Abstract
- This paper addresses the importance of understanding the personality traits of teachers and their impact on the educational process. It mentions the existence of stable personality traits and variable personality states that vary over time. It also refers to the five-factor personality model (FFM), which includes the domains of Extraversion, Affability, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness to Experience. The study is carried out in the context of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Ecuador, where professors perform functions related to teaching, research, extension, and academic management. It is noted that emotional contagion between teachers and students can be relevant in this environment. The paper presents a qualitative analysis based on a Neutrosophic Cognitive Map (NCM) of nine personality traits: Empathy, Openness to Experience, Introversion, Emotional Stability, Kindness and Respect, Flexibility, Excessive Authoritarianism, Neuroticism and Egocentrism. The causal relationships between these traits are highlighted, emphasizing the importance of empathy as a central factor. It discusses how traits such as empathy, kindness, patience, and emotional stability contribute to a positive and productive learning environment. Furthermore, it is noted that the modification of negative traits, such as excessive authoritarianism and egocentrism, can improve the professional development of teachers and benefit students in the long term. Finally, this study is compared with previous research, and it highlights that the results may vary. For example, a study that did not find significant relationships between personality traits and teaching performance is mentioned, while this study suggests that excessive authoritarianism and egocentrism can affect communication with students and the quality of training.
