This research aimed to determine the dominant personality traits and dimensions in students of different schools belonging to the National University Chimborazo (UNACH). A descriptive quantitative methodology was used. The data analysis was carried out using the statistical program SPSS version 23IBM. The Questionnaire 16PF-5 of Cattell (1993) was the instrument applied to measure the variables in order to get the global personality traits and dimensions. The theory of personality traits was preferred for analysis, incorporating the global dimensions: neuroticism, openness, affability, extroversion and rectitude. The results showed that there were certain dominant features in the sample such as: emotional instability and carefree trait. The main finding was high anxiety talking about the dimensions. These three aspects of individuality that are highlighted in the study by their characteristics may influence the overall performance of students.
