Abstract
The present study examines the associations between the Five-Factor personality traits and the trips abroad over a period of 12 months in a sample of 349 adults by using Call Detail Records. Our findings show that the modern-day traveler is likely younger, open to new values (O6) and experiences (O4) and seeking novelty and excitement (E5). Higher Extraversion, especially higher levels of social dominance (E3) and energy (E4), and higher spontaneity (C6) also play a role in predicting how often people travel abroad and how many different countries they visit. Our findings indicate the importance of studying personality at a more fine-grained level and cautiously support the notion of the “mobile personality.”
