According to lexical hypothesis, all meaningful individual differences are stored in language. Analyzing the structure of language, we can discover features that are responsible for the existence of individual differences. In order to establish visible features of personality among Polish politicians, a method of free associations has been used. This method is substantially free of theoretical foundations and it can serve as a tool to explore the structure of language that is used to describe politicians. For this reason, 100 interviews have been conducted with people between 19 and 64 years old. Each person had to produce as much associations as they could. The associations concerned 25 the most well-known and recognizable politicians in Polish politics. All 11776 associations that were gathered from this survey, have been classified by 9 judges, based on taxonomy by Angleitner, Ostendorf and John [1]. The article presents the results of classification and the means to use it in future research on dimension of politicians’ personality.
