Abstract
Impulse, Ego, and Superego scales of the Arrow-Dot test and the Psychopathic Deviance scale of the MMPI were correlated with a measure of resistance to temptation. Using 76 college males, positive correlations ( p < .05 and p < .001) were found between the Impulse scores and yielding to temptation and the Ego scores and resistance to temptation. The correlations of the Psychopathic Deviance scale with both the Arrow-Dot test and the behavioral measure were not significant. The study provides evidence for the predictive validity of the Arrow-Dot test.
