The cross-cultural validity of the Eysenck Personality Inventory: a test in Afrikaans-speaking South Africa.

To test the cross-cultural validity of the EPI, an Afrikaans version of the scale was given to a group of Afrikaans-speaking school children reared in the relatively ‘authoritarian’ climate of white South Africa. They were also given a social-distance measure of prejudice and a version of Eysenck's Tender-mindedness scale. Immediately after responding to the EPI, the subjects rated themselves on nine-point scales of introversion-extraversion and neuroticism-stability. Each class member rated every other member of the class on these two dimensions as well. The significant correlations between the EPI measures and the self-and other-ratings of the respective dimensions suggest that the EPI is fairly valid in this new context. The insignificant correlations between the EPI scales and the measures of tender-mindedness and prejudice suggest that these latter social attributes are unrelated to extraversion and neuroticism in this setting. The results are discussed and interpreted in the light of other cross-cultural findings with the inventory.
