The hypotheses that the mobile life of the service boy deprives him of opportunities to develop his self-concept to the level of his geographically stable peers, and that the category system he uses to interpret and predict the behaviour of others will also be less developed, were examined. Two groups of 15-year-old boys, one group in an Army school in Germany, one group of geographically stable boys at school in Britain, were compared on a form of repertory grid test and some support for these hypotheses was found. A possible explanation of this conceptual impairment is that the instability of his way of life leaves the child bewildered and unable to cope with the task of making judgements about himself or others. His sources of information and instruction are too many and too often changed, and because of this he may fail to develop skill in self-assessment and the assessment of others. He may also retreat from too precise an assessment because of repeated failure in predicting the behaviour of others, and a need to defend himself against the anxiety engendered by the awareness of poor understanding and limited control. |
