Abstract
Two large samples were collected to evaluate the structure of traits in the temperament domain. In both samples, participants were administered random subsets of public-domain personality items from a larger pool of approximately 700 items. These data broadly cover the most widely used, public-domain measures of personality (though this breadth is not likely free of theoretical bias). When combined with a third, previously-shared dataset that used the same methodological design [4], the sample includes more than 125,000 participants from more than 220 countries and regions. Re-use potential includes many types of structural, correlational, and network analyses of personality and a wide range of demographic and psychographic constructs. The data are available in both rdata and csv formats.
Highlights
The Synthetic Aperture Personality Assessment (SAPA) Project is a collaborative online data collection tool for assessing psychological constructs across multiple domains of personality
The primary goal of the SAPA Project is to determine the combined and independent structures of each of these domains based on the collection of large, cross-sectional, online samples
The data described here were collected in order to evaluate the structure of personality constructs in the temperament domain

Re-use potential includes many types of structural, correlational, and network analyses of personality and a wide range of demographic and psychographic constructs. These three samples represent approximately 1,150 days of uninterrupted cross-sectional survey data collection using the Synthetic Aperture Personality Assessment (“SAPA”) technique
