Development of a Rating Scale for Primary Depressive Illness
Tập 6 Số 4 - Trang 278-296 - 1967
This is an account of further work on a rating scale for depressive states,
including a detailed discussion on the general problems of comparing successive
samples from a ‘population’, the meaning of factor scores, and the other results
obtained. The intercorrelation matrix of the items of the scale has been
factor‐analysed by the method of principal components, which were then given a
Varimax rot...
Psychoticism and thinking
Tập 16 Số 3 - Trang 241-248 - 1977
In view of evidence linking psychosis with high creative ability, an attempt was
made to evaluate the relationship between thinking abilities and personality
traits. Tests of divergent thinking and convergent thinking were administered,
along with the Eysencks' Personality Questionnaire, to 100 university students.
The hypothesis that ‘psychoticism’ is related to divergent thinking was strongly
co...
A Social‐Psychological Examination of Privacy
Tập 12 Số 3 - Trang 248-261 - 1973
Privacy has been almost wholly neglected as an area of study. This paper
attempts to clarify some of the basic conceptual problems associated with
privacy which may have been partly responsible for inhibiting research. In
particular, it examines the relationship between privacy and social power and
norms. In conclusion, it suggests an approach to the measurement of privacy and
an attempt at a tent...
A Quick Measure of Achievement Motivation
Tập 12 Số 2 - Trang 137-143 - 1973
Misleading experimental findings may emerge because experimenters fail to
eliminate the effects of achievement motivation. It is suggested that few
experimenters control for these effects because no convenient measure is
available. The construction of a 10‐item scale of achievement motivation and a
seven‐item ‘carelessness’ scale is reported. The scale's validity is assessed
from correlations with...
Impaired Recall and the Memory Disturbance in Presenile Dementia
Tập 14 Số 1 - Trang 73-79 - 1975
Although subjects with presenile dementia have a very poor ability to retrieve
material previously presented for learning under conditions of free recall and
the usual type of recognition test, their performance was found to be not
significantly different from normal controls when the initial letters of the
correct words were provided at the time of recall. This finding raises the
possibility that...
Attention and Information Processing in Schizophrenia
Tập 15 Số 2 - Trang 199-209 - 1976
The performance of 20 acute schizophrenics and 10 depressives, matched for age,
verbal intelligence and pre‐morbid functioning, was assessed on a choice
reaction‐time card‐sorting task. Stimulus and response uncertainty were varied
independently, and there were two main conditions, distraction and no
distraction. The schizophrenics were slower than the depressives over all the
functions examined i...
