Major findings of this study, based on a population of 79 male college students, were as follows: (1) Corrected self-group discrepancy scores obtained by procedures described in study are sufficiently stable to be seriously considered as new measures of personality. (2) The more poorly adjusted an individual is, the more self-depreciative he appears to be. (3) Maladjustment (as judged within a restricted normal range by an individual's associates) is directly related to maladjustment as measured by the MMPI. (3) Individuals who show poor insight into their own level of adjustment are more likely to be maladjusted than those who show good insight.
