Journal of Counseling Psychology, 20, 6, 549-552, Nov 73

This study provided information about the personality characteristics of students without prior evidence of college underachievement who enroll in a study skills course. The subjects were low in self-acceptance and felt disappointed in and alienated from one or both parents. Sex differences were obtained and discussed. Results were compared to those of previous research with underachievers. (Author)
