The six-factor HEXACO model of personality structure, developed as a result of lexical studies, represents a revision of the five-factor model and includes Honesty–Humility, Emotionality, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness to Experience. Ashton and Lee began efforts to develop a questionnaire that could be used to diagnose the personality traits described by the six-factor model back in 2000. Work was conducted concurrently in various countries and resulted in the formulation of comparable diagnostic methods. The HEXACO-PI-R inventory consists of 100 items and makes it possible to assess 6 factor-level traits and 25 facet-level traits. The structure of the 100-item Russian HEXACO-PI-R was the subject of the analysis. The study included two samples, one with 571 respondents (aged 16–84, 58.5% women) and another with 1,275 respondents (aged 16–79, 65.4% women). For part of the second sample, observer-reports were obtained in addition to self-reports. The results were correlated with the Big Five and the Dark Triad in order to assess convergent validity. Internal consistency reliability (alpha-Cronbach) for facet-level traits obtained for the 6 factors in the two samples were in the .70–.85 range. Correlation between factor-level traits averaged .11. Average correlation in assessing convergent validity equaled .59. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of the 100 items of the inventory confirmed its six-factor structure. Facet-level analysis (EFA of the 16 items comprising each factor-level trait, principal component analysis, varimax and oblimin rotation) yielded simple structures that support the hypothesized structure of the six factors. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the structure of each of the 6 factors was used to check three models: the first presumed a single latent factor for all 16 items comprising a facet; the second presumed four latent factors and correlations between four facets of a factor-level trait; the third presumed four first-order latent factors and one second-order factor that determined all four first-order factors. The results correspond partly to the second and partly to the third model: i.e., they do not refute expectations about the structure of each of the six factors, but they demonstrate a certain violation of the orthogonality of the facets.
