Description and Table of Contents
Description
The research addressed in these papers is multi-dimensional and problems are analyzed in terms of a range of factors using a variety of methods and procedures. The research is measurement based. There is a heavy reliance on a quantitative appraisal process and attention is paid to individual differences, with little reliance on controlled laboratory experimental methodology. Many of the papers refer to biographical material in developing personality theory. Most of the papers deal in some way or another with issues of competence and effectiveness. Although personality theory originated in 19th century psychopathology, all of the major assessment studies beginning with "Exploration in Personality" have been aimed at predicting successful performance in acitivities ranging from architecture to clinical psychology.
