Richard A. Depue on Personality Traits - Dictionary of Arguments
Corr I 329 Personality traits/Depue: Depue has typically operationalized his constructs with the Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire (MPQ) (Tellegen 1982)(1). The MPQ scales of Social Potency and and Social Closeness, used to represent Agentic Extraversion and Affiliation respectively, both load primarily on Extraversion (Markon, Krueger and Watson 2005)(2). Depue associates Anxiety most strongly with the MPQ Stress Reaction scale, which is a clear marker of Neuroticism. Fear he associates with MPQ Harm Avoidance, which, unlike Cloninger’s Harm Avoidance, specifically assesses aversion to physical danger and is not well described by the Big Five (Markon et al. 2005)(2). >Conscientiousness/Depue, >Five-Factor Model/Depue, >Extraversion/Depue, >Personality traits/Depue. 1.
