Answer 1

The  five-factor model was conceived after researchers noticed the similarities in the personality dimensions that had emerged across many studies, both within and between cultures.

Explanation:

The five factor model (FFM) explains the personality traits. FFM helps in analyzing the personality of a human based on clinical observations.

The five factor model is as follows:

i) Extraversion

ii) Agreeableness

iii) Conscientiousness

iv) Neuroticism

v) Openness to Experience

FFM was developed by Robert McCrae and Paul Costa. This factor helps in monitoring energetic and gregarious behaviors.
