Problem statement: Understanding the personality traits among women who are involved&#13; in drug addiction is a crucial issue prior to starting any intervention programs. It may provide an&#13; indication of their readiness to receive treatment and change this addictive behavior. This study was&#13; conducted to examine the predictive relationship between personality traits and readiness to change&#13; among women drug addicts in Malaysia. Approach: The study employed survey research involving&#13; the administration of two standardized psychological tests which were the Eysenck Personality&#13; Questionnaire Revised Short Version (EPQ-RS) and the Stages of Change Readiness and Treatment&#13; Eagerness Scale (SOCRATES). A total of 109 female drug addicts who were undergoing drug&#13; treatment in a female rehabilitation center in Malaysia participated in this study. Data were analyzed&#13; using Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis. Results: The current study shows that there&#13; were significant correlations between the traits of extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism with all&#13; the three stages of readiness to change. The study also demonstrated that high extraversion and&#13; neuroticism traits significantly predicted the recognition subscale. Conclusion: Being high on&#13; neuroticism and low in psychoticism traits significantly predicted the respondents to be ambivalence&#13; about changing their addictive behaviors. Likewise, being high on extraversion and neuroticism as well&#13; as low on psychoticism significantly predicted the taking steps subscale
