Adjective markers of Polish indigenous lexical personality factors: A peer-rating study

Journal Title: Roczniki Psychologiczne - Year 2014, Vol 17, Issue 2

Abstract

Studies of other people's personality trait perception have been of marginal significance in the psychology of personality. Such studies usually use tools developed specifically for self-rating research. Similar studies in social psychology are limited to a high level of abstraction. On the basis of earlier Polish peer-rating psycholexical studies, a six-factor structure of dispositional adjectives has been observed, different from the structure obtained in self-rating studies. The pur-pose of the current study was to construct scales enabling the measurement of the adjective mark-ers of Polish lexical personality traits based on the Big Six in a peer-rating study. Another purpose was to examine the psychometric properties of the constructed scales and identify the most impor-tant correlates. The participants were 383 people, with age ranging from 16 to 83 years. The con-structed 48-adjective list allows to measure the axial traits of the Polish lexicon: Agreeableness, Impulsiveness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Resilience, and Intellect. Coefficients of internal consistency and stability reached satisfactory values.
