| dc.description.abstract | This dataset contains 2,818 trait descriptive adjectives in English and information about the extent to which each term is known among a large and approximately representative sample of U.S. adults. The list of personality-related terms includes all 1,710 adjectives previously studied by Goldberg (1982) and draws on prior work by Allport and Odbert (1936) and Norman (1967). The extent to which terms were known by respondents was based on the administration of vocabulary questions about each term-definition pair online to a sample of English-speaking U.S. residents with approximately average literacy levels. The open data are accompanied by an online database that allows the terms to be searched and filtered. | en_US |
| dc.description.sponsorship | As an extension of prior work on the lexical structure of personality descriptors, it is important to acknowledge that this resource builds on the substantial contributions of Gordon Allport, Henry Odbert, Warren Norman, Lew Goldberg, and the unnamed colleagues who assisted them. Citations to their work should be included, as appropriate, when these data are used. In addition, we gratefully acknowledge the guidance and feedback provided by Gerard Saucier, especially during the aggregation of terms | en_US |
