Considering the personality of users in Recommender Systems can provide more relevant results. In this study, we analyzed whether, with advances in personality detection (inference without using questionnaires), Collaborative Filtering approaches based on personality continue to improve the accuracy of traditional approaches (based essentially on ratings). Furthermore, we analyze whether there are differences when applying different personality models. We considered 1058 TripAdvisor users and 10889 Amazon customers in the experiment, with personality characteristics inferred via IBM Watson Personality Insights. The results indicated the possibility of improving accuracy by employing an approach using inferred data concerning any personality models analyzed (Big Five, Needs, and Values). Moreover, the Values ​​model provided results equivalent to the Big Five model (without facets), and, in general terms, there was no improvement when using the Big Five model with data from its facets (nor when including data from the other models).
