APPROVED FOR OBLIGATION OF FUNDS: Date 9 Downgraded oCON Fl by authoty of date JUN 197 1001 APPROVED: APPROVED FOR RELEASE DATE:JAN 2002 1 t itre, PROSPECTUS 4.7 In the past three years of research with the drug LSD-25, we have developed reliable methods of analyzing social situations and interactions. Our progress in assessing personality types is useful in diagnosis and prediction. These methods are based on a multi- discipline assessment of personality in dynamic social adjustment under normal circumstances and under stress, i.e., drug effect, irrespective of the attributes of any specific drug. The briefest phrase to characterize our main area of study is "social personality". A laboratory of experimental social psychiatry has been established in such a way that various types of personality and many situations maybe subjected to critical study. For example, its methods Can be applied to any specific problem such as the effects of LSD or other drugs like alcohol, oil the improvement of interpersonal relations. There are two importantsteps tote taken: (1) Completing the work in progress of personality types so we can define more clearly our social personality types and relate them to (a) the more standard,. objective tests such as the Wechsler-Bellevue On which Gittinger's theory of types is based, and (b) the conventional clinical projective tests such as the Rorschach and Thematic Apper- ception Tests; (2) Trying out the utility of these tests and special interview and questionnaire methods developed in the course of our studies for predicting specifiable Change in social behavior following the ingestion of various drugs, particularly Lsp and alcohol.
