The purpose of our study was to present a personality profile, based on data from the Comrey Personality Scales (CPS), for a diverse, Russian sample. The CPS was administered to 457 subjects drawn from convenience samples throughout St. Petersburg, Russia. In Part 1 of the study, the structure of the Russian sample's personality was identified. Data from the CPS were factor analyzed. Findings showed strong support for the generalizability of Comrey's (1970) eight-factor personality taxonomy to this sample. The CPS's factors derived from the Russians were compared and found to be similar in structure to samples derived from American, Australian, Brazilian, Israeli, Italian, and New Zealand samples. In Part 2, mean differences on the CPS's scales between the Russian sample and the American sample were assessed. Results showed that although the structure of the Russians' personality was similar to that of the Americans' personality, significant differences in the elevation of scale scores did exist. For example, as a whole, the Russians tended to be more defensive, lethargic, egocentric, and unstable. Contrary to popular expectations, however, the Russians were not more conforming.
我们研究的目的是基于康瑞尔人格量表（CPS）的数据，呈现一个多样化的俄罗斯样本的人格概况。CPS被施用于从俄罗斯圣彼得堡各地便利样本中抽取的457名受试者。在研究的第一部分，确定了俄罗斯样本的人格结构。对CPS的数据进行了因子分析。结果表明，康瑞尔（1970）的八因素人格分类法对该样本具有很强的通用性。将源自俄罗斯人的CPS因子与源自美国、澳大利亚、巴西、以色列、意大利和新西兰样本的因子进行比较，发现其结构相似。在第二部分中，评估了俄罗斯样本和美国样本在CPS量表上的均值差异。结果表明，尽管俄罗斯人的人格结构与美国人的人格结构相似，但量表得分的高低确实存在显著差异。例如，总体而言，俄罗斯人往往更具防御性、慵懒、以自我为中心且不稳定。然而，与普遍预期相反的是，俄罗斯人并没有更顺从。
