ABSTRACT
The present study examines the relationship between Personality traits and self-esteem among university students. Hundred students of Aligarh Muslim University (50-Girls and 50-Boys) were incorporated as participants of the study. Big five inventory-2-short (BFI-2-S) by Soto and John (2017), and self-esteem scale (Rosenberg, 1965) were used as measurement tools. To analyse the data; t-test and Pearson product- moment correlation was used. The findings of the study showed that gender differences exist in terms of neuroticism and agreeableness. Positive and significant correlation was found among conscientiousness, extraversion and self-esteem, whereas negative and significant correlation exhibits between self-esteem and neuroticism.
