Full textOpenness to experience is one of the least useful personality predictors in the workplace. The present study tested the notion that openness to experience would be a more effective predictor of tenure and turnover intention if openness to experience was separated into two sub-factors. We used a total sample size of, N = 96, participants, which was analyzed both as a whole and separately, segmented by students (n = 51) and working adults (n = 45).
The present study was unable to show that the sub-factors of openness to experience were more effective predictors of turnover intention and tenure. Implications of the evidence in the present study are discussed with the conclusion that openness to experience, at the factor and the sub-factor levels, is a weak predictor in the workplace.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Career management has received a significant amount of research attention because of its known effects on important work-related outcomes such as organisational commitment (De Vos, Dewettnick & Buyens, 2007). However, the modern world of work has brought fresh challenges for both individuals and organisations when it comes to the management of careers. Rapid economic, technological and societal change imply that, on the one hand, organisations face the challenge of retaining and motivating talented employees through the judicious use of career management systems. On the other hand, these influences indicate a growing awareness of the individual‟s responsibility for career development. However, the way in which individuals respond to organisational initiatives through their work-related attitudes is not well known. Despite previous research that has successfully investigated the relationship between career management and organisational commitment, the possible role that individual differences may play in this regard has received scant research attention. This research study firstly investigates the direct relationships between career management (i.e., both individually and organisationally driven activities) and affective organisational commitment, and secondly, it aims to explore the role of individual differences in this process by examining the moderating role of personality (in the form of openness to experience) in this relationship. For this purpose, quantitative data were collected by means of a survey questionnaire administered to a South African public sector organisation (N = 311) and analysed with correlation and moderated multiple regression analysis to test the hypothesised relationships. The results indicated that employees‟ perceptions regarding the organisation‟s career management activities influence whether individuals initiate internally or externally oriented career self management activities. Where respondents perceived receiving high levels of organisational career management, they also reported increased organisational commitment. More committed individuals, on their part, were found to be more likely to engage in internally oriented individual career management and less likely to practice career management activities aiming at leaving the organisation. Results showed that openness to experience did not moderate the relationship between organisational career management and commitment. However, openness to experience did moderate the effect of commitment on individuals‟ career self-management activities (both internally and externally oriented activities). The implications of these results are discussed and limitations of the present study, as well as recommendations for future studies, are presented.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Loopbaanbestuur ontvang tradisioneel aansienlike navorsingsaandag weens die bewese effek daarvan op belangrike werksverwante uitkomste soos organisasie-verbondenheid (De Vos, Dewettnick & Buyens, 2007). Die modêrne werkswêreld bied egter vars uitdagings met betrekking tot loopbaanbestuur vir beide individuele werknemers én vir organisasies. Snelle verandering in die ekonomiese, tegnologiese en sosiale landskap veroorsaak dat, op hul beurt, organisasies, die uitdaging in die gesig staar om talentvolle werknemers te behou en te motiveer deur die oorwoë toepassing van loopbaanbestuurstelsels. Op die keersy, veroorsaak hierdie invloede „n groter bewustheid van die verantwoordelikheid van die individu vir sy/haar eie loopbaanbestuur. Die wyse waarop individue reageer op organisasie-inisiatiewe in terme van hul werkshoudings is egter relatief onbekend. Ten spyte van vorige navorsing wat suksesvol die verbandskap tussen loopbaanbestuur en organisasieverbondenheid ondersoek het, het die moontlike rol van individuele verskille in hierdie proses egter betreklik min navorsingsaandag ontvang. Hierdie navorsingstudie ondersoek eerstens die direkte verwantskap tussen loopbaanbestuursaktiwiteite (d.w.s., beide individuele en organisasiegedrewe aktiwiteite) en organisasieverbondenheid, en tweedens, word die bemiddelende rol van individuele verskille in hierdie proses verken deur die rol van persoonlikheid (in die vorm van oopheid tot ervaring) te ondersoek. Vir hierdie doeleinde is kwantitatiewe data ingesamel deur middel van vraelyste afgeneem binne „n Suid Afrikaanse openbare sektor organisasie (N = 311). Hierdie data is ontleed met korrelasie-ontledings en meervoudige regressie-analise ten einde die gehipotiseerde verbandskappe te toets. Die resultate toon dat werknemers se perspepsies van die organisasie se loopbaanbestuuraktiwiteite bepaal tot watter mate hulle intern- of ekstern