In the last ten years, the South African Personality Inventory
(SAPI) has been developed as an indigenous measurement
of personality for the multi-cultural environment of
South Africa. The aim of the SAPI is to assess personality
in an unbiased and equivalent way. For the purpose of this
study, we used an 82-item version of the SAPI which measures
nine factors (Conscientiousness, Emotional Stability,
Extraversion, Facilitating, Integrity, Intellect, Openness,
Relationship Harmony and Soft-heartedness)
