Cilj je ovog rada ispitati odnos dimenzija ličnosti petofaktorskog modela (ekstraverzije, ugodnosti, savjesnosti, neuroticizma i otvorenosti) i nekih stavova prema radu i organizaciji (zadovoljstva poslom, organizacijske odanosti i
zaokupljenosti poslom) s ukupnim tjelesnim simptomima, te pojedinim skupinama tjelesnih simptoma (muskuloskeletalnim, pseudoneurološkim, gastrointestinalnim, simptomima alergije i simptomima gripe). Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku od 214 bolničkih medicinskih sestara u Rijeci.
Hijerarhijske regresijske analize u kojima su kao prediktori ukupnih i pojedinih skupina tjelesnih simptoma u prvom koraku korištene crte ličnosti, a u drugom organizacijski stavovi pokazale su da crte ličnosti kao skup varijabli možemo smatrati prediktorima svih mjera tjelesnih simptoma osim simptoma alergije i gripe, te da organizacijski stavovi dodatno, nakon kontrole efekata crta ličnosti značajno povećavaju koeficijent multiple korelacije pri predikciji muskuloskeletalnih i pseudoneuroloških simptoma, simptoma gripe i ukupnih tjelesnih simptoma, povećavajući količinu objašnjene varijance za dodatnih 5 do 9%.
Iako crte ličnosti značajno prediciraju većinu mjera tjelesnih simptoma, dobiveni rezultati pokazuju da je značajan pozitivan prediktor jedino neuroticizam. Od stavova prema radu i organizaciji najvažniji je prediktor zadovoljstvo poslom,
koje značajno negativno predicira muskuloskeletalne i pseudoneurološke simptome, simptome gripe i ukupne tjelesne simptome, a pored njega, značajnim pozitivnim prediktorom pokazala se i instrumentalna odanost koja značajno
pozitivno predicira pseudoneurološke simptome te simptome alergije.The aim of this article was to examine relationships of Five-factor personality traits (extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness) and some job and organizational attitudes (job satisfaction, organizational
commitment, and job involvement) with various groups (musculoskeletal, pseudo neurological, gastrointestinal, allergies and flu health complaints) and with overall physical symptoms. Research was conducted on the sample of 214 hospital nurses in Rijeka.
The results of hierarchical regression analyses in which personality traits were included as predictor variables in the first and job and organizational attitudes in the second step show that personality traits significantly predicted all measures of physical symptoms except symptoms of allergies and flu health complaints, and that after controlling for personality traits job and organizational attitudes significantly increase the coefficient of multiple correlation in prediction of musculoskeletal, pseudo neurological, flu health complaints and overall physical symptoms, increasing accounted variance for additional 5 to 9 %. Although personality traits significantly predicted various groups of physical symptoms, the results obtained show that only neuroticism is significant positive predictor. Considering job and organizational attitudes, job satisfaction is significant negative predictor of musculoskeletal, pseudo neurological, flu health complaints and overall physical symptoms, while instrumental commitment is significant positive predictor of pseudo neurological symptoms and symptoms of allergies