gefokusde loopbaanselfbestuuraktiwiteite onderneem. Waar respondente hoë vlakke van organisasiegedrewe loopbaanbestuur gerapporteer het, was hoë vlakke van organisasieverbondenheid teenwoordig. Meer verbonde individue, op hulle beurt, was meer geneig om intern-geöriënteerde loopbaanbestuur toe te pas en minder geneig om aktiwiteite te onderneem gerig op uittrede uit die organisasie. Die resultate toon verder dat, alhoewel oopheid tot ervaring nie die verband tussen organisasie-loopbaanbestuur en verbondheid modereer nie, dit wél die effek van verbondheid op individue se selfgedrewe loopbaanbestuursaktiwiteite (beide intern- en ekstern-geöriënteerde aktiwiteite) modereer. Die implikasies van die resultate word vervolgens bespreek en die beperkinge van die huidige studie word uitgelig. Ten slotte, word aanbevelings vir toekomstige studies gemaak.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT : Organisations are rapidly discovering the invaluable influence of creativity and innovation at work. An individual’s capacity to engage creatively with his or her work is becoming increasingly recognised as integral for organisational success and competitive advantage. The quest for an increase in creative output is driven by the following question: what causes variance in creative work involvement? The purpose of this study was to address the question of variance in creative work involvement across a variety of industries. In order to do so empirically, a structural model was developed after an interrogation of the literature to present the hypothesised relationships suggested through previous research. In essence, this study explored the significance of four relationships: (1) the effect of psychological safety on creative work involvement, (2) the effect of inclusive leadership on psychological safety, (3) the effect of openness to experience on creative work involvement, and (4) the moderating effect of vitality on the relationship between psychological safety and creative work involvement. The research approach was a quantitative study in which an ex post facto correlation research design was used. A total of 39 organisations participated in the study; they are located in the Western Cape, Eastern Cape and Gauteng provinces in South Africa. An electronic self-administered survey that consisted of six sections and 39 items was distributed to employees in varying roles and across different industries. Participation was voluntary; 519 employees engaged in the survey. Multiple regression analysis was used in order to evaluate the data collected. Creative work involvement, psychological safety and vitality were measured by utilising the measurement items presented by Kark and Carmeli (2009). Inclusive leadership was measured using nine items from Carmeli, Reiter-Palmon and Ziv (2010). Lastly, openness to experience was measured using the HEXACO-60 survey (Lee & Ashton, 2004), of which only the 10 items pertaining to this construct were included in the survey presented to the participants. The findings reveal that psychological safety had a significant effect on creative work involvement, and inclusive leadership was shown to have a significant effect on psychological safety. In addition, there was a significant positive relationship between openness to experience and creative work involvement. Moreover, vitality was shown not to have a significant moderating effect on the relationship between psychological safety and creative work involvement. It also was found that the relationship between vitality and creative work involvement was significant. The discussions and implications of this research suggest a number of implementations with which managers can engage in order to stimulate creative behaviour and further encourage creative work involvement through strategic decision making at a variety of organisational levels. Greater levels of creative work engagement can be achieved for the overall success of the organisation, which could have an impact on the global community at large.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING : Organisasies besef toenemend die onskatbare waarde van kreatiwiteit en innovasie in die werkplek. ’n Individu se vermoë om kreatief met sy of haar werk om te gaan, word toenemend erken as noodsaaklik vir ’n organisasie se sukses en mededingende voordeel (Florida & Goodnight, 2005, soos Bissola & Imperatori, 2011). Die soeke na ’n toename in kreatiewe uitset/produksie/opbrengs/vermoë word gedryf deur die volgende vraag: wat veroorsaak variansie in kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid? Die doel van hierdie studie was om die vraag oor variansie in kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid in ’n verskeidenheid industrieë aan te spreek. Om dit empiries te doen, is ’n strukturele model, na bestudering van die literatuur, ontwikkel wat die hipotetiese verhoudinge uitbeeld wat deur vorige navorsing gesuggereer is. In wese verken hierdie studie die beduidendheid van vier verhoudinge: (1) die effek van sielkundige veiligheid op kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid, (2) die effek van inklusiewe leierskap op sielkundige veiligheid, (3) die effek van ontvanklikheid vir ervaring op kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid, en (4) die modererende effek van lewenskragtigheid op die verhouding tussen sielkundige veiligheid en kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid. Die navorsingswerkswyse is ‘n kwantitatiewe studie waarin ʼn ex post facto-korrelasionele navorsingsontwerp