Total your score. Compare it with the following scores:

(Remember these scores have little meaning in themselves. They merely represent probable emotional tendancies. Only complete tests in the hands of a competent analyst have real meaning. This test, which appears in a College Psychology Manual is for the use of students in self-inventory and analysis as part of a beginning psychology course.)
