 In fact, on the face of it philosophers should be quite amenable to this framework, and be interested in incorporating it into their thinking about character. For unlike the Big Five, the VIA is focused specifically on character traits, rather than personality traits in general (Peterson and Park 2009: 26–27). And while there might be a few omissions, it is remarkably comprehensive. Plus, unlike most advocates of the Big Five, Peterson, Seligman, and their colleagues seem to be more comfortable describing character traits on metaphysical grounds as dispositions with causal powers.
