The article examines the variation in time descriptions and need achievement as measured by McClelland's method. The subjects in this study included 75 undergraduates who can rightly be described as intellectually superior young men from 18 to 22 years of age. They were given a series of Thematic Apperception pictures, and protocols were obtained in the manner proscribed by McClelland method. These protocols were scored for need achievement. Each subject was invited to rate his conception of "time" on each of the scales. It appeared on inspection that subjects varied considerably both in the means tendency on the scales and, more important, on their range of ratings. Accordingly, the raw ratings were not subjected to analysis, but were converted into normalized T scores for each subject; thus equating for each subject the mean and the standard deviation of his ratings on the 12 scales. Each rating scale was correlated with every other and with the need-achievement measure, yielding a 13-by-13 matrix of correlations. |
