International Personality Item Pool - Five Factor Model 50
(IPIP-Big 5)
Self-report psychometric instrument for measuring personality traits
(30). It consists of 50 sentences which are categorized into five
factors (Neuroticism, Conscientiousness, Receptiveness to experiences,
Agreeableness, Extraversion). Each category contains 10 sentences.
Scoring is done on a scale of 1 to 5 (1= Not at all representative, 5=
Very representative) and results are grouped into separate scores for
the five factors. The Greek translation by Dr. Maria Bakola is
considered a reliable and valid measure with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.88
(31). This tool is open access, since it is available on the authors’
website (https://ipip.ori.org).
