Abstract :This cross-sectional study was conducted to reveal the effects of socio-demographic characteristics and personality traits on the entrepreneurial tendencies of nursing students. This study was conducted with 410 nursing students. The STROBE checklist was used in the study. The questionnaire comprised an information request form for the socio-demographic and personal characteristics of participants, the Scale of University Students’ Entrepreneurship, and the Ten-Item Personality Inventory. Data were analyzed used for descriptive analysis and multiple regression analysis. The variables showing significance in the regression model were “career goals, type of the university, having an entrepreneur in the family, and the personality traits of agreeableness, emotional stability, and extraversion.” The R2 value of the model was 23.3%. The results of the research can contribute to academic efforts to develop and implement strategies for the promotion of the entrepreneurial tendencies of nursing students.
