To precisely affirm the result of Report I, the author has analyzed the relationship between the MMPI and the Sociometric test used for examination of school groups. The selection of subjects was the same as that used for Report I.
The results were as follows:
1. In each class the mean profile of MMPI and the psychological structure for Sociometric testing revealed a close relationship between the two.
2. The relationship between the individual personality analyzed by MMPI and one's sociometric status was found to change dynamically according to the difference in characteristics of schools or classes.
3. It was observed that the mean profiles of MMPI of leaders, favorites, disliked and persons of high or low sociometric status revealed significant and different patterns according to their school characteristics.
