Big Five personality traits. Personality model consisting of five broad dimensions of personality The Big Five personality traits The theory identifies five factors: openness to experience (inventive/curious vs. consistent/cautious)conscientiousness (efficient/organized vs. extravagant/careless)extraversion (outgoing/energetic vs. solitary/reserved)agreeableness (friendly/compassionate vs. challenging/callous)neuroticism (sensitive/nervous vs. resilient/confident)[4] The five factors are abbreviated in the acronyms OCEAN or CANOE.
Beneath each proposed global factor, there are a number of correlated and more specific primary factors. Family life and upbringing will affect these traits. Development[edit] The initial model was advanced by Ernest Tupes and Raymond Christal in 1961,[13] but failed to reach an academic audience until the 1980s. Descriptions of the particular personality traits[edit] Openness to experience[edit] Big Five Personality Traits: The OCEAN Model Explained [2019 Upd.] The Big Five personality traits are all about the following question: “Who are you?”
It’s a simple enough question, but it’s one of the hardest ones to answer. There are many ways to interpret that question. An answer could include your name, your job title, your role in your family, your hobbies or passions, and your place of residence or your birthplace. Guardian - 11 Dec 2015 - Ted Cruz campaign using firm that harvested data on millions of unwitting Facebook users - by Harry Davies @harryfoxdavies.
Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign is using psychological data based on research spanning tens of millions of Facebook users, harvested largely without their permission, to boost his surging White House run and gain an edge over Donald Trump and other Republican rivals, the Guardian can reveal.
A little-known data company, now embedded within Cruz’s campaign and indirectly financed by his primary billionaire benefactor, paid researchers at Cambridge University to gather detailed psychological profiles about the US electorate using a massive pool of mainly unwitting US Facebook users built with an online survey. Ted Cruz campaign using firm that harvested data on millions of unwitting Facebook users. Harry Davies (@harryfoxdavies) The Data That Turned the World Upside Down. Jan 30, 2017 - If you haven't yet read this, it's the crucial article on how Trump won. And another good reason to get off Facebook. Trump’s data team saw a different America—and they were right. The myth that British data scientists won the election for Trump. Claims that social media data won the presidency are greatly exaggerated A piece of data science mythology has been floating around the internet for several weeks now.
It surfaced most recently in Vice, and it tells the story of a firm, Cambridge Analytica, that was supposedly instrumental in Donald Trump’s campaign. The story goes that by analysing marketing and social media data during the EU Referendum, data scientists were able to model the personalities of voters in unprecedented detail, helping the Leave campaign to an unlikely victory. Shortly after that, the firm was employed by the Trump campaign where, we are told, it contributed to another unlikely victory. In NC, black turnout decreased b/c “in 40 heavily black counties, there were 158 fewer early polling places.” The GOP’s Attack on Voting Rights Was the Most Under-Covered Story of 2016. There were 25 debates during the presidential primaries and general election and not a single question about the attack on voting rights, even though this was the first presidential election in 50 years without the full protections of the Voting Rights Act.
Fourteen states had new voting restrictions in place for the first time in 2016—including crucial swing states like Wisconsin and Virginia—yet we heard nary a peep about it on Election Day except from outlets like The Nation. This was the biggest under-covered scandal of the 2016 campaign. We’ll likely never know how many people were kept from the polls by restrictions like voter-ID laws, cuts to early voting, and barriers to voter registration. But at the very least this should have been a question that many more people were looking into. For example, 27,000 votes currently separate Trump and Clinton in Wisconsin, where 300,000 registered voters, according to a federal court, lacked strict forms of voter ID. Clinton’s data-driven campaign relied heavily on an algorithm named Ada. What didn’t she see? Hillary Clinton at a rally in Raleigh, N.C., on the eve of the election.
(Melina Mara/The Washington Post) Inside Hillary Clinton's campaign, she was known as Ada. Like the candidate herself, she had a penchant for secrecy and a private server. As blame gets parceled out Wednesday for the Democrat's stunning loss to Republican President-elect Donald Trump, Ada is likely to get a lot of second-guessing. Ada is a complex computer algorithm that the campaign was prepared to publicly unveil after the election as its invisible guiding hand. Trump’s Data Team Saw a Different America—and They Were Right. Nobody saw it coming.
Not the media. Certainly not Hillary Clinton. To understand how misled you'll be if you confine yourself only to reading liberal & mainstream voices, read this. @ggreenwald There's a lot of hot air in that piece, Glenn. See @davekarpf. Retrospective Wishcasting. Please don’t fool yourselves into believing that the secret to Trump’s success lay in some grand, secret data innovation.
(Photo: Jessica Tam) In the aftermath of any presidential campaign, there is a natural inclination to rewrite history to make sense of the outcome. That’s a bad habit. It leads us to impart meaning to the wrong things and take away the wrong lessons. We ought to avoid it. Here's a SOBERING stat: Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by a wider margin than 24 of the 45 ELECTED Presidents. #ElectoralCollegeJoke.
This cannot be said enough. White college educated voters elected Trump. The white rural and working class have been Republican for decades. Blame Trump’s Victory on College-Educated Whites, Not the Working Class. The average Trump voter is not poorly educated or unemployed, nor does he live in a rural area.
Back in May, FiveThirtyEight’s Nate Silver punctured the myth of the “working class” being Trump’s voter base: In exit polls of 23 states from the primaries, all showed a higher median income for Trump supporters than the national average, usually around $70,000. Exit polls last week, while not definitive, reveal that both college-educated white men and college educated white women voted for Trump by much higher than expected margins.
While it is true that many rural voters who backed Obama in 2008 and 2012 voted for Trump this year, these voters hardly comprise the majority of Trump’s 60 million votes, as rural voters made up only 17 percent of this year’s electorate. Most rural voters generally vote Republican anyway. Presidential election analysis: On the edge of Illinois' urban-rural divide.

In 2014, traces of an unusual survey, connected to Facebook, began appearing on internet message boards. The boards were frequented by remote freelance workers who bid on “human intelligence tasks” in an online marketplace, called Mechanical Turk, controlled by Amazon.
The “turkers,” as they’re known, tend to perform work that is rote and repetitive, like flagging pornographic images or digging through search engine results for email addresses. Most jobs pay between 1 and 15 cents. “Turking makes us our rent money and helps pay off debt,” one turker told The Intercept. Another turker has called the work “voluntary slave labor.” The task posted by “Global Science Research” appeared ordinary, at least on the surface.
“Our terms of service clearly prohibit misuse,” said a spokesperson for Amazon Web Services, by email. In late 2015, the turkers began reporting that the Global Science Research survey had abruptly shut down.

Guardian - Revealed: 50 million Facebook profiles harvested for Cambridge Analytica in major data breach. The data analytics firm that worked with Donald Trump’s election team and the winning Brexit campaign harvested millions of Facebook profiles of US voters, in one of the tech giant’s biggest ever data breaches, and used them to build a powerful software program to predict and influence choices at the ballot box.
A whistleblower has revealed to the Observer how Cambridge Analytica – a company owned by the hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer, and headed at the time by Trump’s key adviser Steve Bannon – used personal information taken without authorisation in early 2014 to build a system that could profile individual US voters, in order to target them with personalised political advertisements. Christopher Wylie, who worked with a Cambridge University academic to obtain the data, told the Observer: “We exploited Facebook to harvest millions of people’s profiles. And built models to exploit what we knew about them and target their inner demons. The revelations provoked widespread outrage.

But the full scale of the data leak involving Americans has not been previously disclosed — and Facebook, until now, has not acknowledged it.
