Résumé : | This study builds up on the theory of Psychological Ownership and explores the Big Five Inventory (BFI) personality traits as its antecedents. The purpose of the paper is to pursue the investigation of factors that influence the emergence of psychological ownership feelings and to study the individual differences. Our quantitative study sampled a total of 236 young professionals who completed an auto-evaluation survey. The BFI predictors of organizational psychological ownership were tested using structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis. After breaking down the BFI traits in facets, our study found that all five personality traits at least partially predict psychological ownership toward the organization. Furthermore, gender differences have been identified. We found that the agreeableness facet is a stronger predictor of ownership feelings for men than for women. Illustrations are drawn from our study that give rise to a discussion about significant practical implications about psychological ownership feelings for individuals and organizations. |
