Twenty-five inmates of the Petersburg Federal Reformatory Drug Abuse Program, Petersburg, Virginia were selected as Ss in this study. Intercorrelations among AQ-IQ discrepancies, MMPI scales and behavioral adjustment ratings were computed. The results suggested that the AQ-IQ discrepancy is of questionable efficacy as an index of personality disorganization.
