Abstract
Exploratory factor analysis was used to combine the ten universal values of Schwartz's Values Survey with seven sub-facets of personality derived from the short scale Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Revised. A three-factor solution integrated the predominant themes of Schwartz's and Eysenck's models while a five-factor solution approximated the five-factor model of personality. In the threefactor solution, each factor was defined primarily by one of Eysenck's personality traits but excluded several of Schwartz's values. Nevertheless, the factors indicated by extraversion and psychoticism partially captured and rotated the two meta-dimensions underpinning Schwartz's circumplex model of values. Dimensions of openness, self-transcendence, neuroticism, disagreeableness and extraversion emerged in the five-factor solution, which was more inclusive of Schwartz's values.Measuring traits and values in conjunction, therefore, is not only possible, but potentially worthwhile; a personal values dimension may better operationalise an often unreliable and controversial psychoticism dimension. Although both the three-factor and five-factor solutions had some limitations, an integrated model of personality and values can be constructed to representhow people think and feel, and why they act in particular ways, without needing to differentiate between 'what people are like' and 'what people like', both of which express the same underlying personality.
