Abstract
Forced choice alternatives constructed on the basis of personality theory were evaluated by judges and analyzed according to intercorrelation in high school students. They are used to construct 3 sub tests that assess self concepts. Intrafamily tension is rated by counselors and physique is classified by height and weight. "Only intrafamily tension had a significant effect . . . on the subtest measuring the Inner-Controlled Self and the Somatic-Primitive Self. Physique had a significant effect . . . on the subtest measuring the Outer-Controlling Self and the Submissive-Dependent Self, although a significant interaction effect . . . was also present. Only intrafamily tension had a significant effect . . . on the subtest measuring the Integrative-Actualizing Self and the Detached-Independent Self."
