Abstract
The GreenBig5 system has been meticulously studied and developed with the aim of uncovering the intricate links between Big5 personality traits and their facets and environmental attitudes and behaviors. To achieve this, the GreenBig5 framework was initially rigorously formalized. Building upon this robust mathematical foundation, the GreenBig5 dashboard was designed and developed to model the intricate connections between personalities and environmental terminology. Subsequently, the dashboard generates tailored model-specific questions, which are then distributed to relevant target user groups via the GreenBig5 app. Following that, user answers are collected and stored in the GreenBig5 AnswerDB database. This system holds the potential to yield invaluable insights into the interplay between individual personality traits and environmental factors, carrying profound implications for the realms of environmental education and policy.
