This relationship may be over simplified due to the assumption of unidimensonality present in self-report measurement. We employed data collected using a new response format combining a funnel response format with Item Response Tree modeling to account for three proposed underlying processes of personality: adaptability, traitedness, and trait level. Job flexibility was found to be a significant predictor while conscientiousness was negative. Given that our results differed from past studies, this relationship may not be linear."en-USJob satisfactionAdaptability (Psychology)PersonalityPresentation
