The article presents the results of the pilot study of the relationships between personality traits and intelligence in Russian boys and girls of high school age. We focused on the Big Five personality traits-Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness to experience, Agreeableness and Conscientiousness -and the structure of their relationships with non-verbal intelligence measured with Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices. Significant correlations between Openness and intelligence were only found on the female sample. We revealed similarities and differences in the personality structures of boys and girls. The results are interpreted in the context of socio-cultural explanatory category.
