| dc.description.abstract | Human differences and how these differences affectpeople's daily lives have been for a long time, the subject of interest among personality psychologists. Thus, an understanding of the relationship between personality traits and career interest is very important. The objectives of the current study were: First, to investigate the relationship between personality traits of extraversion and agreeableness and career choices, secondly, to find out if within a personality trait, there were variations by levels of academic ability in career choices, and finally, to find out whether career choices differed between boys and girls of the same personality trait. A sample of 369 Form IV students, of whom 161 were males, and 208 were females completed Extravert-Introvert Personality Scale, Agreeable-Less Agreeable Personality Scale, and Career Check List. The data were subjected to statistical analysis using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), Version 15.0. The findings showed that 62% of the introverts, 61.9% of the agreeables, and 55.6% of the extraverts chose computation skills occupations. The findings further revealed that, high academic ability subjects chose occupations in science related fields by 67.4% of the introverts, 66.3% of agreeables, 62.0% of less agreeables, and 59.8% of the extraverts. Low academic ability respondents chose occupations within social services, by about 59.4% of extraverts, 56.5% of introverts, and 54.7% of the less agreeables. On the other hand, about 63.5% of the agreeables with low academic abilities chose computation skills occupations. It was further revealed that there were no sex differences within extraversion personality trait in career preferences, while the study showed sex differences within agreeableness personality trait. It has been recommended that the best way to make students choose occupations which match their personality traits, sex, and academic ability, was through the establishment of a proper occupational and educational guidance and counselling services in school environments. | en_US |
