Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The Big Five personality traits (openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism) have been extensively researched and proven to provide useful information about an individual's personality in various settings. The other options (MMPI, MBTI, self-concept) are either more focused on clinical assessments, typologies, or self-perceptions, respectively, and may not have the same level of empirical support as the Big Five.
