A Letter to Michael Billig
This article is a referee's report on a manuscript by Billig, subsequently published in this journal. It also represents a limited attempt at a `populated' report (cf. Billig); and, by implication, reflects on the literary practice of reviewing

Public Participation in Planning Within a Representative Local Democracy
Within the present system of local government in Britain there is great variation of public involvement. Major elites are often involved and consulted, while minor elites occasionally enjoy that position. For the public at large there is little collective involvement. The obvious challenge which these facts offer to conventional democratic notions is recognised in the recent requirement for public participation in planning introduced in 1971. Suc…
Sex differences, personality and study difficulty in university students
A study difficulty inventory and three sets of personality scales were administered to 145 students attending a university health centre. Motivational and psychoneurotic components of study difficulty were identified, which were differentially related in male and female students to basic personality characteristics and to psychiatric symptomatology. Syllabus-boundness emerged as more salient in the female students, and self-esteem in the males. P…
Objective constructs and cognitive structure
Some relations between objective content and concrete structure in cognitive systems are examined in repertory grids completed by 58 individuals. Predictions that systems with objective content would show less discrimination, differentiation and integration were unconfirmed, results tending in the opposite direction to that hypothesized. There was a similar outcome for six measures of cognitive style as dependent variables. It is suggested that o…
Personality correlates of study difficulty and academic performance in university students. I. The Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire and Dynamic Personality Inventory
The personality correlates of study difficulty and academic performance in university students have been measured in terms of psychiatric symptomatology and premorbid characteristics. The UCLSQ, MHQ and DPI were administered to two groups of male and female students presenting at an health centre: one ( n = 72) of patients seeking psychological help, the other ( n = 73) a control group. Significant differences between the two groups were found on…
Personality correlates of study difficulty and academic performance in university students. II. Conscience and self‐esteem
Scales measuring self‐esteem and conscience have been included in a further study of work‐related symptoms in students. Two groups were tested: a group of patients attending the UCL Student Health Centre for psychological reasons, and a group of normal controls. Conscience and self‐esteem were inversely related to one another. Both tests were reliable and differentiated between the groups. The patients tend to have low self‐esteem, high conscienc…

A Use of Repertory Grid Measures for Evaluating Map Formats
Effects of colour and base on construing urban planning maps are examined in relation to measures of grid structure and content. Four sets of seven redevelopment plans, differing in colour and/or base, were shown to random samples of 50 local women. Individuals construed the plans in a typical repgrid procedure. Differentiation measures, including percent variance of grid elements and principal components, and construct-type frequencies are compa…
Psychological significance in personal and supplied construct systems: A defining experiment
An implication was examined of three assumptions of Personal Construct Theory. Personal and supplied construct systems were compared for their capacity to account for 34 subjects' behaviour in an independent sorting task. It was found that either construct system tended to account for a significant amount of the variance in sorting behaviour, but that more was accounted for by personal Construct systems. Observations were made on the way in which…
