HEXACO Model of Personality Structure

The HEXACO Model of Personality describes six core traits that influence how people think, feel, and behave. These traits are Honesty-Humility (sincerity, fairness), Emotionality (emotionally sensitive, vulnerable), eXtraversion (sociability, energy), Agreeableness (patience, kindness), Conscientiousness (organization, diligence), and Openness to Experience (curiosity, creativity). This framework helps us understand individual differences beyond traditional models, providing a comprehensive view of personality by capturing traits related to morality, emotional response, and intellectual curiosity. It is used in psychology, research, and personal development to better comprehend human behavior.
