Abstract
Investigated 75 college students, who were enrolled in upper level psychology classes and members of games clubs at a mid-sized midwestern university, were evaluated with the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF). Findings show no differences between heavy and light involvement gamers; both groups' scores were similar to the 16 PF standardization population.
