description Background: Redemptive self is a part of life narratives in which bad scenes are redeemed with good results or positive emotions. Personality traits in the big-5 model are: neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between redemptive self and personality traits with some psychological characteristics including psychological well-being, career adaptability, generativity, and emotional intelligence. Methods: In this study, 57 Iranian adults in the age range of 22-65 years were selected by convenience sampling method and filled in the Life Story Questionnaire, NEO test, Loyola Generativity Scale (LGS), Ryff Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWB), Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS), and Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire. Individuals' answers to the questionnaire questions were analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression using SPSS software. Findings: Based on the results of the present study, the relationship between the redemptive self and personality traits with each of the psychological characteristics mentioned above was significant. Redemptive self and personality traits had a significant relationship with psychological well-being, career adaptability, generativity, and emotional intelligence and predicted them. Conclusion: Redemptive self and extraversion predicted generativity, neuroticism (negatively) and agreeableness predicted psychological well-being, extroversion predicted career adaptability, and agreeableness predicted emotional intelligence.
