Development and Utilization of a Personality Battery for Accountants
This paper reports development of an Accountant Personality Battery consisting of an Accountant Personality Inventory and three personality performance tests. Administering the test battery to 250 university students indicated that use of the battery, in conjunction with traditional predictors of grade-point average and academic achievement tests, may increase the predictability of an individual's performance in accounting courses. Personality te…
MMPI Patterns of Shoplifters within a College Population
The hypothesis of an interaction between personality and shoplifting behavior was supported. A shoplifting questionnaire and the MMPI were administered to 170 undergraduates. The respondents were grouped according to three behavioral categories—never shoplifted, shoplifted once, shoplifted many times. From each category 20 profiles were analysed. Analyses showed significant profile differences. Shoplifters had more standard scores two standard de…

250 university students were administered the “Einstellung” Water Jug Test. College grade point average, high school grade point average and American College Testing Program scores were collected for 184 of the subjects.

In an experiment assessing the effects on learning and retention of training material presented in association with various sensory modalities data indicated that sensory information interacted with retention intervals and measures. Auditory stimulation in general produced maximum retention and tactile stimulation produced the least. Results were discussed in terms of sensory cueing and established habit patterns
Personnel Practices in the South
Industrialization of the South is bringing thousands of former agricultural workers into the new and expanding factories and fitting them into the regimentation of industrial life. To what extent are southern factories using the personnel practices common in northern plants? This study reports a survey of 600 southern plants in regard to use of selected personnel practices. It also examines the influence of plant size, unionization, existence of …
Unionism and Personnel Practices in the Southeast
When workers organize to bargain collectively, there is an expectation that changes will occur in personnel administration; indeed, a major objective of organization commonly is to modify certain personnel practices. However, other factors may also influence personnel policies and practices. This article reports on a comparative survey of six hundred union and nonunion plants in the Southeast, which was designed to isolate the extent and characte…
