The effects of three personality needs, nurturance, intraception, and abasement, of 35 males and 35 females on their ocular responses during a structured interview by a female interviewer were studied. The interviewee's responses to each of 48 questions were scored as (a) maintenance of eye contact throughout verbal responses, (6) break of eye contact before end of question, (c) lateral gaze aversion, and (d) vertical gaze aversion. Subjects high in need abasement looked away markedly more often to the left than persons low on the need. Also, subjects high in nurturance maintained eye contact more than low-nurturance subjects. Evidently, the face "leaks" information regarding the personality. Findings were related to work of Ekman, Tomkins, Bakan, and others.
