Figure 3
Correlations between Big Five personality traits and time spent on leisure activities in the SOEP. Participation refers to analysis of whether or not a respondent reported the activity; time spent refers to analysis of minutes spent on activity. Notice that the width of the confidence intervals can vary between the two outcomes as non-participation in an activity leads to missing values for the time spent on the activity. Zero-order refers to models that only include personality and time use; controlled models additionally take into account the effects of gender and age. Rows display results for watching TV, using computer/internet, reading, and actively doing sports respectively (all N = 1,364).
