400 Character Traits Examples

In today’s post, we will delve into the world of personality psychology, focusing specifically on character traits. Character traits are important aspects of our identity, influencing how we think, feel, and behave in various situations. Whether you are a teacher using them with students in character analysis, a parent fostering positive traits in your children, or an individual seeking personal development, understanding character traits is essential.

Here’s what I will cover in this post: first, a definition of character traits. Next, I will discuss the importance of character traits,then, I will provide examples of character traits across several categories, including emotional, social, moral/ethical, intellectual, physical, behavioral, personality, leadership, and creative traits.

I will conclude with character traits quizzes designed to help you identify your own traits, as well as downloadable worksheets for both adults and children to explore and analyze traits in various contexts. For those of you interested in further reading, I have included references to relevant research papers.

What Are Character Traits

Character traits are “positive traits reflected in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. They exist in degrees and can be measured as individual differences” (Park, Peterson, & Seligman, 2004, p. 603). These traits are enduring qualities that influence how individuals think, feel, and act, distinguishing them from one another based on these measurable differences.

While many use character traits and personality traits interchangeably, the two concepts are distinct. As Bleidorn and Denissen (2015) argue, character traits “are supposed to be morally valued in their own right, regardless of the specific outcomes they produce or the needs they fulfill” (p. 700). This moral dimension sets character traits apart, as they are inherently seen as virtues that contribute to an individual’s overall character.

Furthermore, a trait is any behavior that is consistent over time and across situations. As Fleeson (2012) stated, “consistency is what makes the behavior a trait rather than an accident, a fluke, or the sole consequence of circumstances” (p. 40). This consistency is crucial in defining a trait, ensuring that it is a reliable aspect of an individual’s behavior rather than a temporary or situational response.

Character traits play a crucial role in shaping significant life outcomes. According to a study by Roberts et al. (2007), the predictive power of personality traits on key life outcomes such as mortality, divorce, and occupational success is comparable to that of socioeconomic status (SES) and cognitive ability. Recognizing the importance of character traits not only enhances our understanding of individual differences but also aids in developing interventions and policies aimed at improving overall life satisfaction and success.
