Abstract:: |
Objective To explore the personality features of nuclear power plant operators and the influencing factors thereof. Methods Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory was used to examine the personality features of 136 nuclear power plant operators randomly selected from 2 cooperative units, all males. The results were compared with the nationwide norms and subsequently an inter-block contrast analysis was carried out. Results Obvious difference was observed in the final scores between the nuclear power plant operators and nationwide norms. The former got higher scores on hysteria (t=3.05,P<0.05), and lower scores on hypochondriasis, depression, morbid personality, masculinity-femininity, paranoia, psychasthenia, schizophrenia, hypomania, and social introversion ( t =7.47,7.47,7.31,2.23,15.09,16.15,19.28,7.88,11.10, P <0.05).The scores on hypochondriasis, depression, schizophrenia, and social introversion of those with the length of services over 3 years were all significantly higher than those of with the length of services less than 3 years ( t =3.25,2.51,2.76,3.00, P <0.05). The scores on hypochondriasis, depression, psychopathicdeviate, and social introversion of the operators aged over 30 were all significantly higher than those of the operators aged below 30 ( t =2.36,2.35,2.01,2.54, P <0.05). Conclusions The psychological quality of the nuclear power plant operators is superior to that of the general population. |
