Researchers urging that a successful telecommuting arrangement consist of the right job or the right person allude to a well developed research stream regarding the fit between the person and the environment (Kristoff-Brown, Zimmerman & Johnson, 2005). The general idea of "fit" theory is that a person will be more successful in a job if there is a congruence between the person and the environment or job (Carless, 2005; Holland, 1997). In this study, we extended the basic logic of fit theories to focus on the fit between an individual's personality and the type of work arrangement.

520 $a Researchers urging that a successful telecommuting arrangement consist of the right job or the right person allude to a well developed research stream regarding the fit between the person and the environment (Kristoff-Brown, Zimmerman & Johnson, 2005). The general idea of "fit" theory is that a person will be more successful in a job if there is a congruence between the person and the environment or job (Carless, 2005; Holland, 1997). In this study, we extended the basic logic of fit theories to focus on the fit between an individual's personality and the type of work arrangement.
520 $a In Study 1, we developed a cohesive, multi-faceted questionnaire for measuring attitudes toward telecommuting using a sample of students at a large Southeastern University. Factor analysis was used to identify a four factor solution, establish internal consistency, and select items for inclusion in Study 2.
520 $a In Study 2, we further refined and re-validated the telecommuting attitudes scale with a separate sample, and examined the relationship between personality (measured with the IPIP) and telecommuting attitudes. After additional analysis, we finalized a 38-item version of the telecommuting attitudes scale with excellent internal consistency (alpha = .91) and four meaningful factors each had good to very good internal consistency (alpha ranging from .81 to .85).
520 $a Upon examination of the results from regression analysis, we found that emotional stability had a significant, negative relationship with overall telecommuting attitudes. Agreeableness and conscientiousness showed significant, positive relationships with telecommuting attitudes in at least one of the regression models examining specific factors within the overall scale. However, the amount of variance in telecommuting attitudes explained by personality was low in all of our models, indicating that relationships between telecommuting attitudes, personality, demographic, and situational variables are likely complex.
520 $a In addition to providing a broad scale for measuring telecommuting attitudes that has very good internal consistency and a meaningful four-factor solution, our research took the vital first step of exploring relationships between personality and telecommuting attitudes and identified emotional stability as a significant influence. We discuss the strengths and limitations of our research and highlight several implications and future research directions.
