Abstract:
The United States is experiencing a severe shortage of Emergency Medical Service (EMS) paramedics. The job outlook for paramedics (EMT-P) for the years 2012-2022 is predicted to increase by 23%-33%, which is much faster than the 4% average increase of other first-response professions. The average tenure of paramedics is less than 4 years. There is a significant gap in the literature concerning paramedic personality traits and tenure. The primary objective of the current study is to provide empirical data on the personality traits possessed by long-term paramedics (5+ years), and compare them t

Undersökningens syfte är att undersöka skillnader i fyra personlighetsfaktorer – emotionell stabilitet, dominans, vaksamhet och regelmedvetenhet – mellan representanter från ordningsmakt, psykologistuderande och en kontrollgrupp med slumpmässigt urval. Studien utgick ifrån tre hypoteser: 1. Representanterna från ordningsmakt är mer vaksamma, dominanta, emotionellt stabila och regelmedvetna än kontrollgruppen. 2. Psykologistuderade är mer emotionellt stabila och dominanta än kontrollgruppen. 3. Högre grad av vaksamhet o

The purpose of this study was to explore the issues that are typically encountered when using personality instruments for personnel selection. Cattell's Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF) was used in the study to predict job performance in a small team-based manufacturing organization. Issues including the utility of the 16PF in this setting, the bandwidth fidelity argument (to use narrow or broad traits), and whether job-specific versus company-wide profiles provide better prediction success were addressed.

Ultimately, this information may be important for the further development of strategies for effective gene transfer, particularly for patients who suffer from inherited anaemias which result from abnormal globin gene expression (
