A group of 200 subjects was divided into five groups consisting of dentist, students of the last year predoctoral dental, students of pediatric dentistry, students of dental assistants, and pediatric dentists. The groups were surveyed in order to elicit their responses to a series of ten simple line-drawn faces. Each person was asked in a questionnaire to medicate on a five-point scale the degree to which an adjective was appropriate or inappropriate for each simple line-drawn face. Twenty adjectives were repeated for the ten different faces. Means and standard deviations were calculated for all responses. Results indicate that each face yielded a unique set of appropriate adjectives as perceived by all subjects. Beyond this basic agreement, however, group differences were found in the selection of other appropriate adjectives. Based upon a random subset of responses, discriminant analysis correctly assigned group membership for 96% of the subjects. It was also found that eight of the ten faces discriminated among the groups with correct reclassification ranging from 88% to 96%.
