Converting California Psychological Inventory Protocols from 1957 to 1987 Norms and Variables

Abstract

This article presents a simple methodology for manually converting 1957 California Psychological Inventory protocols to the 1987 version. This process permits utilization of current norms for prior administrations of the inventory and also allows computation of Gough's three new second-order (“structural”) personality variables and of several new scales which were not formally included in the 1957 version.
