Big Five dimensionerna möter arbetstillfredsställelse

Asmar, Nadin, Kallestad, Tommy January 2011 (has links)
Tidigare forskning har gett stöd för att personlighet påverkar arbetstillfredsställelse, och i denna studie undersöks om detta även gäller inom socialpsykiatrin i Eskilstuna. Syftet med studien var att undersöka samband och varians mellan olika personlighetsdimensioner och arbetstillfredsställelse. Big Five personlighetsdimensionerna mättes med Shafers personality scale och arbetstillfredsställelse med Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire, och dessa mätningar skedde genom en enkätundersökning. De 78 deltagarna i denna studie var personal inom socialpsykiatrin, varav 23 var män. Resultaten redovisades genom Pearsons korrelationer och en hierarkisk regressionsanalys som visade att det fanns samband mellan vissa av Big Five dimensionerna och arbetstillfredsställelsefaktorerna. Detta stämmer även överens med tidigare forskning inom ämnet men däremot blev det inget signifikant resultat för hur stor del av variansen som berodde på personlighetsdimensionerna. Denna studie bidrar med att undersöka hur personligheten hos en outforskad yrkesgrupp är relaterat till hur de trivs på sitt arbete.

Kriminalvårdares och polisers syn på intagna i anstalt : en studie i attityd och personlighet

Andersson, Jessica, Färdigh, Andreas January 2011 (has links)
Attityder påverkar vår informationshantering, vårt omdöme och vårt beteende. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka om fenomenet skiljer sig mellan olika grupper och om det har att göra med personlighet. 120 personer ur grupperna poliser, kriminalvårdare och en kontrollgrupp undersöktes avseende attityder till intagna och Big Five teorins personlighetsdimensioner. En one-way ANOVA visade inga signifikanta skillnader mellan grupperna. Två-vägs variansanalyser användes för att undersöka eventuella huvudeffekter och interaktionseffekter med hög respektive låg grad av samtliga personlighetsdimensioner samt variablerna anställning (kriminalvårdare, poliser och kontrollgrupp) och attityd till intagna. Inga signifikanta resultat påträffades.

Personlighetstestning som metod vid rekrytering

Dalmo, Helena, Heimer, Johanna January 2012 (has links)
Detta är en kvalitativ studie som  kartlägger synen på personlighet inom sex olika företag inom rekryteringsbranschen. Studien beskriver hur och i vilket syfte personlighetstester används samt vilken betydelse de har i rekryteringsprocessen för chefsrekryteringar. Utifrån denns studie kan vi kunde vi att personlighetstester används för att kartlägga personligheten i syfte att göra en matchning med kravprofilen för att se om personen har de kvaliteter som önskas i ett rekryteringssammanhang. Vi fann dock en tveksamhet inför att vilja uttrycka personlighetstesters tyngd i urvalet. Vi kom också fram till att informanterna hade delade meningar om huruvida det är den objektiva eller den subjektiva bilden av personen som är av värde för att prognostisera framtida beteenden. Utifrån denna diskurs ställer vi oss undrande till om det är kandidatens självuppskattade bild eller omgivningens uppfattning som borde vara mest relevant för en lyckad rekrytering. Vidare fann vi att intervjuer enligt de flesta av våra informanterna har större betydelse för det slutgiltiga urvalet i rekryteringsprocessen än personlighetstester. Vad som dock är intressant att påpeka är att testresultatet ligger till grund för vad som diskuteras under intervjun och på så vis får en styrande funktion.

En relation mellan The Big Five och Health Locus of Control?

