Ten Aspects of the Big
Five
 BILLY COSBY

Perceive the differences between

men and women to be large – so
large, in fact, that communication
between genders may be difficult.

-BILLY COSBY
Men and women have obviously different biological roles
when it comes to propagation of the species, but how
much they differ psychologically is a more controversial
question, one that requires empirical research to answer
adequately.
Whether the underlying causes of
psychological gender differences are
evolutionary or socio-cultural,
understanding how men and women
differ in the ways in which they think,
feel, and behave can shed light on the
human condition.
The study of personality is particularly useful in attempting to examine
psychological differences between genders. Personality is often
conceptualized as the extent to which someone displays high or low
levels of specific traits. Traits are the consistent patterns of thoughts,
feelings, motives, and behaviors that a person exhibits across situation.
Gender differences in personality traits are often characterized
in terms of which gender has higher scores on that trait, on
average. For example, women are often found to be more
agreeable than men (Feingold, 1994; Costa et al., 2001). This
means that women, on average, are more nurturing, tender-
minded, and altruistic more often and to a greater extent than
men.

important to our understanding of general human
variation, though it is not without controversy.
 Gender differences in big five
personality traits
Gender differences research has also proven to
be controversial, with much of the debate
concerning the causes and precursors of
differences. 
Neuroticism
Describes the tendency to
experience negative emotion
and related processes in
response to perceived threat
and punishment; these include
anxiety, depression, anger, self-
consciousness, and emotional
lability. 
Agreeableness

altruism, such as empathy and kindness.
Agreeableness involves the tendency
toward cooperation, maintenance of
social harmony, and consideration of the
concerns of others
Agreeableness

victimization of others). Women
consistently score higher than men on
Agreeableness and related measures,
such as tender-mindedness
Conscientiousness
Conscientiousness describes traits related to self-
discipline, organization, and the control of impulses,
and appears to reflect the ability to exert self-control
in order to follow rules or maintain goal pursuit.
Women score somewhat higher than men on some
facets of Conscientiousness, such as order,
dutifulness, and self-discipline.
Extraversion
●
Reflects sociability, assertiveness, and positive emotionality,
all of which have been linked to sensitivity to
rewards .Whereas gender differences are small on the
overall domain level of Extraversion (with women typically
scoring higher), the small effect size could be due to the
existence of gender differences in different directions at the
facet level. 
 Openness/Intellect

Imagination, creativity, intellectual curiosity,

and appreciation of esthetic experiences.
Broadly, openness/intellect relates to the ability
and interest in attending to and processing
complex stimuli.
Openness/Intellect
● No significant gender differences are typically found on
openness/intellect at the domain level, likely due to the
divergent content of the trait.

● For example, women have been found to score higher than

men on the facets of Esthetics and Feelings
