THE BIG 5 PERSONALITY MODEL

Big 5 or the OCEAN Model cover five basic human personality traits (regardless of language or culture) derived from a statistical analysis of traits that co-occur in people’s descriptions of themselves or other people.
Behavioral genetics research has established that BIG 5 traits have a nearly 50% genetic influence.
