Higher Extraversion and Lower Conscientiousness in Humans Infected with Toxoplasma

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Toxoplasmosis is associated with specific differences in the personality of infected subjects relative to non-infected subjects. These differences are usually considered to be a side effect of the manipulative activity of the parasite aimed to increase the probability of its transmission from the intermediate host to the definitive host by predation. The personality of infected subjects was studied mostly using the Cattell''s questionnaire. However, this questionnaire is now considered outdated and hasbeen mostly substituted with the NeuroticismExtraversionOpenness Personality InventoryRevised (NEO-PI-R) questionnaire in clinical practice. Here, we searched for the association between toxoplasmosis and the personality by screening a population of students with the NEO-PI-R questionnaire. We found that Toxoplasma-infected male and female students had significantly higher extraversion and lower conscientiousness. The conscientiousness negatively correlated with the length of infection i
