A total of 164 university students who were studying biology in the faculty of science participated in this study. The results showed that i) for the whole sample, the numbers of curious and socialstudents are fairly higher than the achiever and the conscientious students however, there are differences for each level, ii) more boys than girls appeared as achiever, on the other hand, moregirls than boys appeared as conscientious.
