   DIRECTIONS: The PSYCHAP INVENTORY is a questionnaire which 
   gives you the chance to compare your personality to others.
   Each item consists of two statements, "A" & "B". Read each of
   the two statements and pick the one which  comes closest to the
   way you generally think, feel, or behave.
   You'll answer the questions on the answer sheets provided (not on the
   questionnaire itself) by circling the letter "A" or "B" next to the item
   number there.
   Most choices will be easy to decide, but with questions which
   are a "close call" -- or with questions where neither seem to apply --
   try and make the choice that comes closest. Also keep in mind,
   questions are to be answered "IN GENERAL" -- not just how
   you may be feeling today.
