On being open to change the world: Boundary conditions of the relationship between openness and performance
Openness to experience has been shown to predict performance criteria only inconsistently. This inconsistency is reflected not only by the main effects but also by potential moderators examined in different studies, with mixed results. Drawing on Trait Activation Theory (TAT) and Situational Strength (SS), the study proposed and tested a model that accounts for the multiple interactions among openness, creativity requirements, and climate for initiative in predicting task performance and change-oriented citizenship behaviors (OCBCH). Hypotheses were tested employing hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) to account for the hierarchical structure of the data. Results showed positive associations between openness and the two facets of performance. The data showed an interaction between openness and climate for initiative in predicting task performance and a three-way interaction between openness, creativity requirements, and climate for initiative in predicting OCBCH. Contrary to the initial assumption, and irrespective of creativity requirements, openness seemed to matter most to performance when the climate for initiative was low rather than high.
期刊介绍:
Personality and Individual Differences is devoted to the publication of articles (experimental, theoretical, review) which aim to integrate as far as possible the major factors of personality with empirical paradigms from experimental, physiological, animal, clinical, educational, criminological or industrial psychology or to seek an explanation for the causes and major determinants of individual differences in concepts derived from these disciplines. The editors are concerned with both genetic and environmental causes, and they are particularly interested in possible interaction effects.
