A sample of 337 men and women were grouped according to their perception of their parent entrepreneur's performance or the absence of such a role model. The groups were assessed on relationships between personality variables and entrepreneurial career preference variables. Personality and entrepreneurial career preference were complementary for individuals with a parent perceived to be a high performer. An inverse relationship between personality and entrepreneurial career preference was observed for both individuals with a parent entrepreneur perceived to be a low performer and those without a parent entrepreneur.
