[Survey] Big five personality and chess style

Hi all,

Since I am both interested in psychology and chess, I thought it would be a good ide to mix it together in a little "study".

The survey I created will ask you to take a personality test (link in the survey), and then ask questions about your playing style. The personality test will take less then 15 minutes, while the rest of the survey will take only a couple of minutes.

I appreciate every single participant, and please share this so we can get as much data as possible!

Thank you!
I participated as well, would be interested if you could post your results later when more people have done so.
Thanks for showing interest, really glad to see that!

I forgot to write that I am obviously going to publish the results here on lichess, as soon as we get a decent number of participants :)
In only 22 hours, 27 people have answered the survey! Cool to see you guys find this interesting and invest some minutes of your own time to try to find out if there is any meaningful correlation here.

I kind of regret that i didn't have a question about if you like to play the same opening over and over, or if you prefer to vary. I would predict that variety had a significant positive correlation with openness to experience.

Anyhow, I would like to ask you guys how many answers would be good enough to start doing the math, and find out the results?
Post after every 25 answers. Then you can see if it changes much.
