Summary
Personality theory states that one can predict how the others will act based on the personality. This theory shows that behavior can be determined by one's personality (Feist and Feist, 2009: 430). Alwisol (2009) states that personality is a general trait in the form of thoughts, activities, and feelings that affect systemically the overall behavior of a person. This study discusses the personality theory used to explain the effect of self-efficacy on auditor performance with motivation as an intervening variable. A person's behavior will be influenced by the nature of his personality, as well as in this study, the performance is positioned as a behavior that will later be influenced by self-efficacy and motivation which is positioned as personality traits. The nature of one's personality determines the way the individual behaves
