Motivation and Personality

1) Judge and Ilies (2002) examined the relationship between measures of the Big Five personality traits and various indicators of motivation from several current motivational theories. These indicators included the number and difficulty of goals set by an individual, belief on the part of the individual that hard work would lead to rewards, and belief on the part of the individual in his or her ability to perform a task or job.

2) The results showed that strong and consistent relationships exist between personality characteristics and performance motivation. Neuroticism was consistently negatively related to performance motivation. In contrast, conscientiousness |ˌkɒnʃɪˈenʃəsnəs| was positively related to all indicators of performance motivation. Put another way, conscientious and emotionally stable individuals set more challenging goals, were more likely to believe that hard work would lead to rewards, and were more confident in their ability to accomplish a task or job.
