Abstract

The objective of the present study was to estimate gender differences among a sample of Egyptian college students (N = 2,188, age 20.3 ± 2.5 years). They responded to the Arabic Big-Five Personality Inventory (ABFPI). This inventory has acceptability to high internal consistency, temporal stability, and criterion-related validity. Based on the t test, all gender differences were statistically significant. Based on effect size (d), gender differences were significant in three out of the five factors as follows: Men obtained significantly higher mean total scores than women on Extraversion and Openness, whereas women had a significantly higher mean total score on Neuroticism than did their male peers. However, all the d values were small. It was concluded that gender differences in personality factors are real but small.
埃及大学生五大人格因素与性别差异
本研究的目的是估计埃及大学生样本(N = 2188,年龄20.3±2.5岁)的性别差异。他们回答了阿拉伯大五人格量表(ABFPI)。该量表具有高内部一致性、时间稳定性和标准相关效度的可接受性。经t检验,性别差异均有统计学意义。根据效应量(d),性别差异在五个因素中的三个方面具有显著性:男性在外向性和开放性方面的平均总分显著高于女性,而女性在神经质方面的平均总分显著高于男性同龄人。然而,所有的d值都很小。结论是,性格因素的性别差异是真实存在的,但很小。

期刊介绍: The Mankind Quarterly was founded as a quarterly journal of anthropology, in the broadest sense of "the science of man," in 1961. This was a time when the "study of man" had already diversified into physical anthropology, ethnography, quantitative cross-cultural research, archaeology and other subspecialties. Psychological and linguistic approaches were explored but the genetic study of population structure and population history was still in its infancy.
