Repressed Aggression Tests, 1930https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/0PMZC6Murray, Henry A. Harvard Dataverse2007-11-282018-10-15T12:36:12ZThese data are part of Explorations in Personality, a two and a half year study that was conducted in the 1930s by Murray and a research team at the Harvard Psychological Clinic. The general purpose of the study was to construct a theory of personality that integrated existing theories and to devise techniques to identify important personality attributes. The ultimate goal was to determine the relationship between early experiences and personality. <br /><br /> The first group consists of 20 students in the Harvard classes of 1932, 1933, and 1934. The second group is composed of 13 participants. It cannot be inferred from the information available whether or not the second group of participants were also Harvard College students. Data consist of a series of closed-ended measures (such as forced choice scales), intelligence and aptitude tests, projective tests, and an interview about childhood memories.<br /><br /> The Murray Research Archive holds the original record paper data from two groups of men, and also has print-outs of statistical analyses of the different measures and rank orders for each participant on the various personality variables.Social Sciences2007-11-28193019401930field studyUnited States<div style="padding-left: 30px;"> <ul style="list-style-type: decimal;" ><li> The Murray Archive (the Distributor) has granted me a revocable license to use this dataset solely for the purposes of conducting research, and the Distributor may terminate this license at any time and for any reason. </li> <li> I will use the dataset solely for statistical analysis and reporting of aggregated information, and not for investigation of specific individuals or organizations, except when identification is authorized in writing by the Distributor. </li> <li>I will produce no links among the Distributor’s datasets or among the Distributor’s data and other datasets that could identify individuals or organizations. </li> <li>I represent that neither I, nor anyone I know, has any prior knowledge of the possible identities of any study participants in any dataset that I am being licensed to use. </li> <li> I will not knowingly divulge any information that could be used to identify individual participants in the study, nor will I attempt to identify or contact any study participant, and I agree to use any precautions necessary to prevent such identification. </li> <li> I will make no use of the identity of any person or establishment discovered inadvertently.
