Popis: | The MMPI was administered to 28 adolescent offspring from marriages in which both parents had taken the test during the ninth grade. Therefore, parent-offspring comparisons could be made on these measures of personality obtained at approximately the same age, one generation apart. Thus age bias is eliminated. Correlations and regressions for the ten clinical scales and K validity scale were determined. Heritability estimates were computed including corrections for parental assortative mating. The heritability estimates for the psychotic scales (6-Pa, 7-Pt, 8-Sc, and 9-Ma) tended to be higher than those for the remaining test scales. |
