Abstract:
Objectives: to evaluate the Saville and Holdsworth Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ) to assess its potential and validity as a tool in the recruitment of doctors. To determine the range of personality characteristics in a group of general practitioners. Design: an administered commercially available questionnaire. Setting: general practitioners in North and Mid. Stafffordshire. Subjects: 133 general practitioners or trainees. Results: 44% of general practitioners agreed to participate. The majority found it useful and recognised its potential to increase self-awareness, highlight weaknesses that might be improved and for future recruitment of others to their teams. Doctors' personality traits were similar to those of managerial/professional norms. The validity of the OPQ was supported by (a) significant associations with subjects' previously reported mental health problems and (b) 83% of respondents confirming that their reports correctly described their personalities at work. Conclusions: OPQs have a place in the recruitment of doctors by identifying appropriate people to strengthen the team.

Abstract:
The ‘erratum and addendum’ by Anderson and Ones (2008) does not state unambiguously that participants' Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI) scale scores were incorrectly matched with their scores on the other inventories' scales, nor does it mention the existence of other errors in the scoring of the Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ) and Business Personality Indicator (BPI) scales. We demonstrate these errors and we recommend the retraction of the articles by Anderson and Ones (2003) and Ones and Anderson (2002). Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:
This paper reports psychometric analyses into the convergent and divergent validity of three popular entry‐level measures of occupational personality in the UK and Continental Europe. A sample of 504 individuals completed all three measures: the British version of the Hogan Personality Inventory (HPI), the Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ Version FS5.2), and the Business Personality Indicator (BPI). In addition, independent ratings of the conceptual loading of primary source scales onto the Five Factor Model (FFM) were obtained (n = 66). Data were used in a three‐stage analytical procedure directed at examining psychometric and construct validity. Results are reported for descriptive statistics (means, standard deviations, Cohen's d), internal consistency reliability (Cronbach's alphas), and exploratory factor analyses. Findings into the construct validity of first‐order scales (i.e. primary source scales) and second‐order scales (i.e. FFM loadings) are presented in detail, including multitrait–multimethod (MTMM) analyses of convergent and divergent validity. For some scales, the observed variability in our sample suggested significant range restriction/enhancement. It was found that scale reliabilities were generally lower than those typically reported by the test publishers, and that published factor structures for these measures could not be replicated by the authors for this sample of individuals. Further independent construct validity research into occupational personality inventories is encouraged based upon our proposed model of single‐, dual‐, and multiple‐inventory construct validation studies. Practically, our findings suggest that when IWO psychologists or personnel professionals aim to select/screen job applicants for a particular personality trait those who are selected may vary depending on (i) which personality inventory is used, (ii) the actual variability in the applicant sample tested, and (iii) reliability of the scales under consideration. As such, this study sounds a note of caution. Future research is called for to replicate these findings. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract:
Zusammenfassung. Persönlichkeitsfragebögen und Fähigkeitstests werden prinzipiell als gute Prädiktoren für zukünftige berufliche Leistung anerkannt (vgl. Schmidt & Hunter, 1998 ) und häufig zur Personalauswahl und -entwicklung verwendet. Während sich in den vergangenen Jahren durch die Akzeptanz der Big Five und einer Vielzahl von validen Instrumenten zur Persönlichkeitsmessung die Prädiktorenseite gut etabliert hat, wurde der Erfassung der Kriterien vergleichsweise wenig Beachtung geschenkt. In der vorliegenden Studie wird mit Hilfe eines berufsbezogenen Persönlichkeitsfragebogens (Occupational Personality Questionnaire; OPQ) und drei Fähigkeitstests die berufliche Leistung, gemessen anhand von Vorgesetztenbeurteilungen, vorhergesagt. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es zu veranschaulichen, wie die Höhe der Validität durch unterschiedliche Operationalisierungen der Arbeitsleistung beeinflusst wird. Der Fokus richtet sich dabei zum einen auf die Erfassung des Konstruktes Arbeitsleistung durch spezifische Kompetenzdimensionen im Vergleich zur einer globalen Leistungsbeurteilung. Zum anderen wird gezielt untersucht, wie sich die Reliabilität unterschiedlicher Kompetenzskalen auf die Validitätskoeffizienten auswirkt. Die praktischen Implikationen der Ergebnisse im Hinblick auf die Durchführung von Validierungsstudien werden diskutiert.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 63-70).
The dearth of studies available examining the personality-performance relationship have raised criticisms about the predictive validity of personality assessment in recruitment and selection. The Employment Equity Act (Act No.55 of 1998) stipulates the use of scientifically proven, valid and realiable assessment instruments. This study investigated the validity of the Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ 32i) as a valid predictor of job performance at a large financial services institution in South Africa. The extent to which specific personality dimensions could be correlated with job performance was determined. The sample participants comprised 132 employees, performing different roles, across different grade levels in the Administration and Finance job families. The performance rating was the criterion measure against which the predictive validity of the OPQ 32i was measured. This study produced low indices of validity between the criterion and the predictor. The OPQ 32i subscales produced high internal consistency, demonstrating the reliability of the OPQ 32i as an assessment tool. The results do not support previous findings of specific personality dimensions being valid predictors of performance across job categories. The numerous limitations have however highlighted implications for future research, particularly for the human resource performance appraisal process. The need for identification and measurement of specific personality dimensions during the performance appraisal has been suggested, as well as the use of more than one criterion measure to improve the reliability estimates of the criterion.

Abstract:
The goal of the study was to determine whether the Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ32i) yielded comparable results when two different modes of administration, namely paperand- pencil and Internet-based administration, were used in real-life, high-stakes selection settings. Two studies were conducted in which scores obtained online in unproctored settings were compared with scores obtained during proctored paper-and-pencil settings. The psychometric properties of the paper-and-pencil and Internet-based applications were strikingly similar. Structural equation modelling with EQS indicated substantial support for the hypothesis that covariance matrices of the paper-and-pencil and online applications in both studies were identical. It was concluded that relationships between the OPQ32i scales were not affected by mode of administration or supervision.

Abstract:
Working mothers face various challenges today, one of which is to be a mother, wife,caretaker and employee all at the same time. Fulfilling these challenging and sometimes demanding roles can contribute to role overload and conflict, which can have a negative impact on organisational effectiveness, as well as the overall wellbeing of the working mother. This dissertation outlines the relationship between personality dimensions, sense of coherence and the coping styles of working mothers from a salutogenic perspective. The Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ), Orientations to Life Questionnaire (OLQ) and the Coping Orientations to the Problems Experienced (COPE) Questionnaire were used to measure the relationship between personality dimensions, sense of coherence and the coping styles of working mothers. The study was conducted with 102 working mothers representing different ethnic groups and occupational levels in different occupational fields and organisations. A theoretical relationship was established. The empirical investigation provided evidence of such a relationship and it seems that coping styles can be predicted from considering personality dimensions and sense of coherence.

Abstract:
The primary aim of the research has been to determine whether there is a relationship between personality variables as measured by the Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ32i) and the work performance of credit controllers in a bank. Work performance was measured by means of internal company data sources. A literature review was used to verify whether there is a theoretical relationship between personality and work performance and strong evidence was found. The sample consisted of 89 credit controllers. The relationship between personality variables and work performance was determined by means of correlation studies and multiple regression analyses. Results are reported both in terms of statistical significance and effect sizes. Key terms: personality, work performance, credit control, personality trait theory, Sixteen Personality Factors questionnaire (16PF), Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ).
