Correlations of the S5 and XS5 with longer personality inventories (EPIP-NEO in Estonia, NEO PI-R in other countries).

<p>Filled circles = S5; empty circles = XS5. Numeric data are presented in Tables F-K in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0182714#pone.0182714.s002" target="_blank">S1 File</a>.</p

Self-peer correlations on five-factor domain scales: S5 (black circles) and XS5 (triangles).

<p>Gray lines indicate the correlations after controlling for acquiescence ("s" = subtracting, "p" = partialling). Numeric data are shown in Table L in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0182714#pone.0182714.s002" target="_blank">S1 File</a>.</p

Cronbach alphas and congruence coefficients for two Finnish samples (student sample; representative internet sample).

<p>„p” = after partialling acquiescence; „s” = after subtracting acquiescence. Numeric data are presented in Tables G (student sample) and M (representative sample) in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0182714#pone.0182714.s002" target="_blank">S1 File</a>.</p
