This article presents the development of a junior version of the Spanish (Castilian) NEO Personality Inventory–Revised (JS NEO) suitable for adolescents aged 12 to 18 years. The psychometric properties of the new JS NEO were investigated using two samples of 2,733 and 983 adolescents in Spain. The results showed that the adult NEO-PI-R factor structure was replicated with the junior version of the inventory and that the reliabilities of the scales were adequate. The cross-form correlations between the junior and the adult versions of the questionnaires indicated good equivalence indices. Furthermore, a joint factor analysis of the JS NEO and the Big Five Questionnaire–Children (BFQ-C) provided additional evidence for the construct validity of the JS NEO.

Antecedentes. Una de las teorías de la personalidad más estudiadas es el modelo de los cinco factores, frecuentemente evaluado por medio del Inventario de los Cinco Grandes. A pesar de que existe una versión en español, aún se desconocen las características psicométricas de dicho instrumento en población mexicana. Método. Se evaluaron 472 adultos (217 hombres/255 mujeres) de población abierta de la Ciudad de México. Resultados. La confiabilidad fue de ?=0.72 para toda la escala. Por medio de un Análisis de Componentes Principales, replicamos la estructura de cinco factores de la prueba. También encontramos diferencias entre los sujetos que reportaron haber recibido alguna vez un diagnóstico psiquiátrico o neurológico por un profesionista de la salud y los que no, en las escalas de agradabilidad, responsabilidad y neuroticismo. Conclusiones. Nuestros resultados sugieren que el Inventario de los Cinco Factores es útil para evaluar la personalidad en población mexicana. Sin embargo, una revisión de la escala de agradabilidad puede ser necesaria dada su baja confiabilidad y mala carga factorial de los reactivos que la componen.

Abstract. The 10-Item Big Five Inventory (BFI-10; Rammstedt & John, 2007 ), a short scale version of the well-established BFI, was developed to provide a personality inventory for research settings with extreme time constraints. It allows assessing the Big Five by only two items per dimension. Previous research has clearly shown that the BFI-10 possesses psychometric properties that are comparable in size and structure to those of the full-scale BFI. Based on data from a large sample representative of the German adult population, the present study aimed to provide norms for the total sample and for subsamples depending on different sociodemographic variables and to investigate effects of gender, age, and education on the BFI-10. Results indicate that the sociodemographic effects found in the German representative sample clearly replicate those of previous research conducted in that field.

Objectives Emotional manipulation is an important strategy in social interaction. The English version of MEOS-SF has been developed to make the measurement of such manipulation ability more efficient. The purpose of the current study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of MEOS-SF. Methods Explore factor analysis and Confirmatory factor analysis were adopted to examine the Chinese version of the MEOS-SF factor structure in 645 Chinese participants (mean age = 24.68 ± 6.01 years) recruited online. Results Factor analysis supported a new three-factor model that included Conceal, Prosocial, and Non-prosocial, different from the original English MEOS-SF. Enhance and Divert merged to Prosocial factor while Worsen and Inauthentic merged to Non-prosocial factor because both prosocial and non-prosocial pairs had similar objectives, which would be perceived as the same thing by people in Eastern culture. As expected, MEOS-SF factors were found to be correlated with the Big Five, psychopathy, narcissism, Machiavellianism, and trait EI. Conclusions Our results suggested that the Chinese version of MEOS-SF had acceptable psychometric properties and could be used to assess emotional manipulation.

