Psychometric integrity of Cloninger's Temperament and Character Inventory was investigated using response of 2165 subjects (1132 males, 1033 females). The findings generally correspond to that published by Cloninger, especially the character dimensions, but the 4-dimensional temperament model was nit supported in the present sample.
Persistence appeared to be part of harm avoidance, closely associated with reflection, reserve, and regimentation. Exploratory excitability was negatively associated with harm avoidance subscales, the finding that was obviously expected and was discovered in some of Cloninger's samples and a New Zealand sample as well.
