Abstract

Çalışma, psikodinamik nesne ilişkileri bağlamında kişilik konumları, psikolojik kişilik tipleri ve burçların kişilik özellikleri ile temel finansal davranışlar arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi üzerine kurgulanmıştır. Melanie Klein’in paranoid-şizoid ve depresif konumları, Myers-Briggs’in 16 kişilik tipi ile 12 burç üzerinden tanımlanan kişilik özellikleri kullanılarak insanların kişilik profillerine yönelik üç farklı zeminde bir betimleme yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın verileri doğrudan kişilere sorularak değil, daha objektif bulgulara ulaşmak adına ve tutum ve algıların elimine edilmesini sağlamak amaçlı olarak vekil yanıtlama şeklinde toplanmıştır. Temel finansal davranışlara ilişkin doğrudan yanıtların elde edilebilmesini kolaylaştırmak ve mnemik bir çağrışım yapabilmek ve bu sayede kişinin karakterinin kontürlerini belirgin hale getirebilmek amacıyla burçlar çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Bulgular kişilik profillerine ilişkin üç farklı zeminde karmaşıklık göstermekle birlikte bireylerin narsisistik nesne ilişkilerinin dikkat çekici biçimde bireylerin kendi şizoid pozisyonlarından daha öncelikli olduğunu işaret etmektedir. Bireylerin kendileri, empatik ilişkileri veya alturizmleri ile rasyonalite arasında anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmiş olmasına rağmen narsisizmin karmaşık sonuçlar verdiği anlaşılmaktadır. Ayrıca Myers-Briggs kişilik tiplerindeki temel ayrım olan içe dönüklük-dışa dönüklük başlıklarının da anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmesini kolaylaştırdığı anlaşılmaktadır. Burçlar ile ilgili ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ancak kurgusal olarak anlamsız sonuçlar elde edilmiştir.

Examination of Interdisciplinary Personality Profiles in Context of Financial Behaviors

Abstract

The study is based on examining the relationship between personality positions in the context of psychodynamic object relations, psychological personality types and personality traits of horoscopes and basic financial behaviors. By using Melanie Klein's paranoid-schizoid and depressive positions, Myers-Briggs' 16 personality types and personality traits defined through 12 zodiac signs, a description of people's personality profiles was made on three different grounds. Not by asking people directly, the data of the study were collected in the form of proxy reports in order to reach more objective findings and to eliminate attitudes and perceptions. Horoscopes were included in the study, so that a mnemic connotation could be made in the minds of the proxies and the contours of the characters of the persons could be made more prominent, thus making it easier to obtain direct answers to basic financial behaviors. Although the findings show complexity on three different grounds regarding personality profiles, these strikingly point out that individuals' narcissistic object relations take precedence over their own schizoid positions. Because although there is a significant difference between individuals themselves, their empathic relationships or altruism and rationality, as constructed within the framework of this study, it is understood that narcissism yields complex results. In addition, it is understood that it facilitates the detection of a significant difference in the introversion-extraversion dichotomy, which is the main distinction in Myers-Briggs personality types. Regarding horoscopes, statistically significant but logically meaningless results were obtained.
