This article presents the results of empirical studies of the interrelation of basic constructs: the need for achievement and achievement motivation. The research, described in this article, was focused at a comparative study of mentioned constructs at groups of managers and students. The study was conducted with the help of the following psycho-diagnostic methods: test of achievement motivation study by A. Mehrabian; test “Need for achievements” by Yu. M. Orlov; self-report inventory “Big Five” by P. Howard, P. Medina and J. Howard.
