Struktura osobowości a poziom samoakceptacji u osób bezrobotnych w ujęciu analizy transakcyjnej

Abstract

The paper sought to define the relationship between the level of self-acceptance and the structure of personality in the long-term and short-term unemployed. A group of 120 unemployed people was examined (64 women and 56 men). There were 33 long-term and 31 short-term unemployed women. In the group of men 27 were long-term and 29 short-term unemployed. The average age of the subjects was 35 years. 32% of the subjects completed primary and vocational secondary education, 53% secondary education, and 15% had university degrees. The level of self-acceptance and the structure of personality according to the transactional analysis were determined on the basis of Gough’s and Heilbrunn’s Adjective Check List. The subjects were asked to do the test according to the instruction: “what are you like?” The correlation between the level of self-acceptance and the results in the scale of the transactional analysis of the ACL Test manifested considerable relations between the level of self-acceptance in the unemployed men and the state of personality – a caring Parent, an Adult, and an adopted Child; between the level of self-acceptance in the unemployed women and the state of personality: a caring Parent, an Adult, a free Child, and an adapted Child.
