Erroneous citation?

I tried to find the categorization of "low-scorers" in the original 1950 Adorno book (available here https://archive.org/details/dli.ernet.469826) but could not find it. The 1991 Meloen publication seem to be the origin of that categorization of low-scores but quotes the 1950 book as a source. Not sure what to do of that. Maybe it comes from an additional analysis by Meloen of the Adorno results?

@Iv: Thanks for looking into this! I think there may either be an issue with the OCR of that copy or a change in the edition. With a bit of digging, I was able to find the specific chapter that Meloen was referencing: in "Chapter XIX: Types and Syndromes" Adorno covers in sequence "rigid low scorers", "protesting low scorers", "impulsive low scorers", "easy-going low scorers" and the "genuine liberal". So these were categories coined by Adorno himself, not invented by Meloen. Although it does appear "six" was a mistake, there were actually five categories. --Grnrchst (talk) 14:42, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Iv: Checked another copy of the book, and indeed it appears that copy of it you linked is incomplete; it only includes Parts 1-3 and leaves out parts 4 and 5 (which include the chapter I mentioned). Grnrchst (talk) 14:56, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
