Introduction
Personality
A brief definition would be that personality is made up of the characteristic patterns of thoughts
feelings and behaviours that make a person unique. In addition to this, personality arises from
within the individual and remains fairly consistent throughout life.
Some of the fundamental characteristics of personality include:
Consistency - There is generally a recognizable order and regularity to behaviours.
Essentially, people act in the same ways or similar ways in a variety of situations.
Psychological and physiological - Personality is a psychological construct, but research
suggests that it is also influenced by biological processes and needs.
Impact behaviours and actions - Personality does not just influence how we move and
respond in our environment; it also causes us to act in certain ways.
Multiple expressions - Personality is displayed in more than just behaviour. It can also
be seen in our thoughts, feelings, close relationships and other social interactions.

PERSONALITY THEORIES
1. PSYCHODYNAMIC THEORY BY SIGMUND FREUD
Freud didn't exactly invent the idea of the conscious versus unconscious mind, but he
certainly was responsible for making it popular. The conscious mind is what you are aware ofat any particular moment, your present perceptions, memories, thoughts, fantasies, feelings,
what have you. Working closely with the conscious mind is what Freud called the
preconscious, what we might today call "available memory:" anything that can easily be made
conscious, the memories you are not at the moment thinking about but can readily bring to
mind. Now no-one has a problem with these two layers of mind. But Freud suggested that these
are the smallest parts!
The largest part by far is the unconscious. It includes all the things that are not easily available
to awareness, including many things that have their origins there, such as our drives or instincts,and things that are put there because we can't bear to look at them, such as the memories and
emotions associated with trauma.
According to Freud, the unconscious is the source of our motivations, whether they are simple
desires for food or sex, neurotic compulsions, or the motives of an artist or scientist. And yet,
we are often driven to deny or resist becoming conscious of these motives, and they are often
available to us only in disguised form.
The id works in keeping with the pleasure principle, which can be understood as a demand to
take care of needs immediately. Just picture the hungry infant, screaming itself blue. It doesn't"know" what it wants in any adult sense; it just knows that it wants it and it wants it now.
The ego, unlike the id, functions according to the reality principle, which says "take care of a
need as soon as an appropriate object is found." It represents reality and, to a considerable
extent, reason.
There are two aspects to the superego:
One is the conscience, which is an internalization of punishments and warnings. The
other is called the ego ideal. It derives from rewards and positive models presented to thechild. The conscience and ego ideal communicate their requirements to the ego with
feelings like pride, shame, and guilt.
The conscience includes information about things that are viewed as bad by parents and
society. These behaviors are often forbidden and lead to bad consequences, punishments
or feelings of guilt and remorse.

2. TRAIT THEORY Raymond Cattells Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire
Trait theorist Raymond Cattell reduced the number of main personality traits from Allports
initial list of over 4,000 down to 171, mostly by eliminating uncommon traits and combining
common characteristics. Next, Cattell rated a large sample of individuals for these 171 different
traits. Then, using a statistical technique known as factor analysis, he identified closely related
terms and eventually reduced his list to just 16 key personality traits. According to Cattell, these
16 traits are the source of all human personality. He also developed one of the most widely used
personality assessments known as the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF).
The Five-Factor Theory of Personality -
Both Cattells and Eysencks theory have been the subject of considerable research, which has
led some theorists to believe that Cattell focused on too many traits, while Eysenck focused on
too few. As a result, a new trait theory often referred to as the "Big Five" theory emerged. Thisfive-factor model of personality represents five core traits that interact to form human
personality. While researchers often disagree about the exact labels for each dimension, the
following are described most commonly:
1. Extraversion
2. Agreeableness
3. Conscientiousness
4. Neuroticism
5. Openness
3. BEHAVIOURAL THEORY BY B.F.SKINNER & ALBERT BANDURA
B. F. Skinners entire system is based on operant conditioning. The organism is in the process
of operating on the environment, which in ordinary terms means it is bouncing around its
world, doing what it does. During this operating, the organism encounters a special kind of
stimulus, called a reinforcing stimulus, or simply a reinforcer. This special stimulus has the
effect of increasing the operant -- that is, the behaviour occurring just before the reinforcer.
This is operant conditioning: the behaviour is followed by a consequence, and the nature of
the consequence modifies the organisms tendency to repeat the behaviour in the future.

4. BIOLOGICAL THEORY -Eysencks Three Dimensions of Personality
British psychologist Hans Eysencks developed a model of personality based upon just three
universal trails:
1. Introversion/Extraversion:
Introversion involves directing attention on inner experiences, while extraversion relates to
focusing attention outward on other people and the environment. So, a person high in
introversion might be quiet and reserved, while an individual high in extraversion might be
sociable and outgoing.
2. Neuroticism/Emotional Stability:
This dimension of Eysencks trait theory is related to moodiness versus even-temperedness.
Neuroticism refers to an individuals tendency to become upset or emotional, while stability
refers to the tendency to remain emotionally constant.
3. Psychoticism:
Later, after studying individuals suffering from mental illness, Eysenck added a personality
dimension he called psychoticism to his trait theory. Individuals who are high on this traittend to have difficulty dealing with reality and may be antisocial, hostile, non-empathetic
and manipulative.

