The Relationship between the Factor Model of the Occupational Personality Questionnaires and the 16PF
Abstract
That R. B. Cattell, in the development of his model of personality in the late 1930s and early 1940s, made an outstanding contribution to the measurement of personality is widely recognised, and needs no further comment here. But it has, of course, been the potential applications of the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF) in the occupational field that has been of most interest to those working within personnel. Certainly, the 16PF came to be the preferred instrument for the assessment of personality in many organisations, and is now extensively used in occupational selection, placement and counselling.
