Similarities and Differences in Implicit Personality Concepts across Ethnocultural Groups in South Africa (2013, methodology): “Lexical studies have been used both to identify dimensions beyond the Big Five (e.g., Lee & Ashton, 2008) and to identify the most replicable personality dimensions (De Raad et al., 2010).”
The General Factor of Personality (GFP) as social effectiveness: Review of the literature. (2016, background): “De Raad et al. (2010) conducted a large-scale per- sonality study with 14 trait taxonomies in 12 languages.”
The HEXACO Honesty-Humility, Agreeableness, and Emotionality Factors (2014, background): “De Raad et al. (2010) conducted a series of pairwise comparisons between personality factor solutions of various languages and suggested that only three personality factors were fully replicable across languages.”
The Questionnaire Big Six in 26 Nations: Developing Cross–Culturally Applicable Big Six, Big Five and Big Two Inventories (2014, background): “However, De Raad et al. (2010) argue that the Honesty dimension should rightly be considered part of Agreeableness, in part based on their interpretation of Ashton and Lee (2007) that two of the six facets of NEO-PI-R A are Honesty related.”
Toward a Theory of the Big Five (2010, background): “(The six-factor model that is a potential alternative to the Big Five simply divides two subtraits within Agreeableness and can therefore be subsumed by the Big Five conceptually; De Raad et al., 2010; DeYoung, Quilty, & Peterson, 2007; McCrae & Costa, 2008).”
The Circumplex of Personality Metatraits: A Synthesizing Model of Personality Based on the Big Five (2014, methodology): “…2009; DeYoung, 2006; Saucier, 2008), this still requires empirical evidence because the results of existing studies are not unequivocal (De Raad & Barelds, 2008; De Raad et al., 2010; Gorbaniuk et al., 2013; Saucier, 2008; Saucier et al., 2005; Saucier et al., 2014), possibly for three reasons.”
Cybernetic Big Five Theory. (2015, background): “…the Big Five across languages (Ashton et al., 2004), this solution is not very different from the Big Five because the major change is merely to split Agreeableness into two factors, one blended with elements of Neuroticism (De Raad et al., 2010; DeYoung, Quilty, & Peterson, 2007; Saucier, 2009).”
