This study tests the application of the HEXACO among Catholic priests and the power of this six factor model of personality to predict scores on the Francis Burnout Inventory among priests. Data provided by 264 priests serving in Italy lead to two conclusions. In this population three of the six scales of the HEXACO failed to display adequate levels of internal consistency reliability (emotionality, agreeableness, openness to experience). High scores of extraversion and conscientiousness predicted higher scores of satisfaction in ministry. Low scores of extraversion, conscientiousness, and honesty and humility predicted higher scores of emotional exhaustion in ministry. The role of the honesty and humility factor in predicting negative affect but not positive affect supports the balanced affect model of professional burnout that views positive and negative affect as partly independent systems.
本研究测试了HEXACO人格模型在天主教神父中的应用，以及这种六因素人格模型预测神父在弗朗西斯倦怠量表上得分的能力。由在意大利服务的264名神父提供的数据得出了两个结论。在这一群体中，HEXACO的六个量表中有三个未能显示出足够水平的内部一致性信度（情绪性、宜人性、经验开放性）。外向性和尽责性得分高预测了在神职工作中更高的满意度得分。外向性、尽责性、诚实谦逊得分低预测了在神职工作中更高的情绪耗竭得分。诚实谦逊因素在预测消极情绪而非积极情绪方面的作用支持了职业倦怠的平衡情绪模型，该模型将积极情绪和消极情绪视为部分独立的系统。
