Abstract

The behavior of a person deviates from the criterion of the group to which he belongs. How far does his behavior deviate from the criterion? It may permit us to meauure his personality. Subjects are presented five stories as problems, five questions on each story, and ten choice items which are identical for one problem.They are instructed to choose one of the choice items on each questions. Ten choice items are divided into two groups.<BR>1) One choice item group is more frequently chosen by the members of the group to which a subject belongs than the other on the question. Supposing that frequency is significantly greater than 50% of total members, the choice item of the other group a subject chooses indicates his response deviating from the criterion.2) The frequency of the choice of one choice item group changes from one question to others.If the choice item a subject chooses does not alter along with that change, then his choices indicate his responses deviating.<BR>There are, however, two objections to the above procedures.a) If the group to which a subject belongs is unhealthy, his response deviating from the criterion of the group may not deviate from the criterion of the present society.b) If a subject obeys the criterion compulsively, he may not be normal.<BR>With the former, two procedures are devised. 1) It is determined whether one choice item group chosen as the criterion of the group are identical with the criterion in other group or not.2) Also the changes of frequencies of one choice item group on questions are inspecited.In the experi ment in this paper several groups were compared and a model group was found among them.<BR>With the latter, supposing normal persons imply more normal ones than so frustrated as to show abnormal fixations, normal persons are chosen by use of other personality tests.In the experiment normal persons were chosen by use of the Group Rorschach Test in the model group.The correlation coefficient between the result of that test and that of the personality test in this paper was, statistically greater thar zero.
