Abstract
Researchers examined the relationship between personality and text messaging. Among women (n = 21), extraversion was positively correlated with number of text messages received. Among men (n=18), conscientiousness was negatively correlated with number of text messages sent. Thus, how personality relates to instant messaging differs for men and women.
