Individual and Personal Factors for Successful Learning of a Foreign Language by Linguistics Students

The article is devoted to the problem of the correlation between the foreign language acquisition effectiveness and personality traits, which are analyzed on the basis of Five-Factor model (P. Costa and R. McRae) and System-Functional model (A. I. Krupnov). The empirical study hypotheses were tested that the success of studying English by students is related to the Openness and Conscientiousness of the Five- Factor model, as well as to the variables from the instrumental-dynamic subsystem of initiative, considered within the framework of the System- Functional model.
