  • Title: Personality characteristics of black adolescents.
    Author: Brown NW.
    Journal: Adolescence; 1977; 12(45):81-7. PubMed ID: 868631.
    Abstract:
    Four hundred and forty-six poor, Black, urban and rural adolescents ages 15-18 enrolled in a summer poverty-work program were administered Gough's Adjective Checklist (ACL) and Holland's Vocational Preference Inventory (VPI). Significant sex differences were found on 12 of the 24 ACL scales with Black females tending to score higher on all differing scales. The VPI scores were compared with Black College students' scores and significant differences were found on most of the 11 VPI scales.
