The Big Five Model:
The "Big Five" personality traits are five empirically supported dimensions of personality -- Openness, Conscientiousness, Extroversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism (OCEAN, orCANOE if rearranged). This description is also known as the Five Factor Model (FFM). The Five Factor Model of personality traits was first presented by the president of the American PsychologicalAssociation, L.L. Thurstone, in 1933. Each factor is actually a cluster of more specific traits that are known to be statistically correlated. There is the most disagreement about the specifics of thetrait of Openness.
The Five Factor Model of personality traits is meant to be descriptive (objectively presenting the data) rather than theoretical -- it does not attempt to explain why these traitsare clustered and distinct. Many have attempted theories to explain it, but there is not full consensus on any one theory. To summarize what the personality traits mean:
Openness: appreciation foremotion, art, unusual ideas, adventure, curiosity, imagination, and variety of experience.
Conscientiousness: a tendency to act dutifully, show self-discipline, and aim for achievement; planned ratherthan spontaneous behavior.
Extraversion: positive emotions, energy, self-confidence, outgoingness, and the tendency to seek stimulation and the comfort of others.
Agreeableness: a tendency to becooperative and compassionate rather than antagonistic and suspicious towards others.
Neuroticism: a tendency to experience negative emotions easily, such as depression, anxiety, anger, or vulnerability;sometimes called emotional stability.
When these values are scored via tests, the results are usually given in percentile format. As in, I might be in the 90th percentile for Openness, but only the50th percentile for Conscientiousness. These personality traits are not absolute, but do persist when all else is equal.
