    Purpose - The aims of this concept paper are to critically review and identify gaps in current literature on personality
    and safety performance, provide a definition of personality and safety performance, explore the role of personality on
    safety performance, come out with recommendation for future research. Design/methodology/approach - Review and
    synthesis of literature. Findings - All dimensions of Big Five Personality (Openness to Experiences, Conscientiousness,
    Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism) have contributed to the safety performance. Research limitations/
    implications - Personality for this concept paper refers to the Model of Big Five. Future studies should explore other
    personality types such as Myers Briggs Personality and Holland Personality. Practical implications - The authors
    recommended that organizations need to design test of personality specially for safety and health and use it during the
    interview session in order to select the right candidate to serve them for enhancing safety performance. Originality/
    value - This concept paper offers a set of interesting lessons for organizations by providing the positive personality
    that must be apply by employees based on Big Five Personality model that will assist to improve safety performance.

    Games are an increasingly popular approach for conservation teaching. However, we know little about the effectiveness of the games on students' experiences and knowledge acquisition. Many current games are supplemental games (SG) that have no meaningful interaction with the subject matter. We adapted the experiential gaming (EG) model where students were immersed in goal-orientated tasks found in real-life situations, and they tackled questions to complete actions for their main task. Classroom-based games were created for eight different conservation topics for an annual Wildlife Conservation Course and an annual Diploma in International Wildlife Conservation Practice. Data were collected over two cycles, a total sample size of 55 multinational students. We used a combination of repeated-measures design and counterbalanced measures design; each student was subjected at least twice to each of the EG and didactic instruction (DI) treatments, and at least once to the SG approach. We compared students' perception, learning and behavioural responses to the treatments, including measures of student personality types and learning styles as explanatory variables. Findings revealed multiple benefits of the classroom EG compared to the DI approach, such as increased attention retention, increased engagement and added intrinsic motivation. The improved level of intrinsic motivation was mainly facilitated by increased social bonding between participants. Further, we show that this EG approach appeals to a wide range of learning styles and personalities. The performance of SG was generally intermediate between that of EG and DI. We propose EG as a beneficial complement to traditional classroom teaching and current gamified classes for conservation education.

    A person with Type A personality is an 'aggressor' compared with the rarely harried Type B. Although debrisoquine hydroxylase (CYP2D6) capacity has been associated with personality, no study has specifically investigated its association with personality Type A and B. Therefore the aim of this research was to study the impact of CYP2D6 on Type A and B personality.
