Inhaltszusammenfassung
The spirit and purpose of all personality factor models is to describe, explain and predict human behaviour. It significantly depends on the researcher's perspective though, which and how many factors are to include in a model of value. A high trait level comes with generalisability, but reduces predictability of concrete behaviour. In practical use, f.i. in the context of personnel selection, standardized personality measures applied are mostly supplemented with some kind of action test ...The spirit and purpose of all personality factor models is to describe, explain and predict human behaviour. It significantly depends on the researcher's perspective though, which and how many factors are to include in a model of value. A high trait level comes with generalisability, but reduces predictability of concrete behaviour. In practical use, f.i. in the context of personnel selection, standardized personality measures applied are mostly supplemented with some kind of action test like job references and work samples. There is a natural gap between predicting behaviour precisely and measuring behaviour tendencies on a universal level. So why not create a personality factor that deals with human actions exclusively? Surprisingly, there is not a single item within the Five Factor Model that covers an experience or belief of capability. In fact, there is more than one concept at hand that has proved useful to fill the gap between personality and action approaches.
