Psychometric Methodologies and Testing Personality Traits and Psychology Psychological Testing and Assessment

Abstract

A common practice among practitioners and researchers doing cross‐cultural work is to transport personality inventories developed in one country to another country of interest. This transport process is done with varying degrees of rigor and success. This paper describes the development of the Global Personality Inventory (GPI). The development process involved cross‐cultural input from psychologists around the world following best practices that have been identified to date for each step of the development of a cross‐cultural measure of personality. Construct validity studies including data from 11 countries and 10 languages are reported. Initial criterion‐related validity evidence for inferences made from the GPI about job performance is presented. Examples of challenges and best practices are illustrated in the areas of construct development, item writing, item selection, translation, and data analysis.
