N2 - Agile software development introduces a new paradigm into software engineering. The research presented in this paper questioned what individual characteristics, such as psychological needs, self-efficacy and perceived support from peers and managers, can tell us about the agile orientation of software practitioners. Data were gathered using questionnaires completed by 376 software developers employed in two divisions of an international Israeli company. In addition to the research description and findings, we also suggest specific implications derived from the research findings.
