| Summary: | Personality traits influence most, if not all, of the human activities, from those as natural as the way people walk, talk, dress and write to those most complex as the way they interact with others. Most importantly, personality influences the way people make decisions including, in the case of developers, the criteria they consider when selecting a software project they want to participate. Most of the works that study the influence of social, technical and human factors in software development projects have been focused on the impact of communications in software quality. For instance, on identifying predictors to detect files that may contain bugs before releasing an enhanced version of a software product. Only a few of these works focus on the analysis of personality traits of developers with commit permissions (committers) in Free/Libre and Open-Source Software (FLOSS) projects and their relationship with the software artifacts they interact with. This thesis presents an approach, based on the automatic recognition of personality traits from e-mails sent by committers in FLOSS projects, to uncover relationships between the social and technical aspects that occur during software development processes. Experimental results suggest the existence of some relationships among personality traits projected by the committers through their e-mails and the social (communication) and technical activities they undertake. |
