Personality Assessment: Understanding the Core of Human Behavior

Personality assessment is a broad and vital field that not only allows evaluation of individuals but also helps us better understand how people develop and function across various aspects of life. By applying psychological theories, models, and methods, personality research offers valuable insights into human behavior.

Key Personality Models

Among the existing models, the most widely recognized is the Five-Factor Model (also known as the Big Five personality traits). Developed through the Five-Factor Theory (FFT) by R.R. McCrae and P.T. Costa (1996), this model evaluates personality based on five core dimensions:

  • Neuroticism
  • Extraversion
  • Openness to Experience
  • Agreeableness
  • Conscientiousness

At our clinic, we exclusively offer personality assessments using the latest, most respected self-administered questionnaire — the NEO-FFI-III. This test is fully adapted and standardized for the Georgian language and cultural context, with certification from PAR, the copyright holder of the questionnaire.
