Personality Dimensions of Subjects With Aviophobia: A Case-Control Comparison With Frequent Fliers

We identified distinct personality profiles among individuals with AP compared to FFs, characterized by elevated neuroticism and diminished conscientiousness and agreeableness. The current findings may enhance our understanding of the psychological mechanisms underlying flight-related anxiety and suggest the value of personality-based approaches in developing targeted interventions for AP.

Abstract

We identified distinct personality profiles among individuals with AP compared to FFs, characterized by elevated neuroticism and diminished conscientiousness and agreeableness. The current findings may enhance our understanding of the psychological mechanisms underlying flight-related anxiety and suggest the value of personality-based approaches in developing targeted interventions for AP.
