Description

The present study investigated the personality of people who manifested Type A behavior by using the Todai Egogram (TEG).<br> The TEG and the Jenkins Activity Survey Student Version (JAS-S) were administered to 179 undergraduate students (93 male, 86 female). Based on the scores obtained on JAS-S, 34 of these subjects were identified as Type A subjects, 46 were as Type B and 99 were as Type X subjects. The TEG scores of Type A subjects were compared with those of the Type B subjects. The Type A group showed significantly higher TEG scores in CP, A, and FC, and also significantly lower scores in AC than those obtained by Type B group.<br> The male Type A group showed almost the same result as above. The female Type A group, however, showed nonsignificantly higher TEG scores than Type X group. The female Type B group showed significantly lower TEG scores in CP and FC than those obtained by Type X group.<br> The result clarified that Type A person's perspnality was dominant and critical. It also indicated that there was some difference between male and female Type A personality.
