This research investigated the completing of a web-based personality assessment using smart phones and computers. Data were collected from 47 undergraduate students using a within subjects design. Results indicated that the usability and the time to complete the assessment of a web-based non-optimized questionnaire is significantly different when completed with a smart phone versus a computer. However, there were no significant differences in personality scores.
