T. Costa Jnr. and Robert McCrae
DESCRIPTION
A
world leading measure, widely used in research, the
NEO provides the benchmark against which other personality
questionnaires are evaluated.
Originally
developed by Costa & McCrae, the NEO family of personality
questionnaires are internationally recognised as the
‘Gold Standard' instruments with which to measure personality.
The UK edition of the NEO instruments has been developed
at the Psychometrics Centre under the auspices of the
City University Business School and Professor John Rust
who is the Director and founder of the centre.
The
high amount of detail gained from the questionnaire
provides a platform for substantial investigation into
an individual's behavioural style and temperament.
The computer based system generates a NEO sample report which can be edited.
