2017 Personality 14: Introduction to Traits/Psychometrics/The Big 5

In this lecture, I begin discussing the development of modern trait theory. Psychologists, expert in measurement and statistics, discovered extraversion, neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness and openness to experience, and began the process of delineating their social significance and biological underpinnings.

I'm happy so see a nicely balanced point of view on those lectures. I don't get what people find special about these lectures. I've watched them carefully and I don't see why this is any better then just getting an average book on differential psychology. You'll find there the same information and with way more caveats than Peterson presents here. I really miss all the exceptions and caveats you need to make since scientific knowledge is by far not as settled as Peterson presents it. Yes, the big 5 traits are useful, robust and so on. Everything correct, but there is still a huge scientific discussion going on one shouldn't ignore at a serious university level… At least in Germany, our average psychology students have a more complex view on the psychology of personality after their second or third semester than what is presented here in the lecture… But I totally respect your opinion on how he makes things coherent which I assume many professors don't manage since they are often bad lecturers.

[@Celestiona]

I'm not a troll or trying to pick a fight with you; what I'm about to say will most likely be taken negatively instead of constructively.. That being said .. "To be Honest" - How ideal to start that as just that has so many implications of not being honest or from an honest person that it's literally in legal guides as words to avoid and why. I'm not taking the time to provide links for this Because I'm not exaggerating. I'm sure anyone will easily find the information with little effort on their part. Now for the rest. [Personally Note I don't have a good or bad opinion of the man & I don't follow his work to form my own actual opinion of him professionally.] The comment you gave is an empty compliment filled with empty insights and I say this because: if they were genuine, they'd be followed with at least one direct personal reason of why the person believes such. Everything there is pretty empty compliments without basis like adverts for spam sites. Big pretty meaningful words with absolutely nothing there that indicates outside of your personal self to others if any of it is genuinely meant beyond looking like an intellectual. AGAIN Literally not ONE good example of why your compliments are there. If you think I'm not very nice for this, note that bit on "what most intro into psychology classes cover" is probably the only bit of this I can tell you is up in the air as we are all just human no ones flawless. That implying of YOU KNOW FACTUALLY what you're speaking of when it at least comes to beginning to introductory psychology SETS UP AN EXPECTATION for someone reading to see examples of why they should also share that view. If it was only you personally complimenting him aloud - you'd still be expected by anyone listening or reading to explain why you think thats still. Why? Because we don't live in a world without posers, self inflating behaviors with alternative intentions outside of whats said at the time, Psychological disorders, and Intense Personality Traits. Im sure I made my point clear on the why and if I need to be more specific I'll do it now - Disgenuine people are always something everyone will encounter, find themselves influenced by in life at least once (unless they're somehow able to be under a rock for real from birth to death without any other person ever interacting with them). So to shorten this novel up - For someone trying to pitch an intellectually complimenting view of the Man here - you more made yourself look better only by giving those vague but attentive sounding compliments. I'm not a professional in the field of Psychology. I'm a hobbiest with a passion as well as a regular patient throughout life. I don't tend to use what is on average referred to jestingly as "fancy" vocabulary; I understand it very well however despite my lack of adoption. This is My genuine insight on your insight on the speaker in the video. (I haven't retained his name to memory yet). Do you notice at all that I explained why I had my opinion for the judgments i was making l far less vaguely than you (yaboighadi) had with whats supposed to be your "honest" opinion of the gentleman in question? Opinions need the judgments that formed them, and being that vague on those too is nothing but a red flag for someone aware in a conversation. Another way I can describe it is it's words without sustenance. In any case there's no way to put it in a "nice" way because nice is JUST being intentionally ignorant of reality in hopes "to keep the peace" in interactions. These "judgmental explanations" I've given on my judgments of your post "YaBoighandi" however are there ONLY because of social psychology/profiling.. hell you could find a hanful in just those "how to know if someone's lying to you" vids that retired fbi/government profilers share freely.

