Abstract

The Big Five Aspect Scales (BFAS) constitute a hierarchically structured self-report instrument measuring the Big Five and its ten aspects, which are empirically identified subdimensions occupying the level of personality between domains and facets. However, its 100 items may prevent its use in certain contexts and encourage responding with insufficient effort. A short form (BFAS-40) already exists but has several notable flaws. In the current study, we utilized ethnically diverse samples to develop the BFAS-short-balanced (BFAS-SB), a 40-item version of the BFAS with balanced keying across all aspect scales. We believe the BFAS-SB to be well-equipped to measure the trait hierarchy in samples diverse in ethnicity and education levels.
