Five-factor personality questionnaire. Five-factor personality questionnaire McCrae and Costa (Big Five)

Five-factor personality questionnaire or the Big Five test, developed by American psychologists R. McCrae and P. Costa in 1983-1985. Later, the methodology was refined and in its final form it was presented by the NEO-personality questionnaire or NEO-PI-R (from the English. Neuroticism, extraversion, openness - a personality questionnaire). The authors of the questionnaire, R. McCrae and P. Costa, are convinced that the identified five independent variables, more precisely, personality factors of temperament and character (neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, cooperation, conscientiousness) are sufficient for an objective description psychological portrait- personality models.

Thus, big five model(Big five) - dispositional (from the English disposition - predisposition) model of a person's personality (see Fig. 1 Big Five Model)

A five-factor test questionnaire consists of 75 paired, opposite in meaning, stimulus statements that characterize human behavior. The stimulus material has a five-point rating scale (-2; -1; 0; 1; 2) for diagnosing the severity of each of the five factors:

extraversion - introversion;
attachment - isolation;
self-control - impulsiveness;
emotional instability - emotional stability;
expressiveness - practicality.

Currently, the Big Five test questionnaire has become popular and has gained a large practical value both abroad and in Russia. The 5PFQ technique was adapted by A. B. Khromov in 1999.

Instruction

Read the paired statements and decide which of the two alternative statements suits you best. If the statement written to the left of the rating scale is suitable, then use the value "-2" or "-1" to evaluate this statement. If the right statement suits you, then it is evaluated by the values \u200b\u200bof "2" or "1". The values "-2" or "2" are chosen if the evaluated statement is expressed strongly. If this statement is expressed weakly (weaker), then the value "-1" or "1" is chosen. In the case when none of the alternatives suits you, but something in between suits, then the value "0" is selected.

The selected value is recorded in the answer sheet in the left cell.

Key to the test, handling the results of the Big Five Test. (Five-factor personality questionnaire (R. McCrae, P. Costa). Methodology for diagnosing personality factors temperament and character(5PFQ))

1. The selected evaluation values of statements are converted into points:

Evaluation scale

2. The scores are put down in the answer sheet in the right cells of the corresponding statements. Each of the main five factors consists of five primary factors. For example, the main factor "extraversion - introversion" consists of primary factors 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5. In quantitative terms, the primary factors are determined by summing up the three scores. For example, the primary factor 1.1 "activity - passivity" is estimated by the sum of points received for statements 1, 6, 11.

Answer sheet.

3. The summation of the scores of the primary factors along the vertical determines the quantitative expression of the corresponding main factor. For example, the sum of scores of primary factors 1.1, 1.2,1.3, 1.4, 1.5 determines the quantitative expression of the first main factor "extraversion - introversion".

In the same way, the quantitative expression of the remaining main factors is determined: II (attachment - isolation); III (self-control - impulsiveness); IV (emotional stability - emotional instability); V (expressiveness - practicality).

Big Five Test Interpretation. (Five-factor personality questionnaire (R. McCrae, P. Costa). Methodology for diagnosing personality factors temperament and character(5PFQ))

1. On the basis of an analysis of the primary factors, it is possible to form a certain idea of the characterological features of the subject. For example, high scores (11-15) on the primary factor 1.1 indicate a certain activity of the subject, low scores (-7) indicate his passivity. In each of the primary factors, on the left is a personality trait that, according to the Big Five, corresponds to high scores, and on the right is a personality trait with low scores. For example, the primary factor 1.2 (dominance - subordination) was rated high (11-15). It can be stated that the subject, apparently, has a sign of dominance. If, on the basis of this factor, low values(3-7 points), then the subject is most likely characterized by a sign of subordination (conformity).

2. Below are the characterological traits that can be determined in the subject using the primary factors of the "Big Five".

1. Extraversion - introversion

1.1. Activity - passivity

1.2. dominance - subordination

3.2. Perseverance - lack of perseverance

3.3. Responsibility - irresponsibility

3.4. Self-control of behavior - impulsivity (lack of self-control)

3.5. prudence - carelessness

4. Emotional stability- emotional instability

4.1. Anxiety - carelessness

4.3. Depression - emotional comfort

5. Expressiveness - practicality

5.1. Curiosity - conservatism

5.2. Curiosity - realism

5.3. Artistry - lack of artistry

5.4. Sensitivity - insensitivity

3. The sum of the scores of the primary factors along the vertical determines the quantitative expression of the main factor. Minimal amount score for any major factor is 15, maximum amount– 75. Conditionally scores can be divided into high (51-75 points), medium (41-50 points) and low (15-40 points).

fig.1. Model Big Five (Big Five) .

