Giving Entire Cultures a Personality Test



Summary

There are a lot of different stereotypes made up to describe different nations and personality traits that they have.

What is more, the study was made to determine most common personality characteristics that people could name when talking about their own nation. Fifty different cultures were involved in the study. People were administrated the Revised NEO Personality Inventory test that helped to determine national character.

Furthermore, clear conclusions were made from the study. Research showed that people from a given culture had not had any problem in describing intercultural national character. Although national character did not quite fit the stereotype that most people have about certain countries.

All in all, it is clear that people within the culture might see different personality characteristics that best describe that nation, than people from other cultures.
