Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to examine the potential usefulness of Carroll and Chang's INDSCAL model for the investigation of “implicit personality theories.” The results were: (a) The INDSCAL stimulus dimensions were closely comparable to those obtained by factor-analytic procedure; (b) individual differences in the salience of the dimensions of personality perception were highly related to perceiver's sex, personality variables, cognitive complexity, and structural indices illustrated by Cronbach (1958); and (c) individual differences mentioned above had significant effects on the way of forming impressions based upon several personality traits.