Åstedt, Eric, Mörck, Robin January 2007 (has links)
Denna studie undersökte relationen mellan karaktärsdragen i The Big Five och Health Locus of Control (HLC). Testen NEO-FFI och MHLC användes för att mäta karaktärsdragen och dimensionerna i HLC. 130 studenter vid Växjö universitet deltog i studien. Resultatet visade en relation mellan Conscientiousness och dimensionen Intern HLC. Extraversion hade en något svagare relation till IHLC. Studenter med en högre grad av Conscientiousness eller Extraversion hade generellt en högre grad av IHLC. Neuroticism hade en relation till dimensionen Powerful others (PHLC). Studenterna med en högre grad Neuroticism hade också i allmänhet en högre grad av PHLC. De funna relationerna kan tyda på att karaktärsdragen tillsammans med HLC möjligen kan påverka faktorer som inverkar på hälsan.

Hur mycket predicerar biopsykosociala faktorer alkoholkonsumtionen i förhållande till BMI hos studenter?

Andersson, Daniel, Nilsson, Conny January 2009 (has links)
Syftet med vår studie var att undersöka hur mycket av alkoholkonsumtionen hos stu-denter som kan prediceras genom biologiska (BMI, ålder och kön), psykologiska (Lo-cus of Control och The Big Five Personality Theory) samt sociala (alkoholvanor i familjen och anledningar till alkoholkonsumtion) faktorer. Vi har valt att undersöka varje individs alkoholkonsumtion i förhållande till BMI och därefter se hur mycket av variansen som kan prediceras av de variabler vi undersökt. Vårt urval bestod av gym-nasieelever och universitetsstudenter i Växjö. Sammanlagt ingick 201 personer i un-dersökningen, 107 män och 94 kvinnor. Vi använde oss av en enkät för insamling av vår data. Vi gjorde en multipel regressions analys som visade att alkoholkonsumtion kan prediceras till 34,3% av de prediktorer vi använt oss av. De biologiska faktorerna predicerade enskild sammanlagt 13,1% av konsumtionen, de psykologiska faktorerna 13,3% och de sociala faktorerna 7,9% av alkoholkonsumtionen i vårt urval. Studiens syfte ämnar belysa en del av de faktorer som påverkar en individs alkoholkonsumtion, för att skapa en djupare förståelse av alkoholmönster hos studenter. / The purpose of this study was to investigate to what extent alcohol consumption among students is predicted by biological (BMI, age and gender), psychological (Lo-cus of Control and The Big Five Theory) and social (drinking habits within the family and reasons for alcohol consumption) factors. We have chosen to investigate each respondent’s alcohol consumption in relation to BMI and then see to what extent the variance can be predicted by the variables we have investigated. Our selection con-sists of upper secondary school students and university students in Växjö. A total of 201 persons participated in the inquiry, of whom 107 were men and 94 were women. The data was collected by means of a questionnaire. We conducted a multiple regres-sion analysis which showed alcohol consumption can be predicted to 34.3% by the variables in this study. In our selection the biological factors alone predicted 13.1% of the alcohol consumption, the psychological factors 13.3% and the social factors 7.9%. This study seeks to highlight some of the factors that affect an individual’s consump-tion of alcohol, this in order to create a deeper understanding concerning alcohol pat-terns among students.

A Study of the Effects of Personality Traits and Cultural Exposure of Job on Cultural Intelligence: A Case Study of R & D Employee in B Technology Company

Tsao, Yi-Jhen 09 July 2011 (has links)
Since a few decades ago, world seems flat because of globalization, however, cultural diversity also creates challenges and problems for individuals and organizations. Cultural intelligence (CQ), defined as an individual¡¦s capability to function and manage effectively in culturally diverse settings (Earley & Ang, 2003). CQ can explain why some individuals are more effective than others in culturally diverse situations; therefore, it¡¦s important for everyone. Until now, relatively researches mainly focuses on the influence of CQ. To know antecedents of CQ, this study developing and testing a model including external factor and internal factor, and posits differential relationships among the four CQ dimensions (metacognitive, cognitive, motivational and behavioural), employment cross-cultural exposure, and Big Five personality (Conscientiousness, Agreeableness, Emotional stability, Extraversion, and Openness to experience). The results demonstrate employment cross-cultural exposure predicted all of the four CQ dimensions; extraversion and openness to experience predicted metacognitive, motivational and behavioural CQ; and employment cross-cultural exposure has stronger effect on behavioural CQ through moderating effect of conscientiousness.

