AB - 4 experienced clinical psychologists independently ranked each of 4 equated samples of 10 patients on 1 of 4 traits (social adjustment, ego strength, intelligence, and dependency), using 1 of 4 data sources (MMPI, Rorschach, Wechsler, and a vocational history). A 4 X 4 Latin square design insured that the usual sources of judgmental confounding were absent from this study. The findings indicate quite clearly that the judgments of 1 clinician working from 1 data source bear no systematic relationship to those of another clinician working from another data source, even though both judges are ranking the same patients on the same trait. On the other hand, judgments of diverse traits from the same data source do tend to be related. (28 ref.)
