It was previously found that the swings of the galvanometer in P. G. R. were closely associated with those words that were related to their past experiences on their present problems and conflicts, when the subjects were quietly told a story. Now two experiments have been so designed as to solve the problem of whether the galvanometer swings only in regard to words in a story given or not : first, to find the relation between the impressive words in a story read by the subject and the P. G. R. responses upon those words when they appear in a story told, secondly, to examine the P. G. R. responses upon the same words as given in different contexts. The results of the first experiment indicate that the expected P. G. R. responses were made to the impressive words and also that the responded words were related to the subjects' needs, the present problems or their characters, etc. It was found from the results of the second experiment that the P. G.R. responses were irrelevant to the same words given indifferent contexts and some swings were not associated with the important parts of the stories. The above findings point the way toward the possibility of finding a clue for the personalty diagnosis in the analysis of those words in a story told that are associated with the specific responses of P. G. R. despite of the fact that the P. G. R. responses are not always relevant to the words in a narration.
