Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to explore the relationships between personality characteristics including neuroticism, extroversion, and agreeableness, openness to experience and conscientiousness and job performance of police officers. One hundred forty eight police officers participated in the study and completed research questionnaires. Correlation coefficients indicated that neuroticism was negatively correlated with job performance; conscientiousness, agreeableness, and extraversion were positively correlated with job performance; and no correlation was found between openness and job performance. Regression analysis revealed that among five personality characteristics, conscientiousness and extroversion predicted job performance significantly. Finally, findings based on five factor model of personality have been discussed.
