This study aimed at testing the validity of the Korean Presonality Factor Test(KPFT) standardized in Korea, which was not satisfactorily done by the time of its standardizing to help clinicians use it better in their assessment work. The Tests used in examining the constructvalidity in this study are MMPI, Ehwa Defense Mechanism Test and Stress Report Inventory. It has been turned out that in most of the scales of the KPFT the results shown in this study corresponded to those of the standardization study or those of other antecedent researches The correlations of the scales of the KPFT with MMPI came out mostly in expected direction and the correlation study with the Ehwa Defense Mechanism Test helped understanding the dynamic aspects of the scales of KPFT. The use of the Stress Reporting Test which included ratings by a psychiatrist and a psychologist enabled this study to avoid problems that arise often in the studies using only self reporting inventories Discriminance analysis using scales of KPFT classified 54.8% of schizophrenics, 53.1% of mood disorder psychoses, 34.6% of neurotics and 53.2% of normals correctly.
