title: Cloninger's temperament and character inventory and the NEO Five-Factor Inventory.
abstract: A principal axis factor analysis was performed jointly for the seven Temperament and Character Inventory scales and the five NEO Five-Factor Inventory scales, using 95 male and 109 female introductory psychology students. The five factors obtained were similar to the five major personality factors of Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness, and supported the comprehensiveness of the five-factor model of personality.
