Ok so obviously, with the big five:

Agreeableness can be represented as Thinking and Feeling.
Extroversion is pretty much self explanatory and can be related to Extroversion and introversion.
Conscientiousness can be represented as Perceiving vs. Judging.
There obviously is nothing to represent Neuroticism in myers briggs, the big five adds a new component.

However, does Openness = INtuitive?

I would think Agreeableness might correspond more to Informing/Directing from the Interaction Styles (which are T/F for the S types), and Conscientiousness sounds like Cooperative/Pragmatic from the Keirsey temperaments. (Which are J/P als for the S types. For the N types, both of those are reversed).
They should try to correlate them with those factors, instead of the MBTI dichotomies.

Reviving a long abandoned thread, most likely unsuccessfully


Agreed. Keirsey temperaments were meant to measure behavior, as was the Big Five.

On that matter, I think Fe, that is FJ, correlates with agreeableness, and Fi, or FP, correlates inversely with it, and T in the middle. Conscientiousness would also correlate with Je, that is, J. Extroversion would also affect the correlation. Perhaps neuroticism also correlates slightly with emotional expression to the external world, or Fe. Openness I think would correlate more with Ne than Ni, but am not sure.

Maybe not all of them? But extroversion? I think that there is a definite correlation for sure.
