About the OCEAN Assessment

The OCEAN model (also called the "Big Five" or "Five-Factor Model") measures five core dimensions of personality:

  • Openness to experience - Imagination, curiosity, and creativity
  • Conscientiousness - Organization, responsibility, and reliability
  • Extraversion - Sociability, assertiveness, and emotional expressiveness
  • Agreeableness - Compassion, respect, and trust toward others
  • Neuroticism - Tendency toward negative emotions and stress sensitivity

This scientifically validated assessment has been used in psychological research since the 1950s. Scores reflect where individuals fall on each dimension relative to the general population.

The OCEAN model is considered the gold standard in personality research, with decades of scientific evidence supporting its consistency and predictive validity across cultures and contexts.
