Abstract
A total of 270 college students selected from 9 different academic fields were given the Kuder Preference Record, Form BM, the Allport-Vernon Supply of Values, 1931 edition, and the MMPI group form. Correlations were made of the various scales in these tests and the matrix data factor analyzed by the Thurstone Centroid Technique. Of the seven factors found, six of them were bipolar in structure. It was found that each of the academic sub-groups differed from each other significantly in mean factor scores on at least one factor in every instance, while broad areas of study such as aesthetics, social science, the humanistic sciences and natural science gave evidence of broader differences. These differences were not great enough however to allow for individual prediction though a fair degree of accuracy in group prediction appears likely.