@@hkl103 You know the saying 'think how dumb the average person is, now imagine that half of the population is even dumber' what makes you think that any one of us has picked a book on psychology? Furthermore don't you think that there may be a lot of selfishness involved in worshiping of Jordan Peterson? Think of it this way I, an individual love listening to Jordan Peterson, one of greatest thinkers of our time (interesting assessment, it would be logical to assume that the person stating that has a leaderboard of great thinkers of our times and, furthermore could prolly compare them with some thinkers from the past...while my inner pessimist is dead convinced that J.P. is the only current thinker the person knows, or one of the few) his words of invite wisdom bring peace and joy to my soul, enlighten my darkest nights with fire of knowledge. I'm glad to have intellect capable of comprehending what this great individual preaches" point i'm making here is that I believe there is a lot of self praise in stating that the people you surround yourself with, whether in real life or online, people who are intelligent, because if you weren't intelligent yourself you wouldn't get a thing they're saying. Furthermore you apear to be surprised by human stupidity in year 2021, in a year where people are willing to pay premium for apple products which in terms of raw performance are usually worse than other state of the art devices for quarter of the prices less, and the only cause of that is (I believe) marketing (brand loyalty maybe too? Idek, as a feeble man that I am I think its just marketing) so I don't really get why people wouldn't fall for marketing here too, not saying JP is a sellout bu he sure as hell does sell better than other 'intellectuals', just like apple products, he's more appealing. Also regarding human stupidity a decent chunk of my generation appears to be honestly sold on the social issues giant companies 'discuss'. I mean I too would trust people who exploit child labour and value profits over anything to lecture me about social issues, who wouldn't. Honestly if Hitler and Stalin were alive today they would stand and marvel and the propaganda/brainwashing machines we have in place now, at my workplace there people saying that "THE GOVERNEMNT IS EXPIREMENTING ON OUR DNA WITH THE NEWEST VACCINES!" and in the same launch break someone, unironically was reading out loud and article which said that 'everybody whos vaccinated will be dead withing 6 months', so there's that. You want to be astonished by personality cults? Google Paul Joseph Watson (or his second channel "anything goes") and tell me how in god's name did this guy get any following, only thing he does is shout at the camera and then bundle a bunch of random events with self provided explanation and build a narrative that he pulled out of his own ass. Sorry for the long answer but I just wanted to say what I think about this, I find this staggering too however not in case of JP, he's generally a good guy from what I see but people such as Steven Crowder, Ben Shapiro or Paul Joseph Watson, the fact that these have a following, despite being blatant liars is what amazes me, hope you find this atleast somewhat helpful, I don't really have difficulties figuring out 'how are/were we so stupid?' when we take into account... I wanted to say 'the fact' but I will stick with 'scientific consensus', that apes are our relatives. Have a great day and I'm looking forward to your reply, ausfiedersehn! ... or however you type that.

