Development of the heteronormative attitudes and beliefs scale (2015, background): “See Schlichter (2007) and Seidman (2009) for relevant feminist, queer and lesbian theoretical discourse.”
Relations between personality and coping: a meta-analysis. (2007, background): “Although this is to some extent measure specific and linked to individual response biases (Biesanz & West, 2004; Saucier, 2002), two higher order personality factors have been identified that are similar across cultures and measures (Blackburn, Renwick, Donnelly, & Logan, 2004; Digman, 1997; DeYoung”
The personality‐identity interplay in emerging adult women: convergent findings from complementary analyses (2006, background): “Costa and McCrae’s (1992) Big Five claims to represent the five basic factors that organize human traits (Dollinger & Orf, 1991; Saucier, 2002).”
Implementing a five-factor personality inventory for use on the internet (2005, background): “This is clearly desirable in measures that are supposed to represent orthogonal constructs, as the domains of the Five-Factor Model are held to be (Saucier, 2002).”
A lexical investigation of the lower-order structure of conscientiousness. (2004, background): “Rather this component may be something akin to what Saucier (2002) would describe as a ‘‘parcel’’—a small cluster of items so semantically similar that they are best aggregated into one score.”
Presidential Paper Doing it all Bass-Ackwards: The development of hierarchical factor structures from the top down (2006, background): “However, orthogonal factor scores have the advantage of parsimony when used in multiple-regression analyses to predict any important criteria (Goldberg, 1993), and they encourage the development of factor markers that are maximally unrelated to each other (Saucier, 2002).”
The mini-IPIP scales: tiny-yet-effective measures of the Big Five factors of personality. (2006, methodology): “Fortunately, Saucier (2002) demonstrated that this overlap was largely an accidental by-product of scale development techniques that place a premium on maximizing reliability and illustrated that it is possible to create orthogonal and valid measures of the Big Five.”
THE STRUCTURE OF CONSCIENTIOUSNESS: AN EMPIRICAL INVESTIGATION BASED ON SEVEN MAJOR PERSONALITY QUESTIONNAIRES (2005, methodology): “Most of the previous psycholexical research focused on creating marker sets for the Big Five (see Saucier, 2002 for a discussion) or on creating or maintaining a list of adjectives that was cross-culturally valid (e.g., Saucier & Ostendorf, 1999).”
Refining the relationship between personality and subjective well-being. (2008, background): “Consistent with Saucier’s (2002) research, these findings suggest that the dimensions are not completely orthogonal for the NEO, EPQ or EPI inventories.”
Conscientiousness and Health across the Life Course (2005, unknown): “Most of the previous psycholexical research has focused on creating marker sets for the Big Five (see Saucier, 2002, for a discussion) or on creating or maintaining a list of adjectives that are cross-culturally valid (e.g., Saucier & Ostendorf, 1999).”
Higher-order factors of the Big Five in a multi-informant sample. (2006, background): “One likely exception that should be noted is the orthogonal marker sets developed by Saucier (2002), which yield orthogonal Big Five scores in single-informant ratings.”
The effects of customer personality traits on the display of positive emotions (2004, background): “The secondary traits underlying agreeableness are kindness, warmth, sympathy, and sensitivity (Saucier, 2002).”
Conflict and well-being at work: The moderating role of personality (2005, unknown): “Past validation studies have shown good to excellent reliability for the sub-scale measuring agreeableness (Hendriks et al., 1995; Saucier, 2002).”
