127 senior administrators of correctional institutions completed a self-report Type A scale as well as measures of personality, work values, social participation, and coping behaviors. Greater Type As were more rigid, had stronger needs for social approval, and were more social. Their work values were more in line with the Protestant work ethic. Greater Type As were also more active in community organizations, but not in friendships, and preferred active coping behaviors. Implications for Type A behavior change programs are offered
