Sažetak
The goal of this research was to examine the position of indecisiveness within the HEXACO model of personality, both at the domain and facet level. A secondary goal was to translate the Frost & Shows (1993) Indecisiveness Scale (IS) to the Croatian language and examine its validity and reliability. An internet-based sample size of 296 participants filled in both short and long version of the IS and the HEXACO- PI-R. The results show that the IS retains the original one-factor structure as proposed by the original authors and has a high reliability. The shortened version shows properties very similar to the longer version and is deemed an appropriate replacement. Extraversion showed the highest positive correlation with indecisiveness, followed by negative correlations with Conscientiousness, Emotionality and Agreeableness. Emotionality had a negative, while all the other dimension had a positive correlation with the IS. On the facet- level, indecisiveness had significant correlations with Fearfulness, Anxiety, Social Self- Esteem, Social Boldness, Sociability, Liveliness, Forgiveness, Patience, Organization, Diligence and Prudence.
