Abstract
The purpose of this study was to know the relationship between the Big Five personality dimension and academic achievement motivation. We examined the relationship between the Big Five personality traits and its facets evaluated with the NEO PI-R (Costa & McCrae, 2007). We evaluated academic motivation (achievement and results) with an academic goals questionnaire. The study was made in 958 students of Brazil. The results showed a strong correlation between the big five per sonality factors and their facets and achievement motivation, while motivation for the results showed negative sign with agreeableness and positive, but minor, with extraversion and conscientiousness. These results are interpreted in terms of creating a proper field between education models and individual differences in students’ academic motivation. Directions for future research and educational practice are considered.
