Description | This study is concerned with the typological approach for studying personality. We deal with the question of whether the three major personality prototypes (Resilient, Overcontrolled, and Undercontrolled) can be replicated in the Czech sample. Cluster structure in self-rating based on the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI-R) was examined in a sample of 2279 Czech subjects aged from 14 to 83 years. The highest replicability was identified for the three-cluster solutions (median kappa coefficient 0,83), but the four-cluster solution was replicated as well (median kappa coefficient 0,76). The first type in the three-cluster solution (N = 770) was characterized by high scores on Neuroticism and Openess to Experience and low score on Conscientiousness, whereas scores on Extravesrsion and Agreeableness were average. The second type (N = 755) had primarily low scores on Openess to Experience and Extraversion, low scores on Neuroticism and Agreeableness were also detected, whereas score on Conscientiousness was average. Finally, the third type (N = 763) was characterized by low score on Neuroticism and high scores on all other scales. Only the Resilient prototypes could be clearly replicated in the three-cluster solution, whereas typical Big Five patterns of the Overcontrolled and Undercontrolled prototypes mixed into two types. |
