Analysing the impact of personality traits on voting behaviour, especially for right-wing parties, has a long tradition. Most studies found indirect effects of Big-Five personality traits on vote choice mediated for example by political attitudes, such as partisanship, affective attitudes towards the parties or ideological preferences (e.g. Aidt & Rauh, 2018; Schoen & Schumann, 2007). These studies focussed only on the positive side of the explanation of vote choice such as positive partisanship and leader evaluations. However, more and more studies (e.g. Medeiros and Noel, 2015; Mayer, 2017; Abramowitz & Webster, 2018; Ridge, 2020) showed the importance of negative reasons for voting, namely negative party identification or negative affect towards another party or its leader, for voting behavior - often people are not voting for a party because they prefer it, but because they don't like the other(s) or like the other(s) even less. So far, no one has analysed the psychological bases of such "negative voting" or individual affective polarization in a multiparty system. Based on the German GESIS Panel I explore the relationship between the Big-Five personality traits as well as the Narcissistic Admiration and Rivalry Concept with different aspects of negative voting.
