Openness is a broad, diffuse personality dimension. In general, highly open people like a variety of new experiences, whether physical, emotional, intellectual, or cultural.
The six facets of openness are:
- Adventurousness. Experience new situations in your life.
- Artistic interests. Enjoy art, music, and culture.
- Emotionality. Attune to your own and others' emotions. Truly feel emotions.
- Imagination. Imagine.
- Intellect. Play with ideas, reflect on philosophical concepts, and have deep discussions.
- Liberalism. Be the engine of progressive change.
