Psychological optimisation and training competence

Schultz, Cecilia Maria 06 1900 (has links)
Psychological optimisation is discussed and its personality profile is constructed, in terms of intrapersonal (cognitive, affective and conative) and interpersonal characteristics. Training competence is discussed and its personality profile is constructed, in terms of knowledge, attitudes, values and skills. These two personality profiles are integrated and it is found that there is a theoretical relationship exists between psychological optimisation and training competence. This leads to the research hypothesis. The empirical study is conducted among 106 lecturers at a tertiary institution. The Personal Orientation Inventory (POl) and in-depth interviews are used to measure psychological optimisation and training competence respectively. The results confirmed the hypothesis indicating that a competent trainer is a person having strong self-actualising tendency and characteristics of objectivity, self-sensitivity, internal locus of control and accommodating interpersonal relationships. Recommendations are made in order to optimise training competence. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / MCom (Industrial Psychology)

The predictive validity of learning potential and personality for work performance in a public sector department

Mashau, Eric Muthundinne 15 September 2015 (has links)
The first objective of this research was to investigate the predictive validity of the learning potential as measured by Ability, Processing of Information and Learning Potential Short Version (APIL SV) in predicting work performance. The second objective was to investigate the predictive validity of personality as measured by the Occupational Personality Questionnaire Ipsative (OPQ32i) in predicting work performance. The sample consisted of 104 employees of a public sector department. Learning potential and personality were the predictor/independent variables; work performance as measured by supervisory rating was the only criterion/dependent variable of the study. The results revealed that both the APIL SV and the OPQ 32i dimensions did not correlate significantly with work performance as measured by supervisor rating. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.

Trainer competency and psychological optimality

Cilliers, Hendrik Johannes 06 1900 (has links)
A productive workforce is recognized as the primary resource for all organizations. Workforce training and constant retraining must be a priority. The trainers' role to add value in this process is recognised. The general aim of this research was to ascertain the correlation and difference between trainer competency and psychological optimisation. The following measurement instruments were used in the study - TCQ, POI, SOCq and SCS. This study was conducted among 57 trainers working for a large transport organisation. Through a literature survey, training and psychological optimisation were defined and a personality profile of the competent trainer integrated with that of the psychological optimal functioning individual. Through an empirical study, the correlation and difference between trainer competency and psychological optimisation were determined. Supporting evidence, although not enough, indicates a correlation between trainer competency and psychological optimisation, and a difference in psychological optimisation between the high and low trainer competency groups. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.
