Abstract
VEGA-DIENSTMAIER, Johann M.. Personality characteristics related to the mentoring process. Rev Neuropsiquiatr [online]. 2023, vol.86, n.1, pp.30-34. Epub Apr 27, 2023. ISSN 0034-8597. http://dx.doi.org/10.20453/rnp.v86i1.4464.
A narrative review about the relationship between the mentoring (mentorship) process and the personality of mentors and mentees was made. It was found that the conditions that favor a successful mentoring process are low neuroticism levels, high consciousness, high extraversion, intermediate agreeableness, intermediate openness, internal locus of control, low narcissism, and concordance between neuroticism levels of mentor and mentee. In the case of self-monitoring, the results are contradictory. In view of the scarcity of studies about the relationship between personality and mentoring, it is recommended to carry out specific research on this topic, particularly in the medical education field.
