79 students enrolled in an Honors College curriculum were administered the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire to determine their leadership potential scores. Significant differences were found between individuals who actually held leadership positions and those who did not. Other studies using larger samples need to be undertaken to replicate this study.

Women biologists and chemists listed in Who's Who in America and Who's Who of American Women ( N:146) were studied with the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16 PF). As a group, women scientists were found to be more serious, radical, confident, dominant, intelligent, and adventurous than women in the general population, and less sociable, group-dependent, and sensitive. Personality profiles on the 16 PF of men and women scientists showed strong similarity ( p < .01).

Personality Factor Questionnaire

Eight hundred and sixty-three women psychologists, scientists, artists and writers, and politicians were compared on the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire through a multiple discriminant analysis. The four groups were set apart by personality characteristics adaptive to their professional role expectations. Politicians were more sociable, conscientious, self-controlled, and group-dependent; artists and writers were more affected by their feelings, spontaneous and natural, and inclined to follow their own urges; scientists were the more reserved, serious, and tough-minded; and psychologists were more flexible, liberal, and accepting. When contrasted with women in the general population, the four groups of career women were all found to be brighter, more assertive, more adventurous, and less conservative.

Questionnaire Form

The present study was designed to examine the relationships between selected birth-order-rank categories and personality behavior as measured by the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire, Form A (16 PF). Data from 87 female Ss indicated significant differences among several of the birth-order groups on two of the second-order factors. Significant differences appeared between First Born Only and Second Born and Youngest as well as between First Born Only and Third Born Ss on Factor V, and between First Born Only and Second Born with Younger Siblings on Factor VI.

Assessment Of Intelligence

A correlation of .37 between scores on Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire source trait B and scores on the Quick Word Test of 104 male and 141 female American college students was calculated. It was concluded that Factor B's validity as an individual assessment of intelligence is not supported for this sample of college students.

Women authors who were listed in Who's Who in America, and women artists in Who's Who in American Women responded to the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire. Both groups were found to be more aloof, intelligent, emotional, aggressive, adventurous, imaginative, radical, and self-sufficient, and less group-dependent and controlled than women in the general population. Although the women artists did not score beyond the average on sensitivity and self-control, the authors were more sensitive and less controlled than women in general.

Significant Point

This report describes four studies of measures of the alcoholic personality by the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire and the House-Tree-Person. In a sample of 49 male alcoholics support was found for the 16 PF alcoholic personality reported in earlier studies on 4 to 7 scales. Differences in incidence of 20 chromatic characteristics of drawings and in sex of the HTP person drawings between normals and alcoholics were also discovered. Previous research on collegiates reported some low but significant point biserial correlations and discriminant functions between 16 PF traits and trait combinations, and 20 chromatic drawing characteristics. In three instances, alcoholic and college men's drawing characteristics correlated significantly ( p < .05) with the same 16 PF scale. In three other cases, identical findings occurred in correlations of alcoholic men and college women's drawings and traits. Comparison of the data from alcoholics and college students led to the conclusion that in general relationships between drawing characteristics and personality traits may well depend on the type of sample used. Suggestions for further research were made.

Preference Ratings

College students (49 males and 40 females) completed the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire and performed 5-point preference ratings on 25 slides of paintings. Factor analysis of preference ratings gave seven dimensions of preference that underlay judgments. Eight significant relationships were found between source traits, measured by the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire, and dimensions of painting preferences. Support was obtained for the notion that preference for paintings is congruent with or expresses the personality traits of the rater. Further students reported greater preference for representational paintings than for abstract paintings.

Selection Of

Scores on the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16 PF) were different for childcare employees designated by their supervisors most and least desirable. This led to a rationale, specific to this setting, which potentially could augment procedures for selection of employees. The methods and cautionary concerns are proposed to other agencies.

Personality Factor Questionnaire

One hundred seventy-five undergraduate students took Cattell's Sixteen Personality Factor questionnaire (16 P.F.) and Thurston's Primary Mental Abilities test (PMA). Subjects were divided into the following three groups on the basis of their PMA subtest scores -A “high verbal-low spatial” group (HiV - LoS), an “intermediate” group, and a “high spatial-low verbal” group (HiS - LoV).On the basis of previous work with HiV - LoS and HiS - LoV subjects, several personality differences between the two groups were hypothesized. Analyses of variance were conducted with personality factor scores as dependent variables and sex and ability patterns as independent variables. Results indicated that at least for male subjects, the HIS - LoV and HiV - LoS groups differed significantly on certain personality variables involving response to social stimuli.