gebruik is. ’n Totaal van 39 organisasies, geleë in die Wes-Kaap, Oos-Kaap en Gauteng, het aan die studie deelgeneem. ’n Elektroniese selfgeadministreerde vraelys, bestaande uit ses afdelings en 39 items, is onder werknemers in verskeie rolle en in verskeie industrieë versprei. Deelname was vrywillig en 519 werknemers het die vraelys voltooi. Meervoudige regressie-analise is gebruik om die ingesamelde data te evalueer. Kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid, sielkundige veiligheid en lewenskragtigheid is gemeet met behulp van die metings-items wat deur Kark and Carmeli (2009) voorgestel is. Inklusiewe leierskap is gemeet met nege items van Carmeli, Reiter-Palmon en Ziv (2010). Laastens is die ontvanklikheid vir ervaring gemeet met gebruik van die HEXACO-60 opname (Lee & Ashton, 2004), waarvan slegs die 10 items wat betrekking het op hierdie konstruk ingesluit is in die vraelys wat aan die deelnemers voorgelê is. Die bevindinge het getoon dat sielkundige veiligheid ’n beduidende effek op kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid het en dat inklusiewe leierskap ‘n beduidende effek op sielkundige veiligheid het. Bykomend hiertoe is ’n beduidende positiewe verwantskap tussen ontvanklikheid vir ervaring en kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid gevind. Verder is aangedui dat lewenskragtigheid nie ’n beduidende modererende effek op die verwantskap tussen sielkundige veiligheid en kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid het nie. Daar is ook bevind dat die verwantskap tussen lewenskragtigheid en kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid beduidend is. In die bespreking en implikasies van hierdie navorsing word ’n aantal voorstelle gemaak wat bestuurders kan implementeer om kreatiewe gedrag te stimuleer en kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid verder aan te moedig deur strategiese besluitneming op ’n verskeidenheid van organisatoriese vlakke. Groter vlakke van kreatiewe werksbetrokkenheid kan bereik word wat die oorkoepelende sukses van ’n organisasie bevorder, wat dan weer ’n impak op die globale gemeenskap kan hê.

Full textCreativity is typically gauged in two ways. Divergent Thinking (DT), which reflects flexibility and originality, and creative effectiveness, which describes a person’s creative life achievements. Creativity is robustly associated with intelligence and the personality trait Openness to expirence. Intelligence has been shown to be associated with shorter response time and higher temporal precision in timing tasks. Since timingprecision is thus associated with intelligence, and intelligence in turn with creativity, we asked how creativity relates to timingprecision. The results showed that DT was not significantly correlated to any other variable. However, creative effectiveness was significantly correlated with Openness and timingprecision. A simultaneous multiple regression with timingprecision, Openness, and intelligence as predictors explained 28% of the variance creative effectiveness, but only Openness had a significant contribution.

Full textI media diskuteras ofta fördomar mot en viss grupp som helt skilda från fördomar mot andra grupper. Efter Breivik’s massaker debatterades till exempel intolerans mot muslimer i stor utsträckning, men det diskuterades inte mycket kring att han även uttryckt extrema åsikter om kvinnor och homosexuella. Likväl är den gemensamma nämnaren i sådana attityder av yttersta vikt för att förstå varför vissa individer är mer intoleranta än andra. Tidigare forskning visar att personer som är mer rasistiska än andra också tenderar att vara mer sexistiska, samt nedvärdera till exempel, handikappade människor. Den gemensamma nämnare i sådana attityder kallas generaliserad fördomsfullhet och utgör grundbulten i personlighetsteorier om fördomar då det pekar på att somliga alltid tycks ogilla/nedvärdera utsatta grupper. Idag är det även välkänt att två personlighetsvariabler, vänlighet och öppenhet för nya erfarenheter, beskriver vem som uttrycker mer fördomar än andra. Däremot har det inte ägnats mycket kraft åt frågan vad exakt det är som dessa variabler förklarar, respektive inte förklarar. Syftet med avhandlingen var därmed att erbjuda en mer detaljerad analys av kopplingen mellan personlighet och generaliserad fördomsfullhet. Artikel I visade att personlighet förklarar den gemensamma nämnaren i olika typer av fördomar, medan grupptillhörighet (exempelvis kön) förklarar skillnader som är unika för fördomar mot en viss grupp (kvinnor). Personlighet och grupptillhörighet kompletterar alltså varandra som förklaringar snarare än att vara motsägelsefulla, såsom vissa forskare menat. Tre studier från Artikel II visade att vänlighet och öppenhet till nya erfarenheter hänger samman med viljekontrollerade fördomar, men inte spontana negativa associationer. Målet med Artikel III var att undersöka om personlighet förklarar fördomar av anledningen att vissa alltid favoriserar sin egen grupp över andra grupper (så kallad etnocentrism). Denna tanke har tagits för givet inom forskning om fördomsfullhet, men antagandet har inte testats empiriskt. Resultaten från tre studier pekar på att, till skillnad från generaliserad fördomsfullhet, så visar etnocentrism i sig inte på några starka samband med personlighet. Sammanfattningsvis så hänger varken vänlighet eller öppenhet ihop med spontan gruppnegativitet eller att ogilla ”de andra”. Däremot så pekar personlighetsfaktorer i stor utsträckning på vem som väljer att uttryckligen nedvärdera utsatta grupper.