17:45 "Your capacity to expand your abilities past the initial constraints of your biological temperament is something like the development of character and wisdom. It expands the domain of your competence. Naturally,when you are born, you are set at a certain place with some range around it, and as you grow and mature, if you choose to develop your ability, you can expand that range, even though the place at which you are set doesn't move that much" (so basically everyone has a natural mode at which they operate and a certain area within which they can expand and grow. You can cover a wider range and move around between the 2 ends, but your natural mode, or your comfort zone, will most likely, more or less stay the same.) 19:59 your underlying fundamental psychological traits determine or influence your value structures and tend to set your goals 20:43 traits are patterns of behaviour. You can extract out personality by looking at people's microactions as well 21:40 how people choose to define their biography and characterize their lives shows what they value and thus, what traits they have. Because the higher you are (score) on a given trait, the higher you value the opportunities associated with it 23:02 your personality is the melody of traits, and how they manifest themselves. Its useful to understand what traits constitute your personality so that # you can find out and identify your strengths and weakness, # and how you should orient your life, # choose environments and jobs that align with your traits, # choose a partner who would gel well with your disposition so that the relationship lasts and you both don't drive each other mad 30:10 26:41 who is a conscientious person?? Industrious and orderly. What makes a person industrious?...they find it unpleasant and unsettling to not be doing something. It's not that being Industrious makes them happy...its just that they can't stand sitting idle doing nothing. Ethical obligation to share the product of your labour with other humans. They feel bad if they aren't being busily productive doing something all the time. They are gonna work like mad. Being with unconscientious people might make them relax a bit and loosen up, but mostly they'd just get mad and annoyed by the messiness and the laid back nature of the unconscientious people, and would constantly be picking up after them 33:39 linguistic hypothesis. It's possible to extract out what constitutes personality by looking at the linguistic representation of descriptors insofar as they are encapsulated in language. (So basically, as long as there is a word describing the trait, you can use the adjective/descriptor to define someone's personality) and the big5 model assumes that all the traits have been described by the language, (so basically, all traits that exist have an adjective that describes them) and so, they assume that model is pretty much comprehensive and covers all areas of personality and that is sort of a limiting assumption but it atleast gives us somewhere to start so ok 35:10 how do you tell if a psychological concept is real?? What is exist?? *Construct validation.* How is an abstract construct similar and different to other constructs?? 37:29 self serving bias 40:16 why people enter political discussion 》1) to impose their temperament and views on the world 2) to engage in dialogue with people who are quite different than they are 40:51 army men temperament 》really high conscientiousness (since the environment requires it) but they also need to use their own minds and make tough calls on their own as well but that isn't their forte so they will have a hard time doing it Entrepreneurs have the opposite profile 》high openness, low conscientiousness 43:06 correlation between grades and creativity is zero (maybe even negative) since creative people step outside of the evaluation measure, because the creative person is gonna do things in way that is so different and unique that it will not show up on the evaluation measure (noone will have any idea as to what to do with their work as it doesn't meet the "norm" 44:55 science tends to progress incrementally, one tiny microstep at a time, not in great leaps (tho, every now and then someone like Einstein shows up and blows the structure so that it advances drastically) Most of the time, You are in a discipline, you understand the discipline and then you are able to know the next micro question that needs to be answered. Science (or anything that has a structure like that, of rules that need to be applies, eg: law, entrepreneurship) allows the normal, non-Einstein people to make a change, real advancements in the generation of knowledge, by making tiny incremental changes, one step at a time. It doesn't matter if a 1000 people are doing it. *so, conscientiousness is the best predictor for succeeding in most fields* 46:06 but you need some creative wingnuts so as to ensure that some crazy psychopath doesn't steer all the conscientious people busily working hard, sticking to the same track, in the wrong direction. 46:49 Creativity is a high risk high return game. But the probability of your highly valuable flopping is higher If you wanna engage in a creative pursuit, you need a combination of creativity, a network of people who have the skills that you don't, a knowledge of the market and how it works (I guess that was the point of the kdrama Start Up).

Love these videos! The formula for balance in a relationship, as I've found it, are kindness and respect. My wife and I are about 85% opposites, we've been married for 21 years and have 4 teenagers/young adults (16-20) - and our children have never witnessed us fighting. In fact, we don't fight, even though we disagree and have different worldviews. She's a Christian, school teacher, even-tempered and has never tried illicit substances; I'm a biker, pagan, excitable, and smoked my way through school. We present our positions, listen to each other, and are both willing to compromise. We respect each other's views because they are formed from those differing worldviews, and although we may not agree we still show kindness to each other, which makes compromise much easier.

It's amazing how accurately one's scores on the big 5 predict one's behaviour in a given social situation, and in particular perfectly explain the conflicting feelings and impulses one experiences. I'm extremely high in openness, high in introversion, high in neuroticism, and pretty high in agreeableness. When I'm at a party, for example, I have a constant tension between interest in, and fear of, other people. On one level, I'm regarding others as potential sources of horrible emotional pain (viz, rejection), and therefore experiencing a high level of social anxiety (neuroticism). On another level, I have a desire to ingratiate myself with everyone (agreeableness). On another level, I'm constantly on the lookout for anyone with whom I can have an interesting, meaningful or philosophical conversation, and if I do find someone, I get ridiculously happy and excited and feel I've had a valuable and rewarding experience (openness); if I don't click with anyone, and particularly if anyone reacts badly to me, I leave in a state of complete emotional turmoil, and feeling like a failed and disfunctional human being (neuroticism again). Either way I come out of it exhausted, most likely with a headache, and have to spend several hours afterwards, and much of the next day, just processing and analysing everything that happened. Then I avoid social interaction for the next two weeks (introversion). And now, for some reason, I've revealed how deeply weird I am to a load of strangers on the internet (Enneagram type 4 xP).

