The study involved 254 young adults: 75 classified as NEET and 179 as non-NEET. Researchers assessed HEXACO personality traits, perceived employability, self-directed learning, future orientation, mental health, social support, education, age, and sex.

The central finding: personality traits do not appear to operate in isolation. Their associations with NEET status depended on psychological resources, education, and, in some cases, sex. A person–context perspective may therefore be more useful than a fixed personality profile.

A Strategic Future-Oriented Mindset—combining perceived employability, self-directed learning, and future-oriented beliefs—was associated with a lower probability of NEET status, especially at low or average levels of Honesty–Humility.
