The principal aim of this chapter is to investigate the validity and the generalized applicability of the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) across three different countries and languages. These countries represent West Slavic branches of the Indo-European languages. We first examine the psychometric characteristics of the NEO-FFI (reliabilities, factor structure of the items, and congruence coefficients). Next, we compare four instruments proposed to measure the five personality dimensions, namely the NEO Five-Factor Inventory, the Five-Factor Personality Inventory, the Big Five Questionnaire, and the Czech Big Five Markers. We report data regarding their reliability and convergent and discriminant validity using multitrait-multimethod analysis and structural equation modeling. Finally, we compare Czech, Polish, and Slovak adolescents on the scales of the NEO-FFI. |
