TY - JOUR AU - Shurling, James AB - The study identified the personality dimensions in the Jesness Inventory (JI) among black male delinquents. A random sample of 250 black male delinquents was administered the JI. A principal components factor analysis with a varimax rotation identified three factors: (1) Self-Estrangement, (2) Social Isolation, and (3) Immaturity. The proportions of total common-factor variance accounted for by the three factors were .511, .286, and .203 respectively. The results suggest that the factors might be a part of a larger alienation construct in black delinquents.
