In order to identify the need structure of the nondelinquent girl and the delinquent girl´ we have administered EPPS to 281 nondelinquent girls and 151 delinquentgirls. The need´ factor structure of two groups were extracted by the factor analysis based on the in tercorrelations among 15 need scores, In order to compare the need dynamics we have tested the mean differences of need levels among the above groups according to the need: factors, and each of 15 EPPS needs.
The main findings were as followings:
1. By the factor analysis technique we obtained 5 factors from the nondelinquent girls and 6 factors from the delinquent girls. It was found that there were 5 common factors. between two groups:named as Nurturance-Affiliation, Order-Enduranee, Indepedant Goal Achievement, Enduring Acceptance, and Abasement.
2. The differences of need factors between two groups were found in Nurturance-Affilia tion and Abasement, i.e., the delinquent group have shown negative loadings on the above, two factors.
3. In comparing the need factors of the nondelinquent girls with the need factors of the delinquent girls, the delinquent group have shown one more factor named as Order-Deference.
4. The need level of Enduring Acceptance of the nondelinquent group was higher than that of the delinquent group. But the need level of Order-Endurance of the delinquent group was higher than that of the nondelinquent group.
5. Among the EPPS needs which based on the individuals´s scores, the nondelinquent group have shown higher need levels in exhibition, intraception, dominance, change, heterosexuality, and aggression needs than the delinquent group. But Deference, order. abasement, and nurturance needs of the nondelinquent group were higher than those of the delinquent group.
