Paul, love your course description! Linp11 ( talk) 03:30, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
This needs a copy-edit. In the intro, it reads "been shown to be just as power in predicting occupational success"...it should say powerful. Also, the piece about "Big Five personality traits have also been linked to academic success of Israeli high-school students." does not belong in the intro...(this will bring needless drama). The "Predictive Power" section is somewhat misleading as it neglects to mention the effects of social context. In your Power of personality source, on p338, it reads: "Finally, certain social contexts may wash out the effect of individual difference factors, and, in turn, people possessing certain personality characteristics may be resilient to seemingly toxic environmental influences. A systematic understanding of the relations between personality traits and social environmental factors associated with important life outcomes would be very helpful." You can cite individual pages in the references. See User:Smallman12q/Reference example for an example. Smallman12q ( talk) 01:06, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
I took off the orphan banner, I linked it to our class wiki page and added the WFU banner. Moonpe11 ( talk) 23:14, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
This should be merged (and substantially shortened) to Big Five personality traits. This is clearly just a part of that topic; the whole thing could be summarized as one paragraph mentioning several examples of this line of research that these personality measures are correlated with various life outcomes. rʨanaɢ ( talk) 23:14, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi Moonpe11, I think your article is doing great in keeping an encyclopedic tone with a NPOV, so I just have organizational suggestions:
Good job! :) Linp11 ( talk) 22:29, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi Moonpe11, Great work!! I agree with feedback from Linp11: your tone, coverage, and neutral POV are admirable! Here are some relevant copy-edits to consider:

As but one example with sourcing issues, the lead of this article asserts as fact:
Romantic relationship satisfaction, in dating, engaged, and married couples, is also predicted by Big Five personality traits. [4]
which is sourced to a primary study, that is a self-report questionnaire to boot. Seriously. Please see Wikipedia:RS#Primary.2C secondary.2C and tertiary sources; :Wikipedia articles should be based mainly on reliable secondary sources." and "Material based purely on primary sources should be avoided." Please review throughout for WP:OR, and correctly source assertions of fact to secondary sources. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that reports largely on secondary sources, not a publisher of original research based on unreviewed primary studies. SandyGeorgia ( Talk) 05:28, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
