This study examines the five - factor model of personality and locus of control in french - speaking samples in burkina faso (N = 470) and switzerland (Ns = 1,090 , 361) using the revised NEO personality inventory (NEO - PI - R) and Levenson's internality, powerful others, and chance (IPC) scales. Alpha reliabiltiies were consistently lower in burkina faso, but the factor structure of the NEO - PI - R was replicated in both cultures. the intended three - factor structure of the IPC could not be replicated, although a two - factor solution was replicable across the two samples. Although scalar equivalence has not been demonstrated, mean - level comparisons showed the hypothesized effects for most of the five factors and locus of control, burkinabe scored higher in neuroticism than anticipated. Findings from this african sample generally replicate earlier results from asian and western cultures and are consistent with a biologically based theory of personality.
