N2 - The article is aimed at describing the correlation between the number and us-age of self-repairs in monologues and the psychological characteristics of the speaker. Self-repair is the correction of one’s own speech fragment which has already been produced. The usage of a particular self-repair strategy by different psychological groups of speakers can show how the speakers’ psy-chotype can affect their speech production.The data for the study are 24 monologues-descriptions in Russian from the corpus “Balanced Annotated Text Library”: 12 monologues of native Rus-sian speakers and 12 monologues of foreign Russian speakers. The main re-pair operation types were annotated: word form change, word change, re-placement of a word part with a word, word insertion, and phrase reformula-tion.The study shows that self-repairs in general are more frequent in introverts’ speech. The prevalent type among all the speakers is self-editing, however, error correction is used more often by introverts. The most frequent repair operations in introverts’ speech are replacement of a word part with a word and word form change. Extraverts’ most frequent type of repair operations is word change. Thus, self-repair initiation and type of operation is, in some cases, connected with the psychological characteristics of the speaker.
