ABSTRACT

IN this and the following chapter, we consider 30 traits which had not been shown in Physique and Delinquency1 to vary in frequency among the body types and are in the present analysis seen to be associated with two or more of the 44 social factors. This relationship is not always of a kind to suggest that the social factors have necessarily contributed to the development of a trait; in some instances, the relationship more reasonably suggests a reaction of the human environment to the person already possessing the trait, and in some it would appear that trait and factor are involved in a reciprocal dynamic interplay.
