This study was designed to examine the convergence between Cattellian and Zuckerman’s models of personality on Indian subjects. To realize the main objective, 202 students with the age ranging from 19 to 28 years were selected from various PG departments of K.U.K.(Haryana). The subjects were tested with Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16 PF) and Zuckerman-Kuhlman Personality Questionnaire (ZKPQ) after proper rapport. Obtained data were analysed by using Descriptive Statistics, Pearson’s Correlation, and Principal Component Factor Analysis. Obtained correlations depict some overlap between some factors of personality indexed by 16 PF and ZKPQ. Factor Analysis yielded eight factors named as Extroversion/Sociability; Impulsive-Sensation Seeking; Adjustment; Pathemia; Super Ego Strength; Affectothymia; Subduedness v/s Independence; and Activity.

Components Method

Recent legislation has extended rehabilitation services from the groups traditionally served to the socially and economically disadvantaged. Since many of these clients cannot be classified in the traditional modes, this study developed a system of classification according to personality traits intended to be useful to counselors in dealing with all types of clients.A sample of 135 clients was administered Form E of the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire. Factor analysis (principle components method) and discriminant analysis differentiated three personality groups: (1) normal adjusted, (2) assertive-aggressive, and (3) passive-dependent. Appropriate counseling techniques for each group are suggested.

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.

Thrill Seeking

Correlations between the Form C of the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16 PF) and Form IV of Zuckerman's Sensation-seeking Scale are presented for 200 undergraduate college students. Previous findings tended to be supported and the analysis was expanded to include four second-stratum 16 PF traits and six 16 PF criterion scores. General sensation-seeking was negatively related to psychoticism and neuroticism and positively related to extraversion, contertia, and independence. The psychoticism and neuroticism factors are also negatively related to the factors of sensation-seeking, thrill seeking, and disinhibition, as well as other significant relationships between these factor scales.

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.
