2 INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced.

11 ABSTRACT The purpose o f t h i s study was to in v e s tig a te w hether or not p r i e s t s who have resig n ed from the m in is try can be d if f e r e n tia t e d from those who rem ain w ith in i t in term s o f p e rs o n a lity v a ria b le s and p ersonenvironm ent in te r a c tio n fa c to rs as expressed in H o lla n d 's th eo ry of v o c a tio n a l ch o ice. Among H o lla n d 's b a s ic assum ptions a re the fo llo w in g : 1) members of a v o catio n have s im ila r p e r s o n a litie s ; and 2) v o c a tio n a l s a t i s f a c tio n and s t a b i l i t y depend on the congruence between o n e 's p e rs o n a lity and the environm ent (m ainly o th e r people) in which one w orks. According to H olland, most people in our c u ltu re can be c l a s s i f i e d as one of s ix dominant types ( R e a lis tic, I n t e l l e c t u a l, S o c ia l, C onventional, E n te rp ris in g, A r t i s t i c ). People p o ssess c h a r a c te r i s t ic s of a l l s ix ty p e s, but each person o p erates in such a manner as to r e f l e c t one of two o f th e se types more s tro n g ly. In a d d itio n, Holland claim s th a t th e re are s ix b a sic model environm ents th a t correspond to the p e rs o n a lity ty p es and bear th e same la b e ls. In H o lla n d 's th eo ry each model environm ent a t t r a c t s th a t person whose dominant p e rs o n a lity type is s im ila r to the type a s s o c ia te d w ith the environm ent. Congruent person-environm ent in te r a c tio n s ( i n t e r a c tio n o f people and environm ents belonging to th e same p e rs o n a lity type or environm ental model) lead to outcomes th a t are p re d ic ta b le from the knowledge of th e p e rs o n a lity types and the environm ental model. These outcomes include v o c a tio n a l choice and v o c a tio n a l vii
12 s t a b i l i t y. The c o n siste n c y and homogeneity of an environm ent (people of the same p e rs o n a lity ty p e) a f f e c t s s t a b i l i t y of v o c a tio n a l ch o ice. H olland expands th e number of c a te g o rie s in h is c l a s s i f i c a t i o n system from s ix p e r s o n a lity types to t h i r t y by coding the h ig h e st type score and the second h ig h e st type score fo r the in d iv id u a l on h is V ocational P referen ce In v en to ry (V PI). P e rs o n a lity code com binations are of two c la s s e s : 1) c o n s is te n t the h ig h e st types do not re p re se n t c o n tra d ic to ry p sy ch o lo g ical a t t r i b u t e s and promote s t a b i l i t y of vocatio n a l ch o ice; and 2) in c o n s is te n t- - th e two h ig h e st types in d ic a te contr a d ic to r y p sy ch o lo g ical a t t r i b u t e s which w ill promote v o c a tio n a l changes and c a re e r i n s t a b i l i t y. S u b jects fo r t h i s study were f i f t y p r ie s t s s t i l l a c tiv e in the m in is try and f i f t y resig n ed p r i e s t s. Assessment m easures included a b io g ra p h ic a l in v e n to ry, H o lla n d 's V ocational P referen ce In v en to ry, and the A d jectiv e Check L is t. R esu lts o f t h i s study in d ic a te d th a t w ith reg ard to demographic c h a r a c te r i s t ic s o f the sam ples, th e re were no s ig n if ic a n t d iffe re n c e s in age, fa m ily 's s o c ia l p o s itio n, number of c h ild re n in the fam ily, o rd in a l p o s itio n, age a t en tra n ce to th e sem inary, or age a t o rd in a tio n to the p rie sth o o d. A marked s im i la r i ty o f p r o f il e s on the VPI o f the a c tiv e and resig n ed p r ie s t s was found. Both groups had th e i r h ig h e st p r o f il e peak on the S o cia l type sc a le and the same tw o -d ig it h ig h -p o in t, c o n s is te n t, p e rs o n a lity com bination S o c i a l - A r t i s t i c. Thus, th e s ix p e rs o n a lity -ty p e s c a le s o f the VPI did not s ig n if i c a n tl y d i s c rim in ate between a c tiv e and resig n ed p r i e s t s. On the o th e r hand, the viii
