Abstract This study investigates the impact of several personal characteristics of accounting professionals (gender, tenure, achievement motivation, influence orientation, and A/B personality) on selected determinants of personnel turnover (work-related stress, job satisfaction, and turnover intentions). The results indicate that an accounting professional's personal characteristics affect the individual's turnover intentions directly and/or through two intervening variables, work-related stress and job satisfaction. Tenure and gender also were found to directly affect turnover intentions. An individual's influence-orientation was observed to exert a direct impact upon the auditor's turnover intentions as well as an indirect effect through job satisfaction. Type A personality profile was found to have no effect on work-related stress; instead. Type A personality traits have a direct impact upon the auditor's turnover intentions as well as an indirect effect through job satisfaction.
