Abstract

The relationship between personality and vocation has raised many problems, which have not yet been adequately investigated, since this area of research is comparatively recent. Many investigators claim that there are specific occupational differences in personality in that individuals who choose particular fields of work have certain personality characteristics in common. In other words, those in a certain occupation who are successful and satisfied with the nature of their employment will show, as indicated by instruments of personality measurement, similar traits or patterns of temperament or personality which differentiate them from persons in other vocations, who are successful as well.