Os dois estudos da presente investigação tiveram como “Conceptual framework” o modelo dos 5 fatores de Costa and McCrae (1987). Num primeiro estudo, traduziu e adaptou-se para a população portuguesa o Big Five Inventory (BFI) de John, Donahue, & Kentle (1991), modificado por Jonh & Srivastava (1999), avaliando a consistência interna e a estabilidade temporal. Num segundo estudo, o objetivo foi avaliar a estrutura fatorial (validade fatorial) e a validade de critério pela comparação concorrente com um instrumento paralelo já validado para Portugal, o Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI), adaptado e validado por Lima e Castro (2009). Neste 2º estudo pretendeu-se, ainda, verificar novamente o comportamento da consistência interna. Após o primeiro estudo, o BFI passou a designar-se por Inventário dos Cinco Grandes Fatores da Personalidade (IGFP5). A amostra do primeiro estudo foi constituída por 150 jogadores de futebol e a do segundo estudo por 369 participantes do mesmo grupo profissional. No primeiro estudo foram obtidos bons valores de consistência interna, sendo confirmada a estabilidade temporal da medida mediante a obtenção de correlações significativas entre o teste e o reteste e a aproximação dos valores absolutos de alfa nos dois momentos. Em relação ao estudo 2, inicialmente foi extraída uma solução com 16 fatores; contudo, após uma análise do screenplot de eigenvalues, a solução fixada foi penta-fatorial e muito próxima, na extração de itens, à validação original e validações de outros países. A validade de critério foi alcançada pela existência de correlações significativas na direção esperada entre os dois questionários aplicados. A consistência interna global manteve, neste segundo estudo, valores dentro do recomendado, exceto para o fator “amabilidade” que, embora perto do aceitável, tem de ser analisado com cuidado. Os resultados demonstraram que a versão portuguesa do BFI, agora designado por IGFP5, possui boas características psicométricas, embora a subescala/fator amabilidade tenha de ser usada com cuidado.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to determine the effect of the big five personality, social support, collectivism-individualism, and anonymity on expressing anger on social networking sites (SNS). This research used quantitative with multiple regression analysis methods. The samples in this study were 210 respondents who posted anger content on social networking sites, aged at least more than 18 years old. Obtained by non-probability sampling technique. In this study, researcher adapted and collected the data with four questionnaires; the anger-out scale is from STAXI measuring instrument, Big Five Inventory (BFI), Interpersonal Support Evaluation List, and collectivism-individualism. To test the validity of the instrument, researcher was using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). The results showed there was a significant difference from the type of big five, social, collectivism-individualism and anonymity to expressing anger on social networking sites by 18.6.AbstrakJejaring sosial menjadi tempat bagi seseorang untuk mengungkapkan perasaan. Salah satunya adalah perasaan marah, pengungkapan perasaan marah di media sosial bisa memberikan dampak buruk tidak hanya bagi individu yang mengunggah tetapi juga pengikutnya di jejaring sosial. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh tipe kepribadian big five, dukungan sosial, kolektivisme-individualisme dan anonimitas terhadap pengungkapan marah di jejaring sosial. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode analisis regresi berganda. Sampel pada penelitian ini berjumlah 210 responden pengunggah perasaan marah di jejaring sosial yang berusia 18 tahun keatas. Diperoleh dengan teknik non-probability sampling. Dalam penelitian ini peneliti mengadaptasi dan memodifikasi instrument pengumpulan data yaitu skala anger-out dalam alat ukur STAXI, Big Five Inventory (BFI), Interpersonal Support Evaluation List, dan kolektivisme-individualisme. Uji validitas instrument dilakukan dengan menggunakan Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada pengaruh yang signifikan dari tipe kepribadian big five, dukungan sosial, kolektivisme-individualisme dan anonimitas terhadap pengungkapan marah di jejaring sosial yakni sebesar 18,6%. Dari keempat variabel besar tersebut, peneliti mengukur masing-masing pengaruh dimensi tiap variabel. Ditemukan bahwa terdapat tiga dimensi yang memiliki nilai koefisien regresi signifikan, yaitu: neuroticism dalam kepribadian, tangible support dalam dukungan sosial, individualisme dan faktor demografi jenis kelamin.Penulis berharap dari hasil penelitian ini dapat dikaji dan dikembangkan kembali pada penelitian selanjutnya. Misalnya dengan menambahkan variabel lain yang terkait dengan pengungkapan marah di jejaring sosial, seperti status sosial atau norma kelompok dengan paparan perilaku agresif.
