The self-sentiment as factorially defined by Cattell was examined with particular emphasis on its relationship to other integrative factors defined by Cattell. Literature is reviewed and data from 98 adults presented. The self-sentiment trait of the 16 PF only correlates .28 with the dynamic self-sentiment trait of the Motivation Analysis Test. The dynamic superego factor of the latter test correlated only .36 with the factor of superego strength on the 16 PF.
