Schebetenko, S. A., Vaynshtein, S. V. The Big Five of Personality Features: Explicit-Implicit Approach

Abstract: The authors of the article present a correlation research of personality features in accordance with the two levels of processing of social information by an individual: explicit (central) and implicit (associative) levels. 152 University students participated in the research. The researchers studied the Big Five of personality features from the point of view of the paradigm of multivariate analysis. Explicit features were measured based on the Big Five Inventory questionnaire and the implicit features were measured by the means of the Implicit Association Test. Implicit feature tests had a greater intra-method correlation than the explicit features. Moreover, the inter-scale and intermethod correlation of personality features was significantly low compared to the intra-method correlation factor but only in case of implicit features. The 1–fator model of the implicit features proved to be practically applicable which allowed to support the hypothesis about the general personality factor at the implicit level. The 1–factor model of explicit features proved to be not applicable. The level of extraversion had a better coherence of the explicit and implicit levels. It has been stated that at the first stage of testing the implicit features, individuals had a good control of their emotions which was expressed in better and more socially desired reactions.


Keywords:
