Personality and work ethic vs. workaholism: temperament, personality traits, and work-valuing beliefs as predictors of compulsive and excessive work
The results of the study show that high arousability, i.e., the ease of responding with emotional arousal, and beliefs that value work, such as viewing work as a value and a duty, are important in predicting levels of workaholism. High activity, understood as vigor and sociability, as well as low agreeableness, are weaker predictors of work addiction. Med Pr Work Health Saf. 2025;76(5):385-395.