13 fin d in g s were su p p o rtiv e of H o lla n d 's g e n era l h y p o th esis th a t members o f a v o catio n have s im ila r p e r s o n a li tie s. Furtherm ore, th e b io g ra p h ic a l d ata which showed th a t 80% o f the resig n ed p r i e s t s p re s e n tly occupy so cial-m o d el type occupations may be viewed as in d ic a tin g an " in tr a c la s s change," nam ely, th e s e le c tio n o f an o ccupation in the same g e n e ra l c la s s as the o r ig in a l ch o ice. On the A d jectiv e Check L is t s c a le s, resig n ed p r ie s t s scored s ig n if i c a n tl y h ig h er on s e lf-c o n fid e n c e, achievem ent, dominance, endurance, and o rd e r. R e su lts suggest th a t f u rth e r re se a rc h tak es in to account th e ap p aren t homogeneity of i n t e r e s t p a tte rn s o f the p rie sth o o d "environm ent" and seek the i n f l u e n t i a l v a ria b le s fo r " in tr a c la s s change" in term s o f more s p e c ific s i t u a ti o n a l and p e rso n o lo g ic a l f a c to r s.
14 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION In c re a sin g p opular and p ro fe s s io n a l a t te n ti o n i s c u rre n tly being given to th e s u b je c t o f "d ro p -o u ts" from th e ranks o f r e l i gious m in is te rs ( B a r t l e t t, 1971). This a t te n ti o n has grown out of both an e f f o r t to understand th e changing ro le o f th e m in is te r w ith in th e churches and a more g e n e ra l i n t e r e s t in th e fu n c tio n of the m in is te r in modern te c h n o lo g ic a l s o c ie ty. The problem o f m in is te r ia l re sig n e e s is p re s e n tly experienced in th e th re e m ajor f a it h s : Jew ish (G re e n fie ld, 1969); P ro te s ta n t (C o v ell, 1970; Jud e t a l., 1970; B a r t l e t t, 1969); and Roman C ath o lic (S c h a lle rt & K elle y, 1970; O 'B rien, 1969; G reeley, 1972). W ithin th e Roman C a th o lic Church, m i n is te r i a l re s ig n a tio n s have d ra m a tic a lly in c re ased sin c e th e end o f th e Second V atican C ouncil (S c h a lle rt & K elley, 1970), an assem bly o f the w o rld 's C ath o lic bishops gath ered to d isc u ss th e problem s of the Church (Abbott & G allag h er, 1966). I t is estim a te d th a t between the y ears 1964 and 1970, 2 to 4%, something lik e 15,000 p r i e s t s o f the Roman C ath o lic world c l e r g y have l e f t th e o f f i c i a l m in is try of th e Church. The percen tag e fo r th e number o f American p r i e s t s who have resig n ed is e stim ated to be 12% or more (NORC, 1971; G reeley, 1972). The phenomenon of p r ie s t s leav in g th e o f f i c i a l m in is try is
15 2 not something new in th e h is to r y o f th e Church. However, in a d d itio n to a s ig n if ic a n t q u a n tita tiv e d iffe re n c e o f p r i e s t s leav in g befo re and a f t e r the Second V atican C ouncil, th e re i s in d ic a tio n o f a q u a l i t a tiv e d iffe re n c e. Furtherm ore, the n eg ativ e b ia s toward leav in g the o f f i c i a l m in is try which was once a s ta b i liz in g fa c to r in a p r i e s t 's v o catio n are not as pow erful on th e contem porary scene. In the p a s t, the "d ro p -o u t" p r i e s t was looked upon as a