Sažetak

By applying the method of a face to face questionnaire on a
probability sample of 1248 adult Croatian citizens, the correlation
between the basic personality traits, measured with three-
-factor IPIP scales, and some aspects of political behaviour, has
been examined. The relationship among variables was analysed
by means of regression analyses isolated from factors such as
demographic characteristics, socioeconomic status and attitudes
represented. The research indicates that political preferences are
unsignificantly correlated with the basic personality dimensions.
Agreeableness helps in explaining the intention to vote for the
SDP, extraversion in explaining the intention to vote for the HNS,
while intellect plays a role in explaining the general political
standpoint. Almost complete independence of political behaviour
from the basic personality dimensions has been discussed in view
of three hypotheses, that this is the result of a true situation or a
cultural or methodological artefact.
