Abstract
Summary. The EPI (form A) was administered to 455 students taking the human development examination at the University of Exeter over a period of five years. Correlations between academic performance and E and N were computed both for year groups as a whole and for special groups. No stable pattern of correlations emerged, thus casting doubt on the contention that the mildly neurotic introvert succeeds best at university. There was no evidence, either, of curvilinearity of regression as suggested by some recent studies.