Full textThe main aim of this work is to iluminate Heidegger s ontological criticism of the freudian theory, which was collected by Medard Boss in the Zollikon s Seminars (1987). This criticism can only be understood in the light of the developments made by the philosopher in relation to Husserl s phenomenology. The main point is that Heidegger had investigated, in the 1920 s, the way of being of human beings, in order to have access to the fundamental question of the meaning of being in general (Seinsfrage). Such a procedure brought Heidegger to the development of a fundamental ontology which has psique as its subject matter. Therefore, he is able to approach phenomenologically something which is only implicit in the freudian theory. This one is concerned itself explicitly with certains pathologicals (neurotical symptoms) and non-pathologicals (dreams, misbehaviors, lapsos linguae etc) psiquic processes, on the base of which it developed a model of the mental functioning. Based on this common subject matter, Heidegger will criticize Freud for not having understood correctly the meaning of being of the psiquic, for having done an objetification, that means, for having understood it in the light of the unproper category of substance. Notwithstanding, both the philosopher nor the specialists after him, succeeded in identifying which substance is the psiquism in Freud s theory. What we intend to show is that for him it is an irritable substance. This is a caracterization that comes from the XIX century s physiology. Such a substance should further be understood in the light of physical (physicalism) and biological (darwinism) concepts. With this caracterization we were able then to contrast Freud s way of conceiving psiquism with Heidegger s proposal, that is to say, to contrast the concepts of irratable substance and fundamental openness. This can only be properly understood thou on the base of the differences in the way each one of the autors here in question understands what does it means to have an experience. The concept of experience plays, therefore, a decisive role, as we tried to show, in the determination of the being of the psiquic
Este trabalho teve por objetivo fundamental explicitar a crítica ontológica de Heidegger à teoria freudiana, compilada por Medard Boss nos Seminários de Zollikon (1987). Essa crítica só pode ser compreendida à luz das reformulações levadas a cabo pelo filósofo em relação à fenomenologia de Husserl. No essencial, Heidegger irá perguntar, nos anos 1920, pelo modo de ser do ente homem para, com isso, ter acesso à pergunta fundamental do sentido do ser em geral (Seinsfrage). Ao proceder dessa forma, Heidegger é levado a uma ontologia fundamental que tem como tema o modo de ser da psique. Com isso, ele aborda fenomenologicamente algo que é apenas implícito na teoria freudiana, que se ocupa, explicitamente, de certos processos psíquicos patológicos (sintomas neuróticos) e não patológicos (sonhos, chistes, atos falhos, lapsos de linguagem, etc) e a partir dos quais constrói um modelo do funcionamento mental. Com base nessa temática comum a ambos, Heidegger irá criticar Freud por esse último não ter compreendido corretamente o sentido do ser do psiquismo, de objetificá-lo, isto é, de compreendê-lo à luz da categoria não adequada de substância. Contudo, nem o filósofo, nem os estudiosos da área, identificaram que tipo de substância é o psiquismo para Freud. Pretendemos mostrar, no presente trabalho, que Freud o concebe como uma substância irritável, caracterização essa oriunda da fisiologia do século XIX, e essa última como devendo ser compreendida à luz de conceitos físicos (fisicalismo) e biológicos (darwinismo). Com essa caracterização pudemos, então, contrapor a maneira como Freud concebe o psiquismo com a maneira proposta por Heidegger, isto é, contrapor os conceitos de substância irritável ao de abertura fundamental. Contudo, essa contraposição só pode ser corretamente compreendida com base na maneira como se concebe a experiência humana. Essa última joga um papel decisivo, como procuramos mostrar, na determinação do ser do psiquismo

Nurse personality influences care quality and patient safety. According to the Big Five personality, openness indicates the tendency of being curious and motivated to find ways to improve work performance. Applied to the health care industry, openness can motivate professionals to detect the potential threats that would hurt patients. Therefore, openness would be helpful for improving patient safety. Besides, previous studies identified that work experience and time pressure influence job performance. Thus, this study includes openness, working experience, and time pressure to examine how these factors impact patient safety. The sample consisted of 488 nurses from a medical center. The study results indicate that nurse openness is positively related to patient safety. Moreover, the study results indicate that time pressure is negatively related to patient safety. The study also found that working experience may not be positively related to patient safety. This study provided the hospital managers insights that the nurse openness and time pressure are important to patient safety.

