“…On the one hand, some researchers have moved toward accepting the Big Five as a representation of basic personality trait dimensions in childhood and adolescence (e.g., Digman, 1994;Goldberg, 2001;Halverson et al, 2003;Kohnstamm, Halverson, Mervielde, & Havill, 1998). On the other hand, several findings are not easily reconciled with the canonical Big Five structure (e.g., Hampson & Goldberg, 2006;John, Caspi, Robins, Moffitt, & Stouthamer-Loeber, 1994;Lamb, Chuang, Wessels, Broberg, & Hwang, 2002;van Lieshout & Haselager, 1994), and further research is needed before the issue can be considered settled.…”
