Abstract

Analysis of whether differing sex-object choices by 46 female heterosexuals and 46 female homosexuals are associated with significant differences in scores on the Eysenck Personality Inventory indicated heterosexual women were higher on the Neuroticism scale. No differences were found on the Lie or Introversion/Extraversion scales. Neither group scored above or below what is considered to be normal T-ranges of 30 to 70 on any scale.
