Abstract

The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI-R) is a contemporary measure of 30 traits that define the five basic factors of normal personality. In both research and applied samples it has shown evidence of reliability and validity, and several studies suggest that it has utility in the prediction of job performance. The domain and facet features of the NEO-PI-R are discussed along with some issues in its use in industrial/organisational psychology.
