| Summary: | The present study aims to investigate the applicability of the Big Five model of personality traits in Sundanese adolescents and examine the psychometric properties of the Indonesian Big Five Inventory (BFI). A sample of 247 Sundanese adolescents aged 13-14 years old was involved. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) revealed that the Big Five structure existed in the Sundanese adolescent personality structure, adding evidence of the universality of the Big Five. CFA results also supported the construct validity of the Indonesian BFI particularly those related to the structural aspect. Reliability analyses using Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) and Construct Reliability (CR) coefficient suggested that only the internal consistencies of the Extraversion, Conscientiousness, and Neuroticism scales of the Indonesian BFI were satisfactory. According to the values of item factor loadings, only the Neuroticism scale showed relatively good psychometric properties. Most of the inter-factor correlations were found to be higher than the acceptable level. Further psychometric evaluations are still required before the Indonesian BFI can be administered to the Sundanese adolescents. |
