groups mental disorders based on their symptoms and underlying patterns, including a focus on personality functioning (PF) as a significant factor in mental health.
- This study explored how PF fits into the HiTOP framework and its ability to predict broader issues related to mental health, such as affective well-being (AWB) and psychosocial impairment (PSI), using data from a mental health app with over 27,000 users.
- Findings suggest that PF plays a crucial role in explaining transdiagnostic variance in mental health conditions and can be useful for clinicians in assessing and treating a variety of disorders by focusing on key aspects of personality functioning.