5.HUMANISTIC THEORY - ABRAHAM MASLOW -
Maslow took this idea and created his now famous hierarchy of needs. Beyond the details of
air, water, food, and sex, he laid out five broader layers: the physiological needs, the needs for
safety and security, the needs for love and belonging, the needs for esteem, and the need to
actualize the self, in that order.
1. The physiological needs. These include the needs we have for oxygen, water, protein, salt,
sugar, calcium, and other minerals and vitamins. They also include the need to maintain a pH
balance (getting too acidic or base will kill you) and temperature (98.6 or near to it). Also, thereare the needs to be active, to rest, to sleep, to get rid of wastes and to avoid pain.
2. The safety and security needs. When the physiological needs are largely taken care of, this
second layer of needs comes into play. You will become increasingly interested in finding safe
circumstances, stability, and protection. You might develop a need for structure, for order,
some limits.
3. The love and belonging needs. When physiological needs and safety needs are, by and
large, taken care of, a third layer starts to show up. You begin to feel the need for friends, a
sweetheart, children; affectionate relationships in general, even a sense of community.
The esteem needs. Next, we begin to look for a little self-esteem. Maslow noted two
versions of esteem needs, a lower one and a higher one. The lower one is the need for the
respect of others, the need for status, fame, glory, recognition, attention, reputation,
8

9/32
appreciation, dignity, even dominance. The higher form involves the need for self-
respect, including such feelings as confidence, competence, achievement, mastery,
independence, and freedom
Self Actualization need. Maslow has used a variety of terms to refer to this level: He
has called it growth motivation (in contrast to deficit motivation), being needs (orB-
needs, in contrast to D-needs), and self-actualization.
Personality testing
A personality test can provide us with a way to categorized different characteristics or traits
that we might otherwise not be aware of. Additionally, this categorization will help us learn
how others might react to something in their environment.
There are many different uses for personality tests in modern society. These tests can be used
for self-reflection and understanding, for job placement, and for learning how to better interact
with others in a team or work group.
Self Reflection:
By taking a personality test, you can often learn about yourself and encourage self awareness.
For example, if your job involves presenting speeches and mingling with large crowds ofpeople, but youve always felt a little uncomfortable performing the job functions, knowing that
you are naturally introverted can help you to better understand yourself. You will realize that
performing these social functions will drain you of your energy. By making this realization, you
will be better able to cope with your job and create happiness for yourself.
Personality tests can also provide insight into how you react to other people. For example,
certain personality types have a tendency to get along better, while other personality types oftenare prone to arguments and clashes of style and opinion.
Group Interaction:
In addition to understanding your own personality type, it is often beneficial to understand the
personalities of those around you. For example, many work teams and even sports teams, use
9
7/31/2019 Personality Testing and Job Satisfaction
10/32
personality tests to help the team members learn more about each other. Since the personality
test indicates some of your innate preferences, it can be very useful for other team members to
understand what makes you tick.
Personality tests can also be used as a tool to help dysfunctional teams learn more about each
other and begin to work through some of their differences. Each team member would take the
same personality test and then would share their results with the other members of the team.Then, as a team, they would discuss the results and how to function as a more cohesive team.
Increasing the teams awareness of the personality types of the other members can create a more
functional and cohesive team atmosphere. Once the team members realize that someone has a
different personality type that might make them more suited to one type of communication than
the other, they can adapt and work together to create the best team dynamics. Personality tests
can be a great tool to use to bring team members together and create more productive teams.
Different careers do, by and large, require different characteristics. If you work at something
that suits you then you will avoid frustration, while your continuing satisfaction and
enjoyment are more likely to be assured. It is also true that most careers can be done equally
enjoyably by people with widely varying characteristics. It is bound to be so, since no two
people are ever completely alike.
The aim of this test is to assess people in relation to some dimensions of their personality that
are useful in job selection and satisfaction what it is about the way one feels or behaves that
makes them more suited to one job and work culture than another.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
DEFINITION OF RESEARCH
When you say that you are undertaking a research study to find answer to a question, you are
implying that the process;
1. Is being undertaken within a framework of a set of philosophies(approaches);
2. Uses procedures , methods and techniques that have been tested for their validity and
reliability;
3. Is designed to be unbiased and objective.
Philosophy means approaches e.g. qualitative, quantitative and the academic discipline in whichyou have been trained.
Validity means that correct procedures have been applied to find answers to a question
Reliability refers to the quality of a measurement procedure that provides repeatability and
accuracy.
Unbiased and objective means that you have taken each step in an unbiased manner and drawn
each conclusion to the best of your ability and without introducing your own vested interest.
TYPES OR RESEARCHES
Research can be classified from three perspectives:
1. Application of research study
2. Objective in undertaking the research
3. Inquiry mode employed
Application: From the point of view of application, there are two broad categories of research:
- Pure research
-.Applied research
11
7/31/2019 Personality Testing and Job Satisfaction
12/32
Pure research involves developing and testing theories and hypotheses that are intellectually
challenging to the researcher but, may or may not have practical application at the present time
or in the future. The knowledge produced through pure research is sought in order to add to the
existing model.
Applied research is done to solve specific, practical questions; for policy formulation
administration and understanding of a phenomenon. It can be exploratory, but is usually
descriptive. It is almost always done on the basis of basic research. Applied research can be
carried out by academic or industrial institutions. Often, an academic institution such as a
university will have a specific applied research program funded by an industrial partner
interested in that program.
Objectives:
From the viewpoint of objectives, a research can be classified as
- Descriptive
- Correlational
- Explanatory
- Exploratory
Descriptive research attempts to describe systematically a situation, problem, phenomenon,service or program, or provides information about say, living condition of a community, or
describes attitudes towards an issue.
Correlational research attempts to discover or establish the existence of a relationship/
interdependence between two or more aspects of a situation.
Explanatory researchattempts to clarify why and how there is a relationship between two or
more aspects of a situation or phenomenon.
Exploratory researchis undertaken to explore an area where little is known or to investigate the
possibilities of undertaking a particular research study (feasibilitystudy/ pilot study).
In practice most studies are a combination of the first three categories.
We are using descriptive approach because we are analyzing the personality of a sample
of 50 students.
12

