Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between personality traits (“dark” (i.e. Dark Triad) and “bright” (i.e. HEXACO)) and vocational interests (i.e. RIASEC) in individualist (UK) culture (Hofstede, 1991; Schwartz, 2006), achieved by considering Individualism-Collectivism (I-C) Theory within a group of undergraduate samples in the UK. The participants were 445 individualist undergraduate students. The results provide suggestions: Apart from other relations, Extraversion (part of ‘bright’ side) and Dark Triad personality traits are positively, while Honesty-humility (part of ‘bright’ side) is negatively related with Enterprising, suggesting that these could be considered together when examining the relationship between personality and vocational interests. Limitations, implications and further studies are discussed.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, bireyci (BK) kültürde kişilik özellikleri (“karanlık” (yani Karanlık Üçlü) ve “parlak” (yani HEXACO)) ile mesleki ilgi alanları (yani RIASEC) arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktır (Hofstede, 1991; Schwartz, 2006), Birleşik Krallık'taki bir grup lisans örneği içinde Bireycilik-Kolektivizm (IC) Teorisini dikkate alarak elde edildi. Katılımcılar 445 bireyci lisans öğrencisiydi. Sonuçlar öneriler sunar: Diğer ilişkilerin yanı sıra Dışadönüklük ('parlak' tarafın bir parçası) ve Karanlık Üçlü kişilik özellikleri olumlu, Dürüstlük-alçakgönüllülük ('parlak' tarafın bir parçası) ise Girişimcilik ile olumsuz yönde ilişkilidir ve bunların olabileceğini düşündürür kişilik ve mesleki çıkarlar arasındaki ilişkiyi incelerken birlikte ele alınır. Sınırlamalar, çıkarımlar ve daha ileri çalışmalar tartışılmaktadır.
