  • Assessing the Five‐Factor Model of Personality Description

    Open AccessStephen Briggs, Stephen R BriggsARTICLEJournal of Personality1992

    Several approaches to assessing the dimensions of the five‐factor model are reviewed and evaluated. The items in the assessment instrument may be adjectives or phrases, and the instrument itself may have been developed specifically to measure the five factors or may have been reinterpreted in terms of the five‐factor model. Data are presented comparing an adjective‐based measure of the model (Goldberg, 1990) with two phrase‐based measures (Costa …

  • Shyness and physical attractiveness in mixed-sex dyads

    Stella Garcia, Linda Stinson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality and Social…1991Cited by: 16

    Male and female strangers' shyness and physical attractiveness strongly affected their own and their partners' behavior during initial, unstructured interactions. First, dyad-level measures of behavioral involvement and perceived interaction quality were independently predicted by the men's shyness and the women's physical attractiveness. Second, shy men exerted avoidant control over mutual gazing by denying their female partners (but not themsel…

  • The role of factor analysis in the development and evaluation of personality scales

    Open AccessStephen Briggs, Stephen R Briggs et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality1986

    The purpose of this paper is to examine the usefulness of factor analysis in developing and evaluating personality scales that measure limited domain constructs The approach advocated follows from several assumptions that a single scale ought to measure a single construct, that factor analysis ought to be applied routinely to new personality scales, and that the factors of a scale are important if it can be demonstrated that they are differential…

  • Shyness: Conceptualization and measurement

    Warren H Jones, Stephen Briggs et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality and Social…1986Cited by: 11

    The concept of shyness and its measurement were investigated in a series of studies (total N = 1,687). Data collection and analysis proceeded in three phases: the revision and continued development of a measure of shyness, the Social Reticence Scale; a psychometric comparison among five measures of shyness; and an examination of the factor structure underlying the construct of shyness. Phase 1 assessed the reliability and validity of the Social R…

  • An analysis of the Self-Monitoring Scale

    Stephen Briggs, Stephen R Briggs et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality and Social…1980Cited by: 34

    A factor analysis of the Self-Monitoring Scale yielded three replicated factors: Acting, Extraversion, and Other-Directedness. Acting includes being good at and liking to speak and entertain. Other-Directedness is a willingness to change one's behavior to suit other people, and Extraversion is self-explanat ory. OtherDirectedness correlates positively with Shyness and Neuroticism and negatively with Self-Esteem. Extraversion correlates negatively…
