N = 1,102. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01. Only correlations of ‘Sex’ are non-parametric (Spearman); Male sex is coded = 1 and female sex is coded = 2; SPS = sum score of all three HSPS-G subfactors; AES, aesthetic sensitivity; EOE, ease of excitation; LST, low sensory threshold; N, neuroticism; E, extraversion; O, openness; A, agreeableness; C, conscientiousness.
