Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

Contrary to Jackson's 1974 theoretical conceptualization of the factors underlying the Personality Research Form-E, later in 1985 Fowler found a nurturance factor but not an achievement factor. A major problem may be the predominantly female sample in Fowler's study. This study replicated Fowler's using a sample with equal proportions of men and women. Among other things, analyses yielded an achievement factor and not a nurturance factor. Implications of the results were discussed.
