We often describe a friendly, kind, and cooperative person as “agreeable”. In psychology, agreeableness is actually one of the five major personality traits. People with this trait are usually warm, and prefer harmony over arguments. Most of us would probably rather work or live with someone who is agreeable than with someone who is constantly difficult. But is it always an advantage to be so agreeable? Researchers decided to explore this question.
A 2022 study that combined hundreds of previous studies revealed how agreeableness significantly impacts our lives. The findings show that agreeable people generally experience greater mental well-being. They feel more autonomous, connected to others, and competent (有能力的) in their abilities. This positive trait also brings practical advantages: agreeable students tend to perform better academically and adjust to college more easily, while agreeable workers are often more hard-working and engaged at work.
Furthermore, agreeable individuals report higher life satisfaction and experience more positive emotions. They develop stronger relationships, feel a greater sense of purpose in life, and are less likely to experience loneliness or engage in problematic behaviors. They also tend to have more successful marriages and are significantly less likely to display negative personality traits like being too self-centered.
However, being agreeable does come with a surprising downside in the area of personal finance. Research indicates that highly agreeable people often have lower savings, lower incomes, and experience more financial hardship. This may be because they tend to view money as less important and might be less willing to speak up in salary negotiations or financial decisions.
In summary, while agreeableness is largely a beneficial trait that contributes to strong relationships and personal satisfaction, extremes can be problematic. Being excessively agreeable might lead to difficulties in standing up for oneself or, as shown in financial matters, not advocating for one’s own interests.
Perhaps we could all benefit from being a little more agreeable — but like everything in life, balance is key. For anyone wanting to test this idea in daily life, why not try being slightly more agreeable this week and observe what differences it makes in your interactions?
