A podcast discussion of the article by Katherine A. Duggan et al. published in the May 2019 issue of Psychosomatic Medicine. The researchers analyzed whether conscientiousness during youth was later associated with metabolic syndrome in adulthood. They found that adolescent conscientiousness benefited adult psychological resources regardless of race/ethnicity or socioeconomic (SES) status. In black men of low SES, however, adolescent conscientiousness was related to higher adult metabolic syndrome scores, consistent with other evidence that has suggested that there can be a physiologic cost to persistent efforts to cope with severe chronic stressors.
