Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research (ASSEHR), volume 304 4th ASEAN Conference on Psychology, Counselling, and Humanities (ACPCH 2018) The Relationship between Personality and Self-Esteem towards University Students in Malaysia Eswari A/P Varanarasamma Avanish Kaur A/P Gurmit Singh University of Sains Malaysia University of Sains Malaysia [email protected] [email protected] Kavitha A/P Nalla Muthu University of Sains Malaysia [email protected] Abstract. This research investigated the relationship between personality traits and self-esteem among university students in Malaysia. The main objective of this research is to assess the relationship between personality traits and self-esteem among university students. This research examined the predictive value of Big Five Personality Factors for university students’ self-esteem and surveyed the gender difference in Big Five Personality Factors. Participants of this study were 515 university students (258 females and 257 males). The sampling method that was used in this study is purposive sampling. Two highly versatile instruments were used in this research which are Big Five Personality Factor's Scale (Goldberg, 1999) and Coopersmith’s Esteem Scale (CSEI). The Big Five Personality Inventory (BFI) is comprised of 44 items, Likert scale ranging from 1 (Strongly disagree) to 5 (Strongly agree). This instrument has five subscales which are extraversion (E), agreeableness (A), conscientiousness (C), openness (O) and neuroticism (N). The CSEI is a 58 item scale developed by Coopersmith (1967) to measure self-esteem. This scale was based on two options which are, “Like me” or “Unlike me”. Results show a significant positive correlation of self-esteem and personality. -

The Construts of Agreeableness.Pmd
39 The construct of agreeableness: Facet vs. item level analysis Rebecca A. Newgent, Sang Min Lee, Kristin K. Higgins, and Sean W. Mulvenon University of Arkansas Joanie V. Connors Fayetteville, Arkansas Abstract The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R) was developed to operationalize the Five-Factor Model of Personality. Using correlational analysis and confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis, the present study investigates the facet structure of the domain of Agreeableness of the NEO- PI-R at the facet and item level to assess which is a more appropriate level of analysis for interpretation. While the six Agreeableness facets fit the domain, the results of confirmatory factor analysis indicate that the original six facet model at the item level did not fit the data well. Exploratory factor analysis indicates that only 35 of the 48 items associated with the Agreeableness domain had salient loadings on their intended facet. Results indicate that performing item-level factor analysis can produce misleading or un-interpretable results. Implications for research and assessment are discussed. The Construct of Agreeableness: Facet vs. Item Level Analysis The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R; Costa & McCrae, 1992a) was originally developed in 1978 as the NEO Inventory. The NEO Inventory consisted of three domain scales and 18 facet scales which measured Neuroticism, Extraversion, and Openness to Experience (Costa & McCrae, 1992b). Scales, consisting of 18 items, were added in 1985 to measure the domains of Agreeableness and Conscientiousness, and the inventory was renamed the NEO Personality Inventory. These new domain scales were inadequate in capturing the complete personality picture as the number of items was limited. -

Agreeableness: a Dimension of Personality
CHAPTER 30 AGREEABLENESS: A DIMENSION OF PERSONALITY WILLIAM G. GRAZIANO TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY NANCY EISENBERG ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY This chapter is devoted to agreeableness as a dimension of personality. This review is composed of three parts. First, we will briefly review conceptualizations and definitions of the dimension, and summarize the history of research on the dimen sion. Second, we will consider theoretical perspectives on agreeableness. Finally, we will focus on a special case of agreeableness, the prosocial personality. I. CONCEPTUALIZATIONS OF AGREEABLENESS A. Historical Review of Labels for Agreeableness What is agreeableness? In the past, a basic dimension has been recognized, but it has received different labels from theorists. There may be disagreement on the origins and labels, but descriptions of the basic dimension for the phenomena of agreeableness show remarkable communalities. For example, Adler (1938/1964) suggested that successful resolution of all three problems requires Gemeinschafts- gefuhl, or "social interest," manifested in such traits as cooperation and empathy, selflessness, and identification with others. In keeping with the psychoanalytic ap- COPYRIGHT 0 1997 BY ACADEMIC PRESS. HANDBOOK OF PERSONAIITY PSYCHOLOGY 795 ALL ucins OF REPRooucnoN m ANY FORM RESERVED. 796 GRAZIANO AND EISENBERG proach to attachment, Horney (1945) linked the positive approach to others as part of dependency in response to feelings of inadequacy. Within the psychometric tradition, Fiske (1949) labeled the dimension "con formity/' In their reanalysis of six major studies, Digman and Takemota-Chock (1981) suggested the label "friendly compliance vs. hostile noncompliance." Hogan (1983) offered the label "likability." Digman and Inouye (1986) later suggested that their dimension of friendly compliance is similar, if not identical, to the "love-hate" dimension in circumplex models of personality (e.g., Leary, 1957). -

