<P> The Association for Psychological Science (APS), however, recently commissioned a report whose conclusion indicates that no significant evidence exists to make the conclusion that learning - style assessments should be included in the education system . The APS also suggested in their report that all existing learning styles have not been exhausted and that there could exist learning styles that have the potential to be worthy of being included in educational practices . Thus it is premature, at best, to conclude that the evidence linking the Big Five to "learning styles", or "learning styles" to learning itself, is valid . </P> <P> Within organizational communication, personality is taken into account of how a person carries themselves in the workplace .

Job outcome measures include job and training proficiency and personnel data . However, research demonstrating such prediction has been criticized, in part because of the apparently low correlation coefficients characterizing the relationship between personality and job performance . In a 2007 article co-authored by six current or former editors of psychological journals, Dr. Kevin Murphy, Professor of Psychology at Pennsylvania State University and Editor of the Journal of Applied Psychology (1996--2002), states: </P> <Dl> <Dd> The problem with personality tests is...that the validity of personality measures as predictors of job performance is often disappointingly low . The argument for using personality tests to predict performance does not strike me as convincing in the first place . </Dd> </Dl>
