Undergraduate Students’ Personality Traits: Relationship with Students’ Gender and Parental Socioeconomic Factors

Journal Title: European Journal of Behavioral Sciences - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 2

Abstract

The study investigates in 301 university students, the relationship of Big Five Factors Model/BFFM personality traits with gender and parental socioeconomic factors. Students completed the International Personality Item Pool/IPIP-50 item, an online self-report questionnaire, and answered questions about specific socioeconomic factors, the educational level and the profession of the parents separately. Statistical Package for Social Sciences/SPSS, 26.0 was used for statistical analysis. Findings confirm gender differences on the Emotional Stability/Neuroticism and Agreeableness scales. Also, both the low educational level and occupation of the parents were associated with higher Agreeableness and the father's low educational level with higher Conscientiousness.