Macedonia, Tel: + 389 (0)2 3 23 54 00, Fax + 389 (0)2 3 23 55 00, E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract The aim of this study is to figure out possible connectedness between emotional intelligence and five big personality factors in female students selected from social sciences faculties. The evaluated sample comprised 66 healthy students, of Macedonian nationality, mean age 18.9 ± 0.63 years. As psychometric instruments, we used the EI-test and NEO-PI-R, both with eligible metric characteristic and already used in the Republic of Macedonia. Statistical analysis was performed using Sta17, both descriptive and inferential statistics including medians, standard deviations, and twotailed Pearson's correlation. The obtained results for emotional intelligence showedn average anxiety level (M = 77.35), extraversion (M = 50.91) and a realistic outlook on life (M = 81.64), high self-confidence (M = 44.44) and generally satisfactory empathy (M = 85.39). Personality characteristics obtained with NEO-PI-R showed high extroversion (M = 123. 70), low agreeableness (M = 105.82) and cons- ciousness (M = 104.67), as well as mild neuroticism (M = 91.33) and openness (M = 117.45). -
Narcissism, the Big Five Personality Traits, and Achievement Goal Orientation
International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education 2012, Volume 24, Number 1, 76-88 http://www.isetl.org/ijtlhe/ ISSN 1812-9129 Educating the Disagreeable Extravert: Narcissism, the Big Five Personality Traits, and Achievement Goal Orientation Joan Monahan Watson Virginia Tech Despite the fact that longitudinal data have been compiled over the past 30 years among undergraduate students in higher education settings regarding narcissism, the literature is devoid of empirical investigations that explore the relationships between narcissism and learning. Because the data suggest that narcissism scores are increasing each year among this population, an exploration of the relationship between narcissism and learning is timely and warranted. Sampling from university undergraduate students, this study uses the Narcissistic Personality Inventory, the Big Five Inventory, and the Achievement Goal Questionnaire to verify the known relationships between narcissism and the Big Five personality traits of extraversion and agreeableness; to verify the known relationships between the Big Five personality traits of extraversion and agreeableness and goal orientation; and to explore a previously undocumented empirical relationship between narcissism and performance goal orientation. Results of this exploratory study indicate that while narcissism does contribute to a performance goal orientation, it is not a substantial variable in determining achievement goal orientation in general. The study addresses the implications and limitations of this research in addition to areas for additional investigation. When considering those variables that impact contributes to the ambiguity of its definition and its student learning, it is often easy to overlook or empirical illusiveness. Beginning with Ellis’ otherwise discount the significance of individual (1898/2010) description of “Narcissus-like” behavior to personality and its role in the learning process. -
Neuroticism, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness and the Relationship with Individual Taxpayer Compliance Behavior
Neuroticism, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness and the Relationship with Individual Taxpayer Compliance Behavior Brian Huels University of Wisconsin-Whitewater K. Praveen Parboteeah University of Wisconsin-Whitewater Within the Big Five personality framework, past research has found that neuroticism, agreeableness, and conscientiousness tend to display a relationship with ethical behavior (Sacket & Wanek, 1996; Kolz, 1999; Kalshoven, Den Hartog, & DeHoogh, 2011). Although past research has explored the relationship between white-collar crime and personality (Blickle, Schlegel, Fassbender, & Klein, 2006; Turner, 2014), this study seeks to more narrowly look at the influence that personality (specifically, neuroticism, agreeableness, and conscitiousness) has on taxpayer compliance. As hypothesized, results provide support that taxpayer compliance behavior decreases when higher level of neuroticism and conscientiousness are present. INTRODUCTION “Tax evasion is a widespread phenomenon and continues to be a problem for many countries” (Tsakumis, Curatola, & Porcano, 2007, p. 132). Within the U.S., the tax gap, defined as the difference between what taxpayers owe and what is paid on a voluntarily and timely basis (Andreoni, Erard, & Feinstein, 1998), amounts to approximately $406 billion per year (Internal Revenue Service, 2016a). Sixty-five percent of this amount ($264 billion) can be sourced to the underreporting of income by individual taxpayers. Furthermore, “Although the IRS has initiated several initiatives to address the tax gap,” (Washburn & Fisher, 2012, p. 31) the tax gap has not seen any significant reduction in size. Given this information, studies aiming to better understand the compliance behavior of taxpayers are critical. Past tax research has referenced the inclusion of personality as a predictor variable. However, upon review, the actual items of measure within these studies were not necessarily personality variables as is understood by extent research.
