This study initiated the development of a personality inventory to measure the resistances to contact described in the theory of Gestalt therapy as personality styles. A set of items were written based on the theoretical descriptions of six resistances: retroflection, projection, introjection, confluence, desensitization, and deflection. The item pool was reviewed by experts for completeness. Expert judges nominated a set of 50 items as most representative of the resistances (approximately 8 items per resistance) to be used as a reference set of items for analysis. A questionnaire formed out of 223 items was given to a college sample of 240 subjects who were asked to respond to a 5-point Likert-type scale on each item. Concurrent scores on Cattell's 16 Personality Factor test were also obtained for a subset of 30 subjects. The specially selected set of 50 items, plus a randomly selected set of 25 items, were factor analyzed and six factors were rotated to oblique simple structure. The remaining items of the questionnaire were correlated with the factors. Items loading (+OR-) .30 or more on a factor, together with items correlating (+OR-) .40 or more with a factor, were used to form factor-derived scales. These factor derived scales, unweighted sums of scores on the factor items, were correlated with the 16PF scores. Of the six factors, five factors accorded with the theoretical descriptions of the Gestalt resistances of retroflection, projection, desensitization, introjection, and confluence respectively. The sixth factor did not accord with any of the resistances described in the theory and none of the factors resembled the resistance style of deflection. Correlations between the factor-derived scales and 16PF scales were generally consistent with the theory, although somewhat different than had been initially expected by this researcher. Characteristics of each resistance factor and implications are discussed with particular reference to the implications for Gestalt social philosophy and practice.
