Laufzeit: ab 01.04.2020

Kurzfassung


Right now, the FFM model (Costa & McCrae, 1992) is used to describe human behavior. It has proven to be of high validity and reliability in western(-ized) industrial countries (Costa & McCrae, 2014). The model cannot be called ‘false’, but rather incomplete in the face of different cultures (Gurven, von Rueden, Massenkoff, Kaplan & Lero Vie, 2013). Some areas of personality can be found in many cultures, whereas others, as social relational factors, are strongly influenced by...Right now, the FFM model (Costa & McCrae, 1992) is used to describe human behavior. It has proven to be of high validity and reliability in western(-ized) industrial countries (Costa & McCrae, 2014). The model cannot be called ‘false’, but rather incomplete in the face of different cultures (Gurven, von Rueden, Massenkoff, Kaplan & Lero Vie, 2013). Some areas of personality can be found in many cultures, whereas others, as social relational factors, are strongly influenced by cultural aspects and cannot be transferred (Church, 2000). Several cross-cultural studies have been conducted, like in the emic-etic SAPI project (Fetvadjiev et al., 2015), in order to develop an instrument to measure the personality structure specific for the South African culture. In our project, we want to investigate the personality structure in the Sub-Saharan African cultural context in Kenia. The project is theoretically based on a broader personality model (Echterhoff, 2013).
A questionnaire will be developed on the basis of existing personality items/ scales: 1. the SAPI scales (Fetvadjiev et al., 2015), 2. the dimensions of honesty / humility and emotionality used in the HEXACO-PI-R (Lee & Ashton, 2004). The validation of the model will include other personality features like: 1. the WHO-Five Well-being Index (1998 version), 2. the I-SEE (Greve Greve, Anderson & Krampen, 2001) to measure the Self-Efficacy and Externality and 3. parts of the Social Axioms Survey II (SAS II short – parsimonious model) (Leung et al., 2012).
The instrument will be developed and validated in a three-step research process with a quota sample of 435 adults working in SMEs in Kenia.
