We examined properties of culture-level personality traits in ratings of targets (N=5,109) ages 12 to 17 in 24 cultures. Aggregate scores were generalizable across gender, age, and relationship groups and showed convergence with culture-level scores from previous studies of self-reports and observer ratings of adults, but they were unrelated to national character stereotypes. Trait profiles also showed cross-study agreement within most cultures, 8 of which had not previously been studied. Multidimensional scaling showed that Western and non-Western cultures clustered along a dimension related to Extraversion. A culture-level factor analysis replicated earlier findings of a broad Extraversion factor but generally resembled the factor structure found in individuals. Continued analysis of aggregate personality scores is warranted.
我们考察了 24 个文化中年龄在 12 到 17 岁的目标人物(N=5109)的文化层个性特征的属性。综合得分在性别、年龄和关系群体上具有可推广性,并且与先前对成人自我报告和观察者评分的文化层分数具有一致性,但与民族性格刻板印象无关。在大多数文化中,特征分析也显示出跨研究的一致性,其中 8 个文化之前没有研究过。多维尺度分析显示,西方和非西方文化沿着与外向性有关的维度聚类。文化层因素分析复制了先前关于广泛的外向性因素的发现,但通常与个体中发现的因素结构相似。对综合个性评分的进一步分析是合理的。
