Openness stands for openness for experience. People high on openness enjoy adventure and are naturally curious – physically, emotionally and psychologically. Their motto is that variety is the spice of life. People low on openness are happier sticking to routine and find safety in predictability.
Conscientiousness. People high on this are organized and have a sense of duty. They are dependable, disciplined, and achievement focussed. They will plan and will generally not be impulsive. People low in conscientiousness will be spontaneous and freewheeling.
Extraversion: The more a person is an extravert the more he or she is chatty, sociable and draws energy from the crowds. They would be assertive and cheerful in social interactions. Introverts love plenty of alone time, and they aren’t shy but prefer solo or small group activities.
Agreeableness: This measures the extent of a person’s warmth and kindness. The more someone is on the scale, the more likely the person is to be trusting, helpful and compassionate. The opposite is not necessarily cold or calculating but a measured approach to situations.
Neuroticism: The degree to which people routinely slip into anxieties (real or imagined). People high on the attribute tend to easily find things to worry about.
