title: [Rapid prognosis of the disciplined behavior of flight cadets using projective tests].
abstract: The reliability of rapid prediction of the disciplined or undisciplined behavior of cadets using selected projective tests (modified apperception test, Rosenzweig test of picture frustration, Zondi test) was investigated. The tests were performed on 50 certified pilots and 400 cadets. By means of correlation and factor analyses the references given to the cadets by their seniors were compared with the results of the projective tests. It was found that the modified apperception test can be used to evaluate cadet's behavior within a comparatively short time. Marked extrapunitive trend combined with self-defence type of solution of the Rosenzweig test diminished the conformity of the personality and facilitated the development of conflict situations and undisciplined acts. The undisciplined cadets preferably selected pictures of seriously ill patients with epilepsy, catatonia or hysteria. These probability characteristics help to distinguish the cadets that need specific attention and supervision.
