Union and management trainees: A comparative study of personality and occupational choice

Abstract

How is personality related to occupational entry? 40 management and 40 union trainees were compared. "The Sims SCI Occupational Rating Scale, the Allport-Vernon-Lindzey Study of Values, the California Psychological Inventory, and a custom-built, trait-centered Biographical Inventory were employed and 15 hypotheses were formulated." Differences between and within groups were found. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
