Six personality factors: the Big Five plus Honesty-Humility
The HEXACO model is a personality structure proposed by Michael Ashton and Kibeom Lee after analysing personality adjectives across many languages. It describes personality with six factors: Honesty-Humility (H), Emotionality (E), eXtraversion (X), Agreeableness (A), Conscientiousness (C) and Openness to Experience (O). This quiz is an abridged educational version with 10 items per factor, 60 in total, and its items are not the official HEXACO-PI-R items.
Key ideas
Emotionality and Agreeableness, reshaped
They resemble Big Five Neuroticism and Agreeableness but are grouped differently: patience with anger belongs to Agreeableness, while sentimentality and worry belong to Emotionality.
Reverse-keyed items
Some items are scored in reverse. Asking about the same idea in both directions helps reduce the pull to agree with everything.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from a Big Five test?
The biggest difference is six factors instead of five, with Honesty-Humility as its own factor. The other factors have similar names but slightly different content.
Is my percentage a rank against other people?
No. The percentage shows where your answers sit relative to the maximum score for that factor. It is not a percentile compared with a norm group.
Where can I take the official inventory?
The HEXACO researchers provide research items and self-report versions on their official site, hexaco.org. For accurate comparisons, the official version is the better choice.
This result is a reference for learning about personality theory and reflecting on yourself. It is not the official HEXACO-PI-R and should not be used for hiring or diagnosis.
