| Abstract: | In this paper we report our recomputations of the data of Heymans' ‘heredity-inquiry’, which he carried out at the beginning of this century to test his dimensions of temperament (activity, emotionality, secondary functioning). In our study of 2309 subjects, we globally replicated the three factors. In the activity as well as in the emotionality factor two subclusters could be distinguished. The secondary-functioning factor turned out to resemble the present-day impulsivity-reflection dimension. In the final section the Heymans factors are compared with Eysenck's extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism dimensions. |
