本文探讨了人格的作用，以及个人陈述（ps）和以往学业成绩对未来医学培训成绩的预测效度。研究人员对176名医学生的申请心理量表进行了信息分类，并对其进行了为期1年的跟踪调查，并对(1)21种不同的评估（观察、考试、论文等）和(2)人格五因素模型（FFM）的维度进行了评估。PS信息的种类和PS信息的数量都不能预测未来的表现。然而，这两个以前的学习成绩（beta）。41和。45)和责任心（贝塔）。58和。49)，来自实况调查团，与医疗培训的成功有关。与以往的学习成绩相比，责任心也表现出了递增的效度。从特质复合体和特质方面讨论了人格在医学选择中的作用。
This paper explores the role of personality, and the predictive validities of personal statements (PSs) and previous academic performance in relation to future performance in medical training. One hundred and seventy-six medical students had their application PSs coded into information categories and were followed over a 1-year period and assessed on (1) 21 different assessments (observations, exams, essays, etc.) and (2) the dimensions of the five-factor model (FFM) of personality. Neither the PS information categories nor the amount of information in PSs were found to be predictive of future performance. However, both previous academic performance (Betas .41 and .45) and conscientiousness (Betas .58 and .49), from the FFM, were related to success in medical training. Conscientiousness also demonstrated incremental validity over previous academic performance. Implications concerning the role of personality in medical selection are discussed in terms of trait complexes and trait facets.
