摘要本研究考虑了个人风格以及个人风格与环境约束和机会的契合度对工作绩效、工作退缩和工作满意度的影响。个人风格被定义为个人在七个与工作相关的人格变量中的模式。通过聚类分析得出的八个特征模式中的一个描述了367名海军士兵中的每个人的个人风格。环境约束和机会被定义为跨九个度量的工作组模式。通过聚类得出的五个特征模式之一描述了114个工作组中每个工作组的心理环境。多重判别分析表明，在整个组织和特定环境中，个人风格预测了不同的工作结果——工作绩效、工作满意度和工作退缩。讨论的重点是模式在增强对人与环境契合度的理解中的作用。结论是，模式战略可能有助于提高职业咨询的长期有效性，并有助于组织将个人置于使其满意度和生产力最大化的环境中。
Abstract The present study considered the influence of personal style, and the fit between personal style and environmental constraints and opportunities, on job performance, job withdrawal, and job satisfaction. Personal style was defined as an individual′s pattern across seven job-relevant personality variables. One of eight characteristic patterns, derived through cluster analysis, described the personal style of each of 367 Navy enlisted personnel. Environmental constraints and opportunities were defined as a workgroup′s pattern across nine measures. One of five characteristic patterns, derived through clustering, described the psychological environment within each of 114 workgroups. Multiple discriminant analyses demonstrated that personal style predicted differential job outcomes - job performance, job satisfaction, and job withdrawal - both across the organization and within particular environments. Discussion focused on the role of patterns in enhancing the understanding of person-environment fit. It was concluded that a pattern strategy might prove useful in improving the long-term validity of vocational counseling and in assisting organizations to place individuals in environments that maximize their satisfaction and productivity.
