Abstract

Introduction: The objective of this study is to research personality trait differences across generations and the impact of age, gender and self-presentation on these traits. Methods: A total of 82,147 applicants (aged 17 to 24) for aviation training (pilot, air traffic controller), born between 1965 and 2002, were divided into three cohorts (Generation X, Y, Z). We analysed data from the temperament structure scales (TSS) personality questionnaire, which was collected during selection procedures between 1987 and 2019. Generational differences were analysed by ANCOVAs with generation and gender as group factors, controlled by age and self-presentation (social desirability).
