标题： The Neuroticism Paradox: How Emotional Instability Fuels Collective Feelings

摘要： 集体情绪塑造组织、社区和社会，但决定谁引领这些情绪的特征仍然未知。 传统观念认为，稳定且外向的个体充当情感领袖，安抚并协调他人的情绪。 在这里，我们通过分析38位同地工作的专业人士为期30.5个月的日常情绪数据集（733,534条记录）来挑战这一观点。 使用格兰杰因果关系网络重建，我们发现情绪不稳定的人——那些神经质程度高（r = 0.478，p = 0.002）且尽责性低（r = -0.512，p = 0.001）的人——是真正的“情绪超级传播者”，而外向性没有影响（r = 0.238，p = 0.150）。 这一“神经质悖论”表明，情绪波动而非稳定驱动传染。 情绪以一个相当于麻疹的繁殖率（R_0 = 15.58）传播，但系统通过高聚类（C = 0.705）避免崩溃，从而形成“情绪隔离区”。 随着时间的推移，情绪方差增加了22.9%，与稳态理论相矛盾，揭示了熵驱动的动力学。 我们提出了一种情感流行病学框架，表明集体情绪由网络位置和波动性而非人格稳定性所支配——改变了我们对人类系统中情感领导力的理解。 显示英文摘要

摘要： Collective emotions shape organizations, communities, and societies, yet the traits that determine who drives them remain unknown. Conventional wisdom holds that stable, extraverted individuals act as emotional leaders, calming and coordinating the feelings of others. Here we challenge this view by analyzing a 30.5-month longitudinal dataset of daily emotions from 38 co-located professionals (733,534 records). Using Granger-causality network reconstruction, we find that emotionally unstable individuals -- those high in neuroticism (r = 0.478, p = 0.002) and low in conscientiousness (r = -0.512, p = 0.001) -- are the true "emotional super-spreaders," while extraversion shows no effect (r = 0.238, p = 0.150). This "Neuroticism Paradox" reveals that emotional volatility, not stability, drives contagion. Emotions propagate with a reproduction rate (R_0 = 15.58) comparable to measles, yet the system avoids collapse through high clustering (C = 0.705) that creates "emotional quarantine zones." Emotional variance increased 22.9% over time, contradicting homeostasis theories and revealing entropy-driven dynamics. We propose an Affective Epidemiology framework showing that collective emotions are governed by network position and volatility rather than personality stability -- transforming how we understand emotional leadership in human systems.
