Resumo(s)
In this article we directly assessed the relationship between valence and relevant
traits of the Big Two dimensions (i.e., communion and agency). Drawing on previous
research, we expected that the relationship with valence would be less monotonous
and more variable in direction across agency‐related traits, compared to commun‐
ion‐related traits. In three repeated measures studies we assessed the perceived
valence of each trait dimension on a continuum of seven points. Studies 1 and 2
defined each continuum verbally. In Study 3 each continuum was defined by facial
features. Results across these studies show that valence is linearly and more consist‐
ently related with communion‐related traits than with agency‐related traits. Within
agency, however, competence established a positive linear relationship with valence,
whereas dominance showed a target‐sensitive relationship with valence: quadratic in
evaluation of trait concepts, and negative and linear in face evaluation. We discuss
the implications of these data for Big Two‐related research.