The effects of hi-tech facility personnel´s personality and functional competency on job performance

Yeh, Pei-shan 06 July 2012 (has links)
This research is founded on facility personnel¡¦s in hi-tech industries, with two objectives: 1) understand investigate how workers¡¦ personal personality and functional competencies influence their job performance, and 2) establish a criteria for future recruitment. This study uses the Big Five Model developed by McCrae & Costa (1989). The Big Five refers to agreeableness, conscientiousness, extraversion, emotional stability, and openness to experience. In addition, the five functional competencies, identified through expert interviews, include air-conditioning, electricity, fire prevention, environmental protection, safety and damage prevention. In this study, 148 samples were collected. Research methods include descriptive statistics to analyze sample characteristics, reliability analysis to verify validity of tables, and regression analysis to verify the effects of demographic profile, personality, and functional competencies. The findings suggest that agreeableness and conscientiousness positively affect job performance. On functional competencies, fire prevention, safety and damage prevention contribute favorably to job performance. These findings could be used towards recruitment and selection of facility personnel¡¦s, and corporate training to raise companywide performance.

The Big Five Personality Traits, Participation Motivation, and Involvement among the Pingtung County Ligang Squadron Volunteer Firefighters

Chen, Ming-Ta 25 July 2012 (has links)
As the structure of society has changed, there has been a gradual increase in non-profit organizations. People no longer work to only satisfy biological needs, but have started pursuing higher levels of self-actualization by participating in various volunteer activities. This research aimed to investigate the relationships among the big five personality traits, participation motivation, and involvement of the Pingtung County Ligang Squadron Volunteer Firefighters. The main purposes of this study were: (1) To explore the relation of demographic features to the big five personality traits of volunteer firefighters; (2) To explore the relation of the big five personality traits to participation motivation of volunteer firefighters; and (3) To explore whether participation motivation would be associated with involvement. We distributed 185 questionnaires via purposive sampling and received 145 valid questionnaires. The response rate was 80.5%. Reliability, descriptive statistics, independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, and regression analysis were employed for data analysis. The results showed that volunteer firefighters' personality traits were correlated with age, education level, and occupation. Among the big five personality traits, conscientiousness and emotional stability were significantly associated with participation motivation. Volunteer firefighters with the firefighting or nursing profession showed greater willingness for continued participation. Implications, limitations, and future directions are discussed.

The relationship between personality, emotion management methods and job burnout-the case of cosmetics salewomen

Wang, Lei-Ya 08 February 2007 (has links)
When first-line service providers are confronted with customers, they are usually demanded by the organization to display certain emotion to meet organization¡¦s service standard, such work condition is known as emotional labor. The purpose of present study was to explore the relationship between emotional management methods (i.e. surface acting and deep acting), the antecedents-personality (i.e. extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, openness to experiences, and neuroticism) and the consequences-burnout (i.e. emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and diminished accomplishment) of emotional labors. To be specific, the study examined the relationships between personalities with two ways of acting and burnout, and also tends to explore what sort of relationship exists between two ways of acting and burnout. To test these hypotheses, self-report data were collected from 186 cosmetics saleswomen through questionnaires. The results suggested that extraversion; agreeableness, conscientiousness, and openness to experiences had significant negative correlation with surface acting but had positive correlation with deep acting, and neuroticism had significant positive correlation with surface but negative correlation with deep acting; surface acting had significant positive correlation with three dimensions of burnout, while deep acting had significant negative correlation with three dimensions of burnout; the results also suggested that emotional management methods had moderating effect on the relationship of personalities and burnout. Implications for future research and service work were also discussed at the end.