d i s a f f i l i a t e, or even a " t r a i t o r " and many members o f the i n s t i t u t i o n looked upon him w ith n eg ativ e fe e lin g s (S c h a lle rt & K elley, 1970). Today, however, th e re i s a g r e a te r tendency to understand and accep t th e p erso n al fa c to rs and i n s t i t u t i o n a l d i f f i c u l t i e s which e n te r in to a p r i e s t 's d e c isio n to leave th e a c tiv e m in is try. From the s o c io lo g ic a l p o in t of view, the C ath o lic Church may be looked upon as an autonomous c o rp o rate i n s t i t u t i o n, h ie r a r c h ic a lly o rg an ized. In term s o f i t s own se lf-im a g e, th e Church sees i t s members as sh arin g c e r t a in fundam ental b e l i e f s, a r i t u a l e x p ressio n of th e se b e l ie f s, and an o b lig a tio n of ex p ressin g th e se b e lie f s and c u l t i c m a n ife s ta tio n s in th e community. Church members have v a rio u s e s ta b lis h e d r o le s. One o f th e se ro le s is th a t o f the " p r i e s t. " The o f f i c i a l p riesth o o d is p erceiv ed as c o n s is tin g o f those members who have receiv ed a r i t u a l l y co n ferred (" sa c e rd o ta l o rd in a tio n " ) permanent ro le of a u th o rity and r e s p o n s ib ility in r e l a t i o n to the body of b e lie v e r s, the l a i t y (Tageson, 1970). P r ie s ts a re n ece ssary to serve as th e manpower to m a in tain the e c c l e s i a s t i c a l s tr u c tu r e. Thus, the ro le o f the p r ie s t i s an o rg a n iz a tio n a l ro le and h is ta s k s are
16 3 re g u la te d, in a c o d ifie d and system ized way, by the Church i n s t i t u t i o n i t s e l f in th e most im portant a s p e c ts o f i t. As a r e s u l t, "the o rg a n iz a tio n does w holly absorb i t s c le rg y, even i f th e c le rg y do not w holly absorb th e o rg a n iz a tio n (Gannon, 1971, p. 7 4 )." The p rie sth o o d ro le is p erceiv ed as a fu ll- tim e o ccu p atio n. As an unpublished working paper fo r a re c e n t w orld synod of bishops s ta te d : " P r ie s tly m in is try pervades th e e n t ir e l i f e o f the p r i e s t. I t is not a tempora ry or o c c a sio n a l o ccu p a tio n." T h e re fo re, th e l i f e - s t y l e of th e p r i e s t i s g r e a tly re g u la te d, p a r t i c u l a r l y is t h i s tru e w ith reg ard to m a rriag e. There e x is ts fo r the W estern R ite o f the Roman C ath o lic Church an e c c l e s i a s t i c a l law of " o b lig a to ry c e lib a c y " which p r o h ib its a p r i e s t to m arry.

The p r i e s t l y ro le i s not liv e d in s o c ia l is o la tio n. I t s perform ance ta k es p lace in th e v o rte x of the p re v a ilin g s o c ia l and c u l tu r a l phenomena. E l l i s (1971) has d escrib ed t h i s fe a tu re fo r the American scene. One im portant s o c ia l event which has had a profound im pact on th e p riesth o o d was th e Second V atican Council (O 'B rien, 1971). In p a r t due to i t s d e lib e r a tio n s o f q u estio n s form erly consid ered c lo se d, problems concerning m a tte rs of b e l ie f and e t h ic s, e c c l e s i a s t i c a l a u th o r ity, ro le c o n f lic ts in the perform ance of the m in is try, o b lig a to ry c e lib a c y, and contem porary s o c ia l problem s have

As G reeley (1972) has p o in ted o u t: I f one is going to u n derstand the p re se n t problem s of the American p rie s th o o d, one must r e a liz e th a t i t has experienced th e v a lu e s, th e behavior p a tte r n s, th e le a d e rsh ip s ty le s, and th e g o als of th e p a s t were je ttis o n e d alm ost o v e rn ig h t.

