Abstract

The methodological concept of trading behavior, as an important part of business effectiveness, is based on an assumption that assessment of its construct has a multidimensional structure. The objective of the presented research, which included the participation of 110 traders, was to identify and specify the trading behavior assessment factors. The paper presents the results of the factor analysis of the self-report methodology labeled as TBQ-T (Trading Behavior Questionnaire—Traders). Principal Component Analysis with Varimax Rotation enabled the extraction of three factors: Proactive Behavior of Trader, Manipulative Behavior of Trader, and Distressed Behavior of Trader. Meaningfulness of the extracted factors was supported by the Cronbach’s alpha values. Assessment of the extracted TBQ-T factors by traders did not confirm the existence of statistically significant correlations, but confirmed the existence of statistically significant differences, with the highest degree of agreement expressed by the respondents in the factor of Proactive Behavior of Trader, the lowest one in the factor of Distressed Behavior of Trader. Based on the acquired analysis results it is possible to consider the use of the TBQ-T methodology as meaningful. Limiting factors of this research include the issue of generalization level of the acquired knowledge, its trans-situationality, the context of cultural and transcultural conditions in terms of how the cultural schemas affect the assessment of the trading behavior forms, and using the self-report methodologies to study this particular phenomenon.
