What do traits mean and what are The Big Five traits?


CEVAP:

Traits are distinctive qualities of a person such as being friendly, smart or talkative. One commonly accepted trait taxonomy, called as The Big Five, offers five personality traits where people are scored on these five qualities. It is one of the most widely applied personality instruments in psychology and is considered by many authors to be the best paradigm for personality structure because it is replicable.30 Here are the brief explanations of The Big Five traits:

  • Openness-to-experience: The tendency to be open and sensitive to new aesthetic, cultural or intellectual experiences.
  • Conscientiousness: The degree to which the individual is responsible, hard-working, and organized.
  • Extraversion: The tendency to be outgoing, expressive, energetic and dominant.
  • Agreeableness: A number of traits that enable the individual to foster congenial relationships, and to behave cooperatively and unselfishly.
  • Neuroticism: The individual’s degree of emotional instability and distress, which can also manifest in outer-directed hostility, anger, frustration and irritation.
