Abstract :
This study aims to examine the prevalence
rates of compulsive and histrionic characteristics among
pilots from diverse demographic backgrounds such as
South Asian, Middle Eastern, and Western pilots. The
research aims to identify differences in personality traits
and explore potential correlations within each ethnic
group of commercial pilots. The data was provided by
sixty pilots, equally representing three different ethnic
groups, with twenty participants in each demographic. To
collect the data, the researchers used a measuring tool
designed to reveal signs of mental disorders, known as the
Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI). According
to ANOVA results, there is a notable difference in
prevalence rates for compulsive and histrionic traits
among the three different ethnic groups (F (2,87) = 4.76, p
=0.00057). Overall, the results showed that South Asian
pilots had more compulsive traits than Middle Eastern
and Western pilots. On the other hand, Middle Eastern
pilots were found to have a higher occurrence of histrionic
traits compared to their counterparts from South Asia
and Westen pilots. The correlation analysis confirmed
that there was a substantial link between histrionic and
compulsive traits (r = 0.51, p < 0.05). A similar trend was
seen for Middle Eastern pilots, where a weakly positive
link (r = 0.24, p < 0.05) was visible. On the other hand, the
Western pilots showed a weak, inverse correlation
between compulsive and histrionic characteristics (r = -
0.14, p<00), displaying unique profiles within this group
in terms of their mutual interaction. These results offer a
profound understanding of the relationship between
ethnicity and personality traits in pilots.
