Abstract

The extent to which the “Big Five” personality trait factors guide organization in free recall was examined. Unlike previous studies, which failed to find effects, this study used traits with factor purity as stimuli. Significant levels of clustering in free recall around the Big Five factors were found. In addition, this level of clustering was compared with that found for common object nouns and personality type nouns.
