Academic Paper from the year 2024 in the subject Sociology - Children and Youth, , language: English, abstract: Adolescence is a pivotal stage for identity and goal exploration, necessitating a focus on holistic development and spiritual formation. This study examines the intersection of the 'Big Five' personality traits¿Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism¿with the modified Five Cs of Adolescents Spiritual development¿Calling, Character, Competence, Courage, and Community. Adapting the 5Cs by Geldhof et al., for Positive Youth Development and modifying it to fit the spiritual formation of adolescents, this study Utilizes document analysis, and observation of focus groups of adolescents in Bamenda across psychology, education, sociology, and theology, the research aims to determine the influence of these 5Cs and the mediating effects of personality traits on adolescent growth. Research has shown that the development of adolescents' character, competence, and community involvement is influenced by their temperament and character traits. These traits, particularly self-directedness, play a protective role in their well-being and psychosocial adjustment. Furthermore, Pedersen opines that the context in which adolescents engage, such as peer, school, and employment, can shape their competence and influence their self-esteem and delinquency. Jalal et al., believe Personality development programs, including those focused on motivation, leadership, and caring, have been found to positively impact students' character. However, the mediating effects of personality traits on the holistic development of adolescents are also influenced by psychosocial stress, with acute stress partially mediating the longitudinal stability of conscientiousness.