For a com prehensive b ib lio g ra p h y o f th e se s tu d ie s, see Menges & D itte s (1965). C onsequently, the p re se n t s itu a tio n c a l ls fo r a s h if t o f focus from th e q u e stio n o f persev eran ce in the tr a in in g sta g e of th e p rie sth o o d to the q u e stio n of p ersev eran ce once th a t o ccu p a tio n a l ro le has been ach iev ed.

In a d d itio n, G reeley (1972) m entioned th a t sim ultaneous w ith the NORC re s e a rc h, a p sy ch o lo g ical study of p r ie s t s s t i l l a c tiv e in the m in is try was conducted. One in stru m en t employed was Shostrom 's (1966) P erso n al O rie n ta tio n In v en to ry (P O I). This instru m en t i s supposed to r e f l e c t an in d iv id u a l's p o s itiv e m ental h e a lth a t t r i b u t e s in term s of h u m an istic, e x i s t e n t i a l, and growth co n cep ts. A prim ary in flu e n c e on i t s c o n s tru c tio n is M aslow 's (1954) c o n c e p tu a liz a tio n of " s e l f - a c t u a l i z a t i o n." One fin d in g was th a t th e re is a s lig h t r e l a tio n sh ip between an " in n e r-d ire c te d " p e rs o n a lity score (one "guided by in te r n a l m o tiv atio n s r a th e r than e x te rn a l in flu e n c e s " ) and an i n c l i n a tio n to re s ig n from the p rie s th o o d. Thus,... i t appears th a t th e re i s a tendency fo r re sig n e e s to be h y p e ra c tu a liz e d, and fo r those who rem ain to be h y p o a c tu a liz e d. In o th e r w ords, some of those who leave the p rie sth o o d show ex ce ssiv e needs fo r independence, and some o f those who sta y show ex ce ssiv e needs fo r dependence, which su g g ests th a t some men leave because th ey are o v e ra c tu a liz e d and some men sta y because they are u n d e ra c tu a liz e d (G reeley, 1972, p. 4 3 ).

Concerning the broader i n t e r e s t s of psychology, such re se a rc h could provide d ata fo r use in the f ie l d s of s o c ia l and in d u s tr i a l psychology, fo r example in th e area of " o rg a n iz a tio n a l c lim a te " (T ag iu ri & L itw in, 1968). Again, in the area of Community Psychology i t is recognized th a t the c le rg y can perform an im portant fu n c tio n in e f f e c tin g change and in p roviding th e ra p e u tic e f f e c tiv e n e s s.

