To fulfill the purpose of the study, a sample of 110 fourth-year student-teachers; 86 females & 24 male, of the English Department, in the Faculty of Education at Hodeidah University, was selected‎. ‎They enrolled in the four-year B.Ed. course. The Big Five Inventory (BFI) originally developed by John & Srivastava (1999) with little modification was distributed among the selected subjects. This inventory comprised of forty-four statements about the big five personality traits that are Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism and Openness. Collected data was analyzed by using simple descriptive and inferential statistical techniques such as mean, Pearson correlation, t-test and f-test. It was found that there is a relationship between the pre-service teachers' performance in Practicums I&II and their personality traits so pre-service teachers' personality DO influence their performance of teaching English. Also, pre-service teachers' personality traits of Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness are nearly same, so no significant difference found among male and females on these three traits. However, significant difference exists among the females and males on the trait of Neuroticism as female student-teacher score higher than males on this trait. Moreover, both male and female pre-service teachers ‎have quite good level of Extraversion and Agreeableness, and similar reasonable level of Conscientiousness ‎and Neuroticism but their level of Openness is a very low. It is recommended that Teacher Personality Development should be a part of teacher education programs and suggest some strategies for development of pre-service teachers’ personality.

This study was aimed to determine the impact of big five personality traits on academic achievement of prospective teachers. A quantitative study was conducted by using the casual comparative research design. A sample of 759 prospective teachers was selected through proportionate stratified random sampling technique from two public universities. Big Five personality traits inventory (BFI) was adopted to collect data. Data was analyzed by applying inferential statistics. The findings showed the significant impact of personality traits like conscientiousness, openness to experience on prospective teachers’ academic achievement i.e. CGPA, while the impact of rest of the three variables i.e. extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism on academic achievement was not statistically significant. Findings also revealed that female prospective teachers were more emotionally stable than male prospective teachers. Accordingly, academic achievement of prospective teachers was predicted (20%) by big five personality traits, therefore it is recommended that teacher education Institutes arrange training sessions or workshops for providing guidance to educators and prospective teachers, to understand that every student possess different level of personality traits which have a great impact on their academic achievement.

The Relationship

Returns depend upon decisions of investors, but investors biases challenge the ability to take rational decisions. Study of biases and their relationships with personality traits helps to understand how biases originate, the way in which they possibly effect investors, and which personality types could be more susceptible to them. There are evidences that biases have relationships with personality traits of investors and this study focuses on one such relationship between framing bias and personality traits. Given the qualitative nature of variables under study, the relationship was established by statistically significant coefficients of logistic regression equation, where bias-variable was dependent and big five personality traits were independent. The score of personality trait, which had significant relationship, was cross tabulated with bias variable, the chi square test indicated a statistically significant relationship. The results lead to conclusion that an investor with higher score of agreeableness has higher probability of having framing bias. It is also discussed that an agreeable person may demonstrate irrationality discussed in prospect theory, more as compared to others, as the framing effects were measured using gain and loss frames. Since the study deals with frames of communication, it indicates towards the effects of personality traits on communication between portfolio manager and clients. The study contributes for portfolio managers that an agreeable client may not actually agree for rational decision if the communication is not in right frame.
