About the Big Five & BFI-10
The Big Five (OCEAN) is the most widely-validated trait-personality model in academic psychology. It identifies five broadly stable dimensions that emerge from factor-analysing how people describe themselves and others: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism. Sources: Goldberg 1990, JPSP 59(6):1216-1229; John, Naumann & Soto 2008, Handbook of Personality.
The BFI-10 (Rammstedt & John 2007, J Research in Personality 41:203-212) is a 10-item ultra-brief Big Five inventory designed for time-constrained surveys. Trade-offs vs longer instruments: lower per-trait reliability (Cronbach's α ~0.5–0.7 vs 0.8+ for full BFI-44), but ~80% retention of the factor structure. Best used for quick screening; longer instruments give better single-person estimates.
Scoring on this wiki uses a continuous 0–100 slider per trait. Bands (Low < 30, Average 30–70, High > 70) are descriptive, not clinical thresholds. The Big Five model does not yield diagnostic categories.
