ENGLISH ABSTRACT: There is a growing need for information on the multicultural educational situation. This has made measurement instruments which can be applied across language and cultural barriers essential. For this reason a comprehensive research project has been launched by the Department of Educational Psychology and Specialised Education at the University of Stellenbosch. Using an appropriate personality questionnaire, the project aims to determine trends in regard to the personality types of Xhosa, Afrikaans and English speaking secondary school pupils from these various communities. An important component of this project was to compare the Murphy-Meisgeier Vraelys vir Kinders (MMvK) - a new instrument in South Africa - to the Jung-Persoonlikheidsvraelys (JPV), which has been in use in South Africa since 1983 in a career counselling context. Both questionnaires are based on the typology of C.G. Jung. The aim was to determine whether the two questionnaires would yield similar results. If so, the arsenal of personality questionnaires - especially those that indicate personality type - that could be used with so-called coloured learners, would be extended. In addition, it was deemed important to collect as much information as possible about the MMvK, so that this questionnaire could be used with confidence in South Africa in the future. Furthermore, as the concept of personality type holds so many implications for education, all information regarding personality type of South African learners is regarded as important. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Daar is 'n toenemende behoefte aan inligting met betrekking tot die multikulturele onderwyssituasie. Dit het geskikte meetinstrumente wat oor taal- en kultuurgrense heen toegepas kan word, noodsaaklik gemaak. 'n Omvangryke navorsingsprojek is deur die Departement Opvoedkundige Sielkunde en Spesialiseringsonderwys aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch onderneem, waarin die tendense ten opsigte van persoonlikheidstipes by Xhosa-, Afrikaans- en Engelssprekende hoerskoolleerlinge met behulp van 'n gepaste persoonlikheidsvraelys bepaal kon word. 'n Belangrike komponent van die projek was om die Murphy-Meisgeier Vraelys vir Kinders (MMvK) - 'n nuwe instrument in Suid-Afrika - te vergelyk met die Jung-Persoonlikheidsvraelys (JPV) wat sedert 1983 in Suid-Afrika in beroepsvoorligting gebruik word. Beide vraelyste is op C. G. Jung se tipologie gegrond. Daar wou vasgestel word of die twee vraelyste eenderse resultate lewer. Indien wel, sou dit meebring dat die arsenaal persoonlikheidsvraelyste veral die wat persoonlikheidstipe aandui - wat op sogenaamde kleurlingleerders toegepas kon word, uitgebrei sou word. Dit is ook as belangrik geag om meer inligting in te win omtrent die MMvK, sodat die vraelys uiteindelik met vertroue in Suid-Afrika gebruik sou kan word. Verder, omdat die konsep van persoonlikheidstipe soveel opvoedkundige implikasies inhou, word alle inligting omtrent persoonlikheidstipe van Suid-Afrikaanse leerders as belangrik geag.