Description of five factors.

First factor

extraversion

introversion

High values of the factor determine the orientation of the human psyche towards extraversion.

Typical extroverts are sociable, enjoy fun and social activities, have a large circle of friends and acquaintances, feel the need to communicate with people with whom they can talk and have a good time, seek idleness and entertainment, do not like to bother themselves with work or study, gravitate towards sharp , exciting impressions, often take risks, act impulsively, thoughtlessly, on the first impulse.

Extroverts are carefree, optimistic and love change.

They have weakened control over feelings and actions, so they are prone to irascibility and aggressiveness.

In work, as a rule, they are focused on the speed of completing the task; from monotonous activity, they develop a state of monotony faster. Extroverts prefer to work with people.

In activities, extroverts retrieve information from memory faster than introverts, perform difficult tasks better in a situation of time pressure.

Extroverts feel more alert in the evening and work better in the afternoon. Such people are sensitive to encouragement.

Low values for the factor are typical for introverts.

The main features of introverts are the lack of confidence in the correctness of their behavior and inattention to the events taking place around them; greater reliance on one's own strengths and desires than on the views of other people; preference for abstract ideas over concrete phenomena of reality.

Introverts have an even, somewhat lowered mood background. They are preoccupied with their personal problems and experiences. Such people are usually reserved, reserved, avoid talking about themselves, and are not interested in other people's problems. They prefer books to socializing with people. Introverts prefer the theoretical and scientific species activities. In school, they achieve more noticeable success than extroverts.

Introverted people like to plan their future, always weigh their actions, do not trust the first impulses and hobbies, always strictly control their feelings, are rarely unrestrained and excited. Introverts are easier to tolerate monotony in activities, work better in a calm environment and in the morning. They are more sensitive to punishment than to reward.

Second factor

Attachment

Isolation

High values for this factor determine positive attitude person to people.

Such individuals feel the need to be close to other people. As a rule, these are kind, sympathetic people, they understand other people well, feel personal responsibility for their well-being, and are tolerant of the shortcomings of other people.

They know how to empathize, support collective events and feel responsible for the common cause, conscientiously and responsibly carry out their assignments.

Interacting with others, such people try to avoid disagreements, do not like competition, prefer to cooperate with people rather than compete.

Such people love order and comfort, they are persistent in activities and usually achieve high results in it. They stick moral principles, do not violate the generally accepted norms of behavior in society and comply with them even when the norms and rules seem like an empty formality

High conscientiousness and conscientiousness are usually combined with good self-control, with the desire to assert universal human values, sometimes to the detriment of personal ones. Such people rarely feel completely uninhibited enough to allow themselves to give vent to feelings.

(low self-control behavior)

Methodology for the study of the characteristics of thinking (MIOM). The methodology for studying the characteristics of thinking (MIOM, adapted by D.I. Shpachenko, 1984), used to assess the verbal intelligence and analytical and predictive abilities of managers, is an adapted version of R. Amthauer's intelligence structure test (Amthauer Intelligenz-Strukture-Test, I-S-T, 1953). MIOM is designed to measure the level of intellectual development of persons aged 13 to 61 years.

The test consists of nine subtests (Appendix 4), each of which is aimed at measuring different functions of intelligence. In total, the subjects are offered 176 tasks. The test was developed, first of all, as a method for diagnosing the level of general abilities in connection with the problems of professional psychodiagnostics, developing recommendations for choosing a profession, and analyzing professional suitability.

1. Logical selection and general awareness – the study of inductive thinking, a sense of language. The subject's task is to complete the sentence with one of the given words. The number of tasks is 20. The execution time is 6 minutes.

2. Definition common features – study of the ability to abstract, operate with verbal concepts. The tasks offer five words, four of which are united by a certain semantic connection, and one is superfluous. This word must be highlighted in the answer. The number of tasks is 20. The execution time is 6 minutes.

3. Analogies – analysis of combinatorial abilities. Three words are offered in the tasks, there is a certain connection between the first and the second. After the third word, a dash. Of the five options offered for the task, it is necessary to choose a word that would be associated with the third in the same way as the first two. Number of tasks - 11. Execution time - 7 minutes.

4. Classification – assessment of the ability to make judgments and make generalizations. It is necessary to designate two words most general concept. The number of tasks is 16. The execution time is 8 minutes. The response score varies from 0 to 2 points depending on the level of generalization.

5. Tasks for the account – assessment of the level of development of practical mathematical thinking. Number of tasks - 20. Solution time - 10 minutes.

6. Number series - analysis of inductive thinking, the ability to operate with numbers. In 20 tasks, it is necessary to establish the pattern of the number series and continue it. Run time - 10 minutes.

