Abstract

The present study was undertaken to investigate the significance of parent's educational level upon the personality makeup of subjects. CPI (1987) and MMPI (1944) were administered upon the sample (N=695). The factorial design of the study was 2x4 with 2 categories of Low-high scoring subjects on CPI subscales and the neurotic triad of MMPI and 4 parental educational categories: B.A./B.Sc. and above; middle­ intermediate, primary, and uneducated. The results showed a significant difference between the low and high scoring subjects on majority of subscales of CPI and the neurotic triad of MMPI for the four parents' educational categories.
