PERSONAL BACKGROUND AND INTERGROUP COMPETITIVENESS,
Abstract
Nine quasi-T groups met in one of three intergroup competitions. Trios of T group representatives then discussed and evaluated the three competing essays produced by their respective T groups. Engineering graduates were most prone to overevaluate their own essay's technical adequacy. Business graduates were most likely to overevaluate their own group product's financial merit, and liberal arts college grades were most likely to overevaluate the human relations portion of their own group's essay. Liberal arts students generally were less competitive, regardless of the area they evaluated. (Author)
