“…As for the investigation of the of the psychometric properties of the 44-item version with data from our population, as adapted by Andrade 12 , we were able to identify that there was a poor adaptation of the model. The study carried out by Junior et al 7 corroborates this finding, indicating low adaptation levels for the 44-item version. However, these findings are not in accordance with BFI validation studies carried out in other countries, which showed appropriate internal consistency regarding the original model 8 – 10 .…”

“…Similarly, other countries such as France, the United States and Germany tested the short version of the BFI with 10 items, having concluded that the short version maintains significant reliability and validity levels when compared to the original BFI 13 , 14 . The study carried out by Junior et al 7 also verified better adaptation indexes in the short version of the instrument, however, consisting of 25 items.…”

“…In countries such as France, the United States and Germany, there is a short version of the BFI with 10 items, the performance of which proved to be equivalent to that of the original version 13 , 14 . In Brazil, Junior et al 7 validated a shorter version, featuring 25 items, maintaining the structure with the five factors, which provide support to the instrument’s original theory.…”

“…There are several instruments based in the big five personality factors model, such as the Revised NEO Personality Instrument (NEO PI-R) 4 , the Trait Descriptive Adjective (TDA) 5 , the International Personality Item Pool (IPIP) 5 , and the Big Five Inventory (BFI) 6 . Among these, the standout would be the BFI, a globally recognized instrument that, in addition to being free, can be used by professionals other than psychologists 7 , hence being a widely used instrument for survey and research purposes. The main goal of the BFI is to assess the personality of individuals over the age of 18.…”

“…The original version of the BFI (with 44 items) has already been translated and validated for many countries, such as Italy 8 , Denmark 9 , the Netherlands 10 , and Germany 11 . In Brazil, the original version of the instrument was adjusted and validated by Andrade 12 , and more recently by Junior et al 7 .…”

The Big Five Inventory (BFI) is an instrument designed to assess the personality of individuals aged 18 and above. The original version consists of 44 items divided into five sub-scales representing each of the five personality factors: agreeableness, neuroticism, conscientiousness, openness, and extraversion. The main purpose of this study was to assess the factorial structure of the 44-item BFI and the reliability of two shorter versions with 20 and 10 items. The study also aimed to present normative data for interpreting scores from the short and ultrashort versions of the BFI for the Brazilian population. A total of 3565 individuals with a mean age of 33.3 years (SD = 13.0) from all Brazilian states participated in the study, with 44.2% from the State of Rio Grande do Sul. Participants completed a sociodemographic questionnaire and the BFI. Confirmatory factor analysis showed poor adaptation of the original 44-item model, but the short and ultrashort versions with 20 and 10 items respectively had good adaptation indexes and reliability, with Omega coefficients above 0.70. Normative data for the shorter versions were presented using mean, standard deviation, and percentiles (lower, medium, and higher). The study concluded that the short and ultrashort versions of the BFI have good reliability and can be used in surveys requiring a brief personality assessment.

In recent times, the rise of urbanization, industrialization, population growth, food security, and the COVID-19 pandemic have led to an increased demand for indoor spaces with efficient air conditioning systems. As a result, there is a growing interest in creating more complex HVAC systems to improve indoor spaces. Building information modeling (BIM) offers numerous benefits to the HVAC industry, such as clash detection, budget and time reductions, and increased efficiency. However, its implementation is currently hindered by various challenges. This research aims to identify the major barriers to BIM implementation in the HVAC industry in Turkey, using a questionnaire survey of 224 domain experts working in 42 different companies across various fields of the HVAC industry. The study utilized several statistical analyses to categorize and prioritize the most critical barriers, including reliability tests, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), the Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) test, Bartlett’s test, and ranking of factors (IRI). The results indicate that the “Deficiencies of Infrastructure and Lack of Qualified Personnel (DIP)” factor group constituted the most significant barrier, followed by “Lack of Documentation and Specifications (LDS)”, “Deficiencies of Case Studies and Project Drawings (DCP)”, and “Lack of Motivation and Resistance to BIM (LMR)”. Moreover, our research revealed that 60% of the participants’ companies allocate less than 40% of their budgets to technological infrastructure, which hinders the adoption of BIM. To promote BIM in the HVAC sector, we recommend enhancing personnel capacity building, improving skills and knowledge about BIM, promoting guidelines, and providing free access to documentation for practitioners.
