自从卡特尔使用英语特质术语开始制定他的“人格描述”以来的 45 年里，许多研究人员提出了一种基于 5 个正交因素的替代结构。这个五因素模型的通用性在这里通过异常全面的特征术语集得到了证明。在 3 项研究中的第一项中，分析了分为 75 个簇的 1,431 个特质形容词；在 10 次重复中出现了几乎相同的结构，每次都基于不同的因子分析程序。第二项研究将 479 个常用术语分为 133 个同义词簇，揭示了 2 个自我评分样本和 2 个同行评分样本中的相同结构。第 5 个因素之外的因素都没有在所有样本中得到推广。在第三项研究中，对源自 339 个性状术语的 100 个聚类的分析表明它们在未来研究中作为大五标记的潜在用途。
In the 45 years since Cattell used English trait terms to begin the formulation of his “description of personality,” a number of investigators have proposed an alternative structure based on 5 orthogonal factors. The generality of this 5-factor model is here demonstrated across unusually comprehensive sets of trait terms. In the first of 3 studies, 1,431 trait adjectives grouped into 75 clusters were analyzed; virtually identical structures emerged in 10 replications, each based on a different factor-analytic procedure. A 2nd study of 479 common terms grouped into 133 synonym clusters revealed the same structure in 2 samples of self-ratings and in 2 samples of peer ratings. None of the factors beyond the 5th generalized across the samples. In the 3rd study, analyses of 100 clusters derived from 339 trait terms suggest their potential utility as Big-Five markers in future studies.
