“…Our results have been confirmed by other researchers for the general population [ 81 , 82 ]. Physicians with increased agreeableness will be able to adapt to the situation more easily by finding opportunities, but also solutions to problems related to both work and personal life [ 83 ]. Doctors who have low emotional stability will have less time available for the family because they will worry and focus on negative events [ 83 ].…”

Occupational stress amongst doctors has been intensively studied as doctors are exposed to several stress factors daily. The purpose of this study was to investigate if there are associations between personality dimensions and the factors that generate stress at work. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 280 medical doctors from Romania between February 2021 and September 2021 who were evaluated using the DECAS and ASSET Scales. Our results showed that the agreeableness and emotional stability dimensions of personality, according to the Big Five model, were statistically associated with work relationships (A p < 0.0001; ES p = 0.0005), work-life balance (A p = 0.008; ES p = 0.01), overload (A p = 0.01; ES p = 0.001), job security (A p < 0.0001; ES p = 0.002), job control (A p = 0.001; ES p = 0.009), resources and communication (A p = 0.0002; ES p < 0.0001), and job conditions (A p = 0.005; ES p = 0.03). The conscientiousness dimension was statistically associated with job control (p = 0.02). Doctors from different specialties experienced stress differently, with psychiatrists and doctors from preclinical specialties reporting the lowest levels of stress. Internists and surgeons reported higher levels of stress. This study showed that the dimensions of agreeableness and emotional stability were both associated with variables indicative of the level of stress felt at work.

“…Conscientiousness is the predictor of well-being and health. People with conscientiousness and agreeableness have a positive mindset towards their work (Wickramaaratchi & Perera, 2018). Personality significantly impacts work-life coordination, which is positively correlated with conscientiousness but negatively correlated with neuroticism.…”

“…Women academicians who are highly conscientious face some problems in their work-life balance due to their high involvement with their work (Opie & Henn, 2013). Furthermore, researchers indicated a positive relationship between agreeableness, conscientiousness, openness, and extraversion with work-life while a negative relationship of neuroticism with both domains (Wickramaaratchi & Perera, 2018). The personality of women academicians plays an essential role in building a nation, and human resource managers should recognize the traits of personality when they involve in recruitment and selection practices (Aziz et al, 2014).…”

This research strives to explain the impact of personality type on the work-life balance of women academicians. With the positivist paradigm and quantitative approach, this study has been conducted with a survey methodology. Data was collected from 362 women academicians on adopted instruments and analyzed with multiple regression and ANOVA tests. Results revealed a positive effect of agreeableness, extraversion, and openness personality types on work-life balance. Those women academicians who are with agreeableness personalities are more in a capacity to manage their work-life balance. The results also show a difference in managing the work-life balance between those who are single and married, those who belong to a nuclear family, and those who belong to joint or extended families. This study will facilitate them to develop the personality type which has more capacity to manage work-life balance. It will help policymakers to facilitate women academicians to ensure better work-life balance.JEL Classification: M12How to Cite:Shahin, S., Baloch, M. N., Shaikh, N., Ibrahim, I., & Abbassi, A. A.
