This study found the Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI) measures four of the five factors from the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI), aligning well with Neuroticism, Extraversion, Conscientiousness, and Agreeableness.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Personality Psychology
  • Psychometrics

Background:

  • The five-factor model (FFM) is a widely accepted framework for personality structure.
  • The Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI) measures interpersonal behaviors.
  • Assessing the alignment between different personality inventories enhances construct validity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between the Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI) and the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI).
  • To determine how well the ISI scales map onto the domain measures of the five-factor model.
  • To validate the ISI's measurement of personality constructs.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a sample of 236 college students.
  • Administered both the Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI) and the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI).

  • Performed principal component analysis with Varimax rotation on combined scale scores.

    • Main Results:

    • Identified five higher-order factors consistent with theoretical expectations.
    • Found that Neuroticism, Extraversion, Conscientiousness, and Agreeableness were well-defined by both inventories.
    • Observed that Openness to Experience was represented in the ISI by Independence and Directiveness, forming its Autonomy dimension.

    Conclusions:

    • The Interpersonal Style Inventory (ISI) effectively measures four of the five major personality factors assessed by the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI).
    • The ISI's Autonomy dimension captures aspects of Openness to Experience.
    • Results support the convergent validity of the ISI in relation to the established five-factor model.
