Adolescent Psychic Entropy: A Response to Unacknowledged Fears.
Faupel, Kathryn C.
Adolescence, v24 n94 p375-79 Sum 1989
Explored measuring psychic entropy (loss of motivation, unfocused attention, passivity, bad moods) in junior and senior high school students (N=22) and noted predictability of gender and grade using Psychic Entropy Measure for Adolescents. Found results did not support hypotheses that girls experience greater psychic entropy than boys or that grade level predicts psychic entropy. (Author/ABL)
