چکیده:
Personality traits and their relation with emotional intelligence and psychological
ownership (PO) have to be considered in public-sector organizations, because
employees who work in the public sector may have fewer mechanisms to increase
their feelings of PO toward their organization. Thus, with regard to conditions of
public organizations, more attention should be paid to structural and organizational
contexts while investigating the relations between personality traits, emotional
intelligence and PO. The aim of the research is to probe the effect of personality
traits on PO in a public organization with regard to the mediating role of emotional
intelligence. SPSS and Smart PLS software applications were used to test the
research hypotheses. Data were collected from 384 participants, engaged in a public
organization administrative department. The results revealed that traits, including
extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, openness and neuroticism influence
emotional intelligence; emotional intelligence, in turn, is positively associated with
PO; these personality traits are directly associated with PO and influence PO
indirectly through emotional intelligence.

Faculty Member at Management Studies and Technology Development Center of Tarbiat Modares University, Tehran, Iran (Received: July 19, 2017; Revised: March 27, 2018; Accepted: April 28, 2018) Abstract Personality traits and their relation with emotional intelligence and psychological ownership (PO) have to be considered in public-sector organizations, because employees who work in the public sector may have fewer mechanisms to increase their feelings of PO toward their organization.
Thus, with regard to the special cultural characteristics of the Iranian people such as collectivism and high levels of power distance and special conditions of public organizations such as formality, hierarchy and bureaucracy, greater attention is needed in considering cultural, structural and organizational context for investigating relations between personality traits, emotional intelligence and PO.
In consequence, the ASA model leads to an increase in homogeneity in personality traits and emotional intelligence of employees within one job and organization (Menges & Bruch, 2009).
