Abstract
205 children, ages 10-13, were used to study the ability of personality trait variables, as measured by the Children's. Personality Questionnaire in discriminating among 3 intellectual groups of preadolescent children, to determine the relative importance of these variables in the discrimination and to determine the ability of the personality variables in classifying subjects into intellectual groups. In addition, some discuccion of the multivariate approach used (discriminant-function analysis) was provided. It was concluded that children of different intellectual levels do in fact differ in their personalities. Furthermore, the results indicated that those children with high intellectual ability tend to be more emotionally well adjusted.
