Abstract:Assessed the reliability and validity of the Nonverbal Personality 
Questionnaire (NPQ; H. A. Murray, 1938) and its factor structure in data from 6 
cultures: Canada, Finland, Poland, Germany, Russia and Hong Kong. A total of 
575 Ss from these cultures completed the NPQ and the Personality Research 
Form-E (PRF; D. N. Jackson, 1984). Findings show that NPQ had good levels of 
internal consistency, reliability and convergent validity across Ss. Analyses 
of the factor structure of both verbal and nonverbal inventories showed a very 
robust organization to the personality traits. The factors found in each 
culture's data resembled the "Big Five" factors of personality (extraversion, 
agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism and openness to experience). The 
NPQ shows certain advantages over comparable verbal measures as it can be 
applied in cross cultural contexts, and with illiterate populations, mixed 
language-speaking groups and dyslexic individuals. (PsycINFO Database Record

Hi

Sam Paunenon at U of Western Ontario indeed did a study with verbal (various 
languages) and pictorial versions.  Sounds like it might be just what you want.

Take care

Thanks to everyone for all the ideas I received for field activities on the sem 
at sea! I have sort of decided on one per class but like the personality 
development one the least. What's hard is that we just can't count on 
communicating with people.

Right now I'm thinking of doing something with the Big-5 but it will require 
that students find people at the various ports of call who can read English. I 
have found that the IPIP website, which is sufficient for my purposes, has a 
wealth of languages to which the Big-5 has been translated but the big plan is 
to have people who are bilingual complete the questionnaire in each language; 
there is some literature that people come out a bit different depending on the 
language they are completing it in.

So I'm still open to ideas for something in personality development that would 
be completely nonverbal or noninteractive. I wonder if there's a Big 5 
questionnaire in pictograms?
