RESPONSIBILITY AND CONSCIENTIOUSNESS OF SOLDIERS

Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2016, Vol 182, Issue 4

Abstract

The aim of the article is to introduce the issues of responsibility and conscientiousness. Its empirical part focuses on the presentation of the results of comparative studies performed among soldiers (n = 62) and civilians (n = 62) with regard to conscientiousness and responsibility. The Sense of Responsibility Scale by Romuald Debris and scales examining conscientiousness from NEO-PI-R questionnaire by Paul Costa and Robert McCrae were used for the study purposes. The results obtained show that, contrary to public opinion, soldiers are not more diligent and responsible than people working in civilian professions. Practical implications were subjected to discussion and further research directions have been proposed.
