Abstract

Normative data are presented for Southern black children on two objective personality inventories for children: the Missouri Children's Picture Series (MCPS), a child picture-sorting task, and the Missouri Children's Behavior Checklist (MBCL), a parent rating scale. The MCPS was administered to 615 black children attending public schools in a low socioeconomic area of the southeast United States. Parents returned the MBCL on 437 of the children. Means and standard deviations on eight MCPS personality scales and six MCBL behavior rating scales are presented for black males and females at ages 5 through 16, and effects of age, sex, and various scale intercorrelations are discussed. Results suggest systematic age and sex differences on the various scales for black children that are quite atypical when compared with the MCPS in other samples. Various empirical questions regarding the validity of these instruments when used with Southern black children are raised.

摘要

文中给出了美国南部黑人儿童在两项儿童客观人格量表上的常模数据

密苏里儿童图片系列测试（MCPS），这是一项儿童图片分类任务；以及密苏里儿童行为清单（MBCL），这是一份家长评定量表。对就读于美国东南部一个社会经济地位较低地区公立学校的615名黑人儿童进行了MCPS测试。437名儿童的家长交回了MBCL量表。文中呈现了5至16岁黑人男性和女性在MCPS的八个个性量表以及MBCL的六个行为评定量表上的均值和标准差，并讨论了年龄、性别以及各量表之间的相互关系的影响。结果表明，黑人儿童在各量表上存在系统性的年龄和性别差异，与其他样本中的MCPS相比，这些差异非常不典型。文中还提出了关于这些量表在用于美国南部黑人儿童时的效度的各种实证问题。
