The present study is an attempt to understand the effect of Type A/B behaviour pattern among doctors and engineers. The respondents for the study were selected on random basis. It is clear from the findings that engineers experienced higher occupational role stress than doctors, and Type A personalities experienced higher occupational role stress than Type B personalities. It was also found that in both the personality types, profession played an important role as far as occupational role stress was concerned. Futhermore, in doctors, role of personality types was found to be significant, but in engineers the effect of personality types on occupational role stress was found to be neutral. - Reproduced.
