AB  - The present study aimed to: determine the extent to which the five factor model 
      of personality (FFM) accounts for variability in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) 
      symptomatology in adults, examine differences in average FFM personality traits 
      of adults with and without ASD and identify distinct behavioral phenotypes within 
      ASD. Adults (N = 828; nASD = 364) completed an online survey with an autism trait 
      questionnaire and an FFM personality questionnaire. FFM facets accounted for 70 % 
      of variance in autism trait scores. Neuroticism positively correlated with autism 
      symptom severity, while extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and 
      conscientiousness negatively correlated with autism symptom severity. Four FFM 
      subtypes emerged within adults with ASD, with three subtypes characterized by 
      high neuroticism and none characterized by lower-than-average neuroticism.
