PHarmacist Caring for CRITically Ill and EMergency Medicine Patients and Big Five personality traits: PHARM-CRIT and EM BIG 5
According to the BFI, pharmacists had lower agreeableness, openness, and neuroticism as compared to controls. While this may suggest CCPs and EMPs possess traits that are advantageous in high-stress environments and promote safe medication use in critically ill patients, cautious extrapolation of these findings is warranted due to limitations in the control group and sample size. Future studies should aim to identify how the personality traits of CCPs and EMPs impact job performance, satisfaction, and burnout and contribute to the premature attrition of pharmacists.
