Abstract
In accordance with Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory previous studies have demonstrated the association of individual differences in the sensitivity of two basic brain systems that respond to punishing and rewarding stimuli with variations in personality and psychopathology. However, the underlying mechanisms between these constructs remain largely unknown. The aim of the current study was to test whether personality acted as a mediator between sensitivity to reward and punishment on the one hand and internalizing and externalizing problems - on the other hand. Mediation was tested in a sample of 1559 adolescents using a set of regressions. Results indicate that sensitivity to reward and punishment contribute to personality differences, which, in turn, predict internalizing and externalizing problems.
