Miller, Joshua D.; Gaughan, Eric T.; Maples, Jessica; Price, Joanna – Assessment, 2011
Despite being significantly correlated, there is evidence to suggest that the scales measuring Agreeableness from the Big Five Inventory (BFI) and the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R) do not capture identical constructs. More specifically, NEO PI-R Agreeableness contains content related to "honesty and humility" that is not…

Bowden, Stephen C.; Saklofske, Donald H.; Weiss, Lawrence G. – Assessment, 2011
Examination of measurement invariance provides a powerful method to evaluate the hypothesis that the same set of psychological constructs underlies a set of test scores in different populations. If measurement invariance is observed, then the same psychological meaning can be ascribed to scores in both populations. In this study, the measurement…
