was to examine the effect of birth order on the outcome of three of Big Five Inventory traits. Specifically, the researcher wanted to examine how birth order effects conscientiousness, openness, and extraversion. The researchers expected that individuals born first within their families would show higher levels of conscientiousness, youngest children would score higher on levels of openness, and that last-born individual would score the highest on the extraversion trait. Taken together, the…

assistant professor of psychology Marcus Crede’s assessment of grit, which he states “is far less important than has commonly been assumed...And it doesn't tell us anything that we don't already know." Crede states “Grit is nearly identical to conscientiousness, which has been known to psychologists for decades as a major dimension of personality.”. The Big Five has been used by psychologists since…
For example, someone who is high on openness would be more likely to try a new restaurant and a new dish verses someone who is low on openness who always goes to Jimmy Johns and orders the same sandwich. 2. Conscientiousness is kind of like responsibility. A person high on conscientiousness is dependable, hardworking and punctual. They follow social norms, control their impulses, and are goal driven.

But in recent decades, psychologists have settled on a group of personality dimensions known as the Big Five: conscientiousness, agreeableness, extroversion, neuroticism and openness.” As a result crede has more research on grit because they’ve been studying it since 1930.

The fact that grit is defined as being the strength of our character and that Marcus Crede believes this is neither important nor insightful is inane. Obviously, Crede is confused and must be introduced to the reality of grit. Grit has been proven a countless number of times to be an auspicious trait for succeeding. An example of this can be found on AmericanRadioWorks.org, where Angela Duckworth’s research implies that Community College students with the highest grit continue college, while…
also affect relationship duration and satisfaction. Despite the contradicting findings on extraversion and openness, researchers seem to be in fair agreement with each other on the negative influence of neuroticism and the positive impact of conscientiousness and agreeableness.

While the test did not…