Inquiry Mode:
From the process adopted to find answer to research questions the two approaches are:
- Structured approach
- Unstructured approach
Structured approach:
The structured approach to inquiry is usually classified as quantitative research.
Here everything that forms the research process- objectives, design, sample, and the questions
that you plan to ask of respondents- is predetermined. E.g. how many people have a particular
problem? How many people hold a particular attitude?
Unstructured approach:
The unstructured approach to inquiry is usually classified as qualitative research.This approach allows flexibility in all aspects of the research process.
It is more appropriate to explore the nature of a problem, issue or phenomenon without
quantifying it. Main objective is to describe the variationin a phenomenon, situation or attitude.
E.g. description of an observed situation, the historical enumeration of events, an account of
different opinions different people have about an issue, description of working condition in a
particular industry.
So we are using unstructured Qualitative Approach.

Assessment of scores
We have taken Sample space of50 Students to determine which trait is more dominant in a
person.
PEOPLE DIMENSIONS:
The personality test has two dimensions that describe the way you relate to people.
1) Whether you tend to beSolitary or gregarious.
2) Whether you tend to be assertive or passive.
ASSESSEMENT OF QUESTIONNAIRE
Count up your score for each row marked SO .do the same for G and other letters.
Place each total in the score chart below.
The maximum score you can have for each letter is 50.
With each pair of scores, write in letter or letters associated with the higher score.
Write the dominant letter in the place provided.
This will give you a combination of letters that would help you to assess your personality.
The scores go together in pairs as follows:
SOLITARY (SO) and GREGARIOUS (G)
ASSERTIVE (A) and PASSIVE (P)
IMAGINATIVE (I) and FACTUAL (F)
SPONTANEOUS (SP) and DELIBERATE (D)

Questionnaire:
Personality Test
Instructions:
Look at each statement in turn. You have to asses yourself in relation to each statement on a
scale of1 to 10.
If you gave yourself a score of 1, this would mean that the statement does not hold true for
you at all.
A score of 10 would mean that the statement describes you perfectly. A score of 5 or 6 wouldmean that the statement is sometimes true for you, and sometimes untrue. Therefore, the
larger the score you give yourself, the more you think the statement describes you.
You have to respond to each statement.
You are not being tested, so you cannot be right or wrong. Your answers will give a picture of
how you usually are and the way you think and feel. Tick the number in each scale that is true
for you.

Description Of Personality Types
The personality test provides 16 combinations based upon the 8 descriptions that are formed
from the 4 dimensions. From the 4 sets of letters we can locate a persons personality in the
personality chart given below.
If we look at the top line we can first locate if a person is imaginative or factual. Then, looking
at the bottom line of the chart we locate the second trait, if a person is deliberate or
spontaneous. Similarly the same procedure is followed for the other 2 qualities given on the left
and the right side of the chart. Using these we can determine the personality type of a person
from one of the 16 boxes.
