Abstract:
A same-day administration of the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire to 325 male and 531 female clients allowed study of the psychometric properties of both instruments. Clients scoring low on Eysencks' Psychoticism, Extraversion, Neuroticism, and the Lie scale significantly differed from their high-scoring peers on many mean scores for the 20 Millon scales. Midrange scorers on the four Eysenck scales differed from extreme scorers on some Millon scales. A principal axis factor analysis accounted for over 80% of the total variance by four roots, tentat

Abstract:
The Eysenck Personality Inventory and three short five-factor personality inventories, the NEO Five Factor Inventory, the Berkeley Personality Profile, and the SONSO Personality Inventory, were administered in pairs to six samples of college subjects. The three samples using the Eysenck inventory each contained 300 subjects, whereas the remaining three samples contained 500 subjects each. Each sample was half women and half men. The inventories appear to have corresponding scales, often with correlations of around .70 among them. Also, measures associated with Neuroticism were weakly and negat

Abstract:
To determine whether personality in dreams exhibits a compensatory or a continuous relationship with waking personality, one dream from each of 100 undergraduate women was analysed with an extraversion scale derived from the Eysenck Personality Inventory. The dream extraversion scores were correlated with the subjects' corresponding extraversion score on Eysenck's inventory. The over-all coefficient (.14) was nonsignificant; however, when subjects were divided into high and low neuroticism groups, the low scorers' r was negative and significant (-.29) but that of the high scorers was not (.12)

Using figures presented by the Eysencks, very small correlations between extraversion and neuroticism scales of the Eysenck Personality Inventory were statistically significant for Forms A and B combined and for Form B using large groups.

It is concluded that these scales for the forms mentioned above are minimally correlated and so not completely orthogonal.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to test for significant link between personality trait and muscle dysmorphia in bodybuilders. A total of 212 bodybuilders filled the muscle dysmorphia inventory of which 44.3% (n = 94) were found to be muscle dysmorphic. Their personality traits assessed using eysenck personality profiler in the vienna testing system machine revealed 65% of muscle dysmorphic bodybuilders being predominantly oriented toward extroversion type of personality.

The aim of this study was to scrutinize the relationship between personality type as described by Grossarth‐Maticek and Eysenck, health‐related behaviours, and indicators of transitory ill health in a community sample. The sample consisted of all per sons aged 40 years (45 men and 35 women) in a Swedish municipality who agreed to take part in a health examination at the primary health care centre of the municipality. The Short Interpersonal Reactions Inventory (Grossarth‐Maticek and Eysenck, 1990) was used to measure personality type. Self‐report data were obtained regarding seven health‐relat

A sample of 116 subjects were classified as adherers or drop-outs on the basis of exercising at an on-campus exercise facility over 1 yr. Scores on the Eysenck Personality Inventory showed that adherers did not differ from drop-outs in scores on extraversion; however, drop-outs recorded significantly higher neuroticism scores than adherers.

Papua New Guinea has been defined as a collectivist (as opposed to individualist) culture (Triandis et al., 1986a). The aim of this study was to examine the effects of allocentricity on a standardised personality test, the Eysenck Personality Inventory, using a sample of Papua New Guinean university students. The responses of 256 subjects were factor analysed. The 22 factors extracted in the first-order analysis were reduced to eight factors in a higher-order analysis. These eight factors were only psychologically meaningful if interpreted within the context of a collectivist society. The impl

The relationship of academic achievement or grades with Eysenck Personality Inventory scores on Neuroticism and Introversion was examined. Contrary to theoretical expectations and previous studies, no significant differences among means were observed for 118 first-year South African university students (78 women and 40 men) whose mean ages were 29 yr.

Abstract:
The sexual coercion literature has suggested numerous factors related to aggressive sexual behavior. The present investigation explores a number of these factors in a community sample. Data collected from 189 volunteers from the community included measures of sexual arousal, social perception, personality variables, attitudes toward women, and self-reported likelihood to rape. Multiple-regression analyses were used to determine the relative association of these factors to coercive sexual behavior. The present findings suggested that social perception, Extraversion and Neuroticism from the Eyse

Abstract:
In a recent study by Fourie a post hoc observation was made that summer-born subjects obtained a higher mean extraversion score on the Eysenck Personality Inventory than winter-born subjects, with spring- and autumn-born subjects scoring neatly between the two extremes. The present study was designed to replicate this finding and to investigate the relationship between extraversion and mean day temperature around the time of birth. The Eysenck Personality Questionnaire was applied to 350 women, all born in the same 12-mo. period. Analysis of variance performed on the extraversion scores verifi
