Relation entre la dépendance à l'exercice physique et les cinq dimensions de la personnalité

Results show that, according to the status of the people under scrutiny, it is either openness to experience and emotional stability or openness to experience and agreeableness which explain the greatest variance of exercise dependence. Then, the description of a personality type seemed very difficult to obtain. We feel it's important to know the personality type, but not sufficient; it is more pertinent to know the type of personality. Then, further research could examine the relationship between personality disorder and exercise dependence. In contrast with the literature, we did not find a relationship between exercise dependence and extraversion.
