Abstract
A comparative investigation was made of the validity of a mathematical model for inventory re sponse to adjective and sentence type items. Data were gathered about responses to mixed inventories (i. e., containing positively and negatively stated items) under conditions that promoted candidness. Meaning dimensions, subject samples, and testing conditions were equivalent over item types. Individ ual model validities for both item types were not significantly different. Their median level equaled that of candid responses to a mixed item set in the Cliff (1977) study.Keywords