With the total market share of globally-known cosmetics brands gradually decrease over the years, many inexpensive cosmetics brands and domestic off-the-shelf brands enter this competitive market. Under the circumstances, consumer’s brand attitude becomes more important. The present study explores not only the direct effect from brand image to brand attitude, but also the mediating effect of consumer involvement, and the moderating effect of openness to experience personality. Three hundred and fifty seven valid questionnaires were collected from online consumers who have used facial care products before. The results show that involvement mediated the relationship between brand image and brand attitude. Also, the personality of openness to experience moderated the relationship between involvement and brand attitude. The implications of the findings, limitations, future research directions, and managerial implications are discussed.

Full textThe five-factor model (FFM) of personality has established itself as the predominant model of personality trait structure (Digman, 1990). The NEO-PI-R has been used as one of the most useful FFM measures. Its reliability and validity has been approved through out the world and this study sought to explore the utility of the NEO-PI-R in the Eritrean context as well by translating the NEO-PI-R English version into Tigrigna language. Reliability and validity analyses were considered and an effort was also made to establish Eritrean norms. The descriptive statistics, norms and reliability co-efficients obtained in this study were not exactly similar to the USA sample, and this was not surprising having cultural difference, however, it was quite satisfactory as a pioneer study in Eritrean context. The scree plot showed that five factors could be extracted in this study. These findings lend support to an extent to the cross-cultural applicability of the instrument. In addition evidence of face, and content validity explorations indicated that this instrument was valid across cultures. Further evidence from inter-group comparisons across variables like age, gender, and level of education supports this argument. However, since the sample size and composition were problematic, there was question in the norming. As a whole the study suggested that NEO-PI-R could make a contribution in the Eritrean context as an initial personality assessment instrument.

Full textAs the world continues to diversify and we begin to move towards a majority-minority America, it becomes ever critical for organizations to utilize diversity training effectively to create a more equitable work environment. This is especially true when considering the growth of Latino immigrants in the work force and how majority group members may view this as a threat to their group dominance, resulting in experiences of discrimination and prejudice towards minorities. However, research regarding the best methods to utilize to reduce prejudice against specific targeted groups has been inconclusive, and little work has been done to investigate personality characteristics as potential boundary conditions of diversity training effectiveness. Thus, the goal of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of two diversity training methods, perspective taking and imagined contact, specifically for trainees low in Openness to Experience who may be especially resistant to training. To test this over two time points (two weeks apart), we recruited White participants ( N= 471) via Amazon’s Mechanical Turk, highlighted the demographic changes occurring in the modern workforce, randomly assigned them to either the perspective taking, imagined contact, or control condition, and then measured their Openness to Experience, intergroup anxiety, prejudiced attitudes and behavioral intentions towards Latino immigrants. Results revealed no significant interactions with Openness to Experience, thus resulting in its omission from the final model. Results also did not provide evidence for the training methods having a significant direct effect on the reduction of prejudice and the increase in behavioral intentions towards Latino immigrants. However, there was support found for intergroup anxiety such that it mediated the relationship between the diversity training methods and prejudiced attitudes and behavioral intentions. Exploratory analyses also revealed imagined contact to be more effective at reducing prejudice and increasing positive behavioral intentions via a reduction in intergroup anxiety compared to the perspective taking condition. Implications, future research, and limitations are discussed.
