Note.
The numbers under the "+ -"
heading indicate the number of positively and negatively items in the scale.
So, for example, "5+3=8" indicates that there are 5 positively
keyed items and 3 negatively keyed items, for 8 total items. Note.
The factors are described in the following article: DeYoung, C. G., Quilty, L. C., & Peterson, J. B. (2007). Between
facets and domains: 10 aspects of the Big Five. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 93, 880-896. |
