Holland Type as a Moderator of Personality-Performance Predictions.

Fritzsche, Barbara A.; McIntire, Sandra A.; Yost, Amy Powell

Journal of Vocational Behavior, v60 n3 p422-36 Jun 2002

Data from 559 undergraduates provided modest evidence that Holland's taxonomy of work environments moderated the relationship between personality and performance. The traits of agreeableness and conscientiousness were better predictors of performance in certain environments. The important relationship between personality and performance may be masked if context is ignored. (Contains 41 references.) (SK)
