What’s Your Personality Like? Ever wonder what your personality is like? Psychologists have long wondered that too. For decades now have offered a bewildering array of theories, research, and tests that purport to measure this thing we call “personality.” Enter “the Big Five” personality dimensions. Rather than present personality from a particular psychological theoretical perspective, the Big Five personality traits were derived from how people use everyday words to describe themselves and others. And now we have a simple 50-question personality test you can use here on Psych Central to determine your rating along these 5 traits. The “Big” in the Big Five refer to the broadness of the traits this test measures. What are the five traits and what do they measure broadly? The history of the Big Five is interesting, in that it’s derived from Raymond Cattell’s ground-breaking research into personality traits. Ah well. Back to the Big Five… How did we get to just five global personality traits? References: Dr.

DRUGPIMP Blue Wave Foundation - It's OK 2B Blue A Quick Measure of Achievement Motivation Australian Psychologist, Vol. 14 No. 3, November, 1979, 337-344. A Quick Measure of Achievement Motivation - Validated in Australia and Reliable in Britain and South Africa J.J. Ray, University of New South Wales ABSTRACTA 14 item short form of the Ray Achievement Motivation scale was developed. When tested on seven samples from Sydney, London, Glasgow and Johannesburg it showed reliabilities of over .70 when applied to English speakers. There seems to be considerable demand for a short self-report index of achievement motivation, suitable for use in survey research. The present paper reports, then, the development of a short form of the Ray (1970, 1974, 1975) achievement motivation scale. This was an international study drawing on random cluster samples of the populations of London, Sydney and Glasgow. To enable cross-validation on the other samples, the item analyses were based solely on the London responses. This was a validation study. Table 1 1. Table 2. Subdivided by sex: Table 3.
