Abstract
The Cattell 16 P.F. personality questionnaire was administered to a sample of Ghanaian students together with the E.P.I. (Eysenck Personality Inventory—Eysenck, 1964). The validity of both tests within this population was demonstrated by examination of their inter‐correlations and factor loadings which were similar to those found in other investigations. The E.P.I. was also item‐analyzed and the Neuroticism (N) scale was found to be efficient and thus suitable for comparative purposes whereas the Extraversion scale, though valid within the population, was vitiated by the low discrimination of certain items. The hypothesized aetiology of the 16 P.F. factors was examined with regard to the Ghanaian culture pattern and the scores obtained from this sample and other comparable groups.