7. Choice of figures – study of spatial thinking, combinatorial abilities. The tasks are divided into parts geometric figures. When choosing an answer, you should find a figure that corresponds to a figure divided into parts. The number of tasks is 20. The execution time is 7 minutes.

8. Problems with cubes – is also examined as in the 7th subtest. In each of the 20 tasks, a cube is given in a certain position, changed in relation to a number of cubes, indicated by letters. It is necessary to identify a cube with one of their designated letters. The solution time is 10 minutes.

9. Tasks for the ability to concentrate and RAM - it is proposed to memorize a table of 25 words in 3 minutes. Then, according to the named initial letter, it is necessary to remember to which class the word starting with this letter belongs. Run time - 6 minutes.

When calculating "raw" grades (except for the 4th subtest), each correct solution is valued at 1 point. Then primary estimates for each subtest are converted into scale scores. Thus, the structure of intelligence can be characterized by the profile of success in solving individual groups of tasks. The sum of primary scores for all subtests is translated into an integral assessment of intelligence.

When creating the test, R. Amthauer proceeded from the concept that considers the intellect as a specialized substructure in the integral structure of the personality. This construct is understood by him as a structured integrity of mental abilities, manifested in various forms activities.

The test makes it possible to distinguish in the integral structure of the intellect the characteristics of abilities manifested in various forms of activity. These are speech, counting and mathematical (analytical and prognostic) abilities, spatial thinking and others.

When selecting test tasks R. Amthauer was guided by two main principles: 1) ensuring the highest possible correlation of each subtest with overall result; 2) achieving the lowest possible correlation between individual groups assignments.

This gives grounds for the selective use of variants of this test. In a set of subtests used in professional psychological selection candidates for training at the Academy of Management of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia included, first of all, tasks aimed at assessing the ability to logical thinking as the most informative about the intellectual level of development of the personality of the future leader (subtests Nos. 2,3 and 6).

MIOM is used by the centers of psychodiagnostics of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, units of psychological support educational institutions Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia

Methodology for the analysis of typical management situations (MATUS) designed to assess the severity of managerial thinking (Appendix 5). Implements a subject-activity approach in the psychodiagnostics of professionally important qualities of the head of the Department of Internal Affairs. The methodology simulates the working environment that develops around the head of a particular internal affairs body by sequentially presenting him various situations encountered in the practice of ATS management. The subject, performing a thought experiment, identifies himself with the subject of the action (leader), carries out the development and adoption of a managerial decision corresponding to the situation presented for resolution. At the same time, the study of thinking directly in the simulated activity is based on the reconstruction of the procedural aspects of thinking through the objectification of its subject-content aspects.

An important place in diagnosing activity situations is occupied by the additional motivation of the subjects, which, delving into their usual work environment, intensively reflecting, solve typical operational tasks. At the same time, the stimulus material and the closed list of possible MATUS responses, as elements of the diagnostic system, are an organic unity and are developed taking into account the following specific requirements:

The methodology should determine the qualitative and quantitative characteristics (degree of severity) of the subject's managerial thinking with the appropriate psychometric indicators of the test;

The influence on the result of the study of other individually psychological characteristics (professional knowledge, experience, memory, interests, worldview, culture, and others), except for the diagnosed PVC, should be minimal;

Business situations in the aggregate should reflect the actual processes that are similar to those that arise or, under certain circumstances, may arise in the activities of the Department of Internal Affairs;

In practical situations, should be presented different kinds leader activity.

MATUS (full version) contains 10 business situations, each of which has four possible solutions.

The system of objective indicators characterizing managerial thinking was the success (correctness) of solving problems and the time spent (taken into account optionally). The test results are presented on a scale of walls (10 points), which corresponded to the maximum number of correctly solved problems of the methodology.

Basic psychometric characteristics MATUS. The correlation between the results of the two surveys (retest reliability) is 0.92. The high indicator of MATUS retest reliability can be explained by the peculiarity of human memory for better memorization of semantic (activity-oriented) information, since the test subject, according to the testing conditions, was forced to “permeate” the proposed practical situations in order to successfully find their solution.

Comparison of the number of correctly solved MATUS tasks (Ks scale) with the results of subtests 2, 3 and 6 of the methodology for studying the characteristics of thinking, as well as the Ie, Mp, Ct scales of the California Psychological Inventory (CPI) indicates the existence of certain correlations with diagnostic indicators, evaluating individual parameters of the individual's intellectual efficiency (Table 3.11).

When needed: to diagnose personal factors of temperament and character of the respondent.

Instruction

Read the paired statements and decide which of the two alternative statements suits you best.

