Book excerpt: The Five Factor Model, which measures individual differences on extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability, and openness to experience, is arguably the most prominent dimensional model of general personality structure. In fact, there is now a considerable body of research supporting its construct validity and practical application in clinical, health, and organizational settings. Taking this research to the forefront, The Oxford Handbook of the Five Factor Model showcases the work of expert researchers in the field as they each offer important insight and perspective on all that is known about the Five Factor Model to date. By establishing the origins, foundation, and predominance of the Five Factor Model, this Handbook will focus on such areas as construct validity, diagnosis and assessment, personality neuroscience, and how the Five Factor Model operates in business and industry, animal personality, childhood temperament, and clinical utility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personality traits are enduring dispositional tendencies commonly defined as "dimensions of individual differences in tendencies to show consistent patterns of thoughts, feelings, and actions" (McCrae & Costa, 2003, p. 25). The broad consensus within the personality literature is that normal or general personality traits can be organised around five higher-order dimensions (John, Naumann, & Soto, 2008). These five personality dimensions are Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness to Experience (Openness), Agreeableness and Conscientiousness and they collectively constitute the Five-Factor Model (FFM) of personality structure (McCrae, 2009). This book discusses recent developments and clinical applications of the FFM. Chapter One analyzes five types of personality continuity in three samples of adolescents. Chapter Two explains the personality variables included in the Five Factors Model that influence the negotiation process, with a set of studies that seeks to relate the personality factors included in the model, jointly or partially, with the behaviours displayed by the subjects' negotiators, seeking, thus, to systematize the theme under review. Chapter Three firstly provides an overview of recent developments about FFM traits and personality pathology and, secondly, it presents a research study that explored the relationships between these personality characteristics. Chapter Four examines early maladaptive schemas and dysfunctional beliefs associated with personality disorders in relation to the FFM.

Book excerpt: This Handbook provides both breadth and depth regarding current approaches to the understanding, assessment, and treatment of personality disorders. The five parts of the book address etiology; models; individual disorders and clusters; assessment; and treatment. A comprehensive picture of personality pathology is supplied that acknowledges the contributions and missteps of the past, identifies the crucial questions of the present, and sets a course for the future. It also follows the changes the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM–5) has triggered in the field of personality disorders. The editors take a unique approach where all chapters include two commentaries by experts in the field, as well as an author rejoinder. This approach engages multiple perspectives and an exchange of ideas. It is the ideal resource for researchers and treatment providers at all career stages.
