this paper, the relationship between personality traits and the parameters of
certain social networks is investigated directly through data collection by
precise questionnaire surveys. First, social network analysis is employed to
calculate multiple parameters of the networks. Then, a correlation analysis is
conducted on the relationship between the personality traits and the parameters.
The results show that some network parameters are in consistent with the
students¡¯ personality traits. Results also reveal that the parameters of the
respondents who mark themselves as ¡°extroverted¡± are much closer to those of
respondents who mark themselves as ¡°neutral¡± than ¡°introverted¡±.</span>