If the statement written to the left of the rating scale is suitable, then use the value "-2" or "-1" to evaluate this statement. If the right statement suits you, then it is evaluated by the values \u200b\u200bof "2" or "1". The values "-2" or "2" are chosen if the evaluated statement is expressed strongly. If this statement is expressed weakly (weaker), then the value "-1" or "1" is chosen. In the case when none of the alternatives suits you, but something in between them, then the value "0" is selected.

The Key to the McCrae and Costa Five-Factor Personality Inventory

Description

The five-factor personality questionnaire or the Big Five test was developed by American psychologists R. McCrae and P. Costa in 1983-1985. Later, the methodology was refined and in its final form it was presented by the NEO-Personal Questionnaire or NEO-PI-R. The authors of the questionnaire, R. McCrae and P. Costa, are convinced that the identified five independent variables, more precisely, personality factors of temperament and character (neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, cooperation, conscientiousness) are sufficient for an objective description of a psychological portrait - a model of personality.

The five-factor questionnaire consists of 75 paired, opposite in meaning, stimulus statements that characterize human behavior. The stimulus material has a five-point rating scale (-2; -1; 0; 1; 2) for diagnosing the severity of each of the five factors:

extraversion - introversion;
attachment - isolation;
self-control - impulsiveness;
emotional instability - emotional stability;
expressiveness - practicality.

At present, the Big Five test questionnaire has become popular and has gained great practical importance both abroad and in Russia. The 5PFQ methodology was adapted by A.B. Khromov in 1999.

Key to the test

1. The selected evaluation values of statements are converted into points:

Evaluation scale

2. The scores are put down in the answer sheet in the right cells of the corresponding statements. Each of the main five factors consists of five primary factors. For example, the main factor "extroversion - introversion" consists of primary factors 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5. In quantitative terms, the primary factors are determined by summing up the three scores. For example, the primary factor 1.1 "activity - passivity" is estimated by the sum of points received for statements 1, 6, 11.

1.5 =	2.5 =	3.5 =	4.5 =	5.5 =
I=	II =	III =	IV =	V =

3. The summation of the scores of the primary factors along the vertical determines the quantitative expression of the corresponding main factor. For example, the sum of scores of primary factors 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 determines the quantitative expression of the first main factor "extraversion - introversion".

Interpretation

Based on the analysis of primary factors, one can form a certain idea of the characterological features of the subject. For example, high scores (11–15) on the primary factor 1.1 indicate a certain activity of the subject, low scores (-7) indicate his passivity. In each of the primary factors, the personality trait with high scores according to the Big Five is indicated on the left, while the personality trait with low scores is indicated on the right. For example, primary factor 1.2 (dominance - subordination) was rated high (11-15). It can be stated that the subject, apparently, has a sign of dominance. If low values (3–7 points) are obtained for this factor, then the subject is most likely characterized by a sign of subordination (conformity).

Below are the characterological traits that can be determined in the subject using the primary factors of the "Big Five".

1. Extraversion - introversion

1.1. Activity - passivity

1.2. dominance - subordination

1.3. sociability - isolation

1.4. Seeking Impressions - Avoiding Impressions

1.5. Manifestation - avoidance of guilt

2. Attachment - isolation

2.1. Warmth - indifference

2.2. Cooperation - rivalry

2.3. Confidence - Suspicion

2.4. Understanding - misunderstanding

2.5. Respect for others is self-respect

3. Self-control - impulsiveness

3.1. Accuracy - inaccuracy (lack of accuracy)

3.2. Perseverance - lack of perseverance

3.3. Responsibility - irresponsibility

3.4. Self-control of behavior - impulsiveness (lack of self-control)

3.5. prudence - carelessness

4. Emotional stability - emotional instability

4.1. Anxiety - carelessness

4.3. Depression - emotional comfort

4.4. Self-criticism - self-sufficiency

4.5. Emotional lability - emotional stability

5. Expressiveness - practicality

5.1. Curiosity is conservatism

5.2. Curiosity - realism

5.3. Artistry - lack of artistry

5.4. Sensitivity - insensitivity

5.5. Plasticity - rigidity

The sum of the scores of the primary factors along the vertical determines the quantitative expression of the main factor. The minimum number of points scored for any main factor is 15, the maximum number is 75. Conventionally, the scores can be divided into high (51–75 points), medium (41–50 points) and low (15–40 points).

Full name of the technique: Five-factor personality questionnaire (abbreviated version)

Short description: Despite the fact that the questionnaire was created as a means of measuring "normal personality traits", the authors suggest that it will be useful in the clinical and applied fields of activity, as well as in scientific research.

The questionnaire was designed for an honest and cooperative subject and does not contain scales designed to test the veracity of answers. Therefore, it is very important to properly instruct the subject.
