A comparison of fraternity and non-fraternity population with regard to certain personality characteristics

Abstract

Fraternity and non-fraternity men and women at Pennsylvania State College were given the Adams-Lepley Personal Audit. More differences between fraternity and non-fraternity women than between fraternity and non-fraternity men were found. This is explained by the fact that due to various factors, the men's fraternities give less weight to personality in their election of pledges.
