S ummary . 117 students taking ONC courses were tested using the Eysenck Personality Inventory and the Brown‐Holtzman Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes. The relationships between the sub‐scores on these scales and examination performance at the end of the first or second year of study were investigated. Stable introverts were found to have the best study attitudes, though their examination results were not significantly better than those of the extraverts. All the sub‐scales of the SSHA were significantly related to academic performance, but they showed contrasting patterns of relationships with the personality dimensions