H inrichs (1970) has s ta te d th a t re se a rc h on the su b je c t of "tu rn o v er" should attem p t to d e a l w ith both in d iv id u a l d iffe re n c e fa c to rs and environm ental f e a tu r e s. This is in lin e w ith M ill e r 's (1963) th in k in g on s o c ia l in te r a c tio n and a ls o the view of Hunt (1965). P ervin (1967; P ervin & Rubin, 1967) used t h i s approach in h is stu d ie s of s tu d e n t-c o lle g e in te r a c tio n. R e su lts of a c o n sid era b le number of s tu d ie s suggest th a t p e r s o n a lity c h a r a c te r i s t ic s play an im portant ro le in c a re e r p referen c e and s t a b i l i t y (Osipow, 1968). S ig n ific a n t among the attem p ts to r e la te p e rs o n a lity to o ccu p a tio n a l p re fe re n c e is the th e o ry p o stu la te d by Holland (1966). In g e n e ra l, H olland holds th a t v o c a tio n a l choice is an e x p re s sio n of p e rs o n a lity and, th e re f o r e, i n t e r e s t in v e n to rie s can be viewed as p e rs o n a lity in v e n to rie s. Among H o lla n d 's b asic assum ptions are the follo w in g : 1) members o f a v o catio n have s im ila r p e r s o n a litie s ; and 2) v o c a tio n a l s a ti s f a c tio n and s t a b i l i t y depend on th e congruency between o n e 's p e rs o n a lity and the environm ent (composed la rg e ly of o th e r people) in which one works. According to H olland, in our c u ltu re most people can be c l a s s i f i e d as one of s ix types ( R e a lis tic, I n t e l l e c t u a l, S o c ia l, C onventional, E n te rp ris in g, and A r t i s t i c ). People p o ssess c h a ra c te r i s t i c s o f a l l six ty p e s, but each person o p e ra te s in such a manner as
22 9 to r e f l e c t one or two o f th e se o r ie n ta tio n s more stro n g ly than th e o th e rs. C onsequently, the c lo s e r an in d iv id u a l resem bles a p a r tic u la r type the more lik e ly i t is he w ill e x h ib it p e rs o n a lity c h a r a c te r i s t ic s c o n s is te n t w ith th a t type (Folsom, 1969). Holland (1970) developed an in v e n to ry, V ocational P referen ce In v en to ry (VPI) to a sse ss th ese ty p e s. He expands th e number o f c a te g o rie s in h is c l a s s i f i c a t i o n system from 6 to 30 by coding the h ig h e st type score and the second h ig h e st type score fo r each in d iv id u a l. In addition, Holland (1966) claims that there are six basic model environments that correspond to the personality types (Realistic, Intellectual, Social, Conventional, Enterprising, and Artistic). For each personality type there is a related occupational environment. A further assumption of Holland's theory is that congruent person-environment interactions (interaction of people and environments belonging to the same personality type or environmental model) lead to outcomes that are predictable from the knowledge of the personality types and the environmental models. These outcomes include vocational choice and vocational stability. P e rs o n a lity code com binations are of two c la s s e s : 1) c o n s is te n t- - th e h ig h e st types do not re p re s e n t c o n tra d ic to ry psycholo g ic a l a t t r i b u t e s and promote s t a b i l i t y of v o c a tio n a l ch o ice; and 2) in c o n s is te n t the two h ig h e st types in d ic a te c o n tra d ic to ry psycholo g ic a l a t t r i b u t e s which w ill promote v o c a tio n a l changes and c a re e r i n s t a b i l i t y. Holland p re d ic ts th a t in d iv id u a ls w ith in c o n s is te n t

Each model environm ent a t t r a c t s th a t person whose dominant type is s im ila r to the type a s s o c ia te d w ith the environm ent. The cons is te n c y and homogeneity of an environm ent a f f e c t s s t a b i l i t y of vocatio n a l ch o ice. A " c o n s is te n t" environm ent is one which has a p a tte r n th a t is p sy c h o lo g ic a lly and s o c io lo g ic a lly c o n s is te n t. The "e n v iro n m ental p a tte rn " can be assumed to be the p r o f ile of types obtained from the census of a l l types in an environm ent. Thus, th e tw o -d ig it codes considered c o n s is te n t p e rs o n a lity p a tte r n s a ls o in d ic a te cons i s t e n t environm ental p a tte r n s. H o lla n d 's (1966) re se a rc h p e rta in in g to h is th e o ry, as w e ll as th a t of o th e r in v e s tig a to rs (Osipow, 1968; Folsom, 1969; Osipow, 1969; Southworth & M orningstar, 1970; Posthuma & Novran, 1970) in d ic a te support fo r the th eo ry and i t s c o n s tru c ts. I t would appear th a t H o lla n d 's th e o ry provides a u s e fu l fram e work fo r the in v e s tig a tio n of p r i e s t l y v o c a tio n a l s t a b i l i t y. According to H o lla n d 's (1966) th eo ry the churches can be conc e p tu a liz e d as "environm ents" (see a ls o, S e lls, 1968). For him, the church would be conceived as a " s o c ia l environm ent" model type. T h e o re tic a lly d e fin e d, the " s o c ia l environm ent" type is c h a ra c te riz e d by problem s th a t re q u ire the a b i l i t y to in t e r p r e t and modify human behavior and an in t e r e s t fo r and communicating w ith o th e rs.

