Abstract

CATTELL, RAYMOND B., and DREGER, RALPH MASON. Personality Structure as Revealed in Questionnaire Responses at the Preschool Level. CHILD DEVELOPMENT, 1974, 45, 49-54. The Preschool Personality Questionnaire (PSPQ) is 1 of a series of questionnaires designed to reveal personality structure at 5 age levels. Both parcel and item factoring have been utilized for the PSPQ, but this report covers only parcel approaches. 2 studies are reported here: first, a cross-check, ability-context experiment with 18 factors determined by a Scree test, 4 of them ability factors as hypothesized; and second, a study called the personality definition intensification experiment, which produced 22 factors of which 9 are distinctly new and the remainder are satisfactory matches for 7 of the original factors and somewhat less satisfactory for 6 of the originals.
