Abstract

The present study aims to find out the essential factors representing the aptitude for the various courses of the university by three kinds of test batteries consisting of psychological tests and the like.
By applying multiple discriminant analysis, the following four discriminant factors are extracted from each test battery. They are named as;(1) natural science vs. humanities, (2) architecture vs. chemistry and medicine, (3) practical business vs. research business, (4) social welfare vs. egocentrism. And finally validity of each test battery is evaluated by means of calculating distance for each group.
