A new citation I've worked in, the Terman study (only very intelligent children were used) discussed in http://infoproc.blogspot.com/2011/04/earnings-effects-of-personality.html - eyeballing it, going from 10th to 90th in Conscientiousness was worth $800,000 over a lifetime. More than a similar jump in IQ.
Very interesting. I am especially interested in this because I have recently acquired some artificial conscientiousness via habitual use of task lists.
