Abstract EN

The current study examined the factorial structure of HEXACO-60 inventory of the six personality factors on a sample of school and university students in the Sultanate of Oman.

The participants were 784 ninth and eleventh graders.

A total of 444 students responded to self and peer reports while the rest of the students responded to selfreport form only.

In addition, the sample included 421 university students who responded only to the self-report form.

Confirmatory factor analysis was used to examine the factorial structure of HEXACO-60.

The findings revealed a six factor structure with 51 items for both self- and peer- reports in the school sample however, a six factor structure with 60 items was found in the university sample.

Moreover, good fit indices of the inventory and good reliability coefficients were found, except for openness to experience and agreeableness factors.

Therefore, a careful use of HEXACO-60 in Oman is necessary and further psychometric studies are needed
