Abstract
A cross sectional study where 571 first and second year medicine students were asked to answer questions pertaining to age, gender, annual family income, and personalities. This study utilized Goldberg's IPIP Big-Five factor questionnaire which were given to randomly selected sample from a population. Data was analyzed through frequency, percentage, standard deviation and Chi-square test. The study conclude that having neuroticism, agreeableness, or conscientiousness as major personality trait was not a risk factor for having the intention to migrate; those with openness to experience as their major personality trait tended to have the intention to migrate.
