A NEW SCALE FOR PERSONALITY MEASUREMENTS IN CHILDREN

Abstract
Summary. A brief description is given in this paper of the Junior E.P.I.: a questionnaire for use with children from the ages of 7 to 16. The questionnaire was developed by extensive factor analyses carried out separately for the various age groups considered, and detailed norms are available for boys and girls separately at each age. The questionnaire contains scales for the measurement of neuroticism or emotionality, extraversion/introversion, and a lie scale. The intercorrelations of these scales are given and there is a discussion of the relations observed between the temperamental traits measured on the one hand, and sex and age on the other.