I love that I came into my B.S. in Psych in 2018 hearing Dr. Peterson. He was an inspiration of mine to become something more. I've recently graduated with my B.S. in Psych and now working in the mental healthcare system. I understand so much more, which is expected, and coming back to this lecture was a great decision. Thank you to everyone who allowed his lectures to air.

I'm pretty quiet, spend a lot of time alone, and everyone (including myself) would 100% say I am an introvert, but social interactions really do energize me and put me in a great mood.

[@dll7658]

Pretty similar. But then it depends on whose company.

[@aquamarinedream8304]

Saaame!!

[@theloveofwisdompodcast2512]

This could be down to different aspects, because personality is complicated. For example if you're high I'm openness you might feel energised by conversations around ideas or creativity, and that might overrule your introversion in that situation. I have a friend who's quite introverted, but because she's high in openness she presents as if she were extroverted when we interact because I'm also high in openness. There's many different ways the different traits can interact with each other that produce different results.

[@ctamai]

This is my first time sitting in on a JBP lecture. I feel so richly rewarded. It was jam packed with meaning and valuable life lessons. Super grateful for the recording.

[@hkl103]

I don't get what people find special about these lectures. I've watched them carefully and I don't see why this is any better then just getting an average book on differential psychology. You'll find there the same information and with way more caveats than Peterson presents here. I really miss all the exceptions and caveats you need to make since scientific knowledge is by far not as settled as Peterson presents it. Yes, the big 5 traits are useful, robust and so on. Everything correct, but there is still a huge scientific discussion going on one shouldn't ignore at a serious university level… At least in Germany, our average psychology students have a more complex view on the psychology of personality after their second or third semester than what is presented here in the lecture…

[@slothsluethe177]

There are alot of us that have never gone to a higher level of education, and therefore never heard someone give a lecture. For that reason, for myself, these videos are worth their weight in gold!

[@flashwashington2735]

@@hkl103 you mean to say that the good Doctor should have crammed and communicated 2 to 3 years of your university experience into one 50 minute lecture? Well, mister insightful genius post your video showing how you do it. Are you saying that Peterson doesn't explore or reveal the caveats after 59 minutes? Well he has made many more lectures available where he does that. Again, make the video and post it. The only reason to suffer all the expenditure of time money and other resources is to make contacts and friends, you may even marry one of them, or because you need the credentials. So people are thankful to the accessible, freely available digestible resources Dr Peterson presents, with love and compassion. Some have even majored in such subjects and Doctors gift for teaching along with their changed situations in life maybe conducive to realigning their thoughts to see in new patterns or realities. If this is so beneath you, cast your dirt elsewhere. I see no takers here. Fo watch what blesses you. Sing it's praise with delight. Go on now. Yes off you go.

[@DonaldHTyers]

I so appreciate Jordan Peterson and his analogy of these various traits! Jordan is the very best there is!!!

[@opalfenwick3953]

Thank you, Jordan, for allowing us to peek inside your classroom. Never thought I'd be listening to _psychology_ lectures, till I realized my characters were shallow and not carrying my story like they should, and you are one of the few (getting fewer) brave enough to talk abt the differences between men and women, which I really wanted in order to write male characters in particular better. You've helped me so much with my writing, you don't even know. I found you because of the left trying to pick on you with red skull, and I figured, if you made the left mad you must be doing something right. I've loved you ever since ☺️

[@user-60267]

I've listened to Jordan Peterson's interviews but watching his dynamic and the ways in which he engages his students by looking directly at them throughout the course of the lecture is something else. Mind-blowing ability to verbally articulate himself and exceptional use of body language and eye-contact to engage students and drive his points home.

