Abstract:
The results of the Bene Anthony Family Relations Test on 53 pairs of twins and 30 older siblings, as well as an analysis of personality inventories from their parents, are presented. It is shown that weight and birth order can affect not only personality and the way in which twins interact with each other, but can also affect family interaction. Particular attention has been given to the effect on and of the preceding sibling.
