The aim of this study was twofold: (a)to measure the alternate form reliability of the Narcissistic Personality Inventory, and (b)to determine its construct validity by correlating it with the four scales of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ). The alternate form reliability was .72. The Extraversion and Psychoticism scales of the EPQ were positively and significantly correlated with the narcissism measure, and the Lie scale showed a significant negative correlation. The Neuroticism scale showed a nonsignificant relationship with narcissism. In addition, the combined Extraversion and Psychoticism scales produced[ a Multiple R with the narcissism measure that accounted for significantly more of the variance in narcissism than did either measure alone.
Two overt and observable reactions made by the rat to a strange open-field situation are defecation and urination. That these reactions are emotional in nature was amply demonstrated by evidence presented in the first article of this series (1). Another overt form of behavior in the field situation is the amount of running about which the rat manifests. The purpose of this article is to examine the relationship which exists between emotionality as measured by defecation and speed of ambulatory activity as measured by distance traversed per unit time.*
CONDITIONS OF THE EXPERIMENT* This investigation was planned to measure relationships other than that of emotionality and activity (2). The data obtained in periods I and IV are the principal ones analyzed in this paper.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
