The study examines the structure of the Russian version of the HEXACO-100 (Ashton, Lee, 2004). Sample consisted of 571 participants aged from 16 to 84 (58% women). Descriptive statistics do not differ markedly from those in original version, but Cronbach’s alphas are lower. Six-factor structure of all the items (principle components, varymax rotation) reproduces the structure of the original questionnaire with some limitations: 3 items of Perfectionism are connected with Extraversion and 3 items of Creativity are not connected with any of 6 basic traits. Relationships between traits, measured by the HEXACO-100 and Short Big Five varied from .44 to .69, p<0,001 (.58 for Emotional stability, .69 for Extraversion, .48 for Agreeableness, .61 for Conscientiousness, .44 for Openness). Relationships between Honesty-Humility and Dark Triad traits (Machiavellianism, narcissism and sub-clinical psychopathy, measured by SD3) varied from -.45 to -.67.
