The aim of this study was to check the relationship existing between the Big Five, together with attitudes towards sexuality, in a sample of 255 Spanish university students (196 female, 59 male). A shortened Spanish interpretation of the Big Five (Benet-Martinez & John, 1998) was used as the basis for measuring personality traits, and a shortened version of the Sexual Opinion Survey (SOS) by Fisher, Byrne, White & Kelley (1998) was used to measure attitudes to Sexuality. The results obtained give limited support to previous investigations in which the relationship between the personality trait Neuroticism (N) and attitudes to sexuality is marked. Further, traits such as Openness and Conscientiousness were demonstrated to have significant links with attitudes to sexuality.
