Abstract/Summary

This study determines the personality correlates of vocational maturity among the college and theology seminarians in the Archdioceses of Capiz and Jaro and the Diocese of Kalibo. The study employed the descriptive-correlational-comparative design. Subjects were 113 seminarians, 91 in college and 22 in the theology level. The Modified Activities Index (MAI), Modified General Goals of Life Inventory (MGGLI), Panukat ng Ugali at Pagkatao (PUP) and Vocational Maturity Rating Form (VMRF) measured the seminarians' needs, values, traits and vocational maturity, respectively. The F-test and t-test determined the difference in the personality and vocational maturity of the college and theology seminarians. Multiple correlation was used to find out the relationship between personality and vocational maturity. To identify the predictor of vocational maturity, stepwise multiple regression analysis was used. Results of the study were -- no significant difference in the personality profile among seminarians significant difference among the seminarians' personality and vocational maturity low, average and high correlations among the needs, values and traits relationship between personality and vocational maturity Not supertitious (.241, p.019), Serving God (.284, p.006), Pagkasigurista (-.235, p.021).
