Summary / Abstract:

ENWe developed a taxonomy and structure of Lithuanian personality attributes following the principles of the psycholexical approach. Personality-relevant descriptors – 9625 adjectives, type-nouns, attribute-nouns, and participles – were selected from the Dictionary of the Standard Lithuanian Language by two judges, and subsequently classified by six judges. Finally, a principal component analysis was performed, followed by varimax rotation for the 627 morphemically unique personality-descriptive terms, separately for ipsatized self-ratings and peer-ratings from 519 and 554 Lithuanian students respectively. We found that the Big Five structure was the best fit for the self-ratings with no need to re-align emic factors, whereas HEXACO dimensions were confirmed after re-rotating the six-factor structure. The best fit for the peer-ratings was four-factor structure. [From the publication]
