筆者曾於民國六十年至六十二年間，利用三種心理測驗，就中國及蘇格蘭青年之社會態度，進行比較研究。現為求驗證其中一部分結果之確實性，特再就原有研究之被試中，選取蘇格蘭中學生四十二名，我國國中學生四十名，使之在前次測驗兩年之後，再度接受「主題統覺測驗」(TAT)；另外並選取兩國大學生各五十名接受測驗。將所得資料進行分析後，發現中國青年在和蘇格蘭青年相比較時，有下列特色：(1)中國青年和其父母有較親切，和諧的關係，並較能接受父母之指導；(2)中國青年在一般行為上有較高之自我約束，亦具有較高之被動性，至於前次所發現「我國青年有較高之整體知覺傾向」一節，則未能在本次研究之中獲得證實。約有半數被試在第二次測驗時之反應，在內容方面和兩年前之反應甚為相近。

Forty-two Scottish and forty Chinese junior high school pupils drawn from the subjects of a previous study are tested again two years later. The instrument used is a selected set of TAT cards (6BM, 14, 8BM, & 12BG). In addition, TAT protocols for 6BM and 12BG from 50 university students are collected from both Glasgow, Scotland, and Taipei for comparison. Theme analysis of the materials thus obtained confirms some of the findings of the previous investigatson: (a) In comparing with with youths is Scotland, Chinese adolescents have a stronger posttive feeling toward and more dependent upon their parents who in turn, exercise greater influence upon their children than Scottish parents; (b) Chineseadolescents are more passive and self-restraint than Scottish subjects. The result, however, does not provide a consistent support to the hypothesis that Chinese people tend to have a global and general perception toward the outside world. Nearly half of those subjects retested produce similar themes for the same card in two sessions which are two years apart.
