[Possibilities of computer-assisted administration of the revised Freiburg Personality Inventory. 2 experimental studies].
Empirical results of two studies on the practice of computer administration of psychodiagnostic inventories are presented. Based on the "Freiburger Persönlichkeitsinventar" (FPI-R, a German multidimensional personality inventory, Fahrenberg, Hampel & Selg, 1994) two studies (total N = 600 university students) were conducted in which (1) the standard paper-pencil questionnaire was compared with a computer administrated version, and (2) the standard item arrangement was contrasted with the presentation of the items of each subscale as a block (homogeneous item blocking), which corresponds to the extraction of subscales from more extensive inventories. The results confirm low significant effects of computer administration and of item blocking as to the means, as well as no interactions with the factor "gender." The parameters of reliability increased partially under computer administration. Computer administration itself led to a higher degree of self-consciousness. The adequacy of the FPI-R, which was standardized by paper-pencil inquest, and a computer administrated version is thus demonstrated proven.
