Ten-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI), ready to run

A very brief 10-item measure of the Big Five personality dimensions (Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Emotional Stability, Openness), with two items per dimension. Intended for use when brevity is essential; sacrifices internal consistency for breadth.

10 items · 5 sections · 7-point Likert scale
