Orlofsky, Jacob L.; And Others – Journal of Personality Assessment, 1977
A median split and a difference/median split method were used to classify college students into masculine, feminine, androgynous and undifferentiated sex role orientations using the Bem Sex Role Inventory. The difference/ median split procedure was more successful in discriminating between sex role groups and in predicting sex role ideology. (EVH)

The hypothesis that the Zax Information Prifile (ZIP) would differentiate between help-seeking college students and non-help-seeking students was supported by the data. The potential use of the ZIP as a predictor of college adjustment and as a useful entrance screening device is discussed. (Author/EVH)

Coopersmith, Stanley; And Others – Journal of Personality Assessment, 1976
Results of the study show that several features of figure drawing identify the children who differ in self esteem. These differentiating features are associated with behavioral expressions of esteem rather than with self-appraisals of personal worth. (Author/DEP)

Vestewig, Richard E.; Paradise, Carol A. – Journal of Personality Assessment, 1977
Achievement motivation was successfully measured among male and female college students by having the students rate eight Thematic Apperception Test cards for similarity and scaling the results in two dimensions: number of persons and degree of strong affect. The Rorschach Inkblot Test was not effective in determining need for achievement. (CTM)

Rowe, David C.; Plomin, Robert – Journal of Personality Assessment, 1977
The structure of temperament proposed by the New York Longitudinal Study (NYLS) was compared to Buss and Plomin's EASI temperament theory. A similar sociability factor emerged from both systems, but other temperaments were unique. The two systems were merged to form the Colorado Childhood Temperament Inventory. (Author/MV)
