Relationship Between Employment Pressure and Personality Traits of University Students
Objective To probe into the employment pressure of university students and its relation to personality traits.Method 197 students in Southwest University were tested with Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised
Short Scale for Chinese(EPQ-RSC) and Employment Pressure Questionnaire for College Students.Results The employment pressure of senior students was heavier than that of students from the other three grades(p<0.01)
and there was no statistically significant difference(p>0.05) in employment pressure of freshmen
sophomores and junior students;female students had heavier employment pressure than male students and the employment pressure of liberal arts students was greater than that of science and engineering students
the differences were statistically significant(p<0.01);Scores on extraversion(E) and psychoticism(P) were positively correlated with employment pressure and were statistically significant(p<0.05)
while score on neuroticism(N) was negatively correlated with employment pressure but there was no statistical significance(p>0.05).Conclusion The employment pressure of university students increases as their grade proceeds.The employment pressure of female students is heavier than that of male students and liberal arts students have greater employment pressure than science and engineering students.Extraversion(E) and psychoticism(P) are positively correlated with employment pressure.
