Coaching, goal-setting and personality type: What matters?
Anne Scoular & Prof. Alex Linley

In an experimental between-subjects design with two conditions, goal-setting and non-goal-setting, coaching occurred under standardised procedures, and both coach and coachee completed the MBTI and NEO PI-R questionnaires and post-coaching evaluations.
