Vocational Personality Types and Perceived
Job Performance in Bankers and Teachers in Pakistan: Role of Occupational
Self-Efficacy as Mediator
A cross-sectional study was conducted to explore the relationship between vocational personality types (Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional) and perceived job performance through occupational self-efficacy among bankers and school teachers in Pakistan. The sample comprised of 121 bankers with age range of 22 to 54 years (M=31.06, SD=6.03), and 119 schoolteachers with age range of 19 to 56 years (M=32.13, SD=7.70). 18 REST; RIASEC Examination Self Report Test (Ambiel, et al., 2018); Occupational self-efficacy scale; short version (Riggoti et al., 2008); and Individual Work Performance Questionnaire (Koopman, 2015) were used to assess vocational personality types, occupational self-efficacy and perceived work performance respectively. Structural Equation Modeling through Smart PLS revealed that among bankers, occupational self-efficacy mediated the relationship between social and enterprising personality types and job performance. Whereas, among teachers; social personality type positively predicted job performance independently. The current study has valuable implications in educational as well as organizational setup in preparing or selecting the right person for the right job.