@@Petra999 ha you aren’t alone. I think JP did say to be careful with how introverted you are though. I try to practice being more extroverted so I don’t fall into more of an introverted lifestyle and block people out. Just something to be mindful of as it may help keep your relationships strong.

[@sebu1301]

You could be an ambivert, i.e. in the middle of the curve. I'm the same way. Do you like to entertain a crowd, for example tell a story to a group of about 6 people, and keep going strong even if there's a side conversation going on in the group? I'm not a pro psychologist, but would guess only a true extrovert can pull off a stunt like that. Are you a heavy alcohol user? Alcohol use is to my knowledge strongly correlated with extroversion. Other recreational drugs too edit. I'm sorry, just realized you could be commenting here under your real full name. If that is the case you might not be inclined to share details about your alcohol and drug use with the whole internet 🤣

I'm a typical introvert and I like one-on-one interaction (preferably meaningful:-) and I avoid group interactions precisely because they drain me and I don't enjoy them. I always though that something is wrong with me in that regard (social anxiety, etc) UNTIL I heard this lecture. Thank you Dr Peterson.

[@Coeurebene1]

Such good advice for creative people in the end. I've been blessed to enjoy software development and that's a great way to achieve it if you have such inclination. Easy to find a good day job, and the same skills can be applied to work on your own pet projects at home. The best approach for me was to work a few years, save up money, and fund myself sabbatical years from time to time. Working on creative projects at home in the evenings of week ends can be toxic for your family life, I tried it briefly and stopped the first I got annoyed when my toddler broke my focus by bringing me her drawings, that's not something you want to inflict on your spouse or children.

Hello. I am really grateful for your videos. It has transformed the way I think and really gave me self trust and confidence to take stand of the things I believe, things I decided I will believe after wrestling with it on a philosophical and more fundamental level. I am a petroleum engineering graduate but I have been reading philosophy and psychology since I was high school. I am really fascinated by the human capacity to think and feel. I really wanted to pursue it as career back then but I was young, stupid, and naive to make any informed decision by myself so I listen to the counsel of my parents. any game is better than no game. I am really thankful that your work has given me the platform to nurture myself in an intellectual and personal way. I pray for all the blessings that you need and all the best. Your work is creating multitudes, and it is generational. The way I interact with the people around me has been greatly affected. Thank you again.

So many comments about "Harris vs Peterson"... Their dialogue is wasted on these people. All they see is a game of "my guy is smarter than your guy!" Both Peterson and Harris are on fairly amicable terms and are having a conversation in relatively good faith. If only these ideologically driven and stunted viewers could stop seeing it as a dogfight, they might find themselves capable of engaging in more honest conversation.

[@draheim90]

The best personality is probably someone who is closer to like 75th percentile on each of the Big 5 (positively scored) but has the ability to express different levels when the situation demands it. I think for basically all the traits it becomes detrimental to be more than 80-90th percentile or so or less than 20-10th. A 95th percentile extravert is reliant on other people and addicted to social interaction whereas a 5th percentile becomes agoraphobic and unable to interact with people to meet basic needs.. A 95th person in openness can’t focus on routine/mundane things, always has to be creating, and is hard to employ whereas a 5th can’t think for themselves or contribute ideas, a 95th percentile agreeable person is a doormat who gets exploited by other people and can’t fight for themselves, also shelters their children whereas a 5th percentile agreeable person is antisocial and potentially violent and psychopathic, using others, and so on.

I see a difference between introvert/extrovert and outgoing/shy. I'm an outgoing introvert; I mostly want to be alone to work on my hobbies, but when I do get into a social situation I really like meeting new people and talking to people I don't know, and I don't get shy about speaking in front of a large group or even singing/performing on a stage. Yet I really crave my alone time and start to go crazy if I don't get it.

