The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between personality and ability in wrestling. A wrestling-specific version of the Jackson Personality Inventory (JPI-W) was constructed and compared to the parent JPI. Wrestlers were categorized as qualifiers (N = 46) or nonqualifiers (N = 52) on the basis of an ability classification scheme which involved the previous year's performance at specified tournaments. These two groups were then examined for differences on eight JPI scales (anxiety, energy level, interpersonal affect, organization, risk taking, self esteem, social participation, and tolerance), eight corresponding JPI-W scales, wrestling age category (senior, junior, and juvenile), and wrestling experience. The results indicated that in comparison to nonqualifiers, qualifiers had significantly greater wrestling experience and higher self esteem as measured by the JPI-W.
该研究的目的是检验摔跤运动中个性与能力之间的关系。构建了杰克逊个性量表（JPI-W）的摔跤专用版本，并将其与原始的JPI进行比较。根据一种能力分类方案，将摔跤运动员分为合格者（N = 46）或不合格者（N = 52），该方案涉及前一年在特定比赛中的表现。然后，对这两组在八个JPI量表（焦虑、能量水平、人际影响、组织能力、冒险精神、自尊、社会参与度和宽容度）、八个相应的JPI-W量表、摔跤年龄类别（成年、青少年和少年）以及摔跤经验方面的差异进行了检验。结果表明，与不合格者相比，合格者的摔跤经验明显更丰富，并且根据JPI-W测量，其自尊水平更高。
