Note.
All of the IPIP scales contain 10 items. All of the HEXACO-PI facet
scales contain 8 items, but for the purpose of constructing IPIP scales, some HEXACO-PI items were removed to maximize internal-consistency. Ashton, Lee, and Goldberg (2007) used Lee and Ashton's (2004) version of the HEXACO-PI to construct IPIP representations of the HEXACO-PI constructs. Current versions of the HEXACO-PI are available to researchers at https://hexaco.org/hexaco-inventory . |
