Faktorska struktura ZKA-PQ i spolne razlike na pet bazičnih crta ličnosti prema Zuckermanovom alternativnom modelu
Factor structure of bosnian version of ZKA-PQ and gender differences on five personality traits based on Zuckerman's Alternative Personality Model

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study was to analyze factor structure of bosnian version of ZKA-PQ, that is based on Zuckerman's Alternative Personality Model, but also gender differences on 5 personality traits. The research was entirely conducted by online questionnaire. Besides socio-demographic questions, subjects answered 200 questions from ZKA-PQ. The total sample was consisted of 233 subjects (173 (74,2%) women and 60 (25,8%) men), age 16-62 (M=32,2, SD=9,15). Reliability of ZKA-PQ scales varied from 0.70 to 0.91. The expected five factor facet structure of the ZKA-PQ was clear found, but also interpreted according to Zuckerman's model after Varimax rotation. The extracted factors explained 72,31% of total variance (KMO=0,798, Bartlett: app.χ2=1798,18; df=190; p<0,001). Gender differences were tested by Student test. As expected, men and women significatelly differ on two traits only – „Sensation seeking“ (t(196)=-3,25, p<.05; MM=99,88, MŽ=91,66) and „Neuroticism“ (t(194)=2,55, p<.05; MM=87,2, MŽ=96,79). Expected difference in trait agressivity among genders was not found (t(200)=-0,4, p>.05), except on facet „Physical agressivity“ in which men achieved statistically higher scores (t(213)=-3,73, p<.01; MM=21,9, MŽ=18,9). The results of this research are in accordance to earlier reseach of Zuckerman's Alternative five factor personality model.
