Introduction:
Selecting a college major is a critical decision with long-term implications. While personality assessments like the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) explore person-career fit, radiographers' personality profiles and their relationship with professional quality of life remain uninvestigated. This study aims to identify predominant MBTI types among radiographers and examine their correlation with career satisfaction facets, including compassion satisfaction, burnout, and secondary traumatic stress.
Methods:
Cross-sectional, quantitative study was conducted among radiographers in public healthcare setups in Bahrain. Participants (n = 98) completed an online MBTI assessment and a survey comprising demographic questions and the Professional Quality of Life Scale (ProQOL). Data were analyzed for descriptive statistics and one-way ANOVA.
Results:
The most prevalent personality types were ESTJ (21.1 %) and ESFJ (18.4 %), with the Sentinel (SJ) temperament group comprising 50 % of the sample. The sample was characterized by preferences for Extraversion (60.5 %), Sensing (63 %), Feeling (63.2 %), and Judging (76.3 %). No statistically significant relationships were found between the 16 MBTI types and the ProQOL subscales of Compassion Satisfaction, Burnout or Secondary Traumatic Stress.
Conclusion:
A distinct MBTI profile is prevalent among radiographers, yet no significant association with ProQOL-measured career satisfaction was found. This suggests satisfaction is influenced by factors beyond personality. The findings provide a foundational typology and call for longitudinal studies on the personality-profession interplay.
Implications For Practice:
The common profile (ESTJ/ESFJ) does not predict job satisfaction, refining recruitment into a guide rather than a filter. This informs tailored education and career mentoring, enhancing support for all profession members beyond typological constraints.
