About the Theory
Our Big Five personality assessment evaluates test takers on five key traits—interest (openness to experience), task-oriented (conscientiousness), people-oriented (agreeableness), extraversion, and sensitivity (emotional stability).
The Five Factor Model has become a globally recognised framework for understanding personality. Its broad applicability across cultures and industries makes it an essential tool for predicting job performance and assessing interpersonal fit, enabling organisations worldwide to make informed recruitment and talent development decisions.
Controlling for Social Desirability
Social desirability scales are used in work personality tests to measure whether a test taker is presenting themselves in an overly favourable light.
Lumenii measures two separate social desirability scales: impression management and self-deception.
By incorporating social desirability scales, Lumenii helps organisations gain a more accurate understanding of a candidate’s true behaviour.
