The publication of this book solemnly declares to the world that the study of personality and social psychology has flourished in China, opening up a new historical period for international psychology. This book records the valuable exploration by Wang Dengfeng, Cui Hong, and others from the Department of Psychology at Peking University on the structure of Chinese personality. Compared to the Western "Big Five" personality structure, the "Big Seven" personality structure derived from Chinese lexical classification undoubtedly fits the actual situation of Chinese people better and is closer to the true state of Chinese personality.
