Two instruments were used: ATPH - Avaliação dos Tipos Profissionais de Holland and BFP - Bateria Fatorial de Personalidade. Significant correlations were found between the factor Openness and the Artistic type, as well as between the factor Conscientiousness and the Social and Enterprising types, and between the factor Agreeableness with the Social type. Neuroticism showed no significant correlation with the typologies.
