Scientific Background & Psychometric Validity
Originating from the lexical hypothesis research of Sir Francis Galton, Gordon Allport, and refined by Lewis Goldberg and Warren Norman, the model establishes that five robust dimensions account for the major variances in human personality.
Unlike typologies that force respondents into rigid categories, the Five-Factor Model maps personality along continuous bell curves, backed by decades of cross-cultural research.
This assessment retains the exact, original item wording from the International Personality Item Pool (IPIP).
