About
Exploring gender differences in fear-related personality traits and their correlation with physical strength across five university samples. This dataset provides valuable insights into how temperament might influence physiological parameters like grip or chest strength, and how these relationships may vary by gender. It also aids in understanding the impact of physical prowess on specific psychological conditions. The data includes demographic details, physical strength measures, and self-report scores on HEXACO Emotionality facets, which are crucial for developing interventions for mental health issues.
