Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
This correlation study focused on the lack of understanding of the relationship between social self-image "face" and conflict styles among adult employees on school campuses.

This study, grounded in the five-factor model (FFM) of personality traits, self-efficacy, and stress theories, sought to determine whether self-assessments of the NEO-Five Factor Inventory, the Nursing Practice Self-Efficacy survey, and the Susceptibility Under Stress Survey …
