Master's Theses
The present study will attempt to investigate C and RSR differences, sampling from a broad range of functions, using measures which may be less subject to verbal sets than the more traditional methods used by Couch and Keniston. The differences will be assessed in terms of the subjects' intelligence, general personality function, and test taking motivation.

Master's Theses
The phenomenon that certain individuals have unique and consistent patterns of responding to test items is called ''response set" or "response style". Such a set leads a person to respond to test items differently than he would if the same content were presented in a different manner or form. Thus, when response sets are present, the content of a statement become less important in determining the response. During the last decade, the study of various response styles has been one of the most active areas of research in psychology.
