<br />APPENDIX. A <br />SA.I\1PLE PSYCHOLOGICAL REPORT <br /> <br />High <br />Need For <br />Freedom <br /> <br />Interview <br />Probes: <br /> <br />Reference <br />Probe <br />Questions: <br /> <br />This person scores somewhat high on the measure of need for personal <br />freedom, People who score high on this measure sometimes desire latitude in <br />how they work. They may tend to resist what they feel is close control or over <br />management of their activities. <br /> <br />(Note: In some job positions, typically high level positions or other jobs requiring <br />independent action and decision making, a high need for freedom is less <br />problematic and more acceptable. A high need for freedom can be much more <br />problematic in highly structured jobs where the incumbent must be willing to <br />follow rules, take close direction, go by the book, etc,) <br /> <br />During the interview, ask him to describe the type of environment in <br />which he does his best work and the type of environment that would not <br />be a good fit for him. Listen for responses that suggest rebelliousness <br />or difficulty in accepting direction from others. <br />Ask him to describe the type of management style that suits him most <br />and the type that suits him least. Listen for responses that suggest he <br />has difficulty taking direction. <br /> <br />When talking with his references ask the following types of questions. <br /> <br />"Compared to his peers (other people in similar positions), how would <br />you describe this person's ability to accept guidance and take direction <br />without undue resistance?" <br />"How would you describe managing this person?"
