Аннотация:The aim of this study was to analyze the interrelationships between the ‘Big Five’ personality traits, fluid intelligence and Exams Success Rates on Math in Russian high school students. The study involved 200 Russian high school students in Grade 11 (Mean = 17.6 years, SD = 0.4, 48.5% males) from a public secondary school. The Russian version of the ‘NEO-PI-R’ questionnaire was used to assess personality traits. Fluid intelligence was measured with the ‘Raven Progressive Matrices’ test. Exams Success Rates was indicated by test scores of the Unified State Exam on Math. Using structural equation modeling three theoretical models of how personality traits and intelligence influence the exam success rates on Math were tested. The analysis was controlled for age and sex. The results might discuss in terms of the investment theory.
