The Journal of Social Psychology :An Empirical Study of the Relation between Astrological Factors and Personality
Volume 105, Issue 2, 1978, Pages 229 - 236
Abstract
This study reports a test of an astrological prediction according to which extraversion
is related to being born under the odd numbered zodiacal signs, and introversion to being born under the even numbered zodiacal signs. Also tested is the hypothesis of greater emotionality for people born under the so-called water signs. Nine hundred seventeen male adult Ss and 1407 female adult Ss were administered the Eysenck Personality Inventory, and their birthdates ascertained. Results for males and females separately and jointly support the predictions made on the basis of astrological writings at a high level of significance. Possible causes for this finding are discussed, but it is concluded that artifacts are unlikely to have produced the results obtained.
