  • Title: Use of the CPI structural scales in Taiwan college graduates.
    Author: Ying YW.
    Journal: Int J Soc Psychiatry; 1990; 36(1):49-57. PubMed ID: 2354886.
    Abstract:
    The study examines the usefulness of the CPI vector scales in a cross-cultural setting. These scales assessing degree of internality (v.1), norm-abiding tendency (v.2) and self-actualization (v.3) were administered to a group of 215 recently college graduated Taiwan men and women. The Taiwan sample was found to be more norm-abiding and less actualized than American college students. This difference is discussed in the context of varying cultural values. Based on the raw scale scores, personality type and actualization level of the students were determined. Appropriateness of U.S. derived cutoff scores for determining type and actualization for this group is discussed.
