The Big Five Model
• Extroversion
• Agreeableness
• Conscientiousness
• Emotional Stability
• Openness to Experience
Extroversion
Extraversion is "the act, state, or habit of being
predominantly concerned with and obtaining
gratification(great satisfaction) from what is outside
the self". Extraverts tend to enjoy human interactions
and to be enthusiastic, talkative, assertive, and
gregarious. They take pleasure in activities that
involve large social gatherings, such as parties,
community activities, public demonstrations, and
business or political groups. Politics, teaching, sales,
managing, and brokering are fields that favor
extraversion. An extraverted person is likely to enjoy
time spent with people and find less reward in time
spent alone. They tend to be energized when around
other people, and they are more prone to boredom
when they are by themselves.
Agreeableness
– Agreeableness is a tendency to be pleasant and
accommodating in social situations. In contemporary
personality psychology, agreeableness is one of the
five major dimensions of personality structure,
reflecting individual differences in concern for
cooperation and social harmony. People who score
high on this dimension are on average more
empathetic, considerate, friendly, generous, and
helpful.
– People scoring low on agreeableness place self-
interest above getting along with others. They are
generally less concerned with others' well-being,
report less empathy, and are therefore less likely to go
out of their way to help others. Their skepticism about
other people's motives may cause them to be
suspicious and unfriendly. People very low on
agreeableness have a tendency to be manipulative in
their social relationships. They are more likely to
compete than to cooperate.
Conscientiousness
– Conscientiousness is the trait of being painstaking
and careful, or the quality of acting according to
the dictates of one's conscience. It includes such
elements as self-discipline, carefulness,
thoroughness, organization, deliberation (the
tendency to think carefully before acting), and
need for achievement. It is an aspect of what was
traditionally called character.
