Some personality differences among the multidisciplinary team.

Abstract

Professional and student psychologists, social workers, physiotherapists and occupational therapists were administered a demographic questionnaire, the Dogmatism Scale and the Personality Research Form. Significant and trend differences on each of these measures were obtained between the four professional groups, the professional and student groups and the professional groups and the norms for the measures. The possible role of these differences in the operation of the multidisciplinary team is discussed.
