Peter Francis Saville (born 26 October 1946 in North-West London) is a British Chartered Occupational Psychologist involved in talent management, best known for his work in psychometrics.〔(BPS.org )〕 In 1977, he earned his Ph.D. from research into personality structure 〔 examined by Professor Hans Eysenck, on a representative sample of 2000 British adults, using a sampling methodology proposed by Claus Moser. Factor analysis provided a five variable solution of traits; Anxiety, Extraversion, Warmth, Imagination and Conscientiousness – effectively what was to become known as the Five Factor Model (FFM) or Big Five of Personality. Saville created the original Occupational Personality Questionnaires () in 1984, and was responsible for the British Standardisation of the 16 Personality Factor questionnaire in the early 1970s〔(Assessment-tech.com )〕 - praised by the author, Professor R. B. Cattell.〔Smith, P. (1994) - "The Standardization of the 16PF5: A Supplement of Norms and Technical Data". Windsor: ASE〕 He is the chairman of the Saville Consulting Group. ==Early life== Saville was born in London, UK. As a child he was diagnosed as dyslexic with a short term memory problem, later attributed to having been swung by the neck and sleeping strapped into a plaster bed at night as treatment for congenital scoliosis, a curvature of the spine.〔(Thepsychologist.org.uk )〕 He obtained an Honours Degree in Psychology from the University of Leicester, followed by a Master of Philosophy Degree in 1974 and a Doctorate in 1977 from Brunel University. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peter Saville (psychologist)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
