PERSONALITY AND JOB PERFORMANCE: EVIDENCE OF INCREMENTAL VALIDITY
研究以43名会计为样本，发现工作取向、支配性及人际取向三个人格维度与工作绩效显著相关，且增量效度超过认知能力。
It is suggested that personality variables are significant predictors of job performance when carefully matched with the appropriate occupation and organization. The present study investigates the relationship between specific personality variables and job performance in a sample ( N = 43) of accountants. The results indicate that even with the effects of cognitive ability taken into account, three personality scales (orientation towards work; degree of ascendancy; and degree and quality of interpersonal orientation) are significantly related to important aspects of job performance. It is suggested that the overall validity of selection strategies might be improved with the addition of measures of relevant personality dimensions when appropriately matched to an occupation and organization.
