Neuroanatomical correlates of personality traits in temporal lobe epilepsy: Findings from the Epilepsy Connectome Project
Behavioral and personality disorders in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) have been a topic of
interest and controversy for decades, with less attention paid to alterations in normal
personality structure and traits. In this investigation, core personality traits (the Big 5) and
their neurobiological correlates in TLE were explored using the Neuroticism Extraversion
Openness-Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) and structural magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) through the Epilepsy Connectome Project (ECP). NEO-FFI scores from 67 individuals …
