  Studies related to human aspects in software engineering (SE) have been
performed from different perspectives. These perspectives include the study of
human factors in different phases of software life cycle, effect of team
performance in software development, how can a personality trait suit a
particular task, and about some other miscellaneous issues. This research work
aims to establish personality profiles of Pakistani software engineers using
the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) instrument. In this survey, we have
collected personality profiles of 110 software engineers. Moreover, their
preferences of software quality attributes have also been collected. Analysis
of the study shows that the most prominent personality type is a combination of
introversion, sensing, thinking and judging. Investigative results indicate
that most of the software engineers consider usability and functionality as the
most important software quality attributes.
