Resumo: | The present paper discusses the evaluative nature of the traits of the big-five model and investigates the validity of the Personal Characteristics Inventory by analysing its factor structure. The sample is provided by 716 primary- and secondary-school students from a private school in Belo Horizonte. An Exploratory Factor Analysis is undertaken with extraction by means of the maximum likelihood method and Geomin rotation. We also used Cronbach’s alpha and the factor determination index and criteria were stipulated for the items’ elimination. The factor selected from the various solutions obtained was the eight-factor structure (F²=345.39, df=163, Comparative Fit Index=0.99, root mean square error of approximation=0.04, standardised root mean square residual=0.02). The eight traits identified are: openness to new experiences, extroversion, changeability, stability, focus on human relationships, introversion, focus on the object and focus on the goal. The factor alphas ranged from 0.59 to 0.80 and the factor determination index ranged from 0.80 to 0.92. The implications of these results are subsequently discussed |

Fizeram parte da amostra 716 estudantes do ensino fundamental e médio de uma escola particular de Belo Horizonte. Foi empregada a Análise Fatorial Exploratória, com extração pelo método da máxima verossimilhança e rotação Geomin. Foram empregados o alfa de Cronbach e o índice de determinação do fator. Foram estipulados critérios para a eliminação de itens. A solução escolhida entre as diversas obtidas foi aquela com oito fatores (F²=345,39, gl=163, índice comparativo de ajuste=0,99, raiz quadrada média do erro de aproximação=0,04, raiz quadrática média residual estandartizada=0,02). Os oito traços identificados são: abertura a novas experiências, extroversão, mutabilidade, estabilidade, foco em relações humanas, introversão, foco no objeto e foco no objetivo. O alfa dos fatores variou de 0,59 a 0,80, e a determinação do fator variou de 0,80 a 0,92.
