Abstract

In the article Personality Traits Predict Non-Substance Related and Substance Related Addictive Behaviours A Prospective Study by A. Kr plin, K. F. Kupka, J. H. Fr hner, K.-M. Kr nke, M. Wolff, M. N. Smolka, G. B hringer and T. Goschke (SUCHT, 68, 263 277, https://doi.org/10.1024/0939-5911/a000780) both the English and German abstract contained errors. The first sentence in the results section (in German Ergebnisse ) of the abstract read as follows: The evidence that higher neuroticism, lower conscientiousness, lower agreeableness, higher extraversion, lower openness, higher reward sensitivity, and lower punishment sensitivity predict increased addictive behaviours over time was, overall, moderate to high (69 % to 99 %) and varied by trait and outcome. The sentence was corrected as follows (correction in bold): The evidence that higher neuroticism, lower conscientiousness, lower agreeableness, higher extraversion, lower openness, higher reward sensitivity, and higher punishment sensitivity predict increased addictive behaviours over time was, overall, moderate to high (69 % to 99 %) and varied by trait and outcome. The same applies to the last sentence in the conclusions section: While some personality traits, such as lower conscientiousness, predict increases in both NR and SR addictive behaviours over time, others, such as lower punishment sensitivity, seem to specifically predict increases in NR addictive behaviours. The corrected sentence should read as follows (correction in bold): While some personality traits, such as lower conscientiousness, predict increases in both NR and SR addictive behaviours over time, others, such as higher punishment sensitivity, seem to specifically predict increases in NR addictive behaviours. The same applies to the German abstract in which the first sentence in the section Ergebnisse and the last sentence of the section Schlussfolgerungen have been corrected (correction in bold).
