Data were gathered using Zampetakis et al questionnaire (2007) which was indigenized by the scholar. T-Test, Chi-Square Test, and Pearson’s correlation coefficient were used to analyze the data. T-test showed that average entrepreneurial behavior and its elements are higher than mean.Chi-square test also showed that among personal-job characteristics only educational level and gender have a significant relationship with entrepreneurial behavior and its elements; so, organizational position, job experience, and age do not have a significant relationship with entrepreneurial behavior and its elements.
