With the emerging opportunities for pharmacists to gain provider status, the need for understanding interest to become a pharmacist provider has never been greater.To determine which entrepreneurial traits (locus of control, innovativeness, autonomy, risk-taking propensity, proactiveness, achievement motivation, people liking, problem-solving, and leadership) are associated with interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.A cross-sectional survey was conducted among second- and third-year student pharmacists. Exploratory factor analysis (principal components with varimax rotation) was used to determine any underlying dimensions. Significant differences in interest in becoming a pharmacist provider by demographic and other characteristics were determined using tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA; ≤ .05). Multiple linear regression was used to determine the factors associated with interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.A total of 137 completed questionnaires were received. Gender ( = .003) and preference of workplace ( < .001) were significantly associated with interest in becoming a pharmacist provider. All factor loadings were more than 0.50 and Cronbach alpha values were more than .68. In the multiple linear regression analysis model, proactiveness ( = .036) and achievement motivation ( = .018) were positive predictors of interest in becoming a pharmacist provider. Females ( = .006) and individuals who preferred to work in a hospital ( < .001) or in specialty care ( = .007) had a significantly greater interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.Proactiveness and achievement motivation can be predictors of interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.
