摘要
The purpose of this study was to examine the personality characteristics of students at the Islamic Azad University of Sari in 2011 academic year. The research was descriptive survey. The statistical population included all the students at the IAUS who were about 10,000. A total of 370 individuals were randomly selected. The results showed that the students' personality characteristics, except for the tolerance of ambiguity, were higher than the average and it can be concluded that the students at the IAUS have positive entrepreneurial features. The results revealed the fact that the clearness of thought among the female students was higher than that of the male and the dreaming aspect among the male students was higher than that of the females. Such factors of control centre, clearness of thought and pragmatism for graduate students were higher than those of the undergraduates.
