This paper describes a statistical analysis of the effectiveness of combining a career-oriented questionnaire with a personality questionnaire. The Career Anchors (CA) and Big-Five Personality (BFP) surveys were performed with university students who specialized in information sciences. The numbers of subjects who answered the CA and BFP surveys were 612 and 341, respectively. The usefulness of CA for the students was examined, and all item parameters were evaluated by item response theory, the Markov chain Monte Carlo method and Bayes’ theorem. The characteristics of each CA item for the subject group were clarified, as well as its statistical distribution. Additionally, statistical distribution was analyzed for BFP data. Several characteristic correlations were found between the CA items and the BFP items. The results suggest that the questionnaire, which combines these two types of questions, is applicable to students’ career development. |
