Abstract	Appendix 3 to the report, Measuring Intelligence and Achievement Motivation in Surveys, describes a series of factor analyses of the achievement orientation measures, and a further analysis of strategies used in trying to interpret them. Also a tentative model for the components of achievement orientation is presented. Appendix 4 describes a Detroit survey, wherein black and white female interviewers were randomly assigned to black and white respondents of both sexes. Issues investigated include main effects and the interaction effects of interviewers' and respondents' race on measures of anxiety, achievement motivation, and intelligence. No interactions were found; rather, a pattern emerged with the black interviewers eliciting more refusals, shorter Thematic Apperception Test protocols, more positive and less negative projective achievement motivation imagery, a preference for lower risks, and higher intelligence test scores. No interviewer race differences were found on the objective achievement scales, or on anxiety. Appendix 5 presents investigations of (1) the differences between public and private responses to the Test Anxiety Questionnaire; and (2) the differences between explicit and implicit expectation settings on the subject's performance on the Digit Symbol Substitution Test. No significant differences were found in either study. Appendix 6 provides details of a study of the Picture Order Incidental Test which includes two memory tasks--"central", and "incidental". It was found that race-status groups do not differ in incidental learning.(MV)
