Abstract
This study examined the relationship between quality of work-life (QWL) and personality in radiation therapists (RTs). The Myers- Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality test was administered to 75 RTs in November 2000 at a Cancer Centre in Ontario, Canada. A QWL survey (measuring job satisfaction, burnout, social support at work and work-family conflict) was administered to all 410 staff at the same centre in January 2001 (including the RTs, who indicated their MBTI personality type on the QWL survey). Although RTs reported satisfactory QWL scores, RT scores were significantly lower than scores for other centre employees. No relationship was found between QWL and personality type for RTs.
