Il riconoscimento automatico di personalità è diventato popolare nelle comunità di linguistica computazionale. I test Big Five e MBTI sono due modelli differenti per valutare la personalità, ma ancora non c'è un vero confronto dei due in ambito di riconoscimento automaticodi personalità. In questo articolo per la prima volta forniamo una comparazione dei due modelli dal punto di vista computazionale. Per fare questo abbiamoraccolto dati Twitter in Inglese, Italiano, Spagnolo e Olandese in due corpora paralleli annotati con i due test.  \n1 Introduction  \nThe last decade has been characterized by the rise of personality computing in Natural Lan  \nguage Processing (NLP) (Vinciarelli and Mohammadi, 2014): for example, several works have dealt with the automatic prediction of personality traits of authors from different pieces of text they wrote in emails, blogs or social media (Mairesse et al., 2007; Iacobelli et al., 2011; Schwartz et al., 2013) (Rangel Pardo et al., 2015) . Personality computing is also broadening its application  \nto many fields in academia as well as in industry, including security (Golbeck et al., 2011), human resources (Turban et al., 2017), advertising (Celli et al., 2017) and deception detection (Fornaciari et al., 2013) . Historically, there are two popular but very different psychological tests to asses personality: (i) the Big Five (Costa and McCrae, 1985; Costa and McCrae, 2008), which is widely accepted in academia, and (ii) the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) (Myers and Myers, 2010), which is very popular and widely used in industry. The Big Five model defines personality along 5 bipolar scales: Extraversion (sociable vs. shy); Emotional Stability (secure vs. neurotic); Agreeableness (friendly vs. ugly); Conscientiousness (organized vs. careless); Openness to Experience (insightful vs. unimaginative) . In contrast, the MBTI defines 4 binary classes that combines into 16 personality types: Extraversion/Introversion, Sensing/Intuition, Perception/Judging, Feeling/Thinking. Correlation analyses of the personality measures showed that Big Five Extraversion was correlated with MBTI Extraversion-Introversion, Openness to Experience was correlated with Sensing-Intuition, Agreeableness with Thinking-Feeling and Conscientiousness with Judging-Perceiving (Furnham et al., 2003) . A reason for the recently gained popularity of MBTI is the fact that it is easier to collect gold-standard labelled data about MBTI than about Big Five, as an MBTI type is a 4-letter coding (e.g., INTJ) that could be retrieved with simple queries. In a field like personality computing,  \nwhere data is costly and difficult to collect, this isan enormous advantage.  \nIn this paper we address the question whether it is easier to predict Big Five or MBTI classes with a machine learning approach. To do so, we collect two Twitter datasets in English, Italian, Dutch and Spanish, one annotated with the Big Five personality types and one with MBTI. We believe that this  \nwork will be useful for the scientific community of personality computing to better understand the heuristic power of the two models when applied to machine learning tasks.  \nThe paper is structured as follows: in the next section we provide an overview of","cbCaisseknSNDupg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisseknSNDupg","pdf",207575,"English","# Introduction\n# Related Work\n## Brief overview of personality computing","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the paper address about Big Five versus MBTI in personality computing?\",\"answer\":\"It addresses whether it is easier to predict Big Five or MBTI classes using machine learning approaches in personality computing.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the paper build its datasets?\",\"answer\":\"It collects two Twitter datasets in English, Italian, Dutch, and Spanish, with one annotated for Big Five types and the other annotated for MBTI types.\"},{\"question\":\"Which two psychological frameworks are compared?\",\"answer\":\"The paper compares the Big Five model and the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), contrasting their scales and resulting personality categorizations.\"}]","Is Big Five better than MBTI? - A personality computing challenge using Twitter data | PDF",15]
