The concept of Big Five Personality Model are the traits

of personality which are taken from psychology. It is a


theoretical framework in which to understand general
components of our personality that seem to be the most
important in our social and interpersonal interactions with
others. The Big Five factors are openness,
conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and
neuroticism. Acronyms commonly used to refer to the five
traits collectively are OCEAN. It is important to note that
each of the five personality factors represents a range
between two extremes. In the real world, most people lie
somewhere in between the two polar ends of each
dimension.
Openness:
It addresses ones range of interests. Extremely open
people are fascinated by novelty & innovation. They are
willing to listen to new ideas & to change their own ideas,
beliefs & attitudes in response to new information.

Conscientiousness:
It refers to the number of goals that a person focuses on a
highly conscientious person focuses on relatively few
goals at one time.

self-disciplined, achievement oriented.
A person with a low conscientious nature tends to focus
on a higher number of goals at one time disorganised,
careless, irresponsible.

Extraversion:
It reflects a persons comfort level with relationships.
They are sociable, talkative, assertive & open to
establishing new relationship
Introverts are less sociable, less talkative, less assertive.
Agreeableness:
It refers to a persons ability to get along with others.
Highly agreeable people value harmony more than they
value having their say or their way. They are cooperative
and trusting of others.
