Overlap between General Factors of Personality in the Big Five, Giant Three, and trait emotional intelligence
نویسندگان
چکیده
We extracted General Factors of Personality (GFPs) from inventories based on the Big Five model and on Eysenck’s Giant Three model within one sample (N = 274). The GFPs from the two inventories showed considerable overlap, ranging from .52 to .67 (in absolute values). The mean intercorrelation was r = .60. Moreover, the GFPs showed strong overlap with measures of trait emotional intelligence (rmean = .72). These correlations remained substantial even after we controlled for social desirability bias. Overall, the pattern of results supports the notion of the GFP as a construct that is consistent across different measures and that is closely related to the construct of trait emotional intelligence. 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

The location of trait emotional intelligence in personality factor space.
The construct of trait emotional intelligence (trait EI or trait emotional self-efficacy) provides a comprehensive operationalization of emotion-related self-perceptions and dispositions. In the first part of the present study (N=274, 92 males), we performed two joint factor analyses to determine the location of trait EI in Eysenckian and Big Five factor space. The results showed that trait EI ...
متن کاملTrait emotional intelligence anchored within the Big Five, Big Two and Big One frameworks
This paper investigates the relationship between trait emotional intelligence (trait EI) and the Big Five factors, the Big Two and the Big One (i.e., General Factor of Personality; GFP). Comprehensive measures of trait EI (TEIQue) and the Big Five (NEO-PI-R) were applied to a sample of 289 university students (170 female). As expected by the trait EI theory, part of the construct’s variance was...
متن کاملRelationships between trait emotional intelligence and the Big Five in the Netherlands
We investigated the relationships between trait emotional intelligence (trait EI; TEIQue-SF) and the Big Five personality dimensions (NEO-FFI) in two Dutch samples. Results were consistent with studies conducted with the full forms of the inventories in North America and Britain. Neuroticism was the strongest correlate of trait EI in both samples, followed by Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Ag...

متن کاملOverlap between the general factor of personality and emotional intelligence: A meta-analysis.
We examine the relationship between the general factor of personality (GFP) and emotional intelligence (EI) and specifically test the hypothesis that the GFP is a social effectiveness factor overlapping conceptually with EI. Presented is an extensive meta-analysis in which the associations between the GFP, extracted from the Big Five dimensions, with various EI measures is examined. Based on a ...
