ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Alternative five model of personality

The alternative five model of personality is a way of looking at someone's personality that involves five different parts. It suggests that everyone has five different traits that make up their personality. These five traits are conscientiousness, agreeableness, openness to experience, extraversion, and neuroticism. Conscientiousness is being organized, reliable, and hardworking. Agreeableness is being kind, sympathetic, and willing to help others. Openness to experience is being creative, open to new ideas, and curious. Extraversion is being outgoing, adventurous, and enthusiastic. Neuroticism is being easily anxious or stressed. So, in the alternative five model, everyone's personality is made up of these five traits.
