![]() Big Five personality traits explained the variance in perceived stress similarly in both samples, and analogously to previous studies. Results: The Mini-IPIP had an acceptable fit and reliability in both samples and showed measurement invariance be-tween samples and between genders within the samples. The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-4) was used in each sample. Participants and procedure: Sample 1 comprised 723 employees from a wide range of professions and sample 2 comprised 765 high school students. This included measurement invariance between genders and between two samples representing different stages of life – an employee sample and an adolescent sample – and investigating the relationships of Big Five personality traits with perceived stress. The aim of this re-search was to investigate psychometric properties of the Polish version of the Mini-IPIP scale measuring Big Five personality factors. Stress is a well-recognized risk factor for a host of health-related outcomes and its relationship with Big-Five personality is well-evidenced. Valid and reliable short measures of these constructs may enable large scale epidemiological studies. Background: Big-Five personality traits are related to a variety of quality of life outcomes therefore, they should arguably be controlled for whenever health and well-being are investigated.
