Participants were 301 unemployed people, 157 of whom had received a grant from an employment agency to start their own business. Participants completed measures of personality traits, self-efficacy, self-esteem, basic trust, satisfaction with life, positive and negative affect. To verify if beliefs about the self and about the world mediated relationships between personality traits and well-being we conducted a multiple-sample SEM. The study results confirm that the beliefs mediate relationships between personality traits and well-being. They also show that different types of beliefs serve a different function, depending on an individual’s circumstances. Among grant acceptors, self-efficacy did not impact well-being, while self-esteem and basic trust had similar functions in both groups.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Relationships between personality traits, general self-efficacy, self-esteem, subjective well-being, and entrepreneurial activity}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/103951/PDF/PPB%202-18%202%20Zi%C4%99ba%20et%20al.pdf}, doi={10.24425/119480}, keywords={well-being, Five Factor Model of personality, beliefs, characteristic adaptations}, }
