• Want to know what kind of person we are
• It is related to several aspects of our life

- Mesomorph (thin, introverted), ectomorph (strong, muscular), Endomorph (bigger, sociable,
relaxed, easygoing)
• Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

The main belief is to actually help us understand our preferences. (MBTI)

, Organizational behaviour


The Big Five and research
Conscientiousness: Positively related to salary, promotions, and job satisfaction in most
jobs
Extraversion: Inconsistent findings (may depend on type of work). In some studies
linked to performance, salary and job level, in others not
Openness and agreeableness: Not consistently related to job performance; in some instances
contribute to lower job performance
Neuroticism: Negatively related to performance, salary and status
Agreeableness: Likely to interfere with management potential.

Employee selection
• Psychometric tests:
- Not always good predictors of performance!
- Cognitive ability test (good predictor of performance)
- Identify individuals who will more likely collaborate/ come into a conflict- MBTI, Big
Five
- Strengths finder
• Interviews
- Structured competency-based interviews (focus on key competences)
• Cybervetting

Learning
• Learning is a process of acquiring knowledge through experience, leading to a lasting change
in behavior.
• Behavior psychology (observable behavior, habits, mechanistic)
• Cognitive psychology (mental processes, cognitive structure, rich and complex)

1. Growth mindset (challenges help me to grow)
2. Fixed mindset (when I’m frustrated, I give up)

Learning and feedback:
• We cannot learn without feedback
• Feedback can be rewarding or punishing
• Intrinsic feedback (self-generated)
• Extrinsic feedback (from external source)
- Concurrent feedback
- Delayed feedback
• Feedforward interview

Reinforcing certain behavior: (too simplistic?)
Positive reinforcement Introducing positive Desired behavior is repeated
consequences
Negative reinforcement Withdrawing negative
consequences
Punishment Applying negative Undesired behavior is not
consequences repeated
Extinction Attach no positive or negative
consequences
