TL;DR: The authors examined the prevalence of myths about personality traits as set out in a book and beliefs in the predictive validity of personality tests and found that participants thought tests predicted leadership and depression best, and longevity and future earnings least well.

TL;DR: Hidayatullah et al. as mentioned in this paper used the MCDL Day's instrument as a personality measurement tool compared to the Papikostick test, which had previously been tested on 1123 people with the age of 20-30 years, and the results showed that the reliability test of the composite score is 0.616 with the results of the CFA loading factor 0.832.
Abstract: In the working world, the personality of a worker or employee is one of the crucial things to know. Personality can be seen from various things, including behavior patterns, to understand better how someone acts in certain situations. This study looks at the MCDL Day's Instrument as a personality measurement tool compared to the Papikostick test. This research method uses a cross-sectional quantitative approach. The research subjects were 235 people aged 17-34 years. The reliability test used a composite score. The validity test used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and concurrent criteria. The results showed that the reliability test of the composite score is 0.616 with the results of the CFA loading factor 0.30 with 18 valid items and four dimensions explaining 23% of the variables. For the criteria validity, there is no significant relationship between the MCDL Day's instrument and the dimensions in Papikostick. This study aims to develop and identify MCDL (Motivation, Cooperation, Discipline, and Leadership) Day's personality measurement tool in a working context. So the measuring tool used is MCDL Day's as an instrument to measure the constructs of motivation, cooperation, discipline, and leadership by paying attention to the personality theory of Needs from Murray and Papi Kostick from Kostick, which had previously been tested on 1123 people with the age of 20-30 years. The reliability test uses a composite score with a stratified alpha coefficient. Validity test using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The reliability test result is 0.832 (Hidayatullah & Thaibah, 2022). The validity used is the validity of content and the validity of criteria. Content validity is a test of validity estimated through testing on this test with rational analysis or professional judgment. While the validity of the criteria is the ability of a measuring instrument to measure a particular symptom in the present, then compare it to other measuring instruments for the same construct. Standardized measuring instruments can be the criteria for the newly created measuring instruments that need testing validity. In this research, the Papikostick test is used as a standardized measuring tool to compare MCDL Day’s validity.
