The present research examines the psychometric properties of the Georgian version of the Grit. 431 individuals participated in the study. Results from the confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) supported a two-dimensional higher-order structure of grit. The relationship with big five personality traits, creative activities, creative achievements, and psychological well-being demonstrated the construct validity of the Georgian version of the Grit Scale (G-Grit). The Georgian version of the Grit Scale seems well suited for future research purposes.</p><p><strong><span lang="EN-US">Key words:</span></strong>&nbsp;<em>Grit, Personality Traits, Creative Activities, Creative Achievements, Psychological Well-Being.&nbsp;</em></p> ER -
