Originally published in 1953 this book provided the first
comprehensive account of methods of personality assessment by a
British author. It starts with a short survey of personality
theory, pointing out the difficulties in any method of testing or
assessment. Next it describes the weaknesses of the common
interview method. (Throughout the emphasis is on methods which are
usable in educational or vocational guidance and selection, not on
methods which are mainly of scientific interest.) Thereafter it
takes up each main type of technique - tests based on physique or
psychological measures, on expressive movement such as gestures and
handwriting, tests of behaviour (including War Office Selection
Board 'house party' methods), ratings and rating scales,
questionnaires, and so-called projective techniques. The evidence
for or against each test or method is surveyed and numerous
references provided for relevant literature. Illustrative excerpts
are given of many of the more promising tests, and some pictorial
illustrations. British work in this field at the time is covered
completely, and an attempt is made to provide a fair summary of the
main contributions of American and other psychologists of the day.
