TL;DR: Multigroup confirmatory factor analysis was used to detect differential item functioning (DIF) in factor loadings and intercepts for the Revised NEO Personality Inventory and the results indicate that considerable caution is warranted in cross-cultural comparisons of personality profiles.

TL;DR: Costa et al. as discussed by the authors used multigroup confirmatory factor analysis to detect differential item functioning in factor loadings and intercepts for the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (P. T. Costa, Jr., & R. R. McCrae, 1992) in comparisons of college students in the United States (N 261), Philippines (N 268), and Mexico (N 775).

TL;DR: In this article, self-concept consistency and short-term stability were investigated in the United States, Australia, Mexico, Venezuela, Philippines, Malaysia, China, and Japan, and evidence for substantial cross-role consistency and reliable within-individual variability in trait self-perceptions were found in each culture.
