Description
Human behavior is the expression of held values and beliefs. While it is correct to believe that behavior can adjust over time due to the shift in personality that?s being expressed, after a certain age, the personality development becomes considerably more adaptive, which leads to a reasonably consistent behavioral style that makes for a good tangible measure of someone?s character. The study aimed to find patterns between someone?s intents, inclinations, and tendencies to act in the future and their behavioral style based on the DiSC model of behavior. It encompassed 187 undergraduate and 72 postgraduate students of Pharmaceutical Sciences from both public and private universities in Jordan from over eight nationalities. The researcher used a survey made up of two sections; the first section focuses on the student\'s intents, beliefs, and general information. The second section?s questions are used to determine which of the four behavioral styles the student belongs to. The study showed that, in terms of numbers, the ?S? style of behavior makes up (66.8%) of total respondents, followed by ?C? style (17%), ?I? style (12%), and ?D? style (4.2%). The analysis showed both the undergraduate and postgraduate student?s perspectives and revealed several links between each style and academic potential, self-belief, thoughts about higher education, and future career plans.
