Abstract

The purpose of the study was to investigate differences in personality characteristics between high and low-rated, open and traditional primary teachers. Teachers were evaluated through use of a modified observation Rating Scale and by subjective supervisory judgment based on five areas of assessment. Open teachers received in-service training in open classroom techniques while traditional teachers received no special training. Responses to the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule and the Thurstone Temperament Schedule were analyzed. The research design consisted of 2x2 multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) to determine significant difference. The results of the study indicated that no significant personality differences existed between high and low-rated, open and traditional primary teachers.
