Abstract
In this article, Mentzer and Piker attempt to explain personality differences between inhabitants of the villages of Bang Khanmaak and Banoi. Personality characteristics were analyzed through the administration of Rorschach tests. The authors theorize that the differences are due to '...recent differential exposure of the two villages to nation-wide socio-economic developments...'.
