Abstract
This study attempts to relate accountants' perceptions of job‐related stress with their personality variables. Based on the conceptual framework of C.G. Jung's psychological personality typology, it was found that judging, thinking and sensing personality profile satisfactorily discriminates among accountants' perceptions of job‐related stress. Neither introverted nor extroverted accountants differ in their perceptions of stress.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
