interested in knowing why you're not a fan of the big five—is it that model specifically or personality research in general?

Well, is it predictive of anything (meaningful)?
-
@jinxgoh B5 definitely predicts impt outcomes, e.g. see here http://www.annualreviews.org/doi/full/10.1146/annurev.psych.57.102904.190127 … & here http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1745-6916.2007.00047.x … -
I'l overgeneralise less next time. I was more irritated with the specific slides than I should have.

It wouldn't be Twitter any other way :)

usually people tagging people in my mentions doesn't end this well

`
@hardsci@beausievers@jinxgoh to clarify for@stuxnetsource I think what I linked to is misleading (at best) with resp to Facebook likes. -
maybe not pseudoscience but also not something that really shows these things go together

I didn't realise the big five wasn't legit, could you say more or point me to a link please?
-
It's pretty common knowledge so I don't know any specific link. What level/experitise do you require? https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=big%20five%20personality%20test%20criticism&rct=j …

Here's a hit from that search, if useful (did not check if OA, sorry, but obv sci-hub it if you want): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1635046

McAdams uses & advocates for Big Five, odd to cite him to back up a loaded label like "pseudoscience"
-
sorry was being kind of facetious and a little irritated. I take it back.
