The data was gathered from 370 students pursuing postgraduate programs and 50 entrepreneurs across India. A structured questionnaire was administered using the MBTI tool. The data was analyzed using Configuration Frequency Analysis (CFA) to analyze the multiway table contingency. CFA results classified the data into type and antitype. Further inference was drawn considering Extroversion, Intuition, Feeling, and Judging (ENFJ) as the dominant type and Extroversion Sensing, Feeling and Judging (ESFJ) as the dominant antitype. Intuition as a leading trait of EI tends to look at the overall picture rather than specific instances and is future-oriented. Sensing as a leading trait in antitype are predisposed to facts and figures and are present-oriented. The study’s originality lies in exploring students' EI with their PT compared to the entrepreneurs.\u003Cbr>Keywords: Entrepreneurial Intention, Extroversion Type, Feeling, Intuition, Judging Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, Sensing. |\n\nINTRODUCTION  \nThe development of entrepreneurial activity opens up prospects for many avenues for economic growth. A progressive economy is built on a strong entrepreneurship culture development and startup support foundation. This culture broadens the opportunity for universities, corporations, and government (Leydesdorff, 2000) in general to support creative ideas and help them get converted into a successful business (Papzan et al., 2013) . India is the third largest start-up hub globally as per the National Association of Software and Service Companies Report (NASSCOM, Report-2022), still, the rate of unemployment among youths in India is 45.4 percent, which is high as per the data released by the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy Report (CIME, Report 2023) . This problem can be considered an economic illness (Papzan et al., 2013) . Eventhough numerous earlier research has recognized the critical impact of Personality Type and Entrepreneurial Intention (Zhao et al., 2010)(Tan et al., 2021) . This area continues to grab the attention of the academic community (Tan et al., 2020) . This marvel can be explained by the fact that Entrepreneurial Intention is considered to be a unique quality among students who have a particular personality type and are different from other students (Baum & Locke, 2004)(Donaldson et al., 2021) .  \nThe country requires innovative, dynamic, smart, daring, efficient, determined, modern, and ‘Entrepreneurial’students. Understanding Entrepreneurial Intention is crucial for predicting and promoting entrepreneurial behavior, (Agarwal. A & Shrivastava, 2021) which, in turn, contributes to economic development to face the issue of instilling purpose in the postgraduates, higher educational institutions are becoming more entrepreneurial (Swain & Patoju, 2022) . Governments around the world are eager to support entrepreneurship as a catalyst for innovation that provides a range of solutions to the intricate societal issues that the w","cbCaik5IUO9ggaz9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik5IUO9ggaz9","pdf",1000179,12,"English","# Introduction\n# Literature Review\n## Entrepreneurial Intention","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To identify the effect of Personality Type on Entrepreneurial Intention using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI).\"},{\"question\":\"How was the data collected and analyzed?\",\"answer\":\"A structured MBTI-based questionnaire was administered to 370 postgraduate students and 50 entrepreneurs, and the data were analyzed using Configuration Frequency Analysis (CFA).\"},{\"question\":\"Which personality traits were found to be dominant for entrepreneurial intention?\",\"answer\":\"The dominant type is linked to ENFJ, while the dominant antitype is linked to ESFJ, with intuition highlighted as a leading trait for EI.\"}]","Personality Type and Entrepreneurial Intention: A Comparative Study on Post-Graduate Students and Entrepreneurs | PDF"]
