Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Personality is the unique and relatively stable patterns of behavior, thoughts, and emotions shown by individuals. Or, personality refers to the lasting ways in which any one person is different from all others. The Big Five dimensions of personality have been shown by research to be strongly related to work performance across many occupations and measures of performance. Conscientiousness has shown the strongest association, with emotional stability second. Other dimensions have shown strong relationships within specific aspects of work or occupational types. For example, people who are highly extroverted tend to succeed in managerial and sales jobs.
