This page contains the pre-registration and the supplementary data (i.e., the full-length systematic review table) for the manuscript "Individual differences in verbal irony use: A systematic review of quantitative psycholinguistic studies" by Kałowski et al. (2022). **Abstract**: We carried out a systematic review of psycholinguistic, empirical, quantitative studies on verbal irony use and individual differences (i.e., psychological, not demographic, traits that significantly differentiate individuals). Out of 5,967 publications screened, 29, comprising 34 studies in total, were included. Following a qualitative content analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006), six thematic clusters were identified, representing areas of research in individual differences in irony use: (a) psychological well-being, (b) personality traits, (c) humor-related traits, (d) cultural factors, (e) social skills, and (f) cognitive factors. The results of the studies in each cluster are summarized and conclusions for further research are presented. In particular, the systematic review suggests that irony and sarcasm should be clearly delineated as separate, yet related phenomena due to differing patterns of correlations with specific individual differences. Additionally, significant methodological heterogeneity between the studies suggests the need for greater standardization of irony use measures. **Acknowledgments**: The work on the manuscript was possible thanks to the grant no. 2019/35/D/HS2/01005 within the SONATA Program funded by the National Science Center and awarded to the final author. The authors have no conflicts of interest to report.
