Regional stereotypes: Personality characteristics of a typical Czech, Moravian and Silesian
Hřebíčková, Martina ; Cholastová, E.
The research compared profiles of personality traits based on ratings of regional stereotypes. The five-factor model of personality measured with National Character Survey was used as a framework for rating of regional stereotypes. Altogether, 944 university students from different parts of the Czech Republic were asked to rate personality traits of a typical inhabitant of three regions in the Czech Republic: Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia. Similarities between profiles of regional stereotypes were determined with ICC. Respondents from different parts of the Czech Republic agreed in perception of personality traits of a typical Bohemian, Moravian and Silesian. The comparison of regional stereotypes showed no convergence. A typical Czech was perceived as more open to new experience and more conscientious as compared to a typical Moravian and Silesian. A typical Moravian was rated as extraverted and agreeable.
