Correlations between Big Five personality traits and time spent on work and chores in the SOEP. Participation refers to analysis of whether or not a respondent reported the activity; time spent refers to analysis of minutes spent on activity. Notice that the width of the confidence intervals can vary between the two outcomes as non-participation in an activity leads to missing values for the time spent on the activity. Zero-order refers to models that only include personality and time use; controlled models additionally take into account the effects of gender and age. Upper row shows results for working/studying $(N=1,364)$; middle row shows results for working/studying in the subsample of participants that reported being fully employed $(N=353)$; lower row shows results for chores $(N=1,364)$
