Ninety-nine participants from a large midwestem University completed this study. Participants were volunteers from a psychology subject pool. Participants completed a demographic information sheet, the Quest scale, and the NEO-FFI. Multiple regression analyses were performed predicting Quest scores from a linear combination of the NEO-FFI scales. A factor analysis of the Quest scale was also performed. Results supported a three factor solution for the Quest scale. The results also suggest some relationship between Quest and the five NEO-FFI personality variables. Two of the three factors shared a significant relationship with personality variables accounting for 20% and 17% of the variance. The results seem to leave the question of the validity of the Quest unsettled.viii, 108 leaves ;Education, Educational Psychology.Psychology, Personality.Religiousness Testing.Psychology, Psychometrics.Psychology, Religious.NEO Five-Factor Inventory.Thesis
