摘要： Previous research has examined the factors affecting individuals personality mainly from two perspectivesthe internal factors and external factors. External factors included the influence of geographical factors such as latitude, temperature, and farming style, while internal factors included individuals cognitive capacities such as executive function. However, few studies have combined internal and external factors and examined their interaction effects on personality. The current study sought to test the role of executive function in personality under the environmental factor and to examine how they interact and shape personality. Overall, the data fit the model well. Results indicated that the interaction of latitude and moderate inhibition control predicted personality scores, such that individuals with moderate inhibition control had a stronger effect of latitude on dimensions of personality. It was also found that the interaction of low working memory and latitude predicted personality scores, such that individuals with low working memory had a stronger effect of latitude on dimensions of personality. These results suggest that the executive function may exert the moderating effect in latitude on personality by attenuating or increasing the correlation.
