[edit] Openness to experience

Doesn't seem encyclopedic. -- Kjkolb 09:56, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Non-encylcopedic and opens door to all sorts of dubious noun phrases describing emotional states. Marskell 10:26, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete- might have a place as a section in psychology, but excessive detail given that it is actually pretty obvious what it means. - Just zis Guy, you know? 10:48, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. The number of Google scholar hits [1], makes me think that something interesting about this concept may be written. In particular, at least the published papers with the term in the title may contain non-trivial information about the issue. In doubt, I would keep the article for now. I agree it needs a cleanup.

  • Delete as dicdef. The Google Scholar hits appear to be simple uses of this as a descriptive phrase. --Carnildo 22:43, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as per Carnildo. MCB 01:15, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete not encyclopedic and very POV --MacRusgail 19:08, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom --Rogerd 04:45, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Re-write - 'Openess to Experience' is one of the 5 basic personality traits proposed by the 'Big 5' theory of personality. This model of personality is currently the dominant model in Psychology. This article is written baddly, but there is a need for the article.
