The aim of this study was to investigate relations between the paranoid tendency to the self perception. 219 undergraduates were asked to complete the Paranoid Scale and the Self-Rating Depression Scale. Among them, 43 subjects were selected according to the paranoia level. And then the Q-Sort task was used for measuring the self-concepts and self-discrepancies. The results of ANCOVA using the levels of depression as a covariate indicated that the paranoid group showed more negative believed perceptions of others about the self and greater discrepancies between perceptions of the actual self and the believed perceptions of others about the self than nonparanoid group. These results were discussed in terms of the clinical implications, limitations and suggestions for future study.
