Abstract
The BFI-2 has been known to be suboptimal in assessing HEXACO Honesty-Humility (H). Recently, Denissen, Soto, Geenen, John, and van Aken (2022) attempted to improve the BFI-2's coverage of H by adding an Honesty facet to the Agreeableness scale. The present research was conducted to examine how well H variance is accounted for by this expanded BFI-2 Agreeableness scale. The results (N = 434) indicated that expanded BFI-2 Agreeableness did not noticeably improve the variance accounted for in HEXACO-60 Honesty-Humility, nor did it increase the prediction of H-related outcome variables. However, the BFI-2's coverage of H could be substantially enhanced by an ad hoc 3-facet H scale developed in this study, which defined a factor separate from the five defined by the original 15 BFI-2 facet scales.