44 31 undertaken in th i s study c le a r ly show th a t the h ig h e st peak (Figure 1) on H o lla n d 's (1970) in v e n to ry fo r both groups, a c tiv e and resig n ed p r i e s t s, is the S o cia l p e rs o n a lity -ty p e. C onsequently, a c tiv e and resig n ed p r i e s t s do not s ig n if i c a n tl y d i f f e r on t h i s s c a le. Indeed, the results give support to Holland's (1966) general hypothesis that members of a vocation have similar personalities as measured by his inventory (Holland, 1970). For him, the "social" personality, conceptually defined, copes with his environment by selecting goals, values, and tasks in which he can use his skills with an interest in other persons in order to train or change their behavior. The "social" type is concerned with the welfare of dependent persons: the poor, uneducated, sick, unstable, young, and aged. This personality-type seeks occupational environments classified in Holland's (1966) system as the social-model environment; one of which is church-work. Biographical data on the resigned priests revealed that 40 (80%) are presently occupying positions which can be classified as social-model types (counseling, social work, etc.). For this group, Holland (1966) would label their change of occupation an "intraclass change," namely, when a person moves to an occupation in the same general class as his original choice. 2. I s th e re a s ig n if ic a n t d iffe re n c e between a c tiv e and r e signed p r i e s t s in term s of t h e i r code com binations o f p e rs o n a lity types? The r e s u lt s of th e an aly se s o f the VPI sco res (Table 2;
45 32 Table 3) undertaken in th e p re se n t in v e s tig a tio n show th a t both a c tiv e and resig n ed p r ie s t s are to be c l a s s i f i e d w ith th e tw o -d ig it high p o in t code o f 3-6 ( S o c ia l - A r t is tic ). Thus, no s ig n if ic a n t d iffe re n c e e x i s t s between a c tiv e and resig n ed p r i e s t s on th e tw o -d ig it high p o in t code com bination. This fin d in g is congruent w ith H o lla n d 's (1966) ex p erim ental c l a s s i f i c a t i o n fo r v o c a tio n a l o ccu p a tio n s. Church-work (c le rg y ) is l i s t e d as an i l l u s t r a t i o n o f a 3-6 code o ccu p atio n. Exam ination of th e a n a ly se s of th e VPI (Table 2) sco res i n d i c a te s, however, what m ight be co n sid ered a tre n d toward a s ig n if ic a n t d iffe re n c e between a c tiv e and resig n ed p r i e s t s on the A r t i s t i c sca le (p.0 7 ). A ctive p r ie s t s have a h ig h e r mean score on th e A r t i s t i c sca le than resig n ed p r ie s t s (Table 3). 3. Do a c tiv e p r i e s t s d i f f e r from resig n ed p r i e s t s in term s of g re a te r co n siste n c y of t h e i r code com binations? R esu lts show th a t both a c tiv e and re sig n ed p r i e s t s are to be c l a s s i f i e d according to th e tw o -d ig it high p o in t code system as 3-6 ( S o c ia l - A r t is tic ). For H olland (1966) c o n siste n c y o f a code is a fu n c tio n o f th e s i m i l a r i t i e s between the prim ary and secondary ty p e s. In o th e r w ords, the h ig h e st types do not re p re s e n t c o n tra d ic to ry p sy ch o lo g ical a t t r i b u t e s and promote s t a b i l i t y o f v o c a tio n a l ch o ice. The 3-6 code com bination is l i s t e d by Holland (1966) as a c o n s is te n t co d e. 4.