[@victoriaburrow4300]

Dr. P I have heard many of your lectures and have subscribed to your channel. You have a brilliant mind that I believe truly understands the human heart and its nature as a whole due to all of the great readings you have done from all of the great past philosophers & religious backgrounds. One question.. I chose to raise my children & be a loving active mother with my children as they where growing up. Now that they have grown & doing very well might I add. I believe that me as a mother being at home especially through those adolescent year's was important. I have many examples & experiences that made me see that I made the right decision. Getting to the question, so you are basically saying that now I'm in my 40's that basically I'm doomed because I am too old now to find a suitable career for myself. Is that what you mean? I believe that's we are always trying to grow & become good people no matter our age. We are always learning & starting new adventures. Some decide to put their careers before starting a family so are they to old now? Maybe if you can clarify this for me because as of now it's as if you are saying individuals such as myself have no future in obtaining a job, a career ect. Thank you! Still like all of your content though.

I am glad you understood and you're trying to do something about that. Is a very hard work, understood by a few. Your effort and work is for us " the little people "" the forgotten people". I hope that more and more people will support you, because supporting you is supporting knowledge, life, real society. Many of the students who are listening now will understand the importance of your work later in life and why is important to support you.

[@seandavidr]

When people talk about Peterson vs Harris I don't think that they realize that Peterson is not only a professor but also a clinician. Peterson has more experience in helping people to have better lives. Harris is only an author and doesn't have the practical knowledge and experience that Peterson has.

[@kevinhornbuckle]

I think that this is true and explains Harris' mechanistic approach to what he considers truth. Being a clinician gives a person the opportunity to observe in detail the complexities of the human experience (if one is an effective clinician). There are layers of truth and where and when they are brought into knowing is no simple process. That is true also for science, aside from the individual-emotive realm.

[@Charlemagne_III]

seandavidr I agree, Harris is very limited in his lack of practical experience.

[@needicecream100]

If you had listened to the podcast you'd know that their disagreement was purely philosophical - life experience had nothing to do with it.

Just had to write this down before I forgot, I recently watched a sci-show episode where they talked about why plants are green and how it relates to balancing the total amount of radiation from the sun that they absorb, prevent a too high of spikes and too low of troughs. This was confirmed by some simulations done by some researchers and they found that the wavelengths selected for needed to be not too far apart, but also not too close. I wonder if this work could be used in some way to validate what JBP is talking about when he talks about partners and how optimally their big 5 traits should fit together

[@ZoeGeorge84]

I like to think about personality traits as like an audio equaliser, with different ranges along each trait.

[@adriantepes6426]

I think if you take the metaphor of an audio equalizer further, you could say the it is a continuum consisting of inner continuum's and the inner continuum's all overlap because the outer continuum is the finished product produced from the overlap. The number of inner continuum's and thereby the size of the continuum as a whole is only limited by the scale of scrutiny that you wish and are able to maintain.

Ya, I get what you're saying. On conscientiousness, I can't stand not working, and I work extremely hard and enjoy working hard.

But when working, I'm always on time, organized etc...

[@stefanlish]

I recently did big five test and then results turned out predictable but also surprising regarding the quantities. I'm ridiculously high in openness, like it is hard to score more (in the top 5% or more) and very low on consciousness, which causes of course causes trouble in my life and probably judged the most harsh by people around me. I'm also doomed like Dr. Peterson described, like a 9 to 5 job in an office will in the long run literally kill me. And with literally I mean literally. I know people in my (professional) life who are happy doing their work in a company, 60+ hours a week, and I just can't do it. I use the strategy he also described with some stable income and my own projects besides that, but that also raises the question by people of "Why don't you just totally throw yourself into your work and make a lot of money?". Tough I feel I need to be more risk taking and going after my passions more. Thank you for that insightful and interesting lecture!

[@kevinhornbuckle]

The construct is conscientiousness - not consciousness. Maybe something like learning a musical instrument would be good for you. If you have something which demands conscientiousness and also provides for creativity, you would be challenging yourself to be something you are not, and at the same time satisfying something that you are.
