Relationships among 6 measures of temporal perspective and 9 personality variables were examined separately for male and female college students, and a factor analysis of scores was carried out. Scores (males: ns = 49 to 54; females: ns = 81 to 121) on temporal perspective instruments were significantly related to personality variables, although not in any consistent manner. The factor analysis showed different measures of temporal perspective to share little common meaning. The presumed unitary nature of the concept is challenged.
