This study intends to investigate the impact of personality on job satisfaction among
executives in the selected private hospitals in Colombo East, Sri Lanka .The independent
variable is the types of personality with five major personality factors; extraversion,
agreeableness, openness to experience, neuroticism and conscientiousness. The dependent
variable is the job satisfaction. Data were collected from 175 executives in the selected
private hospitals in Colombo East, Sri Lanka. For measuring study variables, the convenience
sampling method is selected and the self-administered structured questionnaires are
developed. Next data thus collected were analyzed under the statistical data analysis package
of 16 using correlation and regression methods. The findings of the study suggested that the
personality types of extraversion, agreeableness, openness to experience and
conscientiousness of executive employees had significant positive impact and neuroticism I
type had significant negative impact on job satisfaction. Further, all hypotheses of the study
are empirically accepted. Hence, 43.3% of the variation in job satisfaction can be explained
by the big five personality factors. |
