Journal Title: International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
In hard times, when educated persons cannot get job, self-employment is referred as a solution. But entrepreneurship is not the function that might be outcome of simple efforts. It requires a regular and permanent attitude as a part of personality. Few studies have examined how personality differences among individual's students can influence their entrepreneurial intention especially among students enrolled in Business Administration programs This paper aims to examine the relationship between personality traits using big five factor model and entrepreneurial intention. A total sample of 152 students from business schools in Syria is selected. The research finding indicates that there is a significant positive impact of openness to experience and extraversion on entrepreneurial intention.
