چکیده:
Objective: This study was conducted to examine the relationships between dispositional
mindfulness, temperament, personality traits, and identity styles and to determine the predictive
power of dispositional mindfulness, temperament, personality traits in identity styles.
Methods: 223 students (120 females and 103 males) from the universities in Tehran were
selected as the sample. The data were gathered using the Temperament and Character Inventory,
the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale, and the Identity Style Inventory.
Results: Dispositional mindfulness was significantly correlated with identity styles and identity
commitment. There were also significant relationships between mindfulness and temperament
dimensions and character dimensions (-0.32 to 0.38, P<0.01). Regression analysis indicated
that three personality dimensions, i.e., self-directedness, self-transcendence, novelty seeking
and dispositional mindfulness predict 35% of the variance of identity commitment; and
dispositional mindfulness, self-transcendence, cooperativeness and novelty seeking predict
26% of the variance of normative identity style.
Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that mindfulness and the psychobiological
aspects of personality may have a significant role in the process of identity achievement. Also,
the biological aspects of personality may have a significant role in dispositional mindfulness.

"He presents a psychobiological model of personality that includes four temperaments (novelty seeking, harm avoidance, reward dependence, and persis- tence) and three characters (self-directedness, coopera- tiveness and self-transcendence) dimensions.
We can’t explain the relationship of dispositional mind- fulness with different emotions and other mental health scales without considering social factors, or the joint variance of general personality traits, like neuroticism and extraversion and their effect on psychological well- being (Brown &amp; Ryan, 2003; Giluk, 2009; Latzman &amp; Masuda, 2013; Tucker et al.
Another goal of the study is to explore the predictive role of dispositional mindfulness along with the biological and character aspects of personality in identity styles.
Measures used in this study were Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI- 125), and Identity Style Inventory (ISI-6G).
According to Table 4, the results of stepwise regression analysis for trait mindfulness and personality traits pre- dicting the identity styles indicate that in the final step, 35% of the variance of identity commitment is predicted by self-directness (β=0.
Discussion</H2> The finding of this study revealed negative relationships between mindfulness and two temperament dimensions - harm avoidance and novelty seeking; and positive rela- tionships between mindfulness and two character person- ality dimensions - cooperativeness and self-directedness.
As we can see in stepwise re- gression analysis, self-transcendence, cooperativeness, and novelty seeking along with mindfulness predicting 26% of the variance of normative identity style.
The findings indicate significant relationships between mindfulness and both personality dimensions and iden- tity styles, especially informational identity style and identity commitment."
