Dear All,
In our research paper can we use Big Five Inventory‐10 (BFI‐10) scale as a independent variables .
and which can be dependent variable ?
i would like to with Big Five Inventory‐10 (BFI‐10) scale for my research paper..
Typically, you can have more valid and reliable results if you use a scale that is longer than only 10 items. I might advise using the full BFI, rather than a ten item version.
You could also check out the BFAS, another nice Big-5 measure.

If you already have data collected, that's a different question, and we would need to hear a bit more about what other measures/scales are in your dataset.
Professor,
Now, I am searching big five inventory ( which is best for data collection) .
In literature, there are so many inventory with 60/50/30/10 items... There I am confused to choose one.. @Scott D Blaim
Here's the one I'd recommend! (The BFI-2)

Since the Big 5 are traits, they wouldn't normally change except over very long periods of time (i.e. many years). They might be dependent variables if you're using an extended time lag of many years, or measuring some kind of traumatic event, but it would otherwise be an uphill battle to model them as outcomes.
