Marital Roles

By means of stepwise multiple regression, 12 factors of the Marriage Role Questionnaire were regressed on factors of the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire and 25 scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory. The regressions were run with the predictor instruments separately and combined. Individually, the MMPI proved superior to the 16 PF in predicting to the factors of the Marriage Role Questionnaire. However, in six cases out of the 12 predictability improved substantially when both instruments were utilized together. Some of the substantive results of this investigation match findings from previous research.

Personality Questionnaires

The argument is presented that many commercial personality questionnaires occupy a similar common vector space. A data-set was obtained of scores for 204 persons on the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire, the California Personality Inventory, the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule, the Omnibus Personality Inventory, and the Adjective Check List. Quasifactor scores were generated from each inventory, based on the results of earlier work, as estimates of five broad variables hypothesized to define the common vector space across instruments. Factor analysis of the correlations among the resultant 23 variables was largely confirmatory of the hypothesized common vector space.

Personality Disorder Scales

Previous research has shown correlations between normal personality variables of the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF) and Axis II personality disorder scales using the Morey, Waugh, and Blashfield Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) and Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory. This study ( N = 37) compared variables from the adolescent version of the 16PF, the High School Personality Questionnaire, Revised, including the new Clinical Supplement and the MMPI scales of Morey, et al. and yielded results similar to those from earlier studies with other inventories. Extraversion scores correlated positively with those on Narcissistic and Histrionic scales, negatively with scores on Schizoid, Avoidant, and Schizotypal scales; scores on Independence had a similar pattern.

The authors review the published, peer-reviewed studies relevant to two questions: What psychological constructs underlie police officer suitability and fitness? and What assessment instruments provide empirically validated measures of these constructs? In addressing the second question, the authors focus on examples of research related to the most commonly used instruments in these suitability and fitness evaluations (i.e., current versions of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, California Psychological Inventory, Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire, and Personality Assessment Inventory). The discussion is limited to a review of studies published in peer-reviewed journals and pertaining only to versions of the test currently supported by the test’s publisher.

Using 148 clients from a private practice sample, concurrent scores on the Morey, Waugh, and Blashfield Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Scales and the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire were factor analyzed in an attempt to map the Axis II disorders within a circumplex of interpersonal behavior. Individual predictions about the 16 PF primaries were made and then equations were developed to predict the Morey, Waugh, Blashfield MMPI scales from the 16 PF scores. Using a separate sample of 43 clients and 21 students, a cross-validation of concepts was performed by using the 16 PF to generate the MMPI scores and correlating the predicted scores with concurrent Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory scores. Concordance of the personality disorder characterizations across the instruments was high. Many of the predicted personality disorder characteristics were supported by the research, and 10 of 11 correlations with the Millon were significant. This research suggests the 16 PF is useful for generating hypotheses about personality disorders and that the Axis II conceptualizations fit as expected within normal personality space.

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.

Personality Factor Questionnaire

Two hundred and five disadvantaged women completed standardized psychometric inventories (Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire, Motivation Analysis Test, Tennessee Self-Concept Scale, Internal-External Control Scale, Work Attitude Scale) and a structured interview (attitude-value, activity. Jife concerns items). Factor analysis was used to organize these data; correlational analyses indicated that the inventory and interview dimensions tapped essentially independent aspects within the total motivation domain. Compared with inventory norms, these women exhibited torpidity and submissiveness, depressed motivation, poor self-esteem, but positive work attitudes. Differences between dichotomous subgroups defined by six major demographic variables were consistent with previous literature; the most salient pattern of subgroup differences showed that black, less intelligent, and less educated women were less positive toward work and more externally oriented. In sum, these women appeared resigned and lethargic; no causal inference was drawn, but it was cautioned that choice of counseling procedures should be based on a differentiation of diminished from initial lack of motivation.

Absenteeism: A study of truck drivers. The aim of the study was to explore reasons for absenteeism as experienced by code 11 truck drivers. Two groups were identified: one group high, and the other group low on an absenteeism continuum. Significant differences between the groups ocurred with respect to four of the sixteen personality factors of the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire. However, no significant difference in their personal values and intellectual ability could be found. Opsomming Die doel van die studie was die identifisering van aanduiders van werkafwesigheid by kode 11 vragmotorbestuurders. Die bevinding van hierdie studie is dat daar beduidende verskille tussen werkafwesige en werkaanwesige vragmotorbestuurders ten opsigte van vier van die sestien persoonlikheidsfaktore van die Sestien Persoonlik- heidsfaktorvraelys bestaan. Daar blyk egter geen beduidende verskille betreffende hulle persoonlike waardes en intellektuele vermoens te wees nie.
